Description

The invention relates to a dart device with a lower part, which Has actuation buttons, and with an upper part, which Display devices for displaying data on the game status and a rear wall with one arranged on the latter Has dartboard.

DE 43 01 955 C1 discloses a dart device with a lower part known that a foot and a body with a desk and with Has actuation buttons, and with an upper part, which on the upper End of a corpus with display devices for displaying data a game wall with one over the score and under the body Dart board and with other display devices for displaying Has data about the score.

DE 42 33 262 A1 describes a darts device that a Bottom part and a top part that swivels backwards are interconnected.

The dart device described in US 48 81 744 also exists from a lower part and an upper part, which are detachable, but in remaining fixed and not pivotable with each other are connected.  

From US 38 36 148 is a darter with a rotatable Known dartboard. In addition, a drive is in US 17 81 463 described a dart board via a gearbox.

All the darts described above have in common that the Dartboard is fixed in the game wall, so it is not rotatable. As a result, playing on the darts device with a certain one Distance between the player and the dart board a certain Difficulty does not exceed.

The invention is based on the object, a darts device tend to create the type mentioned, the level of difficulty in Playing on darts can be increased.

To solve this problem, the invention provides that the dartboard of the darts is rotatably mounted on the back wall of the darts one firmly connected to it Hard disk is provided on which a rotating plate on a shaft is rotatably arranged on a ball bearing and that the Hard disk a plurality of circularly arranged on the hard disk arranged electrical slideways and the turntable speaking variety of the slideways opposite has arranged electrical grinding pins, the grinding pins the rotating plate against the electrical slideways of the hard disk contact electrically conductive and on this electrically conductive grinding when the turntable is rotating.

In this way you get to a darts device that introductively ge named type that fulfills the aforementioned task. So it's with the darts device designed according to the invention is possible on the To play darts with different levels of difficulty, even in rooms where there is only a relatively small one Distance between player and dart board can be maintained.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the dart device can look like this be formed that the dartboard motor, especially immit driven directly via a motor or indirectly via a transmission  is. - So the dart board can either directly over egg NEN engine comparatively quickly or via a gearbox rela tiv slowly rotated.

There is also the possibility that the dart board rotates freely movably mounted and manually rotated. - In order to it is possible to start the dart board manually and let it flow to a standstill.

It is advisable to use all grinding pins on the rotary plate Conductor wire electrically connected to the hit matrix, whereby from the hard drive leads to the central control unit (CPU) are.

With the rotary plate, a support plate and a support ring can be firmly connected, wherein between the support plate and the support ring the dartboard and between the dartboard and the carrier plate a rubber mat and a hit die ( 31 ) are arranged.

The invention is described below with reference to a drawing illustrated embodiment of the closer explained. It shows:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the darts and

Fig. 2 shows a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1.

The Dartgerät shown in Fig. 1 consists of a lower part 1 and an upper part 2. The lower part 1 has a body 3 with buttons 4 , 6 for operating the dart device. The body 3 is located between a left side cheek 7 and a right side cheek 8 . At the lower end of the lower part 1 there is the floor 9 , a space 12 open to the front being formed between a floor plate 10 and the lower end 11 of the inner body 3 .

The upper part 2 is placed on the two upwardly oriented end faces 13 , 14 of the side cheeks 7 , 8 . The upper part 2 has a left side cheek 15 and a right side cheek 16 , which are at the same distance from one another as the side cheeks 7 and 8 of the lower part 1 . The two side cheeks 15 and 16 stand with their downwardly oriented end faces 17 and 18 on the end faces 13 and 14 of the side cheeks 7 and 8 of the lower part 1 .

Between the two side walls 15 and 16 , the rear wall 19 of the upper part 2 is arranged, on the front of which a hard disk 20 is fixedly attached by means of several screws 21 , 22 .

At the upper end of the dart device, an inner body 23 with display devices 24 , 25 is provided for displaying the score.

A rotary plate 26 is provided at a distance from the hard disk 20 , to which a carrier plate 29 and a ring 30 are fastened by means of screws 27 , 28 . A hit die 31 , a rubber mat 32 and the dart board 33 are provided between the carrier plate 29 and the ring 30 , the dart board being divided into a plurality of hit segments 34 .

On a central axis 35 , which ends behind the center of the porthole 36 , a shaft 37 is provided, which is fixedly mounted in the hard disk 20 and on which the rotary plate 26 is rotatably mounted.

A circumferential groove 38 is provided in the outer region of the plate 20 . Likewise, the circumferential groove 38 is arranged opposite in the rotary plate 26, a circumferential groove 39 , wherein in the two grooves 38 , 39 balls 40 are mounted, which together with the grooves 38 and 39 form a ball bearing.

On the front 41 of the hard disk 20 , electrical sliding tracks 42 are provided, which are arranged in a circle around the shaft 37 as the center. On the back 43 of the rotary plate 26 , the number of grinding tracks 42 corresponding electrical grinding pins 44 are provided, which are resilient against the sliding tracks 42 .

The grinding pins 44 are connected to the hit matrix 31 via stranded wires 45 . In addition, starting from the hard disk 20 , an electrical connection 46 is made to the central control unit of the CPU.

If the rotatable part, namely the rotary plate 26 , the support plate 29 , the ring 30 , the hit die 31 , the rubber mat 32 and the dart board 33 are driven by a drive motor not shown in the drawing, the grinding pins 44 grind on the sliding tracks 42nd . If an arrow hits a certain hit segment 34 , a certain contact is thereby closed and the signal caused by the closing of the contact is given via the conductor 45 and the associated grinding pin 44 and transmitted to the opposite sliding track 42 and via line 46 to the central control unit, which causes the necessary displays on the dart device.
