Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of badminton technology, specifically, to a feather structure and a badminton shuttlecock thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Badminton is a sport where the feathers are traditionally made from goose or duck feathers. However, these feathers are prone to breakage and shedding during play, significantly reducing the shuttlecock's durability. Therefore, synthetic shuttlecocks made with plastic feathers were developed. While these synthetic shuttlecocks are more durable, their weight is relatively large, greatly diminishing the playing experience.

[0003] However, among the aforementioned types of badminton shuttlecocks, whether they are made of goose or duck feathers or are made of plastic, the feathers are all single-layered. When the feathers are damaged, broken, or the feather fibers become scattered and fall off, the single-layered feathers can easily cause the shuttlecock's flight trajectory to be unstable. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the defects of the existing technology, this utility model provides a feather structure and a shuttlecock, which aims to solve the problems in the existing technology.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a feather structure, including a feather connecting post, one end of the feather connecting post is provided with a base insertion part, and the other end is integrally provided with a first feather, and at least one layer of second feather is provided on one side of the first feather, and at least one layer of second feather and the feather connecting post are integrally structured.

[0006] In the above-mentioned feather structure, both the first feather and the second feather are made of non-woven fabric.

[0007] In the above-described feather structure, the width of the first feather is greater than the width of the second feather.

[0008] In one of the above-mentioned feather structures, the base insertion part includes a pointed tip disposed at the end of the feather connecting post.

[0009] In the above-mentioned feather structure, multiple barbs are provided on both sides of the feather connecting post.

[0010] A badminton shuttlecock includes the aforementioned feather structure and a shuttlecock head base. The base insertion part is inserted into the shuttlecock head base, and a plurality of feather connecting posts are connected by connecting ropes. The connecting ropes are wound around barbs, and at least one barb is inserted into the shuttlecock head base.

[0011] The beneficial effect of this utility model is that by setting a first feather and at least one second feather on the feather connecting post, at least two layers of feathers are formed, so that during the flight of the badminton shuttlecock, at least two layers of feathers can open and close and swing under the action of airflow, making the badminton shuttlecock fly more stably. Moreover, with at least two layers of feathers, even if a single layer of feathers is damaged or split, the shuttlecock can still maintain its flight trajectory, making it more durable. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the feather structure in this embodiment.

[0013] Figure 2 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the badminton shuttlecock in this embodiment.

[0014] In the diagram: 1. Feather connecting post; 2. First feather; 3. Second feather; 4. Barb; 5. Point; 6. Ball head base; 7. Connecting rope. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, a feather structure in this embodiment includes a feather connecting post 1. One end of the feather connecting post 1 is provided with a base insertion part, and the other end is integrally provided with a first feather 2. At least one layer of second feathers 3 is provided on one side of the first feather 2, and the at least one layer of second feathers 3 is integrally formed with the feather connecting post 1. In this embodiment, by providing the first feather 2 and at least one layer of second feathers 3 on the feather connecting post 1, at least two layers of feathers are formed. This allows the shuttlecock to open and close and swing under the action of airflow during flight, making the shuttlecock's flight more stable. Moreover, with at least two layers of feathers, even if a single layer of feathers is damaged or split, the shuttlecock can still maintain its flight trajectory, resulting in higher durability.

[0017] It is worth noting that both the first feather 2 and the second feather 3 are made of non-woven fabric, which makes the feathers more durable. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first feather 2 and the second feather 3 are stacked vertically. The feather connecting post 1 is connected to the central axis of the first feather 2 and the second feather 3, allowing the first feather 2 and the second feather 3 to open and close during the shuttlecock's flight. The feather connecting post 1 is injection molded. Before injection molding, the feathers can be placed in the mold so that the feather connecting post 1 forms an integral structure with the feathers during molding. The injection molding process is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0018] It is also worth noting that the width of the first feather 2 in this embodiment is greater than the width of the second feather 3. In some embodiments, a second layer of third feathers may also be provided, with the width gradually decreasing with each layer of feathers stacked.

[0019] The base insertion part of this embodiment includes a pointed tip 5 at the end of the feather connecting post 1, so that the pointed tip 5 can be inserted into the ball head base 6 for sealing and fixing. Multiple barbs 4 are provided on both sides of the feather connecting post 1.

[0020] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also discloses a badminton shuttlecock, including the above-mentioned feather structure. The shuttlecock also includes a shuttlecock head base 6, with a base insertion part inserted into the shuttlecock head base 6. Multiple feather connecting posts 1 are connected by connecting ropes 7, which are wound around barbs 4. At least one barb 4 is inserted into the shuttlecock head base 6. Specifically, the pointed end 5 is inserted into the shuttlecock head base 6, which allows the barb 4 to hook into the shuttlecock head base 6 to prevent detachment. After further sealing and fixing, the structure is more stable and durable. The connecting rope 7 connects multiple feather connecting posts 1, making the multiple feather connecting posts 1 more stable and preventing loosening and shaking. Under the action of multiple layers of feathers, the flight trajectory of the shuttlecock is more stable during flight.

[0021] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
