| 摘要 |
This invention provides a flag (1), consisting of a flexible membrane (2), a shaft (3) and distending means comprising rods (4.1) and (4.2). The shaft (3) is hollow and forms a sleeve about a flag staff (7). The flexible membrane (2) has a leading end (5) and a trailing end (6). The leading end (5) is removably attached to the sleeve (3). Each rod (4.1) and (4.2) has a fixing end and a free end. The fixing ends are friction fixed to the sleeve (3) by means of a collar (8) located on the sleeve, and the free ends are retained in pockets (6.1) and (6.2) provided in the trailing end (6). In use, the rods (4.1) and (4.2) exerts a pressure from within the membrane (2), resulting in the distended state of the flag (1) under all weather conditions. |
