AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing sound-generating badminton shuttlecocks require the installation of complex electrical sound-generating devices on the racket or shuttlecock head, resulting in high manufacturing costs and easy damage.

Method used

It adopts a whistle and rubber cup structure. The whistle is installed inside the ball head. The sound is produced by the racket hitting the elastic rubber cup, which deforms and compresses the air to blow the clicker. This eliminates the need for a battery-powered device.

Benefits of technology

It achieves a simple and durable sound production effect, reduces production costs, and increases the entertainment value of playing badminton.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sports and cultural products technology, and in particular relates to a badminton shuttlecock that can produce sound. Background Technology

[0002] Playing badminton is a great form of exercise. It provides a high level of physical activity, requires minimal space, is suitable for all ages, and is inexpensive. To play badminton, you need a racket and shuttlecocks. A shuttlecock typically consists of a head and feathers. The head is made of cork and has about a dozen feathers arranged in a ring around it, forming the shuttlecock.

[0003] To enhance the entertainment value and interest in badminton, existing technologies include sound-generating shuttlecocks. These shuttlecocks typically incorporate an electric sound-generating device on the racket or shuttlecock head. This device includes a battery, a sound generator, and a trigger switch. When the shuttlecock head touches the racket, the trigger switch is activated, and the battery powers the sound generator to produce a sound. However, this design has drawbacks: it requires a complex electric sound-generating device to be installed on the racket or inside the shuttlecock head, resulting in high manufacturing costs and susceptibility to damage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a badminton shuttlecock that can produce sound. It has a simple structure, is not easily damaged, and can produce sound when the racket hits the shuttlecock, thus increasing the entertainment value of playing badminton.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: a badminton shuttlecock that can produce sound includes a shuttlecock head and a dozen or so feathers connected in a ring to the shuttlecock head. The shuttlecock head includes a cylindrical base with a through hole in the center. A whistle that can produce sound when blown is installed in the through hole. The dozen or so feathers are inserted in a ring on the upper side of the cylindrical base. A rubber cup is connected to the lower side of the cylindrical base.

[0006] Preferably, the rubber cup is composed of a hemispherical part and a cylindrical part, with the cylindrical part fitting around the outside of the cylindrical ball seat.

[0007] Preferably, the outer side of the cylindrical ball seat is provided with an annular groove, and the inner side of the cylindrical part of the rubber cup is provided with an annular protrusion corresponding to the annular groove.

[0008] Preferably, the cylindrical part of the rubber cup is bonded to the outside of the cylindrical ball seat by an adhesive.

[0009] Preferably, the whistle consists of a whistle tube and a clicker installed inside the whistle tube. This type of whistle is commonly used in airbag toys and children's shoes; it is also called a BB whistle or a double-bang BB whistle, which produces a sound when blown in both directions.

[0010] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0011] This invention relates to a shuttlecock head consisting of a cylindrical base and a rubber cup. A whistle is installed inside a central through-hole in the cylindrical base. When playing badminton, the racket strikes the shuttlecock head, deforming the elastic rubber cup and compressing the air inside the head, which is then expelled from the whistle tube. This airflow triggers a clicker, producing a sound. The elastic rubber cup then returns to its original shape, and the airflow flows back into the head's interior, triggering the clicker again and producing another sound. Compared to existing sound-producing shuttlecocks, this design eliminates the need for batteries, has a simpler structure, is easier to manufacture, is less prone to damage, and enhances the enjoyment of playing badminton.

[0013] Figure 2 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the decomposed state of the sound-producing badminton shuttlecock of this utility model.

[0014] In the diagram: 1. Ball head, 2. Feather, 3. Cylindrical ball seat, 4. Through hole, 5. Whistle, 6. Rubber cup, 7. Hemispherical part, 8. Cylindrical part, 9. Annular groove, 10. Annular convex strip, 11. Whistle tube, 12. Clicker. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a sound-producing badminton shuttlecock includes a head 1 and twelve feathers 2 connected in a ring to the head. The head 1 includes a cylindrical base 3 with a through hole 4 at its center. A whistle 5 that produces sound when blown is installed inside the through hole 4. The feathers 2 are inserted in a ring on the upper side of the cylindrical base 3, and a rubber cup 6 is connected to the lower side of the cylindrical base 3. The rubber cup 6 consists of a hemispherical part 7 and a cylindrical part 8, with the cylindrical part 8 fitting around the outside of the cylindrical base 3. The outer side of the cylindrical base 3 has an annular groove 9, and the inner side of the cylindrical part 8 of the rubber cup 6 has an annular protrusion 10 corresponding to the annular groove 9. The cylindrical part 8 of the rubber cup 6 is bonded to the outer side of the cylindrical base 3 with adhesive. The whistle 5 consists of a whistle tube 11 and a clicker 12 installed inside the whistle tube 11. This type of whistle is commonly used in airbag toys and children's shoes; it is also called a BB whistle or a double-bang BB whistle, producing sound when blown in both directions.

[0017] The above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Simple modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model do not depart from the essence and scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
