  • Publication number: 20180099193
    Abstract: A portable basketball hoop has a backboard, a rim, and a positioning structure. The backboard has a lower portion foldable and rotatable connected to the rim. The backboard has a fixing apparatus deposited on a rear side of the backboard to securely connect to a fixing object. The positioning structure is deposited at a connecting position between the backboard and the rim to provide a positioning effect to the backboard and the rim when the rim is rotated for an angle of 90 degrees relative to the backboard. The rim will not separate from the backboard when a basketball pounds the rim, and this is easy in use and provides a stabilizing effect. When a user needs to carry the portable basketball hoop, the rim is rotated toward and abuts the backboard to reduce the total volume of the portable basketball hoop, and can be stored and transported conveniently.
