With reference to Figs. 1 to 3, 1 is a club which is m~de o~ a hard ma~erial, for instance, wood, metal or plastic and, in the case o~ a plastic, it i~
recommended to reinforce khe plastic with tough aramid fibers, for in~tance, KEVLAR (brandname), by interlacing ~uch fibers in plastic layers with orientation to an longitudinal axis of the club 1. Size of a club 1 is preferably about 60 cm in length and about 3 cm in diameter. Further, it is preferable for convenience to carrying as well as adjusting a length in use that a full length of a club is divided to a plurality of short members, which will be connected, for instance, by screw fittings instantly and in place.
A handle 2 is transversely branched at a place toward an end of the club 1, wherein a mounting base or saddle base 3 is formed to offer a flat face at the place as mentioned, on which laid or stacked first is a lower grip member 4 which is shaped to be a rvund brick, wherein a contact plane of the lower grip 4 to the base 3 is ~ormed to make a slide contact plane 5, of which function will appear later. Then, a central grip member 6 is laid or stacked on the grip member 4 to form a similar slide contact plane 11 inbetween and therea~ter an upper grip memker 8a is laid on the central one 6 likewise to form a slide contact plane 12 inbetween.
Thereto another upper grip or aap 8b is ~itted over on top, but between members ~a and ~b no slide plane is provided. These members after assembly as shown in the drawings will be applied to a handgrip as a handle, size of which is therefore pre~erably about 11 cm long and diameter of the cap member 8b is about 3.5 cm, wherein assembled grip members as a whole are preferably shaped to take a form, like a bowling pin, easy to handgxip as shown in the drawings, in other words, round side faces of the lower grip 4 and upper grip ~a are s~ueezed to recurve and a similar side of the central grip is made .~

like a bar~el ~lan~, wher~in an ou~ide ~hape o~ the handle may be varied from round in section, for in~kance, to be elliptic in section for further ease to handgrip as shown in Fig. 2.
Making reference to internal structures, a shaft 13a, 13b (two segments are connected in alignment, but often represented by 13) is provided longitudinally of the handle 2 and is at its ~ooting end secured on a screw 14 which is mounted transversely of khe club axis, as Fig. 3 shows, the footing end may be constructed integrally with the base 3 and is extended vertically to reach top end of the grip 8a with some interconnection midway as shown in Fig 3, wherein the shaft 13 is rotatably suppoxted with ball bearings 16, 16, 16, 16, mounted at two vertical ends of two grip members, lower and upper, while the shaft 13 is fastened with the central grip 6, (see Fig. 2. It shows the shaft 13a in square section at X - X line in Fig. 1). The structure as noted is annotated here to explain functions in the invention. That is, "rotatably supportedl' means that, when a rotatably supported grip is firmly held externally, the grip member held externa]ly remains stationary while internally the shaft 13 is let move or turn, and as wil:L be apparent later, in use, two grips o~
the lower and upper are recommerlded to be held by the hand palm while the center grip is lek ~ree to turn with the club. When the turning club is intended to stop, a touch onto the central grip i5 used to effect braking action. Therefore, s~veral lateral grooves 7 are provided on the central grip to enhance frictlon against the hand palm.
The cap 3b is mounted on the upper grip 8a with a screw fastener 9 and, when disassembling is intended, undoing the fastener 9 leads to easy disassembly.

Note: in the following descxiptions to explain new embodiments, explanations will concentrate to new devices and functions which have not yet been described, with abbreviation ~or repeated description.
With reference to Fig. 4, the embodiment is simplified by removing a rotatably supported lower grip member from the structures as shown in Fig 1.
Therefore, a shaft 13 is secured on a level comparable to the top end of the central grip 6 in Fig. 1 and only an upper grip 8a, 8b is supported rotatably. Therefore, firm gripping on the upper grip is recommended to rotate and additional gripping over the other handle portion is needed to brake rotation of the club.
With reference to Figs. 5 - 7, first, ext~rnally a ring strap band 21 is fitted to make sure of a gripping by hand and is tied with a mounting end 20. Size of the band is preferable in about 20 - 25 cm in fold form. A
mounting position may be changed anywhere around the handle. And crossed grooves ~or anti-slip purpose are provided on a handgrip portion 45 of the club 1.
Internally, the cluh is made hollow to provide an interior space and openings 18, 25 of two ends of the club 1 are closed by plugs 19, 26. Fiy. 7 shows a sha~t assembly in burst ~orm wherein 14 is a king pin screw 14 which will be set transversely across the club 1 to flt in a footing end of khe shaPt 13a, and the top end of the sha~t 13a is designed to screw-connect to another segment o~ the sha~t 13b which is equipped with ball bearings (not shown) and 15 is a screw to fasten or to clamp the assembly as a whole on top. 20 is a mounting end for a strap.

With re~erence to Figs. 9 to 11, the club 1 is internally made to be a longitudinal hollow space, which is divided to two spaces 17, 24 in the case of Fig. 9 and two end openings 18, 25 are closed by plugs 19, 26, wherein a weight 27 composed of metal particles or beads is provided to accelerate centrifugal force. In the case of an embodiment of Fig. ll, the club is so designed as to be connected of two segments la, lb, and the seyment lb contains a weight 27 and is connected by screw-fitting 28, 29 so that an independent compartm~nt 24 is formed in the segment la which may be used to store small properties o~ a user.
With reference to Fig. 12, this embodiment features in fiber reinforcement 30 with use of a tough kind of fiber as noted before.
With rePerence to Fig. 13, this em~odiment features in provision of a gas ejecting device contained in the club body 1, wherein 32 is a gas bomb and 34 is a nob switch or trigger to burst the bomb and 33 is a gas ejecting nozzle, then 35 is a nozzl~ hole, through which an exploded gas, for instance, tear gas or smoky gas will be ejected outside.
With reference to Fig. 14, this embodiment features in provision of a lightening or illuminating device in the club interior, in place of the gas ejector in the fsregoing. Referring to the lightening device, therein 36 is a battery/ 37 is a lamp, 38 is a switch and 39 is a lens window as is easily understood.

space 17 and a nozzle 33 is directed to the left therein.
In use, if the lightening device i5 unnecessary, the lamp 37 is recommended to be removed and a cap 26 as shown in Fig. 15 is applied in place.
With reference to Figs. 17 and 18 featuring in internal devices of the club 1, in a space adjacent to an end opposite to a grip portion 31 or 45, a pointing device is mounted so as to facilitate a jab action wherein a plug 26 is provided with a through hole 40 and therethrough a pointer member 41 is fitted and an assembly of the pointer 41 and the plug 26 is set so as to connect to a pack 42 mounted inwardly wherein a tip of the pointer 41 is adjusted to be slightLy out of the rod end, and 43 is a shock absorber. In the case of Fig. 18, a plug 26 is designed to serve as a pointer 44, which is exchangeable to a normal plug as shown in the left hand end.
With reference to Fig. 19, on the club 1, crosshatched net irreqularities are provided to avoid a 25 81ip with a yrip portion 31 and two ends, whlah are commonly numbered 45.
With reference to Fig. 20, at one or two ends of the club 1, a cap 46, made of a spongy material, for instance, is applied to avoid a slip.

Further, it is preferable for convenience to carrying as well as adjusting a length in use that a full length of a club is divided to a plurality of short members, which will be connected, for instance, by screw fittings instantly and in place.
A handle 2 is transversely branched at a place toward an end of the club 1, wherein a mounting base or saddle base 3 is formed to offer a flat face at the place as mentioned, on which laid or stacked first is a lower grip member 4 which is shaped to be a rvund brick, wherein a contact plane of the lower grip 4 to the base 3 is ~ormed to make a slide contact plane 5, of which function will appear later.
