Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9211907A1] A machine for delivering balls, especially tennis balls (5), with a ball feed device (6) to supply individual balls (5) from a ball magazine (2) to a ball delivery device (3) and a built-in delivery control device (30) for the issue of internal control signals to the ball feed device (6) to control the ball feed and hence the time of delivery. To facilitate external synchronisation of the delivery times, according to the invention the ball delivery machine has a device (33, 35) for deactivating the built-in delivery control device (30) and a control input (34) electrically connected to the ball feed device (6) for the preferably releasable connection of an external control cable (39) via which external control signals controlling the ball feed and hence the delivery time can be applied to the ball feed device (6) instead of the internal control signals.
