Pickleball paddle with segmented cores

Abstract

A pickleball paddle with segmented cores, comprising a plate body and a grip body, the plate body has a core, a frame and two surface layers, the frame is disposed on a periphery of the core, the core defines at least two ball-striking response parts adjacent to each other, a segment gap is formed between any two of the ball-striking response parts, the two surface layers are spaced apart from each other and respectively assembled on the core and the frame, and the grip body is formed from a bottom side of the frame of the plate body. Thereby, the core of the plate body is capable of deforming easily through the segment gaps between the ball-striking response parts, which is conducive to controlling a duration that a pickleball stays on the plate body, and also conducive to controlling a rotational force of the plate body on the pickleball.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A pickleball paddle with segmented cores, comprising a plate body, the plate body comprising:
 a core, the core defining at least two ball-striking response parts adjacent to each other, a segment gap being formed between any two of the at least two ball-striking response parts;   a frame, the frame being disposed on a periphery of the core; and   
       two surface layers, the two surface layers being spaced apart from each other and respectively assembled on the core and the frame, and the two surface layers corresponding to the at least two ball-striking response parts. 
     
     
         2 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least two ball-striking response parts are further provided with a plurality of components, the components have the first response parameters, the components are arranged with one another, the components extend between corresponding frame edges of the frame, and the two surface layers are assembled on the components of the core. 
     
     
         3 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the components are either arranged longitudinally with one another, or arranged transversely with one another, or arranged obliquely with one another, or arranged with one another in a combination of the above arrangements, a component gap is further provided between any two of the components, the components are made of either honeycomb structure or rib structure, the components are made of either carbon fiber material, hard plastic material or hard foam material. 
     
     
         4 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the frame has a second response parameter, the components with the first response parameters and the frame with the second response parameter are made of different materials, the first response parameter and the second response parameter are stiffness. 
     
     
         5 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the frame is made of either polyethylene (PE) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer, and the two surface layers are made of either a carbon fiber or a glass fiber. 
     
     
         6 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein further comprising a grip body, the grip body being formed by extending longitudinally or by connecting longitudinally from a bottom side of the frame of the plate body, the grip body being further assembled with a handle, and the handle being made of a synthetic rubber. 
     
     
         7 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein forming directions of any two of the segment gaps are selected from either intersecting or non-intersecting or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         8 . The pickleball paddle with the segmented cores as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the segment gap is further provided with a filler, the filler has a coefficient of elasticity, and the filler is further a rubber band with the coefficient of elasticity.
