TENNIS NET AND PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING SAME.
Application filed May 16, 1927. Serial No. 191,647.
My invention relates to improvements in a tennis net and process of manufacturing the same and has for one object to provide a tennis net having a selvage or reinforcing edge about the bottom and ends of the net. Another object is to provide a new and'improved method of applying selvage or reinforcement to bottom and ends of a tennis net. Other objects will appear from time to time throughout the specification and claims.
My invention is illustrated more or less diagrammatically in the accompanying drawing, wherein- Figure 1 is a tennis net in perspective;
Figure 2 is a detail before a reinforcing selvage is applied;
Figure 3 is a detail of an end of the net, showing a reinforcing selvage.
Like parts are indicated by like characters throughout the several figures.
A is the usual type of tennis not having at the top a tubular canvas binding A through which passes the holding rope A which extends over a pulley A at the top of the post A and is anchored as at A to support the end between the posts, or is otherwise attached to the posts.
B is a bottom selvage formed from a cord or rope looped to the not. B B are end selvages similarly formed. The cords extend away from the corner of the not so that it may be anchored on the post at the bottom as indicated at B Referring to the detail, it will be noted that one of the net cords C extends parallel with the cord lying against it and that the ends of those cords perpendicular to the cord lying on the cord are bent into parallelism with the cord as at C C is the loop which enfolds the cord, the net cord, or the ends of stubs of the transverse cords. This looping is carried out. to the extreme end of the cord where it terminates in a wrapping C so that the net is held integrally in relation with the cord and the ends of all the transverse cords are held in place against the body of the cord.
This net is assembled by first cutting from a strip of netting a piece of net of the desired length and width to form the tennis net, then laying the cords along three sides of the net and feeding the cord and not through a looping machine to loop the cord and the net cord together and to loop the free ends of the transverse cords against the cord so as to form a continuous sclvage. here the two cords intersect they are also looped together and one of the cords is extended, the looper working on it to enclose the selvage down to the end where it is wrapped. By this arrangement the cord protected and held against fraying and Wearing and the three sides of the net are bound together. Then the remaining open edge or open side of the net is sewed into a tubular canvas binding, the ends of the cords being also sewn into the binding, thus providing a net having the canvas binding at one side and having a special cord reinforced selvage around the other three sides.
I claim:
1 In a tennis net, a cord along one side thereof, the cord being looped to one strand of the net, the stub ends of the transverse strands beyond the first mentioned strand of the not being held into parallelism with the cord by the looping.
2. In. a tennis net, a cord along one side thereof, the cord being looped to one strand of the not, the stub ends of the transverse strands beyond the first mentioned strand of the not being held into parallelism with the cord by the looping, one cord extending from each of the two lower corners of the net, the looping surrounding the cord to, the end and a binding about the end of the cord to hold it and the termination of the looping together.
3. In combination with a tennis net, a cord, one side thereof looped to the net, there be ing one strand of the net enclosed between the looping and the cord, the stub ends of the transverse strands being also held against the cord.
Signed at Chicago county of Cook and State of Illinois, this 11th day of May, 1927.
LESLIE L. APPLEYARD.
