  • a standard type of tennis racket stringing showing the deformation of the strings in the direction of arrow 10 upon impact by an oncoming tennis ball.
  • the impact of the tennis ball 12 deforms the strings at the impact point approximately into the configuration schematically illustrated by string 16, in which the impulse of the tennis ball in the direction of the arrow 18 is transmitted to the strings, as is illustrated by the intermediate string 20.
  • each string which is positioned above at the crossing point is compressed against the there-below positioned string (in the illustrated example against the string 16). Consequently, the approximately point-shaped contact surface between two crossing-over strings is widened into a larger contact surface having, for example, a width x.
  • FIGS. 3, 3a and 4 illustrate crosspiece guides 28, which are introduced between two crossing-over strings 16 and 20.
  • this crosspiece guide comprises two perpendicularly extending tubularly or trough-shaped members 30, 32 which, by means of two symmetrical mirror-image shaped wings or side walls 34 and 36, encompass the strings l6 and 20 for about one-half their circumferences, and which then extend substantially parallel to each and tangential relative to the respective strings beyond the latter.
  • This construction forms essentially groove-like depressions, in which the strings 16, 20 extend in side wall-contact with the contact wings 34, 36.
  • This first embodiment is of particularly simple construction, and facilitates the rapid and uncomplicated insertion of the individual strings into the crosspiece guides. I
  • FIG. 3a of the drawin'g' ge'nerally corresponds with that of FIG. 3, howv er., in this modification the tubular-like portions 430,32 only extend so as to encompass the strings 16, 20
  • a crosspiece guide 28 of the type described is in itself adequate to obtain an adequate guide and securing of the various strings 16, 20 in the region of the cross over points.
  • the wings of the tubular-like members 30, 32 may be, according to any particular requirement, either shortened or lengthened.
  • FIG. 4 there is illustrated a third embodiment of a crosspiece guide 28 in which the tubular-like members 30, 32 almost entirely encompass the strings 16, 20.
  • the respective wing portions as in the other embodiments, are symmetrically mirror-image shaped relative to each other, and their free ends bend into proximity to each other at the upper surface of each of the strings 16, 20.
  • the wing portions of the tubularlike members 30, 32 are preferably elastically constructed so that the strings 16, 20, after bending open of the wings, are clampingly encompassed by the latter upon snapping shut of the wings.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are in particular also adapted to prevent any direct impact contact by the oncoming tennis balls, which provides for a considerable reduction in mechanical wear
  • the embodiment of FIG. 3a is particularly simple in construction and in material savings.
  • the various strings 16, 20 may be displaced relative to each other in an unhindered manner in response to any load or rotation imparted thereto.
  • FIG. 5 there is illustrated a portion of a tennis racket stringing in which there are positioned crosspiece guides 28 constructed according to FIG. 3 a tithe cross-over points of the crossing strings 14, 16.
  • FIG. 6 which shows a sectional view of the stringing of FIG. 5 taken along line VI-VI, there may be clearly ascertained the inter-weaving of the individual strings l4 and 16.
  • FIGS. 7 and 7a there is ascertained in, respectively, side and plan views, a fourth embodiment of crosspiece guide 37.
  • This crosspiece'guide structure includes relatively perpendicularly extending tubular-like members 38 and 40, which closely adhere to the string at the cross-over point and which are mutually reinforced through flanges 42.
  • the tubular-like members 38 and 40 are, in the longitudinal direction of the recesses or bores 44 which are adapted to receive the strings, provided with a slot 46, by means of which they may elastically be bent apart so as to facilitate insertion of the string into the recess 44. Subsequently, the tubularlike member snaps closed and thereby fixedly retains the string in that position.
  • FIGS. 7, 7a A fifth embodiment which largely corresponds with the fourth embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 7, 7a, i's ascertained from FIGS. 8 and 8a.
  • the crosspiece guide crossing elements 37a shown therein comprises, in lieu of the tubular-like members, two mutually perpendicularly extending ridge-like members 38a, 40a which, in a manner similar to that of the embodiment of FIG. 3, serve as guide grooves for the strings (not shown).
  • the outwardly projecting wings of the rigde-like members 38a and 40a may be formed as high as required, and
  • crosspiece guides 37a of this embodiment are somewhat simpler in construction than the crosspiece guides 37 of the fourth embodiment, since the ridge-like members 38a, 40a do not include ring-like closed and consequently elastically formed regions.
  • FIGS. 7, 7a A section of a tennis racket stringing having crosspiece guides 37a of the type shown in FIGS. 7, 7a may be ascertained from FIG. 9 of the drawings.
  • the tubular-like closed, and with suitable longitudinal slots provided portions 38, 40 encompass perpendicular to each other extending strings 14, 16, so as to guide and protect these in the regions of their cross-over points.
  • These slots 46 extend in longitudinal directions in conformance with the re spective strings 14, 16.
  • FIG. 9 there is shown a sectional view taken along line X-X in FIG. 9, and from which there may be ascertained the sinuous interweaving of the individual strings 14, 16. Further, therein is illustrated the manner in which the tubular-like members 38, 40 adhere against the strings.
  • the wings 34, 36 and/or the ridge-like members 380, 40a be profiled at the ends thereof for enhancing their gripping ability. Thereby, as indicated it becomes still simpler to impart a spin to the tennis ball during play and to improvedly guide the latter.
  • the low-friction, self-lubricating synthetic or plastic material for the crosspiece guides be constituted of polyformaldehyde or polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon).
  • Teflon polyformaldehyde or polytetrafluoroethylene
  • the plastic material be constituted of a polypropylene or polyamide base with a molybdenum or graphite additive.
  • the elasticity of the novel gutstring stringing is considerably increased above the elasticity for prior art tennis racket stringings.
  • the player receives a considerably improved playing advantage due to the higher level of employment of the maximum elasticity characteristics of the gutstrings since, for example, by applying the same degree of force, the play is considerably accelerated.
  • the crosspiece guides in the regions of the crossover points provide a good support for the individual strings and a satisfactory guide while concurrently preventing friction which would tend to cause damage, and allow for the sliding-through movement of the individual strings so as to render possible the unhindered use of their elastic characteristics.
  • the crosspiece guides employed in the stringing allow for the use of thinner gutstrings, which additionally enhances the elasticity, and reduces the cost of the tennis racket stringing.
  • An intermediate crosspiece guide member formed of a low-friction self-lubricating synthetic material for use in a tennis racket stringing having crossing gutstrings, said member adapted to be mounted intermediate the gutstrings at the crossings thereof, said member comprising first and second recessed portions on opposite sides thereof, said recessed portions each including groove-forming pairs of upstanding wings adapted to extend along and engage at least part of the outer surface of gutstrings adapted to be received in said recessed portions, the groove-forming wings of said first recessed portion extending in a parallel spaced plane and transversely of the groove-forming wings of said second recessed portion adapted to prevent contact between adjacent gutstrings at the crossing thereof and to concurrently guide said gutstrings in coplanar and transverse directions.
  • said synthetic material being constituted of a polyamide base and a graphite additive.
  • each wing of said pair of upstanding wings being arcuately bent towards the other wing of said pair so as to form a substantially tubular configuration having a slot between the adjacent free ends of said wings.
