    摘要: A training tool for tennis has a head assembly, a stand assembly, and a vertical polymer flexible rod assembly connecting the substantially polymer head assembly to the stand assembly. The vertical polymer flexible rod assembly oscillates when a ball member held in the head assembly is hit by a racket. The system is operably coupled to sensors and a processor designed to detect how effectively a user has hit the retained ball member with a racket. The head assembly is disposed on a top end of the vertical polymer flexible rod assembly at a concave portion of a proximal face of a retaining plate member designed to contiguously abut at least a distal surface of the top end of the vertical polymer flexible rod assembly, the retaining plate member coupled to a distal surface of a ball cup member by the proximal face of the retaining plate member.

    摘要: A tennis practice apparatus that includes a main support member that is for mounting from an upright wall; an outer support member that is hinged with the main support member and includes a closed position wherein the outer support member is engaged against the main support member, and an open position wherein the outer support member is hinged to an open position that is substantially orthogonal to the main support member; and a pliable fabric sheet that extends between a top end of the main support member and the outer support member. The pliable fabric sheet defines a surface against which a user can hit tennis balls and retrieve tennis balls therefrom.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a tennis wall (100), comprising a frame that can be erected on the ground (101) and a cloth (102) stretched in said frame (101), wherein the cloth (102) is stretched such that a level cloth surface (104) is formed and that a tennis ball hitting the cloth surface (104) rolls or slides up the cloth surface (104) and then rolls or slides down again, characterized in that a recess (105) is provided on the upper end (103) of the cloth (102), the recess (105) being designed and positioned such that a tennis ball, once it has rolled or slid up the cloth surface (104), then enters the recess (105), subsequently rolls or slides out of the recess (105) again and only then rolls or slides down the cloth surface (104). The invention also relates to the use of this tennis wall as an aid in tennis training.

    摘要: A swing training device for baseball, softball, golf players, and potentially racquet sports players that provides feedback as to where the ball is hit. The swing training device comprises a first vertical member rigid and columnar in form connecting to a first horizontal member, being rod-like in form, at a first end. A second end of the first horizontal member comprises a ball-shaped end connecting with a swivel joint to a second vertical member. The swivel ball joint connection allows the second vertical member to rotate at an angle such that the player knows whether their hit contacted the ball in the center, or to the left or right of center, thereby allowing the player to make adjustments in their swing based on angle of rotation of the ball around the first horizontal member.

    摘要: A muscle activating and exercising device and a method of activating and exercising muscles of the human body. The device includes an outer material and at least one flexible inner material. The device is an elongated device that is pliable enough to be wrapped around an object. The device also has an outer surface that creates a frictional fit between the device and the wrapped object. The wrapped object could be, for example, a wrist or ankle on a human limb or a location on a portion of sports equipment (e.g., a lacrosse stick, baseball bat, hockey stick, golf club or tennis racket). The method includes a method of activating muscles using the device. Through such a method, a user can, for example. build muscle strength and/or reduce muscle tremors.
