The artificial blades are formed of non-woven material of polyester, polypropylene or fibers glass. The two artificial blades are extended on both sides of the natural shank of an animal e.g. goose. An independent claim is also included for a method for fabricating a shuttle.

Description

1 La présente invention concerne un volant de badminton, ainsi que sonThe present invention relates to a badminton shuttlecock and its

procédé de fabrication. De manière habituelle, un tel volant comprend un bouchon, à partir duquel s'étend une jupe formée par différentes plumes, reliées les unes avec les autres. De façon générale, deux types principaux de volants sont connus. Ainsi, un premier type de volants est formé de plumes entièrement naturelles, prélevées sur des volailles, telles que des oies. Cette solution présente cependant un inconvénient, en ce sens que la production de volants en plumes naturelles nécessite de faire appel à un nombre extrêmement élevé d'animaux. Dans ces conditions, cette production peut être mise en péril dans le cas d'une pénurie de volaille. Par ailleurs, le prix de revient de ces volants est particulièrement élevé. Un second type de volants fait appel à une jupe artificielle, réalisée d'un seul tenant en un matériau synthétique, tel que du polypropylène. Bien que cette solution permette de résoudre le problème de coût et de pénurie d'animaux, elle ne permet pas d'obtenir des volants de bonne qualité. Dans ces conditions, l'invention se propose de remédier à ces différents inconvénients.  manufacturing process. Usually, such a flywheel comprises a plug, from which extends a skirt formed by different feathers, connected to each other. In general, two main types of wheels are known. Thus, a first type of flying is formed of entirely natural feathers, taken from poultry, such as geese. This solution, however, has a disadvantage in that the production of natural feather flounces requires the use of an extremely large number of animals. Under these conditions, this production may be jeopardized in the case of a poultry shortage. Moreover, the cost price of these wheels is particularly high. A second type of flywheel uses an artificial skirt, made in one piece of a synthetic material, such as polypropylene. Although this solution solves the problem of cost and animal shortage, it does not provide good quality steering wheels. Under these conditions, the invention proposes to remedy these various disadvantages.

A cet effet, elle a pour objet un volant de badminton comprenant un bouchon, ainsi qu'une jupe formée de plusieurs plumes, chaque plume comprenant une hampe et deux lames, caractérisé en ce que chaque plume est formée d'une hampe naturelle, ainsi que de lames artificielles.  For this purpose, it relates to a badminton shuttlecock including a cap, and a skirt formed of several feathers, each feather comprising a shaft and two blades, characterized in that each feather is formed of a natural shaft, and than artificial blades.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention les lames artificielles sont réalisées en un non-tissé de polyester, de polypropylène ou de fibres de verre. L'invention a également pour objet un procédé de fabrication du volant tel que défini ci-dessus, dans lequel 2 on prélève une hampe naturelle sur un animal, on réalise de manière séparée les lames artificielles, et on rapporte les lames artificielles sur cette hampe naturelle, de manière à former les plumes constitutives de la jupe du volant.  According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention the artificial blades are made of a nonwoven of polyester, polypropylene or glass fibers. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the steering wheel as defined above, in which 2 a natural shaft is taken from an animal, the artificial blades are made separately and the artificial blades are reported on this shaft. natural, so as to form the constituent feathers of the skirt of the steering wheel.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, on rapporte les lames sur la hampe par collage. L'invention va être décrite ci-après, en référence aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif, dans lesquels : - la figure 1 est une vue de côté, illustrant un volant de badminton conforme à l'invention ; - la figure 2 est une vue de face illustrant une plume appartenant à ce volant ; et - la figure 3 est une vue de face, illustrant une étape de la réalisation de la plume de la figure 2. La figure 1 illustre un volant de badminton, qui comprend de manière classique un bouchon 2, à partir duquel s'étend une jupe 4, qui est formée de différentes plumes 10, reliées les unes aux autres de façon habituelle par un cerclage 6. La figure 2 illustre de façon plus précise une plume 10, qui comprend une hampe 12 ainsi que deux lames 14, s'étendant de part et d'autre de cette hampe, de manière à peu près symétrique. Dans l'exemple illustré, ces deux lames 14 sont réalisées d'un seul tenant. Cependant, à titre de variante non représentée, elles peuvent être séparées l'une de l'autre. En vue de la réalisation de chaque plume 10, on utilise tout d'abord une hampe naturelle 12, à savoir prélevée sur un animal, tel une oie. On réalise par ailleurs séparément, par tout procédé approprié, les deux lames 14. Celles-ci sont artificielles, à savoir qu'elles sont constituées d'un matériau non naturel, qui est par exemple un non-tissé en polyester. Les lames artificielles 3 ainsi produites sont rapportées sur la hampe naturelle, selon la flèche F à la figure 3, par tout moyen approprié, notamment par collage. Le volant conforme à l'invention, comprenant une hampe naturelle et des lames artificielles, représente un compromis satisfaisant entre les deux solutions existantes. En effet, l'utilisation de lames artificielles permet de s'affranchir d'une éventuelle pénurie d'animaux, sur lesquels sont prélevées des plumes. Ainsi, chaque animal est susceptible de fournir de nombreuses hampes naturelles, qui interviennent dans l'invention. Par comparaison, un même animal ne peut fournir que quelques plumes entières, équipant les volants naturels de l'art antérieur. De plus, le volant conforme à l'invention présente une qualité nettement supérieure à celle des volants artificiels, réalisés dans l'art antérieur. En effet, le volant de l'invention comprend des plumes séparées les unes des autres, de sorte qu'il présente une forme globale voisine de celle des volants en plumes entièrement naturelles. Ceci est à comparer avec les volants artificiels de l'état de la technique, qui font appel à une jupe synthétique d'un seul tenant, dont les caractéristiques sont très différentes de celles des volants en plumes entièrement naturelles.  According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, the blades are reported on the shaft by gluing. The invention will be described below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, given by way of non-limiting example, in which: - Figure 1 is a side view, illustrating a badminton wheel according to the invention; - Figure 2 is a front view illustrating a feather belonging to the steering wheel; and FIG. 3 is a front view, illustrating a step of the embodiment of the pen of FIG. 2. FIG. 1 illustrates a badminton shuttlecock, which conventionally comprises a plug 2, from which extends a skirt 4, which is formed of different feathers 10, connected to each other in the usual manner by a strapping 6. Figure 2 illustrates more precisely a feather 10, which comprises a shaft 12 and two blades 14, extending on both sides of this shaft, almost symmetrically. In the illustrated example, these two blades 14 are made in one piece. However, as a variant not shown, they can be separated from each other. For the realization of each pen 10, firstly uses a natural shaft 12, namely taken from an animal, such as a goose. Separately, by any suitable method, the two blades 14 are produced separately. These are artificial, ie they consist of a non-natural material, which is for example a polyester nonwoven. The artificial blades 3 thus produced are attached to the natural shaft, according to the arrow F in FIG. 3, by any appropriate means, in particular by gluing. The steering wheel according to the invention, comprising a natural shaft and artificial blades, represents a satisfactory compromise between the two existing solutions. Indeed, the use of artificial blades makes it possible to overcome a possible shortage of animals, on which are taken feathers. Thus, each animal is capable of providing many natural stems, which are involved in the invention. By comparison, the same animal can provide only a few full feathers, equipping the natural flywheels of the prior art. In addition, the steering wheel according to the invention has a quality significantly higher than that of artificial wheels, made in the prior art. Indeed, the steering wheel of the invention comprises feathers separated from each other, so that it has a global shape similar to that of flying feathers all natural. This is to be compared with the artificial ruffles of the state of the art, which use a synthetic skirt in one piece, whose characteristics are very different from those of all-natural feather flounces.
