Abstract

A lighting bounce ball comprises a bouncy hollow ball body a light source, and a cover layer. One end of the ball body is communicated with a nozzle and the other end thereof opposite to the nozzle is concavely formed a cup body. The nozzle and the cup body are coaxially arranged. The light source is concavely arranged in the cup body. The cover layer covers an outer surface of the bouncy hollow ball body and the cup body so that the nozzle is partially exposed externally to the bouncy hollow ball body. The ball may be lighted while playing so as to make much funner and attract the younger to play. In addition, the track of the ball may be obviously seen in the dark or a place with insufficient light. It may be used in more adaptable places.

Claims
