摘要： An inflatable sport ball (10), such as a basketball, a football, a soccer ball, a volley ball or a playground ball, is provided with a self-contained inflation mechanism for inflating or more likely adding pressure to the ball. The mechanism is a self-contained, manually operable pumping chamber which is inside of the ball and which is operable from outside of the ball to compress the chamber and pump ambient air into the ball.

摘要： An inflatable sport ball (10), such as a basketball, a football, a soccer ball, a volley ball or a playground ball, is provided with self-contained inflation means for inflating or more likely adding pressure to the ball. The inflation means is a vessel (22) inside of the ball containing a high pressure gas which may be bled from the vessel into the interior of the ball surrounding the vessel such as by valve means operable from the outside of the ball.

摘要： A method of manufacturing a sport ball (10) includes providing a fluid impervious bladder (12), providing apparatus for penetrating the bladder and including apparatus for receiving an object in sealing engagement, providing a plug (25) dimensioned and configured to engage in sealing relationship the apparatus for receiving in sealing engagement, inserting the plug into the apparatus for receiving, inflating the bladder, and forming additional layers (14, 16) of material on the bladder that is part of a complete sport ball. Thereafter, the method includes providing a self-contained inflation mechanism (82) dimensioned and configured to be disposed within the envelope of the sport ball and dimensioned and configured to engage the apparatus for receiving, removing the plug from the apparatus for receiving, and placing the inflation mechanism into the apparatus for receiving.
