Abstract (en)
Portable walls, in particular, walls for use in playing or practising ball games, for example Association Football (soccer) comprise: a plurality of impact-resistant panels; a plurality of hinges hingedly connecting together adjacent ones of the panels at adjacent edges thereof; and one or more support members to support the wall in a substantially upright disposition, each support member being secured, respectively, to one of the hinges. In a preferred form, the portable walls have hinges comprising a hinge pin in engagement with edge portions of adjacent panels, the edge portions being of a shape such that they each provide a plurality of hinge knuckles, the hinge knuckles of one of the adjacent panels engaging with the hinge knuckles of the other of the adjacent panels. There are also described methods for producing components of the portable walls. <IMAGE>
