Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pitching devices, and more particularly to a foldable automatic scoring rugby pitching device. Background Technology

[0002] In today's fast-paced society, people face immense work pressure and should therefore dedicate their leisure time and after-get off work activities to relaxation and recreation. However, most office workers spend their days busy in the office, and their leisure time is confined to indoor spaces, resulting in a severe lack of opportunities for outdoor activities in their daily lives.

[0003] Among outdoor sports, people especially love ball sports such as basketball, baseball, rugby, and soccer. However, there are certain requirements for the venue when practicing shooting in these sports. Under normal circumstances, it is not possible to practice shooting in these sports indoors, especially rugby. Therefore, to meet the needs of indoor shooting practice, shooting devices are usually used.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, existing throwing devices are not suitable for detailed statistics and scoring of throwing practice in ball sports such as rugby. They can only rely on senses to judge, which often makes it difficult to distinguish where the ball is thrown or whether it is a good or bad throw, thus affecting the effectiveness of throwing practice. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to accurately score the location of the thrown ball and improve the effectiveness of throwing practice, this application provides a foldable automatic scoring rugby throwing device.

[0006] The foldable automatic scoring rugby ball-throwing device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A foldable automatic scoring rugby pitching device includes a pitching stand and a scoring mechanism. The scoring mechanism includes a goal-scoring component and a scoring assembly. The goal-scoring component includes a goal-scoring plate disposed on the pitching stand and having multiple through-holes. The scoring assembly includes a scoring circuit board with multiple scoring surfaces, each of which is directly opposite to a goal-scoring hole. When the ball strikes any of the scoring surfaces, the scoring circuit board scores the ball.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when users practice or play ball-throwing games indoors, they throw balls such as rugby balls at the goal board. When the ball passes through the goal hole and hits the scoring surface corresponding to the goal hole, the scoring circuit board scores the points. The scoring circuit board scores different points when the rugby ball hits different scoring surfaces, allowing users to intuitively judge the quality of the throw based on the different scores recorded by the scoring circuit board, thereby improving the effectiveness of ball-throwing practice. In addition, when the ball such as rugby ball directly hits the goal board, the scoring circuit board does not score, which improves the problem that existing ball-throwing devices are not easy to perform detailed statistics and scoring for ball-throwing practice, and can only rely on feeling to judge, often making it difficult to distinguish where the ball was thrown or whether it was a good or bad throw, thus affecting the effectiveness of ball-throwing practice.

[0009] Optionally, each of the said goal holes has a different diameter, so that the difficulty of scoring through each goal hole is different.

[0010] Optionally, the goal assembly further includes a plurality of first connecting rods and a plurality of first rebound springs. Each of the first connecting rods is fixedly connected to the pitching rack. The goal plate has a plurality of through-hole first connecting holes. When the goal plate is set on the pitching rack, each of the first connecting rods passes through each of the first connecting holes. The goal plate can move along the length of the first connecting rod.

[0011] Each of the first connecting rods passes through each of the first rebound springs, one end of each of the first rebound springs abuts against the ball-throwing frame, and the other end of each of the first rebound springs abuts against the ball-throwing plate.

[0012] Optionally, the scoring assembly further includes a plurality of second connecting rods and a plurality of second rebound springs. Each of the second connecting rods is fixedly connected to the pitching rack. The scoring circuit board has a plurality of through-hole second connecting holes. When the scoring circuit board is installed on the pitching rack, each of the second connecting rods passes through each of the second connecting holes. The scoring circuit board can move along the length of the second connecting rod.

[0013] Each of the second connecting rods passes through each of the second rebound springs. One end of each of the second rebound springs abuts against the ball-throwing frame, and the other end of each of the second rebound springs abuts against the scoring circuit board.

[0014] Optionally, the pitching rack includes a frame, a folding part, and a support part. The folding part is rotatably connected to the frame, and the support part is rotatably connected to the folding part. When the pitching rack is stored, the folding part rotates toward the frame and the support part rotates toward the folding part.

[0015] Optionally, one or more pneumatic rods are provided between the frame and the folding part. One end of the pneumatic rod is rotatably connected to the frame and the other end is rotatably connected to the folding part. When the ball-throwing frame is unfolded, the pneumatic rod pushes the folding part to rotate rapidly away from the frame.

[0016] Optionally, the scoring circuit board includes a main control circuit, a digital tube driving circuit, and a display circuit; the display circuit includes a first scoring digital tube circuit, a second scoring digital tube circuit, a time digital tube circuit, a first LED circuit, a second LED circuit, and a third LED circuit.

[0017] The main control circuit is connected to the digital tube driving circuit, the first LED circuit, the second LED circuit, and the third LED circuit, respectively. The digital tube driving circuit is connected to the first scoring digital tube circuit, the second scoring digital tube circuit, and the time digital tube circuit, respectively.

[0018] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0019] When users practice or play ball-throwing games indoors, they throw balls such as rugby balls at the goal board. When the ball passes through the goal hole and hits the corresponding scoring surface, the scoring circuit board scores the ball. The score is different depending on which scoring surface the ball hits, allowing users to intuitively judge the quality of their throw based on the score. This improves the effectiveness of their throwing practice. Furthermore, when a ball like a rugby ball directly hits the goal board, the scoring circuit board does not score. This addresses the problem of existing throwing devices that struggle to provide detailed statistics and scoring for ball sports like rugby, relying solely on sensory judgment. This often makes it difficult to discern the ball's location or whether a throw is good or bad, thus affecting the effectiveness of the throwing practice. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0042] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-12 This application will be described in further detail.

[0043] This application discloses a foldable automatic scoring rugby ball-throwing device. (See also...) Figure 1 A foldable automatic scoring rugby pitching device includes a pitching rack 1 and a scoring mechanism 2, which is disposed on the pitching rack 1 and used to calculate the pitching score.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The pitching rack 1 includes a frame 11, a folding section 12, and a support section 13. Two casters 111 are fixedly mounted on the bottom of the frame 11 to facilitate movement. The folding section 12 is rotatably connected to one side of the frame 11, and the support section 13 is rotatably connected to the folding section 12. When the pitching rack 1 is unfolded, the folding section 12 rotates away from the frame 11 until it is perpendicular to the frame 11. The support section 13 rotates away from the folding section 12 until it supports the folding section 12. The frame 11 has a through-hole 112 for the pin. A fixing pin 1121 is inserted through the hole 112. When the pitching rack 1 is unfolded, the fixing pin 1121 is inserted through the pin hole 112, so that the folding part 12 is not easy to rotate towards the frame part 11. When the pitching rack 1 is stored, the fixing pin 1121 is disengaged from the pin hole 112, and the folding part 12 rotates towards the frame part 11 until it abuts against one side of the frame part 11 and is fixed to the frame part 11. The support part 13 rotates towards the folding part 12 until the support part 13 abuts against the folding part 12, so that when the pitching rack 1 is folded and stored, both the folding part 12 and the support part 13 are folded and stored into the frame part 11.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3Two pneumatic rods 14 are provided between the frame part 11 and the folding part 12. The two pneumatic rods 14 are located on both sides of the folding part 12. One end of the two pneumatic rods 14 is rotatably connected to both sides of the frame part 11, and the other end of the two pneumatic rods 14 is rotatably connected to both sides of the folding part 12. When the ball-throwing frame 1 is unfolded, the two pneumatic rods 14 push the folding part 12 to rotate rapidly away from the frame part 11.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The frame part 11 includes two frame sides 113 and multiple frame rods 114. Each frame rod 114 is located between the two frame sides 113. Both ends of each frame rod 114 are fixedly connected to the two frame sides 113, thereby making the two frame sides 113 fixedly connected. The straight distance between the two frame sides 113 gradually decreases from the side closer to the folding part 12 to the side farther away from the folding part 12.

[0047] Reference Figures 4 to 6 The scoring mechanism 2 includes a goal-scoring assembly 21, which includes multiple first connecting rods 211, a goal-scoring plate 212, and multiple first rebound springs 213. Each first connecting rod 211 is fixedly connected to the pitching rack 1. The goal-scoring plate 212 has multiple through-holes 2121. When the goal-scoring plate 212 is set on the pitching rack 1, each first connecting rod 211 passes through each first connecting hole 2121. The goal-scoring plate 212 can move along the length of the first connecting rods 211. Each first connecting rod 211 passes through each first rebound spring 213. One end of each first rebound spring 213 abuts against the pitching rack 1, and the other end of each first rebound spring 213 abuts against the goal-scoring plate 212. The goal-scoring plate 212 has multiple through-holes 2122, each with a different diameter, so that the difficulty of scoring through each hole 2122 is different.

[0048] Reference Figures 7 to 9 The scoring mechanism 2 also includes a scoring component 22, which includes multiple second connecting rods 221, a scoring circuit board 222, and multiple second rebound springs 223. Each second connecting rod 221 is fixedly connected to the pitching rack 1. The scoring circuit board 222 has multiple through-holes 2221. When the scoring circuit board 222 is installed on the pitching rack 1, each second connecting rod 221 passes through each second connecting hole 2221. The scoring circuit board 222 can move along the length of the second connecting rod 221. Each second connecting rod 221 passes through each second rebound spring 223. One end of each second rebound spring 223 abuts against the pitching rack 1, and the other end of each second rebound spring 223 abuts against the scoring circuit board 222.

[0049] Reference Figures 5 to 9The scoring circuit board 222 has multiple scoring surfaces 2222 on its surface. Each scoring surface 2222 is directly opposite to each goal hole 2122. When the ball hits any scoring surface 2222, the scoring circuit board 222 scores. The goal assembly 21 also includes multiple limiting cylinders 214. Each limiting cylinder 214 is located between the goal plate 212 and the scoring circuit board 222. One end of each limiting cylinder 214 is fixedly connected to the goal plate 212, and each limiting cylinder 214 is coaxially arranged with each goal hole 2122. This ensures that when the rugby ball passes through any goal hole 2122, it can only hit the scoring surface 2222 directly opposite the goal hole 2122, thus making the scoring circuit board 222 accurate.

[0050] Reference Figure 10 The scoring circuit board 222 includes two carbon film layers 2223, a partition layer 2224, a base plate layer 2225, and a junction box 2226. The partition layer 2224 is located between the two carbon film layers 2223, and both sides of the partition layer 2224 are fixedly connected to the two carbon film layers 2223 respectively. The base plate layer 2225 is located on the side of one carbon film layer 2223 away from the partition layer 2224 and is fixedly connected to the carbon film layer 2223. The junction box 2226 is fixedly disposed on the side of the base plate layer 2225 away from the carbon film layer.

[0051] Reference Figure 11 and Figure 12 The scoring mechanism 2 also includes multiple infrared sensors 23, a buffer plate 24, and an inclined plate 25. Each infrared sensor 23 is fixedly installed on the pitching rack 1, and each infrared sensor 23 is arranged in pairs facing each other, located at the bottom between the scoring circuit board 222 and the goal plate 212, so as to re-identify and confirm the ball entering between the scoring circuit board 222 and the goal plate 212, thereby reducing scoring errors. The buffer plate 24 is fixedly installed on the pitching rack 1 and located at the bottom between the scoring circuit board 222 and the goal plate 212, so as to buffer the falling ball when it enters between the scoring circuit board 222 and the goal plate 212. The inclined plate 25 is fixedly installed on the folding part 12, so that when the ball falls to the bottom of the pitching rack 1, the ball returns to the user's hand along the inclined plate 25, thereby avoiding the trouble of picking up the ball.

[0052] Reference Figures 13 to 21 This application also provides the circuit principle of the scoring circuit board 222. The scoring circuit board 222 includes a main control circuit 31, a digital tube driving circuit 32, and a display circuit. The display circuit includes a first scoring digital tube circuit 331, a second scoring digital tube circuit 332, a time digital tube circuit 333, a first LED circuit 334, a second LED circuit 335, and a third LED circuit 336.

[0053] The main control circuit 31 is connected to the first LED circuit 334, the second LED circuit 335, and the third LED circuit 336 respectively to drive them to emit light. The main control circuit 31 is also connected to the digital tube driver circuit 32 to provide TM1640CTR1 driving signals to the digital tube driver circuit 32. The digital tube driver circuit 32 is connected to the first scoring digital tube circuit 331, the second scoring digital tube circuit 332, and the time digital tube circuit 333 respectively, and drives them to display the results under the control of the main control circuit 31. For the specific connection relationships of each circuit, please refer to [reference needed]. Figures 13 to 20 The circuit schematic shown will not be described in detail here.

[0054] In this application, scores can be recorded for two pitchers. A first scoring digital tube circuit 331 displays the score of the first pitcher, a second scoring digital tube circuit 332 displays the score of the second pitcher, and a time digital tube circuit 333 displays the pitching time. A first LED circuit 334 displays the scoring status of the first pitcher; that is, when the first pitcher scores, the first LED circuit 334 lights up. A second LED circuit 335 displays the scoring status of the second pitcher; that is, when the second pitcher scores, the second LED circuit 335 lights up.

[0055] The implementation principle of the foldable automatic scoring rugby throwing device in this application embodiment is as follows: When a user practices throwing indoors or plays throwing games, they throw rugby balls or other balls towards the goal board 212. When the rugby ball or other ball passes through the goal hole 2122 and hits the scoring surface 2222 corresponding to the goal hole 2122, the scoring circuit board 222 records the score. When the rugby ball hits different scoring surfaces 2222, the scoring circuit board 222 records different scores, so that the user can intuitively judge the quality of the thrown ball by the different scores recorded by the scoring circuit board 222, thereby improving the throwing practice effect. In addition, when the rugby ball or other ball directly hits the goal board 212, the scoring circuit board 222 does not record the score. This improves the problem that existing throwing devices are not easy to perform detailed statistics and scoring for throwing practice of rugby balls or other ball sports. They can only judge by feeling, and it is often difficult to distinguish where the ball is thrown or whether it is a good ball or a bad ball, thus affecting the throwing practice effect.

[0056] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
