Abstract

The basket (1) is for picking up tennis balls, and is in the form of a roller. It consists of rigid wires (4) that form parallel circles and are held by two rods (3) at a separation slightly less than the diameter of the balls. The basket has a tripod handle (6) and it is rolled over the balls without exerting pressure or stopping. A door (8) in the side allows the balls to be picked up one by one and allows the basket to be emptied by a single blow.

Description

La présente invention concerne les paniers ramasseurs de balles de tennis ou de toute autre sphère élastique qu'on désire soulever de terre pour le porter à hauteur de main sans se baisser. The present invention relates to baskets for collecting tennis balls or any other elastic sphere which it is desired to lift from the ground to carry it at hand level without stooping.

Dans des dispositifs connus de ce genre, il faut exercer une pression du haut en bas au dessus des balles afin que celles-ci pénetrent dans le panier à travers des fentes d'une largeur infériez re au diamètre d'une balle situées dans le fond du panier. Les anses de ce panier repliés servent de support pour mettre le panier à hauteur de main. In known devices of this kind, it is necessary to exert a pressure from top to bottom above the balls so that they enter the basket through slots of a width less than the diameter of a ball located in the bottom from the basket. The folded basket handles serve as a support for placing the basket at hand level.

D'autres dispositifs prévoient des griffes qui saisissent les balles par pression. On connait d'autres dispositifs munis d'une courroie à gobelet qui soulèvent les balles de terre jusqu'au panier. Other devices provide for claws which grip the balls by pressure. Other devices are known which have a cup belt which lift the bales of soil up to the basket.

Le panier ramasseur de balles selon l'invention permet d'aviver ces inconvénients, à savoir : s'arrêter au-dessus de chaque balle pour effectuer une pression afin de la faire rentrer dans le panier. Il est en effet constitué en forme de rouleaux par des cercles parallèles,de fils rigides disposés à un intervalle inférieur au diamètre d'une balle le tout formant un panier cylindrique que lton peut faire rouler avec un manche trépied relié avec 2 axes ou rouleau lui-meme. The ball collecting basket according to the invention makes it possible to accentuate these drawbacks, namely: stop above each ball to apply pressure in order to make it enter the basket. It is in fact formed in the form of rollers by parallel circles, of rigid wires arranged at an interval less than the diameter of a ball all forming a cylindrical basket which can be rolled up with a tripod handle connected with 2 axes or a roller itself. -even.

Il n'est pas nécessaire de s'arrêter ni d'exercer une pression sur chaque balle pour la faire pénétrer à l'intérieur. I1 suffit de le diriger sur les balles qui, se disposant pendant la marche dans les inter- valles, sont avalées et pénètrent à l'intérieur sans pouvoir sortir ensuite. Renversé sur son trépied, ce rouleau présente les balles à hauteur de main.There is no need to stop or apply pressure to each ball to get it inside. It is enough to direct it on the balls which, being arranged during the march in the intervals, are swallowed and penetrate inside without being able to leave afterwards. Reversed on its tripod, this roller presents the balls at hand level.

Une trappe sur les côtés permet de saisir les balles une par une aisèment ou de le vider d'un seul coup. I1 n'y a pas de limite sur la quan tité de balles que le rouleau peut ramasser, 50 balles est une quantité opportune.A hatch on the sides allows you to grab the balls one by one or to empty it all at once. There is no limit on the quantity of bales the roller can pick up, 50 bales is a good quantity.

Melon une première variante, il peut être muni de bandes de roulage d'une certaine largeur pour ne pas rayer la surface des terrains de tennis en terre battue. According to a first variant, it can be provided with treads of a certain width so as not to scratch the surface of tennis courts on clay.

Selon une deuxième variante ltécartement entre les cercles peut être modifié et les fils rendus élastiques pour ramasser d'autres balles 5( exemple: balles de golf ). According to a second variant, the spacing between the circles can be modified and the wires made elastic to pick up other balls 5 (example: golf balls).

Selon une troisième variante, les trappes ou portes sur les côtés peuvent avoir des formes ou systèmes différents.According to a third variant, the hatches or doors on the sides can have different shapes or systems.

Le dessin annexé est une vue en coupe du dispositif lorsque l'on veut ramasser des balles de tennis.The accompanying drawing is a sectional view of the device when it is desired to pick up tennis balls.

Tel qu'il est représenté, le dispositif comporte : un rouleau panier 1 constitué par des cercles parallèles et concentriques de fils rigides relies par deux tiges 3 à un écartement légèrement inférieur deur au diamètre des balles de tennis. Les-cBrcles 4 aux extrémités forment deux jantes traversées par les axes i;:i de l'étriper 5 sur lequel est fixé un manche trépied 6 démontable à l'aide d'une goupille 7.As shown, the device comprises: a basket roller 1 constituted by parallel and concentric circles of rigid wires connected by two rods 3 at a spacing slightly less than the diameter of the tennis balls. The -cBrcles 4 at the ends form two rims crossed by the axes i;: i of the clamp 5 on which is fixed a tripod handle 6 removable using a pin 7.

Une porte 8 qui pivote sur l'axe 9 et qui est retenue en position fermée par les languettes ressort 10 peut s'ouvrir en la faisant pivoter quand on veut saisir les balles une à une ou vider le panier d'un seul coup.A door 8 which pivots on the axis 9 and which is retained in the closed position by the spring tabs 10 can be opened by making it pivot when it is desired to grasp the balls one by one or empty the basket all at once.

Ce rouleau, objet de l'invention permet, grâce à un, ramassage de balles plus rapide et plus aisé que celui des appareils en usage, de dédier plus de temps aux exercices spécifiques de l'instruction du tennis et plus particulièrement dans le cas de l'emploi des machines lance balles dont le débit peut arriver jusqu'à 30 balles par minute.This roller, object of the invention allows, thanks to a faster and easier collection of balls than that of the apparatuses in use, to dedicate more time to the specific exercises of the instruction of tennis and more particularly in the case of the use of ball throwing machines whose flow can reach up to 30 balls per minute.

Il trouve son emploi auprès des écoles de tennis clubs, moniteurs, cours individuel et collectifs. He finds his job with schools of tennis clubs, monitors, individual and group lessons.
