Abstract

The novel racket of the present invention comprises an elongated, S-shapedhandle 1 whose grip 3 forms an angle of +- 40 degrees relative to the handle1, which at its other end completes the S-shape, being connected to the frame2 at an opposite but equivalent angle as that of the grip 3; thus, the racketforms a large "S". It must be noted that the grip 3 is parallel to the handle1, it is arranged offset from the middle axis of the frame 2. The novelelongated S-shaped racket provides many advantages: firstly, gripping it isperfectly natural for the human fist and the total ergonomy of the movements(swings, upper-cuts, high-balls, low-balls, services, etc.) that areexecuted. The elongated S-shape gives the player a natural grip in attainingthe ideal racket head height relative to the player's arms and consequentlyplaying at enhanced performance in executing so-called difficult swings.

  C E ¯=. T C. ± 1 s. F µ U fi Le poignet fermé. d'un homme avec son bras tendu forme un angle oblique par rapport à l'axe du bras d'environ 35  à 40  : or les manches traditionnels des raquettes de tennis sont tous perpendiculiers à la tête (cadre) de la raquette ; ceci implique une prise en main dans laquelle le poignet doit s'adapter au manche de la raquette-neammoins dans la prise en main traditionelle, la tête de la raquette resulte assez haute par rapport au manche. Ceci 
 EMI1.2 
 est avantageux pour les balles d'hauteur moyenne ; 50 cms à 70 cms du sol, mais se revèle difficile pour les balles basses, il faut bien plier les genoux pour le frapperchose pas facile pour un joueur moyen. Les balles hautes 150 cms à 180 cms sont aussi difficiles à   maitriser   ainsi que des balles dont la trajectoire est très proche du corps du joueur.

   Or une solution à la contrainte du manche droit est d'inflechir l'éxtrémité (la poignée) de l'axe du manche-Brevet No. 898.892 Class A 63 B. 



  Raquette à manche inflechi de 450. Cette solution permet une prise en main ergonomique mais avec un serieux désavantage : la tête de la raquette se trouve beaucoup plus basse que l'axe du bras du joueur, ceci fonctionne assez bien avec des balles hautes, mais se revèle injouable avec des balles normales ou basses car en baissant l'angle du bras, le cadre de la raquette heurte automatiquement le terrain. Ceci est valable aussi pour le brevet No. 



  4.147. 348 Avril 3 1979, LEE, ETATS UNIS, qui en changeant l'angle du cadre de seulement 50 ne resoud pas ce problème. 



  Une autre solution est celle de changer l'angle de la tête de la raquette vis-à-vis l'axe du manche. Plusieurs brevets ont été accordes suivants des angles   differents.   



  Recemment Brevet 007433 G Bl int. Cl. 4 : A 63 B 49/02 a demontré qu'un cadre de raquette dont l'angle   vis-à-vis   du manche est situé approximativement à 450 comporte   certains avantages notamment la possibilité de jouer les balles tres

Fig. E 6) pour les   coups "dits" liftés ; l'effet imprimé à la   balle est bien superieur à celui des raquettes traditionnelles, puisque le cadre de la raquette ascendente ou descendente permet de la brosser sur toute sa longueur, (du cadre) au lieu de sa largeur qui est plus courte. 



  7) les services sont aussi facilités par l'angle plus naturel du bras du joueur qui n'est plus obligé d'effectuer une grande rotation derrière son dos pour frapper la balle descendante. 



  8) La forme de la raquette de l'invention, Fig. A permet aussi aux joueurs à deux mains de tenir la raquette aussi avec l'autre main d'une façon ergonomique car l'angle de prise pour la deuxième main, plus haut sur le manche après la flexion, est aussi de   +     40 .   Ceci facilite enormement le pivot entre les deux   mrins   et augmente la puissance du coup.

 EMI1.1
 



  TENNIS RACKET P, EC HANDLE MOVES PARALLELY WITH RESPECT TO THE AXIS OF THE FRAME, FORMING AN ASSEMBLY IN THE FORM OF "S" ALLOWING A PERFECTLY SAVING AND COSEUALLY GETTING ACHIEVED GAME EFFICIENCY.



  C E ¯ =. T C. ± 1 s. F µ U fi Wrist closed. of a man with his outstretched arm forms an oblique angle with respect to the axis of the arm of approximately 35 to 40: or the traditional handles of tennis rackets are all perpendicular to the head (frame) of the racket; this implies a grip in which the wrist must adapt to the handle of the racket-nonetheless in the traditional grip, the head of the racket results quite high compared to the handle. This
 EMI1.2
 is advantageous for bales of medium height; 50 cms to 70 cms from the ground, but turns out to be difficult for low balls, you have to bend your knees to hit it, not easy for an average player. Balls 150 cm to 180 cm high are also difficult to master, as are balls whose trajectory is very close to the player's body.

   Now a solution to the constraint of the right handle is to bend the end (the handle) of the axis of the handle-Patent No. 898.892 Class A 63 B.



  Racket with inflected handle of 450. This solution allows an ergonomic grip but with a serious disadvantage: the head of the racket is much lower than the axis of the player's arm, this works quite well with high balls, but is revealed to be unplayable with normal or low balls because by lowering the angle of the arm, the racket frame automatically hits the ground. This also applies to patent No.



  4.147. 348 April 3 1979, LEE, UNITED STATES, which by changing the frame angle of only 50 does not solve this problem.



  Another solution is to change the angle of the head of the racket vis-à-vis the axis of the handle. Several patents have been granted at different angles.



  Recently Patent 007433 G Bl int. Cl. 4: A 63 B 49/02 has demonstrated that a racket frame whose angle with respect to the handle is located approximately 450 has certain advantages, in particular the possibility of playing very balls

 is automatically parallel to the ground (no need to bend the knees). Fig.

   D 4) normal balls are played with a: very great ease by making a completely natural movement. Fig. O 5) high balls are much easier to play because you always hold the racket in a natural way. Fig. E 6) for the "so-called" lifted shots; the effect printed on the ball is much superior to that of traditional rackets, since the frame of the ascending or descending racket allows it to be brushed over its entire length (of the frame) instead of its width which is shorter.



  7) the services are also facilitated by the more natural angle of the player's arm which is no longer obliged to make a large rotation behind his back to strike the ball down.



  8) The shape of the racket of the invention, FIG. A also allows players with two hands to hold the racket also with the other hand in an ergonomic way because the grip angle for the second hand, higher on the handle after flexing, is also + 40. This greatly facilitates the pivot between the two lines and increases the power of the blow.
