20090137348 | ROBOT FOR COLLECTING TABLE TENNIS BALLS - A robot for collecting table tennis balls on the ground includes a body, a rotor mounted at a front of the body, a driving module mounted on the body, and a control device. The body is configured for receiving the picked table tennis balls therein. The driving module drives the body to travel and drives the rotor to rotate for picking up the table tennis balls. The control device is configured for controlling the driving module to drive the robot to travel on the ground along a predetermined route. | 05-28-2009 |
20090137349 | Device for Training and Improving a Volleyball Spike Technique - The invention relates to sports training devices and can be used for training a volleyball spike-motion. The inventive device comprises a bearing frame, a ball, and a unit for returning the ball to the initial position thereof, which unit is provided with an elastic stretching connected to the frame by one end thereof, a rod whose one end is fixed to the frame in such a way that it has at least two degrees of freedom, whereas the second end of the rod is connected to the ball, and the second end of the stretching is connected to the rod. The frame is also provided with a limiter of traveling the rod. The device enables the ball to be moved along an arc, thereby increasing the quality of the spike-motion training, and improves effectiveness and safety of the training. | 05-28-2009 |

20100160092 | Hockey Shooting Training Device - A hockey shooting training device comprises an elongate track and a carriage having a puck shaped an engaging member supported thereon for engagement by a hockey stick to be displaced along the track with the carriage from a starting end to a target end. Wheels on the carriage have a resilient peripheral surface for rolling along the track. A tether coupled to the carriage is wound onto a spool at the starting end of the track. Constant frictional resistance is applied to the spool during displacement of the carriage towards the target end as the tether unwinds from the spool. A winding mechanism on the spool returns the carriage to the starting end. An illuminated indicator extends along the track to provide visual guidance of the path of the carriage. A further indicator may indicate an angular offset of the engaging member from a central position about an upright axis. | 06-24-2010 |
