Abstract:
Abstract of EP1116502 The racket frame (2) comprises cord passage holes (5) fitted with cord guide eyelets (7). A hollow zone is formed by the outside of the frame (2a) for receiving the cord (8) passing in two of the holes. The reception zone has over the largest part of its length a first width less than the maximum diameter (d2) of the eyelets and at the holes a second width greater than this diameter. This zone enables an efficient reception of the cord without decreasing the frame rigidity. The eyelets have a widened head (7b) allowing a surface support on the widened hole inlet zones (5a).
