ABSTRACT:
A net and trough assembly for a robot table tennis ball serving device the trough is foldable for storage in a carrying case. The net of the assembly has a dual net arrangement for surrounding a robot to capture balls in the trough in order to feed balls back to a robot. The net contains a rear ball impervious net and a forward net designed to allow balls striking the forward net at a predetermined velocity to pass through the forward net, then strike the rear net and finally drop in the trough. Balls striking the forward net with insufficient velocity to penetrate the forward net will also drop into the trough assembly. The trough employs a pair of removable ball dams positioned in the trough on opposite sides of a robot to create a storage area for the balls. A hole of predetermined size in each dam serves as a go
o-go gauge for ball sizing.
