Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a racket with a racket shock-absorbing device, especially to a racket shock-absorbing device capable of interfering and bearing and damping shock waves of a counter shock force generated when a string of a racket face and a racket is struck so as to reduce the shock wave being transferred to a wrist or an arm of a user.
  • a conventional racket is provided with longitudinal and transversal (defined as a Y-axis and an X-axis) strings on a racket frame of the racket, the racket frame is provided with longitudinal and transversal string holes which are symmetrically arranged on a periphery thereof, a single grommet is disposed inside the string hole, the string is disposed inside the single grommet so as to be woven for forming a racket surface having a certain tension (as known as pounds), the racket frame having the strings is formed as a racket which is used in various exciting ball games, for example tennis, badminton or squash; for allowing a ball to be received in a sweet spot of the racket surface, the sportsman holding the racket has to rapidly response and move and has a continuous focus, it is more important that shock waves of a counter shock force generated in an instant striking moment of the string of the racket frame being in contact with the ball may let the wrist or the arm of the sportsman feel n
  • the document US 10 004 950 B1 discloses a sports racquet for supporting at least one racquet string and including a frame and at least one string support assembly.
  • the frame includes handle and head portions separated by throat tubes.
  • the head portion has grommet holes, and includes top, bottom, first side and second side regions.
  • the string support assembly includes a grommet structure and at least one bearing element.
  • the grommet structure includes a strip and at least two barrels extending from the strip. Each barrel includes a string hole extending along an axis of the barrel, and extends through a separate one of the grommet holes.
  • the bearing element is coupled to the grommet structure, and includes an upper portion having a grooved rim engaging the string and a deflectable lower portion having opposing cutouts.
  • the support assembly is positioned at one or more of the top, bottom, first side and second side regions.
  • the document US 4 681 319 A discloses a racquet having a transverse compliant edge system that supports the racquet strings and has independent elastic transverse movement of the string supports while inhibiting accompanying radial movement.
  • the transverse compliant edge system includes rigid string support rails inside an outer channel in the racquet frame.
  • Each string support rail has an outer groove that contains and supports the racquet string and an inside contact surface supported by the racquet frame and that acts as a pivot point.
  • the string support rails are spaced away from the walls of the outer channel in the racquet frame and the spaces are bridged with compliant material or springs.
  • Another primary objective of the present invention is to provide a racket with a racket shock-absorbing device, in which the shock-absorbing device comprises a lower hard seat member and an upper soft pad member disposed between two single grommets of a racket frame, advantages of providing interferences at different timings and capable of bearing shock waves of a counter shock force generated while a string being used for striking a ball for achieving a shock-absorbing and damping effect can be provided.
  • One another primary objective of the present invention is to provide a racket with a racket shock-absorbing device, which has advantages of effectively increasing the operation safety of a racket, enhancing the hold stability and reducing the sport damage.
  • a conventional racket is provided with longitudinal and transversal (defined as a Y-axis and an X-axis) strings on a racket frame of the racket
  • the racket frame is provided with longitudinal and transversal string holes which are symmetrically arranged on a periphery thereof
  • a single grommet is disposed inside the string hole
  • the string is disposed inside the single grommet so as to be woven for forming a racket surface having a certain tension (as known as pounds)
  • shock waves of a counter shock force are generated in an instant striking moment of the string of the racket frame being in contact with the ball
  • the counter shock force and the tension (tightness) of the string is in a direct ratio, in other words the higher the tension, the greater the counter shock force, the counter shock force would be transferred to the wrist or the arm through the racket, so that sport damages, for example tennis elbow due to backhand striking or golf elbow due to positive striking, may happen because there
  • one technical solution provided by the present invention is to provide a racket according to claim 1.
  • the lower hard seat member is integrally formed at the periphery of the racket frame of the racket and arranged between the two single grommets of the string hole.
  • the single grommet is disposed at two ends of the lower hard seat member and downwardly extended and provided with a through hole, formed in a penetrated status, allowing the string to pass.
  • one or more than two protrusions are disposed inside the single grommet.
  • the one or more than two protrusions of the lower hard seat member are disposed inside the through hole of the single grommet, and the buckle slot correspondingly formed on the upper soft pad member is formed as a filled and flattened solid surface.
  • the protrusions of the lower hard seat member and the buckle slots of the upper soft pad member are symmetrically arranged or asymmetrically arranged.
  • the protrusions of the lower hard seat member and the buckle slots of the upper soft pad member are symmetrically formed in a cut status having two ends being aligned or in a retracted status and arranged at two ends of the protrusion and two ends of the upper soft pad member.
