SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS

[0025] Embodiment one:

[0026] The embodiment is a kind of reversible folding mobile basketball stand, as shown in Figures 1 to 7 The small gas spring 22 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the column 2, and the other end of the small gas spring 22 is rotatably connected to the front of the base 1. The lower rear side of the column 2 is rotatably connected to the large gas spring 21, and the other end of the large gas spring 21 is rotatably connected to the rear of the base 1. The length of the large gas spring 21 is greater than the length of the small gas spring 22. One end of the upper beam folding pipe 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the column 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the backboard 101 for supporting the column 2. The front support frame 4 for supporting the column 2 is rotatably connected to the front chassis 5, and the front chassis 5 is fixedly arranged on the front edge 11 of the base 1. One end of the folding connecting pipe 7 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the front support frame 4, and the other end is rotatably connected to the middle part of the column 2.

[0027] When the basketball stand needs to be folded, the small gas spring 22 applies a force to the column 2, causing it to rotate along the rotating shaft 8. During the rotation process, the force of the large gas spring 21 acting on the column 2 gradually increases, thereby reducing the force of the person operating. When the basketball stand is folded forward, the large gas spring 21 applies a force to the column 2, causing the column 2 to rotate along the rotating shaft 8. When the column 2 reaches the vertical position, the small gas spring 21 is stressed to reduce the force of the basketball stand falling. Through this labor-saving connection design, a person can easily rotate and fold the basketball stand.

[0028] Further, the base 1 is a frame structure, including a rectangular bottom frame with a front edge 11, a rear edge 11, and side edges 13. A partition 14 is fixedly arranged on the two side edges 13 behind the front chassis 5. The lower edge and two side edges of the partition 14 are bent to form a bent part 141. A connecting plate 15 is fixedly arranged on one end of the middle part of the rear edge 12 and one end of the middle part of the bent part 141 of the lower edge of the partition 14. Above the connecting plate 15, on both sides of the lower part of the column 2, a limiting rod 16 is arranged in contact. The limiting rod 16 passes through the partition groove 142 and is flush with the partition 14. One end of the limiting rod 16 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the rear box plate 17, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper part of the front chassis 5. Between the edge 13 and the limiting rod 16, a side box outer plate 18 is arranged to match the frame structure of the base 1.

[0029] Further, the post 2 and the small air spring 22 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft 8 near the bottom of the post 2, the rotating shaft 8 is rotatably arranged on an L-shaped shaft support 9, and the "— " part of the L-shaped shaft support 9 is fixedly arranged on the connecting plate 15. When a downward force is applied to the post 2, the post 2 moves downward and forward under the action of the large air spring 21 and the small air spring 22. Due to the arrangement of the rotating shaft 8, the rotating shaft 8 applies a downward and rearward force to the post 2, which reduces the downward force of the basketball stand and prevents the post 2 from rebounding during folding.

[0030] Further preferably, a front wheel assembly 6 is arranged between the front chassis 5 and the partition plate 14, including a top plate 61 connected with the limiting rod 16, an H-shaped support 62 below the top plate, a support plate 63 fixedly connected with the H-shaped support 62, and a wheel 65 fixedly connected with the support plate 63 through a wheel connecting plate 64, as shown in the figure. Figure 5 When the basketball stand needs to be folded and moved to other places, the ground anchor 24 is adjusted away from the ground, and the basketball stand can be moved by the wheel assembly and the wheels arranged at the rear of the base.

[0031] Further preferably, U-shaped connecting grooves 51 are fixedly arranged at the top of the front chassis 5, and the two support legs 41 of the front support frame 4 are rotatably connected in the U-shaped connecting grooves 51 through double-headed bolts. Limiting blocks 42 are arranged at the top of the two sides of the front support frame 4 to limit the left and right displacement of the post 2, which makes the front support frame 4 more stable.

[0032] A buffer pad 20 is fixedly arranged between the two limiting rods 16 at the back of the post 2, which plays a buffering and protecting role for the base frame structure when the post 2 is folded. A handle 23 is arranged at the middle and upper part of the post 2 for pulling the basketball stand to fold, which is convenient for folding and pulling.

[0033] Embodiment two:

[0034] This embodiment is an improvement of embodiment one, which is about the connection relationship between the upper beam turning pipe 32 and the post 2. V-shaped bent plates 31 are arranged at the connection part of the upper beam turning pipe 32 and the post 2. The vertical parts 311 of the V-shaped bent plates are fixedly connected on both sides of the upper end of the post 2 through bolts. The upper beam turning pipe 32 is rotatably connected between the horizontal parts 312 of the two V-shaped bent plates 31. The upper beam turning pipe 32 is fixedly and matchingly connected with the post 2 through the connecting bottom plate 321 arranged at the bottom. The arrangement of the V-shaped bent plates 31 can realize the folding of the upper beam turning pipe 32. When the basketball stand needs to be folded, the folded connecting pipe 7 drives the backboard 7 to fold to one side of the post 2, further reducing the space occupation.

[0035] Example 3:

[0036] This embodiment is an improvement on embodiment one. Based on the above embodiment, the front base frame 5 and the front support frame 4 are provided with a protective sleeve 19. The protective sleeve 19 is a split type, with the upper part fixedly connected to the front support frame 4 and the lower part fixedly connected to the front base frame 5. The upper and lower parts of the protective sleeve 19 are in contact with each other.

[0037] Example 4:

[0038] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment is an improvement on the backboard 101, such as... Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the backboard frame 103 has a U-shaped reinforcing bracket at its lower part and a connecting square plate 105 at its lower center. The upper beam flip tube 32 is fixedly connected to the backboard 101 via the connecting square plate 105. A support frame is also provided between the backboard 101 and the upper beam flip tube 32 to further reinforce the backboard 101. The support frame includes an upper right support 106 and an upper left support 107. One end of the upper right support 106 is fixedly connected to the upper right part of the backboard frame 103, and the other end is fixedly connected to the end of the upper beam flip tube 32 near the column 2. One end of the upper left support 107 is fixedly connected to the upper left part of the backboard frame 103, and the other end is fixedly connected to the end of the upper beam flip tube 32 near the column 2.

[0039] Example 5:

[0040] This embodiment is a flipping mechanism based on a flip-foldable mobile basketball hoop, including a column 2, an atmospheric spring 21, a small gas spring 22, and a folding connecting tube 7. The folding connecting tube 7 is rotatably connected to the middle of the column 2. One end of the atmospheric spring 21 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the column 2 near the bottom. One end of the small gas spring 22 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the column 2. The folding connecting tube 7 is rotatably connected to the middle of the column 2. The folding connecting tube 7 and the atmospheric spring 21 are located on the same side or different sides of the column 2.
