Abstract
An apparatus for polymerization of adhesive resin applied to the junctions of tennis racket netting, comprising a container having a plurality of superimposed compartments communicating with one another and each arranged to receive a racket, a source of heat arranged below the compartments and a fan arranged above said compartments for circulation of heated air from said source of heat through said compartment and a vertical passage adjacent said compartments back to the bottom of said container.
Claims11
For use with tennis rackets an apparatus for polymerization of adhesive resin applied to the junctions of tennis racket netting, the improvement comprising a parallelepipedic container having a plurality of superimposed compartments communicating with one another and each arranged to receive at least a portion of a racket, a source of heat arranged substantially below said compartments, means for circulation of air from said source of heat through said compartments, a passage means extending vertically through said container along one side thereof adjacent said superimposed compartments for conducting air flow from said compartments to said source of heat, a thermostat for maintaining the temperature within said compartments at a desired constant level, and a control timer, and wherein each of said compartments has a front door mounted for pivotal movement about a horizontal axis on a pivot extending along its upper edge so that said door can pivot in both directions, said door being provided with a central cut-out portion to permit the handle of a racket to project therethrough.
For use with tennis rackets an apparatus for polymerization of adhesive resin applied to the junctions of tennis racket netting, the improvement comprising a parallelepipedic container having a plurality of superimposed compartments communicating with one another and each arranged to receive at least a portion of a racket, a source of heat arranged substantially below said compartments, means for circulation of air from said source of heat through said compartments, a passage means extending vertically through said container along one side thereof adjacent said superimposed compartments for conducting air flow from said compartments to said source of heat, a thermostat for maintaining the temperature within said compartments at a desired constant level, and a control timer, said compartments having clearance to permit rotating of such racket portion therein without removing the racket therefrom, such racket comprising an enlarged head and a handle extending therefrom, and each of said compartments has side walls and an opening means in at least one of said side walls for permitting such racket handle to project therethrough while such racket head remains in said compartment, whereby such racket handle may be manipulated to rotate such racket head without removing such head from said compartment.
For use with tennis rackets an apparatus for polymerization of adhesive resin applied to the junctions of tennis racket netting, the improvement comprising a parallelepipedic container having a plurality of superimposed compartments communicating with one another and each arranged to receive at least a portion of a racket, a source of heat arranged substantially below said compartments, means for circulation of air from said source of heat through said compartments, a passage means extending vertically through said container along one side thereof adjacent said superimposed compartments for conducting air flow from said compartments to said source of heat, a thermostat for maintaining the temperature within said compartments at a desired constant level, and a control timer, said compartments having clearance to permit rotating of such racket portion therein without removing the racket therefrom, and further comprising partition means for vertically separating adjacent compartments, each partition means having a relatively large central opening means therein for permitting continuous communication between such compartments, said partition means being mounted closer than the relatively larger cross-sectional diameter of such racket head and said relatively large central opening means providing at least a portion of such clearance to permit such rotation of such head without removing the latter from its compartment.
