摘要： A portable basketball system may include a basketball goal and a support structure that is sized and configured to support the basketball goal above a support surface. The basketball system may also include one or more feet that are sized and configured to engage a support surface. The feet may be movable among a plurality of positions to facilitate, for example, leveling the basketball system, adjusting the height of the basketball system and/or holding the basketball system in a generally fixed location. In addition, the basketball system may include a support structure and the support structure may include a rear support member including a lower end connected to a rear portion of the base, a first front support member including a lower end connected to a front portion of the base and a second front support member including a lower end connected to the front portion of the base. If desired, the rear support member, the first front support member and the second front support member of the support structure may be disposed in a generally tripod-shaped configuration.

摘要： An end cap for a structure such as a table leg is disclosed. The end cap may include a retention assembly with an elongated body and a head. The elongated body may be disposed inside an opening in the table leg and the head may be disposed outside the opening in the table leg. The end cap may also include an annular member and at least a portion of the table leg may be disposed inside the annular member. The annular member may also include a lip and the lip is preferably disposed between an end of the table leg and the head of the retention assembly to limit axial movement of the annular member relative to the table leg. Advantageously, because the annular portion of the end cap may rotate relative to the table leg, it may allow the table to be easily moved.

摘要： A basketball backboard may include one or more weights disposed proximate the perimeter of the backboard in order to enhance the rebounding characteristics of the backboard. In particular, a first weight may be positioned proximate a first side of the backboard and a second weight may be positioned proximate a second side of the backboard in order to enhance the rebounding characteristics of the backboard. Advantageously, the weights may be positioned internally within the backboard or the weights may be positioned externally to the backboard. In addition, the weights may be selectively or permanently attached to the backboard, and the weights may also be sized and configured to increase the rigidity of the basketball backboard.

摘要： A trailer may be purchased by a consumer from a store and the trailer may be quickly, easily and readily towed away from the store. In particular, the trailer may be essentially or completely ready to be towed away from the store and the trailer may require no or virtually no assembly. For example, a towing arm may be quickly and easily moved from the storage position to the use position. Advantageously, because the towing arm may be connected by pins to the trailer, no tools may be required to position the arm in the use position. In addition, because electrical wiring may be disposed within the arm and the arm may be simply moved forwardly when the trailer is ready to be towed, the lights for the trailer may be functional.

摘要翻译： 拖车可以由消费者从商店购买，并且拖车可以快速，容易地并且容易地从商店拖走。 特别地，拖车可以基本上或完全准备好从商店拖走，并且拖车可能不需要或几乎不需要组装。 例如，牵引臂可以快速且容易地从存储位置移动到使用位置。 有利地，因为牵引臂可以通过销连接到拖车，所以不需要工具来将臂定位在使用位置。 此外，因为电线可以设置在臂内，并且当拖车准备被拖曳时，臂可以简单地向前移动，所以拖车的灯可以是功能的。
