Description

ゴルフティーGolf tee
　本発明は、ゴルフ用のティーに関し、発光体のうち特に発光素子を内蔵したゴルフティーに関する。 The present invention relates to a golf tee, and more particularly, to a golf tee having a light-emitting element incorporated therein.
　ゴルフ競技においてゴルフティーは、ティーグランドやプレーインググランド上で打球の際に使用され、先端を地面に差し込み、上端にゴルフボールを載置し、ウッドあるいはアイアンのクラブで載置されたゴルフボールを打つものである。 In golf competitions, golf tees are used when hitting on a tee ground or playing ground, with the tip inserted into the ground, a golf ball placed on the top, and a golf ball placed on a wood or iron club. It is something to strike.
　しかし、このゴルフティーは、ボールを打ち放った際、前後左右のいずれかに飛んでしまうことがある上、見つけることが難しく、そのために時間を要し、プレー遅延をもたらし後続のパーティーにも迷惑がかかるという問題が指摘されてきた。
　また、プレーヤーは打ち放ったボールの行方を早く追いすぎてヘッドアップの原因となっていた。 However, this golf tee may fly to the front, back, left or right when you hit the ball, and it is difficult to find it, which takes time, delays play, and is annoying to subsequent parties Has been pointed out.
In addition, the player chased the whereabouts of the ball he had hit too quickly, causing a head-up.
　この点に関して、打撃後に拡開板が外方へ開き、空気抵抗により遠方まで飛ばされない構成としたゴルフ用ティー（特許文献１）や、側面に通気孔を設けた円筒台状とし、中空部や通気孔からの空気抵抗により共飛びする距離を抑制するゴルフティー（特許文献２）など、ゴルフティーが抜地飛去したときに遠方まで飛ばないような特徴を備えた技術が開示されている。 In this regard, the golf tee (Patent Document 1) has a configuration in which the expansion plate opens outward after hitting and is not blown away by air resistance, or a cylindrical base with a vent hole on the side surface. A technique having a feature that does not fly far away when the golf tee flies away is disclosed, such as a golf tee (Patent Document 2) that suppresses the co-flying distance due to air resistance from the pores.
　一方、ボールを打ち放った際に飛んでいったゴルフティーを容易に発見できるよう、原料樹脂に蛍光物質を混合して成形したゴルフゲーム付属品（特許文献３）や、蛍光塗料を塗布したゴルフ用ティー（特許文献４）が開示されている。 On the other hand, a golf game accessory (Patent Document 3) in which a fluorescent material is mixed with a raw material resin and a golf ball coated with a fluorescent paint so that the golf tee that flew when the ball was released can be easily found. Tee (Patent Document 4) is disclosed.

　特許文献１に記載のゴルフ用ティーは、拡開板をゴルフクラブで直接打撃することによる破損が危惧される。特にアイアンによるティーショット時にはアイアンのソール部分が拡開板を直撃して破損する可能性が高い。また、通常、ティーショット後はズボン等のポケットにしまうことが多いため、ティーショットを打つたびに拡開板を閉じなければならず、取り扱いが面倒である。 The golf tee described in Patent Document 1 is feared to be damaged by directly hitting the expansion plate with a golf club. In particular, at the time of a tee shot with an iron, there is a high possibility that the sole portion of the iron hits the expansion plate and breaks. In addition, usually after a tee shot, it is often stored in a pocket such as trousers. Therefore, each time a tee shot is made, the expansion plate must be closed, which is cumbersome to handle.
　特許文献２に記載のゴルフティーは、形状が従来のゴルフティーと極めて相違することから、プレイヤーがアドレス（打撃準備）に入るときに抱くであろう違和感が拭えない。また、地中に突き刺して使用するものではなく、また、空気抵抗を受けるように設計された円筒状という形状のため、ティーアップ時においても空気抵抗を受けてしまうので、風が強い日のプレーでは安定しない。 Since the golf tee described in Patent Document 2 is very different in shape from the conventional golf tee, the uncomfortable feeling that the player will have when entering the address (preparation for hitting) cannot be wiped off. In addition, it is not used to pierce into the ground, and because it has a cylindrical shape designed to receive air resistance, it will receive air resistance even when teeing up, so play on a windy day Then it is not stable.
　一方、原料樹脂に蛍光物質を混合して成形したゴルフゲーム付属品（特許文献３）や蛍光塗料を塗布したゴルフ用ティー（特許文献４）は、蛍光物質を混合しない樹脂で成形したゴルフティー、或いは蛍光塗料を塗布しないゴルフティーと比べると抜地飛去したゴルフティーを見つけるのは容易となろう。しかし、曇天時や野外照明点灯前の夕方のプレーにおいては蛍光物質の効果が常に発揮しうるとは限らない。 On the other hand, golf game accessories (Patent Document 3) formed by mixing a fluorescent material with a raw material resin and golf tees (Patent Document 4) coated with a fluorescent paint are golf tees formed of a resin not mixed with a fluorescent material, Alternatively, it will be easier to find a golf tee that has been removed from the ground as compared to a golf tee that is not coated with fluorescent paint. However, the effect of the fluorescent material cannot always be exhibited in cloudy weather or in the evening play before the outdoor lighting is turned on.
　そこで本発明の目的は、取り扱いが面倒でなく、外見上は従来のゴルフティーと変わりなく、且つ使用時に安定し、そして曇天時や夕方のプレーにおいても抜地飛去したゴルフティーを容易に発見可能なゴルフティーを提供することを課題とする。 Therefore, the object of the present invention is to find a golf tee that is not cumbersome to handle, looks the same as a conventional golf tee, is stable during use, and has been dislodged even in cloudy or evening play. It is an object to provide a possible golf tee.
　上記課題を解決するため、請求項１に係るゴルフティーは、地面に差し込み自立させる先細り形状の支持部分と、その支持部分に連なり地面よりも上方へ突出してゴルフボールを載せる載置部分とからなり、発光素子び電源を内蔵したことを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above-described problems, a golf tee according to claim 1 includes a tapered support portion that is inserted into the ground and is self-supporting, and a placement portion that is connected to the support portion and projects upward from the ground to place a golf ball thereon. It is characterized by incorporating a light emitting element and a power source.
　請求項２に係るゴルフティーは、請求項１に記載の構成において、支持部分に発光素子を内蔵したことを特徴とする。 The golf tee according to claim 2 is characterized in that, in the configuration according to claim 1, a light emitting element is built in the support portion.
　請求項３に係るゴルフティーは、請求項１又は請求項２の構成において、発光素子は点滅することを特徴とする。 The golf tee according to claim 3 is characterized in that in the configuration of claim 1 or claim 2, the light emitting element blinks.
　請求項１に記載のゴルフティーによれば、内臓した発光素子が放つ光により曇天時や野外照明点灯前の夕方のプレーにおいても、抜地飛去したゴルフティーを容易に見つけ出すことが可能である。 According to the golf tee of the first aspect, it is possible to easily find the golf tee that has been removed from the ground even in cloudy weather or in the evening play before the outdoor lighting is turned on by the light emitted from the built-in light emitting element. .
　請求項２に記載のゴルフティーによれば、更に支持部分に発光素子や電源を内蔵したことで、クラブヘッドが発光素子や電源を直撃するおそれがなく、ゴルフティーの耐久性が確保される。 According to the golf tee of the second aspect, since the light emitting element and the power source are further incorporated in the support portion, there is no possibility that the club head directly hits the light emitting element and the power source, and the durability of the golf tee is ensured.
　請求項３に記載のゴルフティーによれば、発光素子が点滅して光を放つことにより、プレイヤーはゴルフティーの所在をより容易に発見することが可能となる。 According to the golf tee described in claim 3, the light emitting element blinks and emits light, so that the player can more easily find the location of the golf tee.

One (Supply Limited) is used, and this is blinked with a pin-type lithium battery (“BR425 / 2B” manufactured by Panasonic).
　図中、１０は本体、１１は支持部分、１２は載置部分、１３はスイッチ、１４は発光ダイオード、１５はピン形リチウム電池、１６はコイルスプリングである。 In the figure, 10 is a main body, 11 is a supporting portion, 12 is a mounting portion, 13 is a switch, 14 is a light emitting diode, 15 is a pin-type lithium battery, and 16 is a coil spring.
　本実施形態に係る全長略７７ｍｍのゴルフティー１０は、地面に差し込んで自立させる直径略７ｍｍ径の先細り形状をなした支持部分１１と、その支持部分に連なり地面よりも上方へ突出し、先端にゴルフボールを載せる直径略１０ｍｍの載置部分１２とからなり、該支持部分１１の内側に発光体である発光ダイオード１４を設けてなる（図１）。 A golf tee 10 having a total length of approximately 77 mm according to the present embodiment includes a support portion 11 having a tapered shape having a diameter of approximately 7 mm that is inserted into the ground to be self-supporting, and projects upward from the ground in connection with the support portion. A mounting portion 12 having a diameter of about 10 mm on which a ball is placed is provided, and a light emitting diode 14 as a light emitter is provided inside the support portion 11 (FIG. 1).
　更に本体１内にはピン型リチウム電池１５が１本内蔵され、載置部分１２のうち上端のゴルフボールを支える部分を螺合式のスイッチ１３とした（図１）。 Further, one pin-type lithium battery 15 is built in the main body 1, and the portion of the mounting portion 12 that supports the golf ball at the upper end is a screw-type switch 13 (FIG. 1).
　発光ダイオード１４とピン形リチウム電池１５との間には電気伝導体からなるコイルスプリング１６が張架され、設定Ａと接点Ｂを接続する。接点Ａは発光ダイオード１４の一本の端子に接している（図１）。 A coil spring 16 made of an electric conductor is stretched between the light emitting diode 14 and the pin-type lithium battery 15 to connect the setting A and the contact B. The contact A is in contact with one terminal of the light emitting diode 14 (FIG. 1).
　また、コイルスプリング１６により、ピン形リチウム電池１５は長手方向上方に付勢され、通常、接点Ｃと接点Ｄとを適宜離間している。ここで接点Ｃは発光ダイオード１４の他方の端子につながれ、接点Ｄはピン形リチウム電池１５の電極を示す（図１）。
　なお、必要に応じて電圧や電量を制御するために接点Ａと接点Ｂとの間に抵抗を設けても良い。 Further, the pin-type lithium battery 15 is urged upward in the longitudinal direction by the coil spring 16, and the contact C and the contact D are normally separated appropriately. Here, the contact C is connected to the other terminal of the light emitting diode 14, and the contact D shows an electrode of the pin-type lithium battery 15 (FIG. 1).

　図中、２０は本体、２１は支持部分、２２は載置部分、２３はスイッチ、２４は発光ダイオード、２５はピン形リチウム電池、２６はコイルスプリングである。 In the figure, 20 is a main body, 21 is a supporting portion, 22 is a mounting portion, 23 is a switch, 24 is a light emitting diode, 25 is a pin-type lithium battery, and 26 is a coil spring.
　さらに、図示しないが、各発光ダイオードを点滅点灯させるために０．１２５秒周期のＬＥＤフラッシャーＩＣ（Ｍ３４－８Ｌ：Ｂｏｗｉｎ　Ｅｌｅｃｔｒｏｎｉｃ　Ｃｏｍｐａｎｙ製)と、所定値の抵抗を実装する。 Further, although not shown, an LED flasher IC (M34-8L: manufactured by Bowin Electronic Company) with a period of 0.125 seconds and a resistor having a predetermined value are mounted to blink each light emitting diode.
　本実施の形態において、ピン形リチウム電池２５ａのプラス極は接触片αと接しており、該接触片αは発光ダイオードの（－）端子と接続する（図４）。 In the present embodiment, the positive electrode of the pin-type lithium battery 25a is in contact with the contact piece α, and the contact piece α is connected to the (−) terminal of the light emitting diode (FIG. 4).
　接点Ｇ、即ちピン形リチウム電池２５ａの（－極）は、接点Ｈと接続し、さらに接点Ｈから遊架した接触片βは、電源ＯＮのときにピン形リチウム電池２５ｂのプラス極に接触する（図４）。 The contact G, that is, the (− pole) of the pin-type lithium battery 25a is connected to the contact H, and the contact piece β suspended from the contact H contacts the positive electrode of the pin-type lithium battery 25b when the power is turned on. (FIG. 4).
　ピン形リチウム電池２５ｂはコイルスプリング２６により長手方向上方に付勢され、通常、接点Ｅと接点Ｆとを適宜離間している（図４）。 The pin-type lithium battery 25b is urged upward in the longitudinal direction by the coil spring 26, and normally, the contact E and the contact F are appropriately separated (FIG. 4).
　本実施形態に係るゴルフティー２０は、スイッチ２３を回転させてピン形リチウム電池２５ｂをコイルスプリング２６の付勢に抗って下方へ進め、接点Ｅと接点Ｆとを接触させて発光ダイオード２４を点滅点灯させる（図５）。 In the golf tee 20 according to the present embodiment, the switch 23 is rotated to advance the pin-type lithium battery 25b downward against the bias of the coil spring 26, and the contact E and the contact F are brought into contact with each other to cause the light emitting diode 24 to move. Flashes and lights up (FIG. 5).
　本実施の形態においても、前記の実施形態同様、ゴルフティー２０は地中で点滅点灯していることから、アドレス（ボールを打つための構え）に入ったプレーヤーの集中を妨げることはない。そして、打球後、抜地飛去したゴルフティーは複数の色を組み合わせて点滅点灯を続けていることから、どこに落下したか発見がより一層容易である。 Also in this embodiment, since the golf tee 20 blinks and lights in the ground as in the above-described embodiment, it does not hinder the concentration of the player who enters the address (a posture for hitting the ball). And, since the golf tee that has been removed from the ground after hitting the ball continues to flash by combining a plurality of colors, it is much easier to find where it has fallen.
　本実施形態におけるゴルフティー２０の支持部分２１と、スイッチ２３を除く載置部分２２の材質はポリカーボネートなどの硬質樹脂製とし、スイッチ２３はポリウレタンなど軟質樹脂製が好ましい。なお、本発明の目的達成を妨げない限り他の材質を使用することとしてもよく、発光ダイオードの取付手段やスイッチについても種々の手段が利用可能である。また、本発明の趣旨から、少なくとも支持部分２１は透明又は半透明とする。 The material of the support portion 21 of the golf tee 20 and the mounting portion 22 excluding the switch 23 in this embodiment is preferably made of a hard resin such as polycarbonate, and the switch 23 is preferably made of a soft resin such as polyurethane. It should be noted that other materials may be used as long as the object of the present invention is not hindered, and various means can be used for light emitting diode mounting means and switches. For the purpose of the present invention, at least the support portion 21 is transparent or translucent.
　本発明のゴルフティーは、晴天時や昼間に加え、曇天時や野外照明点灯前の夕方のプレーにおいて有効に利用される。 The golf tee of the present invention is effectively used in the evening play before cloudy weather or outdoor lighting, in addition to fine weather and daytime.
