Abstract
A racket frame is constructed to include a body, the body having an endless head and a shaft extended from the endless head for the mounting of a grip, and two wooden strips fastened to the endless head of the body at two sides, the wooden strips taking about 5%˜70% of the volume of the racket frame.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A racket frame for fastening with a grip to form a ball game racket, comprising:
a body, said body comprising an endless head and a shaft extended from said endless head for the mounting of the grip; and a wooden strip fastened to one side of said endless head of said body, the racket frame being made by: putting an elongated wooden strip in a cavity of a die, and at the same time preparing multiple layers of resin-immersed fiber cloth and winding said multiple layers of rein-immersed fiber cloth into a tubular member having an axially extended receiving chamber and then putting said tubular member in the cavity of said die, and then applying a fluid into the receiving chamber of said tubular member by a predetermined pressure to expand said tubular member and to force the periphery of said tubular member into close contact with a periphery of said cavity, causing said tubular member to be formed into a racket frame body having an endless head and a shaft, which racket frame body joins the wooden strip and forms with the wooden strip the desired racket frame.
2 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said wooden strip fastened to an outer surface of the endless head of said body.
3 . The racket frame as defined in claim 2 , wherein said wooden strip includes two sections respectively fastened to the endless head of said body at two sides, the sections each having a rear end respectively extended to said shaft and a front end spaced from each other at a distance and connected to each other by a protective strip at a front side of the endless head of said body.
4 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said wooden strip is fastened to an inner surface of the endless head of said body.
5 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein the wooden strip is polished after fastened to said body.
6 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein the resin used for said multiple layers of rein-immersed fiber cloth is selected from a group of resins including thermoplastic resin and thermosetting resin.
7 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein the fibers used for said rein-immersed fiber cloth is selected from a group of fibers including carbon fibers, glass fibers, boron fibers, and Kevlar fibers.
8 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 comprising a plurality of said wooden strips arranged into a stack fastened to the endless head of said body at one side.
9 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said shaft comprises two ribs, said ribs each having one end terminating in said endless head and an opposite end merged in each other and end covered with a grip.
10 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said wooden strip preferably takes about 5%˜70% of the volume of the racket frame.
11 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said wooden strip preferably takes about 10%˜50% of the volume of the racket frame.
12 . The racket frame as defined in claim 1 , wherein said wooden strip preferably has a thickness within 3˜5 mm.
13 . A racket frame for fastening with a grip to form a ball game racket, comprising:
a body, said body comprising an endless head and a shaft extended from said endless head for the mounting of the grip; and a wooden strip fastened to one side of said endless head of said body; wherein said wooden strip takes about 5%˜70% of the volume of the racket frame.
14 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 , wherein said wooden strip takes about 10%˜50% of the volume of the racket frame.
15 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 , wherein said wooden strip is fastened to an outer surface of the endless head of said body.
16 . The racket frame as defined in claim 14 , wherein said wooden strip includes two sections respectively fastened to the endless head of said body at two sides, the sections each having a rear end respectively extended to said shaft and a front end spaced from each other at a distance and connected to each other by a protective strip at a front side of the endless head of said body.
17 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 , wherein said wooden strip is fastened to an inner surface of the endless head of said body.
18 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 , wherein said body is made from multiple layers of resin-immersed fiber cloth by winding.
19 . The racket frame as defined in claim 18 , wherein the resin used for said multiple layers of rein-immersed fiber cloth is selected from a group of resins including thermoplastic resin and thermosetting resin.
20 . The racket frame as defined in claim 18 , wherein the fibers used for said rein-immersed fiber cloth is selected from a group of fibers including carbon fibers, glass fibers, boron fibers, and Kevlar fibers.
21 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 comprising a plurality of said wooden strips arranged into a stack fastened to the endless head of said body at one side.
22 . The racket frame as defined in claim 13 , wherein said wooden strip preferably has a thickness within 3˜5 mm.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
