[0001] 1) Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a foldable joint of a sports goal, more particularly to a foldable joint applied to a rod body of a sports goal; a retainable positioning and releasing structure is disposed through an internally and externally coaxial structure to make the fixedly connected rod body accomplish the folding and extending requirement.
[0003] 2) Description of the Prior Art
[0004] Accordingly, the ball sports requiring goal shooting for scoring includes soccer, handball, hockey, etc. Among them, soccer has become increasingly popular in the whole world. It is known that to become interested in sports needs to be cultivated from a young age and that achieves the best effect through game training. With a goal apparatus convenient for transportation, the game play won't be limited by the field site. It is believed that each parent expects to cultivate the kid's interest in sports through parent-child interaction.
[0005] A conventional goal structure is assembled by sequentially soldering rod bodies, telescoping tubes with small and larger diameters or retaining members. However, the entire structure is not foldable for storage but requires a sequential assembly and takes a considerate space without mentioning the trouble in transportation or carriage. Therefore, the ball sports requiring the conventional goal structure are usually limited by the field site.
[0006] In order to solve the abovementioned problems, the inventor of the present invention has designed a foldable joint to be applied to a rod body of a sports goal thereby providing a portable goal frame which folds for storage and convenient transportation.
[0007] The primary objective of the present invention of a foldable joint of a sports goal is to provide a foldable joint structure to be applied to a rod body of a goal thereby making the transportation of the goal apparatus more convenient and freeing the user from the limit of a field site.
[0008] The present invention of a foldable joint comprises an inner connecting rod, an outer toggle, two pivot bolts and adapters disposed at the distal ends of the rod body; wherein a slot way is disposed in the inner connecting rod for receiving and connecting with the adapter of the rod body through the pivot bolt; the outer toggle rotates about the external periphery of the inner connecting rod to clamp and release thereby controlling the folding for storage and extendable positioning of the connected rod body.
[0009] To enable a further understanding of the structural features and the technical contents of the present invention, the brief description of the drawings below is followed by the detailed description of the preferred embodiment.
