Abstract (en)

Improved ball collecting device for racquets and bats having swinging arms (7,8) aided by their respective springs (9), preferably fitted on swinging hinges (6) on an anchoring base (1), springs (9) which cause the aforementioned arms (7,8) to be permanently folded over the anchoring base (1), the arms (7,8) being activated remotely, from the area of the handgrip (3) of the bat or racquet, by means of at least one transmission wire (17), aided by the corresponding casing (18), which connects the swinging arms (7,8) with a lever (10), in turn fixed in a way that it can move back and forth on the body of the bat or racquet, in the area of the handgrip (3), in a way which the manual action on the lever (10) causes the pincers, made up of the two arms (7,8), to open in order to pick up the ball, pressing against the springs (9) which cause the pincers to automatically close on releasing the manual pressure on the aforementioned lever (10). <IMAGE>
