Description

GOLF PUTTER {GOLF PUTTER}

The present invention relates to a golf putter, and more particularly, it is possible to confirm or induce whether a golf ball has a square hit on a sweet spot, thereby improving the golfer's own athletic ability and the ability to read the putting line, and putting accurately The present invention relates to a golf putter capable of correcting posture.

Among golf clubs, a putter is used for a putting operation for precisely pushing a golf ball from the green of the golf course or around the green to the hole.

In particular, considerations for putting are first, the golf ball should be rolled close to the hole in consideration of the distance from the point where the golf ball is placed and the second, the slope of the green and turf conditions.

That is, the golfer decides the distance and direction for hole-in the golf ball with the minimum stroke based on his experience and judgment, and then puts it.

First of all, it is important for the golfer to make the stroke with the appropriate strength in order to move the golf ball the desired distance when putting, but it is also important that the golf ball hit the sweet spot of the putter head correctly.

The sweet spot is a part that can transmit the hitting force to the golf ball most efficiently. Even if the golfer makes a stroke with the same strength, the golf spot is not hit by the sweet spot.

On the other hand, in order for the golfer to move the golf ball in a desired direction, when the golf ball is hit by the putter head, the putter head must square with the advancing direction of the golf ball.

In other words, even if the golfer reads the putting line (Putting Line) correctly, the golf ball moves in an unintended direction unless a square impact is made.

The two important variables described above are factors that determine the golfer's putting ability. In other words, the correct putting is only possible when the putting ball is squarely impacted on the sweet spot with the proper exercise ability.

In view of the foregoing, many kinds of putters have been introduced for improving the putting ability.

However, even if the above putter thinks that the golfer himself is putting in the correct posture and hits the golf ball in the correct direction to the hole cup, in reality, most of the putters cannot be corrected due to problems such as hardened habits and body types.

The present invention devised to improve the above problems is to provide a golf putter to check whether the putting of the golfer through the hearing is made correctly and to make the correct putting.

In addition, the present invention is to provide a golf putter that can determine whether the cause of the unintended putting result is a golfer's own judgment error or lack of exercise ability.

In addition, the present invention is to provide a golf putter to reduce the trial and error while identifying and efficiently improving the vulnerability of the golfer's own putting.

The golf putter according to the present invention includes a head including a hitting surface formed with a sweet spot, a shaft coupled to a fastening hole formed at an upper surface of the head, and a grip mounted at an end thereof, and the heel-side end of the head described above. It includes a plate extending from both sides of the edge, the vibration generated by hitting the golf ball on the hitting surface is transmitted to the above-mentioned plate, it is possible to apply a structure in which sound is generated while the vibration transmitted to the above-mentioned plate is amplified will be.

At this time, as the position at which the golf ball is hit is far from the above-described sweet spot, the vibration is increased and the sound generated from the aforementioned plate is also amplified.

As described above, the golf putter according to the present invention has the following advantages.

First, according to the configuration including a head including a striking surface formed with a sweet spot and a plate that amplifies the vibration that increases while leaving the sweet spot to generate a sound, it is confirmed that the golf ball has a square impact on the sweet spot or is square. It can be induced to be an impact.

In other words, if the desired putting result is not obtained, the golfer may hear whether the cause is due to the golfer's own putting distance and mismatch of the putting line, or whether the putting distance and the putting line were judged correctly but did not make an accurate hit. It can be easily confirmed through.

In other words, the golfer can recognize the golf ball if it hits the spot outside the sweet spot, and thus can identify the cause of the wrong blow if an unwanted putting result is obtained.

In addition, the golfer was hitting the sweet spot and perceived acoustically, but if an unwanted putting result is obtained, the cause may be a misjudge of the putting distance and the putting line.

Therefore, if the golfer repeats the above-described process, the golfer can see which part is vulnerable when he is putting, and can improve the putting ability as a whole.

First, let's define the term.

The head 100 is defined along the length direction, but the grip 500 is held close to the golfer in the address posture, that is, the portion near the golfer's toe is called a heel, and the toe away from the toe of the golfer is tow. It is called (Toe).

Golf putter according to an embodiment of the present invention can be seen that the structure including a head 100, a plate 200 and a shaft 400.

Head 100 is a hitting surface 120 for hitting the golf ball 600 is formed, a sweet spot 122 is formed on the hitting surface 120, hitting the golf ball 600 This is for the golfer to move by the desired distance and direction.

That is, the head 100 may be said to have the same shape as the shape of the block is set up in contact with the thin surface, the length from the heel to the tow is preferably produced enough to hit the golf ball 600. Do.

The shaft 400 is coupled to the fastening hole 102 formed in the upper surface 110 of the head 100 and the grip 500 is mounted at the end thereof. In the address posture, the golfer can grab the grip 500 and putt it. have.

The shaft 400 is mounted to be inclined upward at an angle α as the golfer extends his arm from the toe to the heel.

The plate 200 extends from both sides of the edge of the heel side of the head 100, and the vibration generated by the golf ball 600 hitting the striking surface 120 is transmitted to the plate 200. As the vibration transmitted to the plate 200 is amplified, sound is generated.

That is, as the position where the golf ball 600 is hit is far from the sweet spot 122, the vibration is amplified and the sound generated from the plate 200 is also amplified, and the rest on the hitting surface 120 except for the sweet spot 122 is amplified. When the golf ball 600 hits the portion, that is, the off center zone, a noticeable difference in impact sound occurs. A detailed description thereof will be made later, and this is due to the amplification of the plate 200. Is implemented.

Here, the plate 200 is an accurate RBI for the golf ball 600 according to the hit sound generated from the hitting surface 120 when the golfer hits the golf ball 600 in the address posture (hereinafter, FIGS. 4 and 8). × display unit) can be said to be a technical means for visually grasping whether or not the display unit is aligned.

In other words, whether the golf ball 600 is hit by the sweet spot 122 on the hitting surface 120 is referred to as whether the correct RBI.

Here, the mounting position of the plate 200 may be any of the toe side or the heel end as described above, but it is preferable to be mounted on the heel side end in order to increase visibility to the golfer.

That is, in addition to the function of amplifying the hitting sound so that the sound can be confirmed audibly, as described above, the plate 200 may improve visibility and determine whether the correct putting operation is performed by looking at the movement trajectory of the plate 200.

In general, a golfer tends to swing the head 100 unconsciously when viewed from the Z point of view (Fig. 4) of FIG. 1 when putting the grip 500 (Grip) in the address posture to have an arc shape. .

That is, the plate 200 may correct the putting posture while visually grasping the unconscious habits of the golfer, as well as the movement of the plate 200 such that the golf ball 600 is directed to a hole (hereinafter, not shown). While checking the trajectory, the golfer may move the golf ball 600 in the intended direction.

The present invention can be applied to the embodiments described above, and the main part of the present invention will be described in more detail for the sake of more detailed description.

As described above, the head 100 is a portion in which a sweet spot 122 is provided on the striking surface 120 in order to strike the golf ball 600 and move it in a desired direction, with respect to the top surface 110 of the head 100. The lower surface 140 of the head 100 has a lower plane 142 parallel to the upper surface 110 as shown in FIG. 2, and a lower inclined surface formed to be inclined at an angle β with the ground from both ends of the lower plane 142, respectively. It can be seen that the structure including (144).

Here, the lower inclined surface 144 is provided on the heel side and the toe side of the head 100, respectively, to reduce the probability of the head 100 colliding with the ground, and also to reduce the fine frictional resistance with the air or the ground due to the putting operation. .

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 3, the plate 200 amplifies the hitting sound generated by the golf ball 600 hitting the head 100 as described above, so that the golfer can clearly understand the hearing. .

To this end, the thickness of the plate 200 is formed to be thinner than the thickness of the head 100 can be seen that the amp plate 200 serves as a diaphragm of the speaker.

In addition, it can be seen that the plate 200 has a flat ellipse shape with a large difference in the length of the major axis b and the minor axis a.

That is, the short axis a is an imaginary straight line connecting the upper and lower surfaces 110 and 140 of the head 100 to each other, and the long axis b is from both sides of the head 100 to be orthogonal to the striking surface 120. Each of them extends into a virtual straight line and is formed into an oval flat plate shape as a whole.

The elliptic shape of the plate 200 is a means for minimizing the resistance of the air due to the putting operation by forming a streamlined shape to the flat elliptic shape as described above and to prevent the edge of the plate 200 from colliding with the ground.

The amplification mechanism of the plate 200 will be described with reference to FIG. 5 based on the amplitude and waveform according to the portion where the golf ball 600 is hit.

First, assume a virtual straight line C penetrating the center of the sweet spot 122 on the hitting surface 120, and the portion where the fastening hole 102 to which the shaft 400 is mounted is formed is the straight line C described above. Present in the phase and serve as a fixed end of the vibration and a support point.

For example, if the golf ball 600 is hit at the points ① and ② in Fig. 5, respectively, the moment is the distance from the straight line C to the force applied to the points ① and ② by the golf ball 600, and ℓ and ℓ. 'Is multiplied by each, and moment is relatively larger than point ②.

Accordingly, the vibration is also generated from the straight line C on which the shaft 400 is mounted, where the point ① is larger than the point ②, and the waveform due to the vibration is also formed as W and W ', respectively.

Here, the vibration is a shock applied to the vicinity of the fixed end of the vibration when the golf ball 600 hit the sweet spot 122 on the basis of the straight line (C), not only the amplitude is small, but also the sound due to the vibration Rarely.

In addition, the hitting sound is to generate a difference in the hitting sound while further amplifying the upper and lower amplitudes of the above-described waveforms W and W 'while the plate 200, which is relatively thinner than the head 100, serves as a diaphragm.

At this time, the hitting sound, when the golf ball 600 hit the sweet spot 122 of the hitting surface 120 of the head 100 is made of a metal material, there is almost no ringing, low and small sound was short, From point ② to point ①, the ringing gradually became louder and clearer and higher sound was heard.

Accordingly, it can be seen that the moment generated by the golf ball 600 hit by the off center zone of the hitting surface 120 is a major factor in the mechanism of generating the hitting sound due to vibration.

On the other hand, the present invention, in addition to the structure described above, as shown in Figs. 6 to 8, the golf ball 600 has a square impact (Square impact) to the sweet spot (square impact) with the auditory confirmation by the plate 200 visual It is also possible to apply the embodiment can be confirmed as.

Reference numerals not shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 refer to FIGS. 1 to 5.

That is, the head 100 extends between the toe and the heel of the head 100 from the lower edge of the opposite surface 130 opposite the striking surface 120 and checks the inclination of the ground with a predetermined angle γ . The structure which further provides the plate 300 can be employ | adopted.

When the check plate 300 is inclined with the ground, the putting track of the golfer becomes an arc shape when viewed from the Y 'point of FIG. 6 according to the putting operation, so that the check plate 300 does not strike the ground and smoothly tracks. This is to make putting.

In addition, the check hole 300 is preferably provided on the check plate 300 so that the golf ball 600 hits the sweet spot 122 or the check hole 320 may be confirmed to be hit by the sweet spot 122. Reference numeral 320 largely includes a check groove 322 and a check line 324.

The check groove 322 is a semicircular shape having a diameter of the distance between the tow and the heel of the area forming the sweet spot 122, and the check line 324 is a straight line from the center of the semicircle forming the check groove 322 to the circumference. It may be referred to as a display line formed in a shape.

Therefore, the golfer visually aims the golf ball 600 to hit the sweet spot 122 by visually measuring the check line 324 to pass through the center of the golf ball 600, and consciously putting the motion. The posture is corrected so that the trajectory of the plate 300 is made in a straight direction, and whether the correct putting line is read with an appropriate exercise ability through the hitting sound of the golf ball 600 hit by the hitting surface 120 is determined. It will be possible.

As described above, the present invention checks whether the golfer's putting is made correctly through hearing and enables accurate putting, and may determine whether the cause of the unintended putting result is a golfer's own judgment mistake or lack of exercise ability. It can be seen that the basic technical idea is to provide a golf putter that can identify and efficiently improve the weakness of the golfer's own putting while reducing errors.

While the present invention has been described in connection with certain exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
