Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a goalpost structure installed in sports facilities, particularly in small stadiums such as futsal courts and soccer fields, and,

[0002] More specifically, to prevent the risk of the goalpost tipping over and to minimize user injury in the event of a tipping over

[0003] This invention relates to a safety goal structure comprising a load-adjustable base structure and a shock-absorbing protective panel. Background Technology

[0004] Conventional small soccer goals are mainly made of aluminum, synthetic resin, or lightweight metal, and while they have the advantage of being easy to move,

[0005] It has a structural vulnerability that allows it to be easily toppled by external factors such as hanging, collision, and strong winds.

[0006] In particular, if the goalpost falls over while elementary school students or adolescents are hanging from the crossbar, direct impact to vital body parts such as the head and chest can occur, potentially leading to serious safety accidents.

[0007] In existing products, attempts were made to secure them using fixing pins, sandbags, floor anchors, etc., but

[0008] It is difficult to satisfy both mobility and safety simultaneously, and the risk of accidents still exists if maintenance is poor.

[0009] Therefore, the present invention aims to secure a safety structure that prevents the overturning itself and mitigates impact even when it occurs. The problem to be solved

[0010] The main objective of the present invention is as follows.

[0011] First, it provides a load-regulating base structure that can structurally prevent the risk of the goalpost tipping over.

[0012] Second, it ensures safety by absorbing and mitigating the impact applied to the user even in situations where the goalpost tipes over.

[0013] Third, a goalpost structure capable of providing both mobility and ease of installation is realized. means of solving the problem

[0014] To achieve the above objective, the present invention includes the following technical configuration.

[0015] 1. Anti-tipping load-adjustable base

[0016] · A load-adjusting base integrated with or coupled to the lower frame of the goal shifts the center of gravity of the goal downward by inserting or filling it with water, sand, or concrete blocks, etc., and

[0017] The above base is integrated with the frame or connected modularly, and is configured with a structure that allows for weight adjustment at the installation site.

[0018] 2. Shock-absorbing protective panel

[0019] Shock-absorbing panels are attached to the outer or front surfaces of the crossbar and side posts of the goal, and

[0020] · The above panel is composed of expanded polyurethane, EVA foam, high-elasticity synthetic rubber, etc., to mitigate the impact of collision with the human body during a fall.

[0021] 3. Automatic lifting wheel structure for mobile goalposts

[0022] · Wheels and an automatic switching device are installed at the bottom of the goalpost, and during use, the wheels are retracted into the goalpost to make contact with the ground,

[0023] · When moving, the wheels are lowered by lifting or operating the handle, allowing for easy movement.

[0024] 4. Conductivity Detection and Warning System

[0025] · It may include an IoT module that incorporates a lightweight sensor and warning circuit to provide an audible or visual warning or a wireless notification when the goalpost tilts beyond a certain angle. Effects of the invention

[0026] 1. Anti-conduction effect

[0027] · Due to the downward shift of the center of gravity via the load-adjusting base, the goalpost does not easily tip over even under external forces such as normal hanging, collisions, or wind.

[0028] 2. Prevention of User Injuries

[0029] · The shock-absorbing panel significantly reduces the impact on the human body even when the goalpost falls, ensuring the safety of children and adolescents.

[0030] 3. Improved ease of installation and mobility

[0031] · The automatic lifting structure allows for installation and storage without the need for separate tools, and makes maintenance easy.

[0032] 4. Potential for Smart Safety Management

[0033] · Enhances accident prevention and management efficiency of sports facilities by transmitting danger signals to facility managers through a warning system. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0034] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention,

[0035] The goalpost frame is made of aluminum or steel alloy, and load-adjusting base modules are attached to both sides of the lower frame.

[0036] · The load-adjusting base module includes a chamber capable of injecting a certain volume (equivalent to approximately 15 to 30 kg) of sand or water inside a polycarbonate shell, and

[0037] · It is designed so that the injection amount can be adjusted depending on the installation location.

[0038] · The base can be easily mounted to the goal frame by bolting or sliding into the groove.

[0039] Shock-absorbing panels approximately 20 to 50 mm thick are secured to the goalposts and crossbars via Velcro, rubber straps, or rivets, and

[0040] The panel skin is made of PVC or nylon, offering excellent water resistance and abrasion resistance.

[0041] In the case of the mobile goal, it is equipped with an automatic switching wheel module along with a foldable support, and

[0042] The wheels are designed to lower when moving and to rise when installing so that they are in complete contact with the floor surface.

[0043] According to an embodiment, a gyroscope sensor or a horizontal angle sensor is inserted inside the crossbar, and when the goalpost is tilted by approximately 10° or more

[0044] The built-in MCU circuit can output an LED or warning sound, or wirelessly transmit to the manager app.

[0045] This structure can be installed in various locations such as indoor futsal courts, outdoor sports fields, and school gymnasiums, and

[0046] The safety level of the facility can be dramatically improved.

Claims

Claim 1 A safety-type futsal goal structure comprising a load-adjusting base installed at the bottom of the goal frame, wherein the load-adjusting base injects a filler material into the interior to shift the center of gravity of the goal downward and performs a function to prevent the goal from tipping over. Claim 2 A safety-type futsal goal structure according to claim 1, wherein a protective panel made of a shock-absorbing material is attached to the outside of the crossbar and side post of the goal, and the protective panel mitigates the impact caused by a collision with a user in the event of a fall.
