Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to sporting equipment and more specifically to a device that can be selectively attached to some sporting equipment for the purpose of generating an audible sound under predetermined conditions.
  • the sound-generating device of the present invention is attached to hand held sporting equipment that travel through a sweeping motion, such as golf clubs and tennis racquets. By attachment of the sound-generating device to the aforementioned equipment it will be possible to cause audible sounds during predetermined velocities of the sound-generating device.
  • the present invention discloses a device that attaches to sporting equipment for the purpose of generating an audible sound under predetermined conditions.
  • the device is selectively attached to hand held sporting equipment, such as a golf club and tennis racquet, that travels through a sweeping motion.
  • hand held sporting equipment such as a golf club and tennis racquet
  • the device is comprised of a sound generation element and may include a means of attachment element.
  • the preferred embodiment of the present invention is a sound generation element comprised of a planar sheet of polyester film having an amount of adhesive along one side of said polyester film with a peelable protective element covering the adhesive.
  • the device is fixed to the sporting equipment by removing the adhesive protective element and placing the device in contact with the sporting equipment.
  • the device is wrapped around the sporting equipment with the adhesive element being a fixed to a part of the planar sheet of polyester.
  • the adhesive does not come into contact with the sporting equipment. Thereby the device is free to rotate about the sporting equipment during use.
  • the device incorporates a means of attachment element.
  • the means of attachment element provides for selective attachment and detachment of the sound generating device and is comprised of a snap-on collar or clip and alternately of lengths of material that can be twisted or tied around a portion of the sporting equipment.
  • the means for attachment element can be lengths of suitable material, such as cord or wire reinforced cord, having the sound generation element fixedly positioned thereto with sufficient free end lengths that can pass around a selected point on the sporting equipment and tied or twisted as means for securing the sound generation element to the sporting equipment.
