Collapsible structures (20) are provided having at least two collapsible flexible loop members (22,24), each loop member defining a closed loop and having an upper and a lower edge (30,34,32,36). Each loop member (22,24) is capable of assuming an expanded position and a collapsed position. Two adjacent loop members (22,24) overlap each other at a first overlapping point (26) along the upper edges (30,34) of the two adjacent loop members (22,24), and at a second overlapping point (28) along the lower edges (32,36) of the two adjacent loop members (22,24). The overlapping loop members (22,24) define a hinge portion about which the two adjacent loop members are pivotable, with the hinge portion positioned vertically with respect to the ground. A fabric (40,42) is provided for substantially covering each loop member (22,24), each loop member (22,24) substantially supporting the fabric (40,42) in particular areas so that the fabric (40,42) assumes the particular configuration of the loop member (22,24) in its expanded position. The loop members (22,24) and their associated fabric (40,42) are foldable on top of each other about their respective hinge portions to have the loop members (22,24) and their associated fabric (40,42) overlaying each other, and the overlaying loop members (22,24) are then collapsible to the collapsed positions by twisting and folding to form a plurality of concentric rings and layers of fabric to substantially reduce the size of the structure (20) in the collapsed position.

A games table features a unique corner assembly in which upper and lower corner members respectively embrace about upper and lower edges of an elongated perimeter frame member of the table and are clamped together to secure the frame member in place. Matable male and female features on the corner assemblies also enable stacking of two table top units to enable convenient switching of a games table between two modes of game play.

The invention relates to a korfball hoop comprising a mast for supporting the hoop itself, and is characterized in that it comprises: a metal frame (2) having a general cylindrical configuration welded to arms (11, 12) on the side of the mast and consisting of metal hoops (21, 22) that are spaced apart vertically and connected therebetween by vertical intermediate tubes (23); a discontinued lateral surface (3) constituted by a rope (31) helically wound on the circumference of the structure (2), forming a plurality of vertical loops surrounding the rings (21, 22) of the structure (2); and a ring-shaped piece (4) to finish covering the upper contour of the basket, forming the mouth of said basket.

Collapsible structures are provided comprising at least two flexible loop members (22, 24), each having an expanded position and a collapsed position. At least two of the loop members (22, 24) cross each other at a first overlapping point (26) along first edges (30, 34) of the loop members and at a second overlapping point (28) along second edges (32, 36) of the loop members, the at least two crossing loop members (22, 24) defining a hinge portion about which the loop members are pivotable. A fabric (40, 42) is provided to substantially cover each loop member, the fabrics of respective loop members crossing one another along the hinge portion.
