OPEN FIELD GAME ARRANGEMENT INCLUDING GLOWING AND RESPONSIVE TARGETS
An open field game arrangement includes glowing targets and provides responses, such as lights and sounds, when the targets are hit.
Resistance garments
Resistance garments are disclosed. In some embodiments, the resistance garments may include a body portion, first and second leg portions, and an elastic strap assembly secured to the body portion and the first and second leg portions. The elastic strap assembly may be configured to apply (1) a first force at the wearer's hips that urges the thighs of the wearer toward the wearer's torso, and (2) a second force at the wearer's thighs that urges the thighs of the wearer toward each other. In some embodiments, the elastic band assembly may include a belt, first and second knee bands, front elastic straps in the form of an X-shape with ends that are attached to, or formed with, the belt and knee bands, and rear elastic straps in the form of an X-shape with ends that are attached to, or formed with, the belt and knee bands.
Mobility strap device
Embodiments disclosed include devices for increasing bed mobility. A mobility strap apparatus includes a bed-strap; a fastening end coupled to the bed-strap; and a hand-grip coupled to the top surface of the bed-strap. Rigid affixing of the bed-strap to a bed provides stable support to users when moving or stabilizing oneself on a bed. A mobility strap grid provides a bed-strap configured to be longitudinally aligned with a bed; a bed-strap configured to be laterally aligned with the bed, intersecting and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinally aligned bed-strap; a fastening end coupled to a bed-strap; and a hand-grip coupled to the top surface of a bed-strap.
TRAMPOLINE FRAME PADS
A trampoline frame pad system for use in conjunction with a trampoline having a jumping mat that is operably attached to a support frame. The trampoline frame pad system includes a foam core, a protective cover, a cover tightening mechanism and a primary pad attachment mechanism. The foam core has a first surface. The protective cover has an opening that is adapted to receive the foam core. The cover tightening mechanism is attached to the protective cover so that the cover tightening mechanism is capable of substantially tightening the protective cover over the first surface without the cover tightening mechanism extending over the first surface. The primary pad attachment mechanism is attached to the protective cover so that the primary pad attachment mechanism is capable of removably attaching the trampoline frame pad to the support frame.
CONTAINERS AND METHODS FOR CHARGING PHOSPHORESCENT ITEMS
An apparatus for charging phosphorescent items can include a receptacle portion configured to receive at least one phosphorescent item; a light source formed on an inner surface of the receptacle portion, and configured to emit a charging light to charge the at least one phosphorescent item to emit latent light; a power source; and a switch configured to selectively provide power to the light source. The apparatus is portable for easy transport by a person.
Golf ball and method of making same
Golf ball comprising one or more layers and/or indicia formed from a fluorescent composition comprising: a base polymer; and a colorant; wherein the colorant is a small-molecule ionic isolation lattice formed from one or more fluorescent dye and one or more cyanostar macrocycles. The one or more fluorescent dyes may include at least one dye selected from xanthenes, oxazines, styryls, cyanines, trianguleniums, or mixtures thereof. The colorant may be a dispersion of the small-molecule ionic isolation lattice in a carrier medium or a powder. In particular embodiments, at least one of the one or more layers is a cover layer and/or a coating layer.
Measurement and reconstruction of the golf launching scene in 3D
A golf launching monitoring arrangement allows equipment to be placed at a position behind the player (i.e., behind the golf ball), to measure both club and ball movement. A 3D scan of the club head before the play serves two purposes: 1) 3D registration that enables accurate measurement of the club head position and orientation for the camera system measuring the club movement from the back; 2) for reconstruction of the launching scene. With a 3D model of the club head, a simple 3D model of the golf ball and accurate measurement of their movement during the play, a full 3D golf launching scene can be reconstructed authentically. With this reconstruction, the movement of both the club head and the resulting ball movement can be replayed at any viewing angle, with any frame rate and at whatever resolution for the players or the coaches to view and analyze.
Flip Toy Assembly with Launcher Device and Projectile
A flip toy assembly provides a launcher having and a projectile that is launched and can be caught by the launcher. The launcher has an elongate handle. The handle has a top end and a bottom end, distal from the top end. A head is fixedly attached to the bottom end. A projectile has an apex having a first side and a second side. A first leg extends away from the first side of the apex and a second leg extends away from the second side of the apex. A method of playing a game with the flip toy assembly is also provided.
Sporting equipment alignment device
A golf head alignment device has a bubble float assembly having a circular rod portion having a first end and a second end, a liquid encapsulated within the circular rod portion and a bubble formed within the liquid, a first indicator presented on a left side of the rod portion, a second indicator presented on a right side of the rod portion, a central portion of the circular rod portion defined between the first indicator and the second indicator, a front side, a back side with the back side being covered with a portion of a reflective material, and a grip having a top having a cutout portion, the cutout portion for receiving the bubble float assembly therein, and a secondary alignment indicator provided in the grip with the secondary alignment indicator for centering the bubble in the central portion.
