A lot of enthusiasm pumped this 1880 project to a very
wide popularity during it’s first 10 years, but linguistic
and social inconsistencies within set it’s fall and
disappearence by the turn if the century. Currently Volapük
is cultivated for fun by some enthusiasts, mostly esperantists.
I don’t think they use any logo or badge.

Rodríguez [rod97] shows
a symbol consisting of a world map (two hemispheres) over
a Mercury rod (with wings and snakes) and a plaque with
the motto overall. This read "Menad bal, pük bal",
meaning "One humanity, one language". (Some times a
variation with dative and accusative is used instead
"Menade bal, püki bal".)
