Artificial feather shuttlecock and method of manufacturing same.

摘要

An artificial feather shuttlecock (40) has a cork having a half round head (41) and 16 artificial feathers (30) stuck on it so as to make the outer appearance and function of the artificial feather shuttlecock (40) similar to that of the conventional shuttlectock made of natural feather. The cork is preferably made of polyurethane. A method of producing artificial feather shuttlecock (40) includes punching and pressing fiber woven or fiber non-woven cloth to produce artificial feather vanes as a first step; putting vanes into the vane part of a plastic injection mold and the plastics fiber compound into the central axis part of the mold to form a complete artifical feather (30) as the second step; and inserting the lower umbilicus part (32) of 16 such feathers in a cork mold containing foaming polyurethane to form a complete shuttlecock (40) as the third step.
