发明名称 Backboard and rim kit for wall mounting
摘要 The invention provides a backboard which is mountable on any wall surface, and which may be readily removed from the wall surface without leaving a mark or disfiguring the surface. The backboard is made of a thin, flexible sheet of material with a rear surface which firmly attaches to a wall, is held against the wall and is removable from the wall without marking the wall. A basketball rim and support is mounted on a lower position on the backboard material by a double-stick foam tape. One side of the foam tape adheres to the backboard in a pre-marked space. A vertical member of a support is attached to the other face of the foam tape, and a horizontal hoop is cantilevered from the support. A fabric net hangs down from the hoop to slow the descent of a ball which is used with the backboard. The net may be formed of lightweight flexible plastic filaments. The plastic rim and support may be molded of a high strength, lightweight reinforced plastic material. The double-stick foam tape is of a type used permanently to adhere trim signs on automobiles. The backboard is made of a flexible rollable plastic sheet material which is capable of self-sustaining on a wall, and which may be held against a wall through repeated usage over long periods of time, and which may be peeled from a wall, leaving no marks.
