Benefits of technology

The described embodiments of the patent text describe a table tennis table with a release handle that can be easily grasped and used to lock and unlock the table. The handle has a pulling surface for the horizontal playing position and a pushing surface for the vertical storage position. The force applied to the handle is transferred through an inner wire to move the locking pin out of the L-shaped groove and the aperture in the L-shaped member of the underframe, thus unlocking the table tennis table. The use of a Bowden cable provides a simple and cost-effective power transmission solution. The handle is positioned on the playing surface board, making it easy for users to grasp and move the board. The table may also have two handles to provide more flexibility in unlocking the playing board.

Problems solved by technology

A disadvantage here is the complicated configuration of the power transmission from the handle turns on the arranged on the vertical struts securing means.

Abstract

A table tennis table having a locking mechanism and a release mechanism is disclosed. The locking mechanism has a release handle located on the underside of a playing surface board adjacent to a central portion of the playing end. The release handle is connected to locking pins with Bowden cables. The locking pins are biased into recesses in an under frame to lock the table tennis table in the horizontal playing position or the vertical storage position.

Description

RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C §119 to German Gebrauchmusterschrift No. DE 20 2015 100 535 U1 filed on Feb. 4, 2015 and is incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a table tennis table with a locking mechanism.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]A table tennis table of the aforementioned type is known from EP 1332695 B1. The table tennis described therein comprises two pivotable playing surface boards and a base for supporting the playing surface boards. The playing surface boards are conducted in the middle of the table tennis on the vertical struts vertically. At the bottom of each of the playing surface boards, a handle and an outgoing of this handle rack are provided. The rack is connected via gears with two outwardly extending rods which can set on the vertical struts the playing surface boards in a horizontal position and a vertical game stowed. By pulling the handle, the two o...
