Benefits of technology

[0011]The present invention has been made in consideration of the above matters, and an object of the present invention is to provide a game table for a top that can be produced with reduced material costs.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, such a structure requires a large amount of material and the material cost is increased since the peripheral portion of the field is turned down into a U-shape over the entire circumference to make the turned portion function as a leg.

Embodiment Construction

[0020]Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021]FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of a game table for tops which is being used. FIG. 2A is a perspective view only showing the game table for tops. FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view of the game table for tops cut along the line II-II of FIG. 2A.

[0022]The game table for tops 100 according to one embodiment has a shape of a square with chamfered corners in a plan view. It should be understood that the game table 100 may have a circular shape or any other shape in plan view.

[0023]The game table 100 has a circular field 10 in its central region in a plan view. The field 10 is formed of a bowl-shaped recess in which the depth increases toward the center. Thus, tops 70 readily move toward the center of the game table 100 while spinning and readily collide with each other in the center of the game table 100. As long as the field 10 is bowl-shaped on the whole, the field 10...

Abstract

A game table for a top being formed by a single sheet of synthetic resin and having upper and lower sides that are complementary to each other in depression and protrusion, and including a bowl-shaped field on which a rotating top moves. A plurality of recesses is formed at a predetermined distance on an upper surface of an inner portion of the field or a portion peripheral to the field, and walls defining the recesses protrude downward from a lower surface of the inner portion or the peripheral portion to form legs which can sit on a support.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority under 35 USC 119 of Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-029668 filed on Feb. 19, 2016, the entire disclosure of which, including the specification, claims, drawings and abstract, is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1, Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a game table for a top (spinning top) used for a top battle game, for example.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]There have been conventionally performed top battle games in each of which the win and loss are determined by making a plurality of rotating tops collide with each other.[0006]In recent years, in order to avoid dispersion of the tops and facilitate the collision of tops, dedicated game tables for tops have been used when the top battle games are performed.[0007]An example game table for atop is formed of a single PVC sheet having a bo...
