There is disclosed a baseball batting training device provided with a base plate which is anchored to the ground by spikes, cork-shaped ground engaging pins or various other types of ground anchoring systems. A vertically extending hollow tube is mounted to a plate spaced from the base by rubber isolators. An L-shaped tube has one arm inserted in the vertical hollow tube with a rubber collar affixed about the inner tube. The vertical tube is provided with several vertically spaced pairs of holes for receiving a pin therethrough for adjusting the height of the horizontal arm of the tube. A ball is mounted to a flexible support arm which in turn is inserted into the end of the horizontal arm which is attached to a rubber joint. The flexible support arm and other rubber components provide damping of torque forces generated when the ball is batted thereby preventing the base from being dislodged from the ground.
A ball practice device includes: a base member having a plurality of branch leg members branched from the base member, a plurality of cushioning pads each cushioning pad which may be a sandbag worn or secured on an end portion of each branch leg member of the base member, a telescopic post erected on a central portion of the base member, and a ball secured to the telescopic post by a connector, whereby upon batting or striking of the ball, the vibractional shock caused by the impact force for batting the ball will be dampened or depressed by the plurality of the cushioning pads for absorbing shock for preventing injury to the ball practice player.
A batting aid that may easily be installed upon fixed or temporary structures, made up of a main frame that slidably supports a tube which in turn supports a ball for a batter to hit. The ball is fixed to the tube by a wire cable that extends through the ball, and is in turn mounted to the tube. The tube is height adjustable so that batters of differing stature and ages can easily practice upon balls at varied heights. The assembly is strong in construction so that a practicing batter is able to hit the ball hard and not cause damage or require another player to throw balls over the plate or return balls to the batter.
A ball game practice apparatus comprising a ball, a practice apparatus main body that hangs the ball and at the same time regulates the ball flying range, the practice apparatus main body possessing a frame that can hang the ball at a specified position via an elastic means and a column for supporting this frame, wherein the elastic means comprising a frame connection extended along the frame and mounted to the frame and a ball connection that hangs the ball, characterized by the frame connection of the elastic means mounted to the frame which is turned back by at least a pair of turn-back portions with a rotatable turn-back mechanism.
A batting practice apparatus comprising an upright support mast associated with a base having a plurality of legs which are able to be mounted to a surface. A rotatable sleeve slides over the mast. The sleeve can rotate about the mast and a pin slides within the slots. An arm with a ball-shaped object at the distal end extends from the sleeve. An elastic member is associated at one end with the sleeve by means of a tab extending from the sleeve; and, at the other end is associated with a base leg. When the batter strikes the ball-shaped object, the sleeve rotates upward about the mast and returns as urged by the elastic member.
