DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de perfectionnement d'un mouvement utilisé par les joueurs de tennis dit "service de première balle. DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a device for improving a movement used by tennis players called "first ball service".
Jusqu'ici rien de semblable en l'état de la technique n'existait sinon de loin les traditionnels murs toujours en place à l'heure actuelle dans nombreux clubs de tennis, et sur lesquels murs est tracée une ligne symbolique représentant la partie supérieure du filet. Certains joueurs utilisent encore ces murs certes pour s'entraîner aux coups droits et aux revers.Hitherto nothing similar in the state of the art existed except by far the traditional walls still in place at present in many tennis clubs, and on which walls is drawn a symbolic line representing the upper part of the net. Certain players still use these walls to train for forehands and backhands.
Le but de la présente invention est de permettre un entraî- nement à exécuter ce mouvement seul et en dehors d'un court de tennis. Ainsi le joueur peut-il s'entrainer soit dans un jardin, soit dans un local ad hoc ou du moins de dimensions suffisantes soit encore à proximité d'un court de tennis en attendant que celui-ci devienne disponible.The object of the present invention is to allow training to execute this movement alone and outside a tennis court. Thus the player can train either in a garden, or in an ad hoc room or at least of sufficient dimensions or still near a tennis court while waiting for it to become available.
La figure A montre une forme préférentielle du dispositif; le joueur devra se place à env, cinq mètres de l'appareil soit en face du point 4 pour effectuer un service à droite, soit en face du point 3 pour effectuer un service à gauche.Figure A shows a preferred form of the device; the player will have to stand approx. five meters from the machine, either opposite point 4 to serve on the right, or opposite point 3 to serve on the left.
I1 devra pour réussir son service, envoyer sa balle le plus fort possible dans la trappe 1 située dans le panneau 2. To succeed in his service, he must send his ball as hard as possible into hatch 1 located in panel 2.
En cas de service réussi, la balle sera directement guidée vers la trappe de sortie 5. Un système de retour automatique des balles vers le joueur peut également être prévu comme équipement addtionnel à l'appareil.In the event of successful service, the ball will be directly guided towards the exit hatch 5. An automatic ball return system towards the player can also be provided as additional equipment to the apparatus.
La figure 8 est une vue de dessus de l'appareil, celui-ci étant en l'occurrence situé sur un court de tennis. Ici, le joueur 6 est placé à cinq mètres de l'appareil 7 et en face du point 3 de la figure A (pour effectuer un service à gauche
La zône hachurée 8 est la zône par laquelle la balle de tennis doit passer pour obtenir un service réussi. L'appareil 7 étant sur la trajectoire d'une balle réussie, le joueur aura donc l'assurance d'avoir donné à sa balle une trajectoir correcte si cette balle passe dans le cadre 1 de la figure A.Figure 8 is a top view of the apparatus, it being in this case located on a tennis court. Here, player 6 is placed five meters from device 7 and opposite point 3 in Figure A (to serve on the left
The hatched area 8 is the area through which the tennis ball must pass to obtain a successful service. The apparatus 7 being on the trajectory of a successful ball, the player will therefore have the assurance of having given his ball a correct trajectory if this ball passes in frame 1 of figure A.
Pour s'entraîner à faire des'services à droite,le joueur se placera également à cinq mètres de l'appareil en face du point 4 de la figure A.To practice doing services on the right, the player will also stand five meters from the device in front of point 4 in Figure A.
L'appareil pourra également être équipé d'une trappe réglable horizontalement et verticalement en fonction de la taille du joueur et de sa position sur la ligne de fond de court.The device can also be fitted with a horizontally and vertically adjustable hatch depending on the size of the player and his position on the baseline.
Quelle que soit la version, la présente invention présente l'avantage de pouvoir initier les joueurs de faible niveau comme de perfectionner des joueurs de niveau supérieur.Whatever the version, the present invention has the advantage of being able to initiate players of low level as well as of improving players of higher level.
Il va sans dire que l'invention ne se limite pas aux modes de réalisation ci-dessus décrits ou représentés; on pourra en effet y apporter de nombreuses modifications sans pour autant sortir du principe de ladite invention telles que par exemple un montage sur roulettes facilitant le rangement dans un garage ou hangar ou au contraire être fixé au sol, etre pliable ou démontable, ou encore construire l'appareil en matière transparente afin de mieux voir l'ensemble du court.Le dispositif pourra aussi être muni de filet ou autre moyen de récupération des balles, avoir un cadre oblique ou réglable à volonté, avoir un petit ou grand empatement sur socle lourd. I1 pourra également être pourvu d'une protection externe réflectorisante ou de tout autre système de réflectorisation afin que le joueur puisse, sans assistance aucune, contrôler lui-même ses propres mouvement
Le panneau pourra également entre supprimé: l'aire de pass-r: < de la balle représenté par la trappe pouvant être seule représentée par un tube métallique traçant son contour et dressé sur un pied vertical à partir du sol.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the embodiments described or represented above; we can indeed make many modifications without departing from the principle of said invention such as for example an assembly on casters facilitating storage in a garage or shed or on the contrary be fixed to the ground, be foldable or removable, or even build the device in transparent material in order to better see the whole court. The device can also be provided with a net or other means of retrieving balls, have an oblique or adjustable frame at will, have a small or large wheel base on a heavy base . It can also be provided with an external reflective protection or any other reflective system so that the player can, without any assistance, control his own movements himself.
The panel can also be deleted: the pass-r: <area of the ball represented by the hatch, which can be alone represented by a metal tube tracing its outline and erected on a vertical foot from the ground.
Le panneau peut être soit en bois, soit en métal, soit en
PVC ou en tous autres matériaux, soit opaques, soit translucides ou transparents.The panel can be either wooden, metal or
PVC or any other material, either opaque, translucent or transparent.
Ledit panneau peut comprendre deux trappes horizontales de façon à pouvoir assurer le service de première balle soit à droite soit à gauche évitant ainsi le déplacement de l'appareil.Said panel may include two horizontal hatches so as to be able to provide the first bullet service either to the right or to the left, thus avoiding the movement of the device.
Les tubes métalliques peuvent être constitués de métal plein comme être creux, peuvent être également en PVC ou en tous autres matériaux. The metal tubes can be made of solid metal as well as being hollow, can also be made of PVC or any other material.
