Description

DEUTSCHESGERMAN

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf die Ausbildung der öffnung der Außenhülle eines Fußballes, durch welche die Blase oder Seele eingeführt wird und durch welche das Aufpumpen dieser Blase erfolgt.The invention relates to the formation of the opening of the outer shell of a soccer ball through which the bladder or soul is introduced and through which this bladder is inflated.

Die üblichen Fußbälle bestehen aus einer Anzahl von Einzelteilen, die zu einer Hülle zusammengesetzt sind, aus einem widerstandsfähigen Material, meist Leder, Kunststoffen, Textilien od. dgl., sowie einer Blase oder Seele, welche aufgeblasen werden kann. Um diese Blase in den Fußball einführen zu können, ist an einer Stelle der Außenhülle eine Öffnung vorgesehen. Bei dem am meisten verwendeten Konstruktionen wird diese öffnung nach Aufpumpen der Blase durch Verschnüren verschlossen. Um einerseits ein Eindringen von Schmutz und andererseits ein Austreten eines Teiles der aufgepumpten Blase zu verhindern, ist meist noch eine Lasche vorgesehen, ähnlich wie dies bei dem Schnürverschluß von Schuhen der Fall ist.The usual soccer balls consist of a number of individual parts that are put together to form a shell are made of a resistant material, mostly leather, plastics, textiles or the like, as well as one Bubble or soul that can be inflated. To be able to introduce this bubble into football, an opening is provided at one point on the outer shell. In the most widely used constructions this opening is closed by tying up after the bladder has been inflated. To one hand one To prevent the ingress of dirt and, on the other hand, a part of the inflated bladder from escaping, a flap is usually also provided, similar to the one used for the lace-up closure of shoes Case is.

Es sind weiter Fußbälle bekannt, bei denen die Hülle ein rundes Loch von etwa 2 cm Durchmesser aufweist, welches durch ein Verschlußstück ausgefüllt wird, das aus einer der Lochgröße entsprechenden Scheibe mit einer daran befestigten Unterlage größeren Durchmessers aus einem elastischen Material, meist Leder, verbunden ist. Dieses Verschlußstück wird nach Aufpumpen und nach Hineinstecken des Schlauchansatzes durch das runde Loch in der Hülle nach innen geschoben, so daß der runde Teil des Verschlußstückes das Loch in der Hülle vollkommen ausfüllt, während sich die Unterlage von innen gegen die Hülle legt und verhindert, daß der mit ihr verbundene runde Teil wieder herausfällt.There are also soccer balls known in which the shell has a round hole about 2 cm in diameter has, which is filled by a closure piece that corresponds to one of the hole size Disc with a larger diameter pad attached to it made of an elastic material, mostly leather. This closure piece is after inflation and after inserting the Hose extension pushed in through the round hole in the sleeve, so that the round part of the closure piece completely fills the hole in the cover, while the pad is against the inside Cover lays and prevents the round part connected to it from falling out again.

Wenn auch durch die zuletzt beschriebene Einrichtung eine wesentliche Verbesserung gegenüber dem Schnürverschluß erzielt werden konnte, so haftet ihr doch noch der Nachteil an, daß es äußerst schwierig war, besonders bei stark aufgepumpter Blase, das Verschlußstück durch die runde öffnung in der Hülle einzubringen und zu erreichen, daß sich die Unterlage gleichmäßig von innen gegen die Hülle legen konnte. Es kam auch, insbesondere nach längerem Gebrauch, vor, daß das Verschlußstück bei plötzlichen starken Stoßen herausgetrieben wurde, so daß die Blase frei lag und der aufgepumpte Schlauch unter Umständen heraustreten konnte.Even if the device described last is a significant improvement over the Lace closure could be achieved, so it still has the disadvantage that it is extremely difficult was, especially with a heavily inflated bladder, the closure piece through the round opening in the envelope to bring in and to achieve that the base could lay evenly from the inside against the shell. It also happened, especially after prolonged use, that the closure piece when suddenly strong Impact was driven out so that the bladder was exposed and the inflated tube under certain circumstances could step out.

Es sind auch Fußbälle bekanntgeworden mit Fußballhüllen, die einen halbkreisförmigen Schlitz aufweisen, wobei der durch diesen Schlitz entstehende Lappen einen Teil der Fußballhülle bildet und mit dieser fest verbunden ist. Der Lappen ist mit einer darunter befestigten Zwischenlasche ausgerüstet, deren Fläche wesentlich größer ist als die des Lappens, um mit Sicherheit den U-förmigen Schlitz zu überdecken.Footballs have also become known with football covers that have a semicircular slot, wherein the flap created by this slot forms part of the football cover and with it this is firmly connected. The flap is equipped with an intermediate flap attached underneath Area is much larger than that of the flap in order to cover the U-shaped slot with certainty.

Überdies ist bei derartigen Fußbällen zur Verstärkung der Fußballhülle im Bereich des U-förmigen Schlitzes eine mit dieser verbundene Unterlage vorhanden. Es hat sich jedoch herausgestellt, daß auch diese Ausbildung von Fußbällen nicht den Bedürfnissen der Praxis genügt, da die Ausbildung des Verschlusses kein sicheres Verschlossenhalten der öffnung gewährleistet. Allen diesen Mängeln der bekannten Fußballhüllen soll die Erfindung abhelfen.In addition, in such soccer balls, to reinforce the soccer cover, is in the area of the U-shaped slot an associated document is available. However, it has been found that this training of soccer balls does not meet the needs of the practice, since the formation of the lock no secure locking of the opening guaranteed. All these shortcomings of the well-known football sleeves the invention is intended to remedy this.

Gemäß der Erfindung weist bei einer Fußballhülle aus einem elastischen Stoff, z. B. Gummi, plastischem Kunststoff od. dgl., vorzugsweise aus Leder, mit einer durch einen U-förmigen Einschnitt gebildeten Öffnung, wobei der durch diesen Einschnitt entstandene Lappen mit einer unter und an ihm befestigten elastischen Unterlage versehen ist, deren Ausmaße die des Lappens wesentlich überschreiten, die unterhalb des Lappens z. B. durch Nähen oder Kleben befestigte elastische Unterlage oder Zwischenlasche ein Durchgangsloch für den Schlauchansatz der Fußballblase auf, wobei die Öffnung in der Fußballhülle und das Loch in der Zwischenlasche derart gegeneinander verschoben angebracht sind, daß sie sich nicht decken. Die Fußballhülle ist dabei an der Verschluß stelle durch eine fest mit ihr verbundene Unterlage verstärkt. According to the invention has in a football cover made of an elastic material, for. B. rubber, plastic Plastic or the like, preferably made of leather, with an opening formed by a U-shaped incision, the flap created by this incision with an elastic attached under and on it Support is provided, the dimensions of which significantly exceed those of the flap, which is below the flap z. B. by sewing or gluing attached elastic pad or intermediate flap a through hole for the tube attachment of the football bladder, whereby the opening in the football cover and the Hole in the intermediate flap are attached so shifted against each other that they do not coincide. The football cover is reinforced at the closure point by a pad firmly attached to it.

In den Fig. 1 bis 4 der Zeichnung ist ein Beispiel der Erfindung dargestellt und im nachstehenden beschrieben. Es handelt sich, wie ausdrücklich bemerkt sei, nur um eines der möglichen Ausführungsbeispiele. Selbstverständlich ist die Erfindung nicht auf das gebrachte Beispiel beschränkt, sondern umfaßt sämtliche sonstigen Möglichkeiten, sofern nur von dem Grundgedanken Gebrauch gemacht ist, wonach der Läppen1 to 4 of the drawings, an example of the invention is shown and described below. As is expressly noted, it is only one of the possible exemplary embodiments. Of course, the invention is not limited to the example given, but includes all other possibilities, provided that the basic idea is used, according to which the lapping
