Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2012164174A1] The invention relates to a ball, particularly for basketball practice, and to the method for manufacturing same. The ball includes an inflatable bladder (1) covered with one or more flexible elongate elements (2) wound around the surface of the bladder. The ball also includes an outer covering comprising at least two outer panels (3) separated by at least one strip (4) of elastomeric material. The outer panels and the strip(s) are placed directly onto the wound flexible elongate element(s). The manufacture method particularly involves covering the inflatable bladder with the flexible elongate element(s) wound on the surface of the bladder, and placing the outer covering, including the outer panels separated by the strip(s) of elastomeric material. The placement of the outer covering is achieved by placing the outer panels and the strip(s) directly onto the wound flexible elongate element(s). Thus, the ball is less rigid and lighter, enabling users, such as children, to feel less pain when catching the ball with the hands, and to shoot the ball more easily and farther.
