Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0382652A1] Apparatus for stringing a tennis racquet (17), comprising: - a support (1> - a stringing cradle (2), mounted rotatably on the support, which can be adjusted in respect of angular position relative to the latter - a rigid but removable means (3, 4) for fixing the frame (17a) of the racquet onto the stringing cradle, arranged on the latter, comprising at least two clamping jaws (25), each directed and open (25a) towards the frame (17a) of the racquet - an element (8) for tensioning the stringing thread, integral with the support, comprising a traction head (9), characterised in that, on the one hand, by virtue of means (27) for controlling the clamping jaws (25) in terms of displacement, the latter are movable only in a stringing reference plane between a separated position releasing the frame and a close-together position clamping the latter, and, on the other hand, each jaw comprises means for self-positioning the frame of the racquet, through the effect of the displacement of at least one clamping jaw from the separated position to the close-together position, in order to bring the plane of the string section of the racquet into the reference stringing plane. <IMAGE>
