Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a competitive game device, and more particularly, to a competitive game device capable of setting games such as baseball, football, and hockey for at least one player.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Games such as baseball, football and hockey require a large number of competitors and a large playing area. However, due to space limitations and lack of competitors, it is often not possible to play the game. Pitching devices have been introduced to the market for baseball enthusiasts to eliminate the need for player fulfillment. This type of pitching device includes a frame 50 having a plurality of front vertical posts 51 and a plurality of rear transverse posts 53, as shown in FIG. Each vertical post 51 has a plurality of first sensors 52 and each lateral post 53 has a plurality of second sensors 54. A control device 60 connected to the first sensor 52 and the second sensor 54 is provided on the side of the frame 50, and has a display device 65 attached thereto. With such an arrangement, the competitor can practice pitching on the back net device. The first and second sensors 52, 54 can measure the speed and position of the ball (not shown) when the ball (not shown) passes through the first sensor 52 and reaches the second sensor 54.

[0003] Pitching devices of this kind can serve only one athlete, and over time the athlete gets tired of the competition due to the absence of an opponent and loses interest.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 To overcome this shortcoming of conventional pitching devices, the present invention contemplates providing a competitive gaming device that allows a competitor to compete with an opponent or a microprocessor controller, thereby providing a conventional gaming device. Reduce or eliminate problems.

[0005] The main objective of the present invention is to provide an improved competitive gaming device that allows a competitor to compete with an opponent or a microprocessor controller to increase the appeal and entertainment of the device. To provide.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 According to one aspect of the invention, the gaming device has a microprocessor controller that can determine whether the thrown ball is in the strike zone or not according to a pre-programmed order. Therefore, the microprocessor controller using the internally located random number table will cause a result corresponding to the condition of the ball thrown by the first player for the second player to continue the game. , Deepen the competitive relationship between competitors and make the game fans more entertained.

Embodiment

 The competitive game device according to the present invention is used, for example, in a baseball game. Referring to FIG. 1, the competitive game device of the present invention has a contact surface 10 provided with a plurality of first sensors, that is, at least three detectors 11, 12, and 13. The contact surface 10 is made of metal, plastic or cloth. The contact surface 10 can also be an invisible surface composed of a plurality of infrared sensors, light sensors or ultrasonic emitters. At least three detectors 11, 12, 13 are used to cause the microprocessor control device 20 to operate based on the position of the ball 40 and to position the thrown ball 40, as shown in FIG. You. The contact surface 10 further includes a cushion 15 provided behind the contact surface 10 so as to reduce the impact and sound when the ball 40 hits the contact surface 10, and a contact surface for assembling the game device vertically on the ground. And an outer frame 16 mounted along the edge of the surface 10.

Further, the second frame 30 used to determine the speed of the ball comprises an enclosing member 31 having a plurality of second sensors 32 separated from each other by a distance D1 smaller than the diameter of the ball, As the ball 40 passes by the second sensor, the light sensor 32, the ball 40 blocks at least one light sensor, ensuring that a signal is generated accordingly. The second frame 30 has a contact surface with a distance D2 smaller than the diameter of the ball, such that two time marks are generated by the second sensor 32 and detectors 11, 12, 13 to calculate the velocity of the ball 40. 10 away. The microprocessor controller 20 further includes a control switch 21 for determining the level of difficulty and the mode (single or double) of the game device, and a game (baseball, softball, ice hockey, And a display device 25 having a status display device 26 and a score display device 27.

Hereinafter, for better understanding of the game device according to the present invention, a baseball game will be described in order to explain the principle, operation and effect of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, in use, the microprocessor controller 20 determines a strike zone before the first player throws the ball 40, and the ball 40 is thrown and touches the contact surface. After hitting, the detectors 11, 12, 13 simultaneously calculate the exact position of the ball to determine if the ball is in the strike zone. As each detector 11, 12, 13 detects the position of the ball, the signals S1, S2, S3 detected by the detector are sent to a microprocessor controller 20 to determine the exact position of the ball. As described above, the second sensor 32 generates a first time mark signal and the detectors 11, 12, 13 generate a second time mark signal, which time mark signals Sent to microprocessor controller 20 to calculate speed. For example, after the first player throws the ball 40, the microprocessor controller 20 first determines the position of the ball. Depending on the position of the ball 40, the microprocessor controller 20 can set a state corresponding to a strike, a ball, a wild pitch, a fair ball, a home run, a fore ball, etc. for the second competitor based on the random number table. Cause on contact surface 10.

When the second player throws the ball 40, the microprocessor controller 20 detects the position of the ball and sets the microprocessor controller in a preset state based on the result of the first pitch. 20 determines the conditions for the second competitor to continue the game. For example, if the ball 40 of the second player enters the strike zone, the status display 26 indicates that the runner is at the base (first base, second base or third base) or that the batter still hits the second time. Is displayed, during which time the state on the contact surface 10 does not change.

Referring to FIG. 4, when the first player starts throwing, the detectors 11, 12, 13 and the microprocessor controller 20 determine whether the ball 40 is a strike or a ball. If the pitch is a strike, the microprocessor controller 20 will cause a corresponding condition for the second player to continue the game based on the random number table for the strike. According to the conditions caused by the random number table, such as fairballs, foul chips, bunts, etc. and displayed on the contact surface 10, the second player starts to throw the ball 40. Of course, when the first competitor throws the ball 40 out of the strike zone, the microprocessor controller 20 will display the result of, for example, a fair ball, foul chip, ball, hit batter, home run, bunt, etc. Trigger a corresponding state based on the random number table. The game proceeds completely according to the actual rules of baseball until a three-out is indicated on the status display 26. Therefore, the defense and the attack are changed, nine times are indicated on the status display device 26, and the game ends.

[0013] Therefore, the game device according to the present invention is a competitive type in which the competitors compete with each other or with the microprocessor control device 20 to improve the drawbacks of the conventional pitching device and make the game device an interesting and fun game.
