Abstract
Sports equipment include a frame with an outer telescoping member including a row of a plurality of openings along its length and a rotation-limiting slot at a first end. An inner telescoping member includes a push button that engages one of the plurality of openings of the outer telescoping member to secure the inner telescoping member to the outer telescoping member. A stub includes a pin that engages the rotation-limiting slot of the outer telescoping member to limit rotation of the outer telescoping member relative to the inner telescoping member. The outer telescoping member may rotate relative to the stub and the inner telescoping member to change a length of at least one member of the sports equipment frame.

A sports equipment frame, comprising:
- an outer telescoping member including a row of a plurality of openings along its length and a rotation-limiting slot at a first end;
- an inner telescoping member including a push button that engages one of the plurality of openings of the outer telescoping member to secure the inner telescoping member to the outer telescoping member;
- and
- a stub including a pin that engages the rotation-limiting slot of the outer telescoping member to limit rotation of the outer telescoping member relative to the inner telescoping member;
- wherein the outer telescoping member rotates relative to the stub and the inner telescoping member to change a length of at least one member of the sports equipment frame.
A sport equipment device, comprising:
- a front frame;
- a base frame coupled to the front frame;
- and
- first and second telescoping angle members, each angle member extending from the base frame to the front frame, the first and second telescoping angle members adjustable to allow angling the front frame relative to the base frame, each telescoping angle member comprising
- an outer telescoping member including a row of a plurality of openings along its length and a rotation-limiting slot at a first end,
- an inner telescoping member including a push button that engages one of the plurality of openings of the outer telescoping member to secure the inner telescoping member to the outer telescoping member, and
- a stub including a pin that engages the rotation-limiting slot of the outer telescoping member to limit rotation of the outer telescoping member relative to the inner telescoping member,
- wherein the outer telescoping member rotates relative to the stub and the inner telescoping member to change a length of the respective angle member.
