Molded graphite or glass fiber tennis racket includes frame with bridge separated from frame arms by mechanical discontinuities in form of elastic joints that reduce vibration

摘要

The tennis racket includes a molded graphite or glass fiber frame (11) with a handle connected to the frame by two arms (16,17). A bridge (15) is provided for completing the frame and extends between the two arms, with the connections (32,32') between the arms and bridge defining mechanical discontinuities. Each discontinuity maintains the tension of strings (12) crossing the bridge and frame while filtering vibrations of the strings.
