Patent

CA 2123165

A basketball having a surface devoid of lines, seams stitching or other markings that span the circumference of the ball for forming a uniform and continuous surface. The seamless basketball has a uniform stippling along its entire surface and integrally a part thereof and may have a logo printed thereon. The ball is formed from a molded outer cover formed from two hemispheres having an inflatable bladder positioned therein. The inflation valve is hidden from view under the cover or, if exposed, is flush with the cover and of the same color as the cover. The lack of seams, stitching or other markings spanning the circumference of the outer surface of the ball causes the ball to have no particular orientation. Therefore, the user of the seamless basketball is not inclined to align the ball in a particular fashion prior to shooting the same. As such, wasted time is eliminated and a quicker release and greater concentration is gained. Additionally, the ball is subject to a truer bounce because of the more uniform spherical nature of the same.

Ballon de basket-ball à surface uniforme et continue, dénuée de lignes, de coutures ou autres marques traversant sa circonférence. Le ballon sans joint a une surface entièrement couverte d'une grenure uniforme, en faisant partie intégrante, et sur laquelle peut être imprimé un logo. Le ballon est formé d'une enveloppe extérieure moulée constituée de deux hémisphères renfermant un sac gonflable. La valve de gonflage est cachée à la vue sous l'enveloppe ou, si elle est apparente, se trouve d'affleurement avec l'enveloppe et de la même couleur que celle-ci. L'absence de joints, de coutures ou autres marques sur la circonférence de l'enveloppe extérieure permet d'obtenir un ballon sans orientation particulière. L'utilisateur ne sera donc pas porté à aligner le ballon de façon particulière avant de le lancer. Une perte de temps est ainsi éliminée et l'utilisateur y gagne en vitesse d'exécution et en degré de concentration. De plus, le ballon rebondit de façon plus normale en raison de sa sphéricité plus uniforme.
