Abstract: The invention relates to a folding ping-pong table including a support, two flat boards mounted on the support and mobile between a raised position and a lowered position, the support including a central structure and, for each flat board, two legs positioned at each end of the flat board relatively to the central structure and two braces connecting both legs to the central structure, as well as locking means and remote actuation means for simultaneous control of the locking means of a same flat board. Said table is characterized in that, for each flat board, the locking means are positioned so as to allow direct blocking of the angular position between a leg and the corresponding brace, in the raised position and in the lowered position.

Abstract: A knapsack has a bag, a strap assembly for attaching the bag to the shoulders of a user, a belt assembly for attaching the bag around the waist of a user and a fastening system for fastening the strap assembly and/or the belt assembly to the back of the bag. The fastening system has a first piece secured to the strap assembly and/or the belt assembly and a second piece secured to the back of the back. The first and second pieces co-operate with each other to enable the first and second pieces to be fastened together and pivot mutually about an axis perpendicular to the back of the bag. The fastening system has at least one elastomer element secured to one of the pieces and the other piece has a portion that causes the elastomer element to be deformed during pivoting, thereby opposing the pivotal movement.

Abstract: The knapsack of the invention comprises a one-piece shoulder-blade pad element (2) whose base for bearing against the back (13) of the knapsack (1) is constituted by a reinforcing plate which has a central zone (3) fixed to the back (13) of the knapsack in the top middle portion thereof, and two side zones (4) of oblong shape which extend the central zone (3) symmetrically both sideways and obliquely downwards. Shoulder-blade pads (8) are placed in the two side zones (4) on the reinforcing plate so as to bear against the back of the user over the shoulder blades. Shoulder straps (9) are fixed to the top edges (12) of the one-piece shoulder-blade pad element (2) in its two side zones (4).

Abstract: The table-tennis table comprises a foldable table-tennis table comprising a support and two table tops which are provided with hinged legs and are movable between a horizontal position for play and a vertical position for storage, together with positioning wheels projecting from the side edges of the two table tops, substantially vertical guiding slideways for guiding the positioning wheels, which slideways are supported by or integrated in the support, and a lock for locking each table top in a horizontal position for play, associated with an actuator accessible to the user.

Abstract: A bow comprises a body, two branches mounted on the body, and a string stretched between the two free ends of the branches. The body of the invention is made up of two distinct pieces that are fixed to each other, namely:a) a front piece (2) whose end portions (2") are designed to receive the flexible branches; andb) a back piece (3) whose front face (3a) has the same profile as the back face (2a) of the front piece (2) so that it can be applied snugly against the back face (2a), and whose back face (3b) is locally shaped to form a grip (4). In addition, the side faces of the back piece (3) are in alignment with the side faces of the front piece (2), and the front piece (2) and the rear piece (3) are made of different materials and/or have different densities.

Abstract: The fishing reel comprises a spool for winding in fishing line and a fixed support having an axis of rotation for said spool. The fixed support comprises an upright which is in the immediate vicinity of and parallel to one of the lateral cheekplates of the spool; projecting studs are disposed on the inside face of the upright in a radial distribution around the axis of rotation; the lateral cheekplate of the spool facing the upright includes a recessed annular portion serving to house the studs. One or more radially-extending blades are formed in the cheekplate and project into the recessed annular portion so that on rotation of the spool, each blade emits a characteristic clicking noise when its free end is raised by passing over a stud and falls back against the upright of the fixed support.
