Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ball impact device, in particular tennis or squash rackets, comprising a shaft comprising a handle, and a head frame connected to the shaft, which limits a ball striking surface in the form of longitudinal and transverse strings which cross each other, wherein the longitudinal and transverse strings in particular in each case in a meandering shape - bores are formed through top and bottom, on the one hand, and left and right, on the other hand, in the head frame.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a ball impact device of the type in question, in particular a tennis racket, whose number of longitudinal and / or transverse strings can be changed individually in a simple manner.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide measures that allow to slightly change the longitudinal string spacing, for example, to meet the desire of a player for more spin or spin can. These should also be measures that the player can individually accomplish himself while covering the racket.
  • the first object is achieved by the features of claim 1.
  • the deflection of the outermost longitudinal string in the outermost transverse string on the head frame by a transverse string spacing moved up or down.
  • an essential point of the teaching according to claim 3 et seq. which can be realized in combination with the above teaching, but also independently, is that the cross section of the holes for the implementation of at least a central part of the longitudinal and / or transverse strings is formed significantly larger than the diameter of the longitudinal or transverse strings themselves, and that on the inner and / or outer side of the head frame the upper and lower and optionally left and right holes each have an eyelet strip with openings for the passage of the longitudinal or Cross string is assigned, whose cross-section each about the cross section of L Lucassl. Cross strings corresponds and their distance from one another determines the distance between adjacent longitudinal or transverse strings in the area of the striking surface.
  • a set of at least two upper / lower and / or left / right ⁇ senbs provided, wherein the ⁇ senb sections such a set are each characterized by a different size spacing of the openings for the passage of the longitudinal and / or transverse strings.
  • the distance of the through holes varies within a predetermined bandwidth such that the passage openings of the ⁇ senb selected are always within the larger cross sections of the associated holes in the head frame.
  • the distance between adjacent through holes is 11.5 mm on the one hand and 11.1 mm on the other hand. This range of variation is sufficient to solve the second problem mentioned above.
  • the ⁇ senb are formed in a conventional manner as plastic bands with tube-shaped through holes.
  • a perforated tape can be plugged, by means of which the mutual distance of the tube-shaped through holes can be fixed within the holes in the head frame.
  • the perforated tape is placed on the tube-shaped through holes on the eyelet opposite side of the head frame, usually attached to the radially inner side of the head frame.
  • Fig. 1 is an upper diagonal arc portion of an inventively designed
  • Head frame velvet associated clothing in a schematic plan view
  • Fig. 2 shows a part of a tennis racket with centrally upper and lower portion of the head frame in a schematic longitudinal section.
  • FIG. 1 shows the upper left diagonal arch area 22 of a head frame 11 of a tennis or squash racket with the longitudinal and transverse strings 14 and 20 retracted in this area.
  • holes 15 for the longitudinal strings 14 and 14 'and holes 21 for the transverse strings 20 and 20' are formed in the head frame 11 .
  • These bores are at least in the two upper and two lower diagonal arc portions corresponding to the arc portion 22 spaced apart such that at the expense of a top cross string 20 'and corresponding bottom cross string both left and right another longitudinal string 14' substantially parallel to the rest Long strings 14 is retractable, and vice versa.
  • the deflection region 23 between the outermost transverse string on the one hand and the outermost longitudinal string on the other hand also shifts in the diagonal arc region 22 of the head frame 11 in the direction of the double arrow 24.
  • transverse strings 20 or 20' which are also referred to as "QS" in FIG. are designated, remain the 12 inner longitudinal strings 14 and 17 inner transverse strings 20 unchanged or without rearrangement of the outermost longitudinal strings 14 'in the outermost transverse strings 20' and vice versa passed through the associated holes 15 and 21 in the head frame 11.
  • Fig. 2 shows - as already mentioned - a part of a tennis racket with the central upper and lower portion of the head frame 11 in a schematic longitudinal section, wherein the lower portion of the head frame, an eyelet 17 with slightly further spaced through openings or concrete tube-shaped through holes 18, and the upper portion of the head frame 11, an eyelet band 16 is associated with less widely spaced through openings or tubular passage openings 18.
  • both the upper and the lower portion of the head frame 11 is associated with a respective ⁇ senband with equidistant spaced through openings 18.
  • a handle comprising a shank which is connected to the head frame 11 directly or via a heart 12, wherein the core 12 is laterally bounded by two heart bars 13.
  • the heart bars 13 go on the opposite side of the head frame 11 in the shaft.
  • the head frame 11, which is generally oval-shaped and comprises a hollow profile made of plastic, limits a ball striking surface 19 in the form of intersecting longitudinal strings 14 and transverse strings, which are not shown in Fig. 2 for a better understanding of the construction according to the invention.
  • the longitudinal and transverse strings are respectively meandering through top and bottom on the one hand and on the left and right on the other hand formed in the head frame holes (see Fig. 1) passed.
  • the cross section of the holes 15 for the implementation of the longitudinal strings 14 is formed significantly larger than the diameter of the longitudinal strings 14 itself.
  • the inner diameter of the holes 15 is about 4-5 x greater than the outer diameter of the longitudinal strings 14th ,
  • tubular passage openings 18 are an integral part of a ⁇ senbandes 16 and 17 respectively.
  • the free cross-section of the tube-shaped through openings 18 in the two eyelet bands 16, 17 corresponds approximately to the cross section of the longitudinal strings 14.
  • the distance of the tubular passage openings 18 determines the distance between adjacent longitudinal sides 14 in the region of the striking surface 19th
  • a perforated tape 25 is attached to the tube-shaped through holes to stabilize the mutual distance between the tube-shaped through holes within the much larger holes 15 in the head frame and permanently set.
  • a set of at least two upper / lower - possibly also left / right - eyelet bands 16 and 17 respectively are provided, wherein the eyelet bands of such an eyelet tape set each by a different sized distance of the tubular passage openings 18 for Distinguish the passage of the longitudinal strings 14.
  • the distance between the passage openings 18 varies within a predetermined bandwidth such that the passage openings 18 of the eyelet belts 16 and 17 are always within the larger cross sections of the associated holes in the head frame 11. This can be seen Fig. 2 very well.
  • the distance between adjacent tubular passage openings 18 is 11.5 mm (see the lower eyelet 17 in FIG. 2) and 11.1 mm (see in Fig. 2, the upper eye band 16).
  • Fig. 2 the tennis rackets shown only partially in Fig. 2 is formed in a conventional manner, so that a detailed description of the same is unnecessary. The same naturally also applies to the tennis racket according to FIG. 1.
