Abstract

Apparatus to practice golf strokes or swings etc. has a golf ball (1) connected to a line (2) and produces a permanent change of shape through the stroke. A braking carriage (3) is mounted on a profile and the brake pressure may be released by a lever movement. A sliding rail (4) which has a turntable and swivel link indicates the power or length of the stroke made on a horizontal and vertical scale. The guide line (2) runs over rollers or through eyelets thus producing the indication.

Description

Golf shots

Device for practicing The invention relates to an apparatus for practicing golf strokes, swings or similar strokes on balls and the like.

To practice a golf swing for distance and accuracy and To improve, it is imperative to improve the flight of the golf ball after the stroke to observe. This can be done in practice dadurdi that one is on the golf course goes and hits practice balls, which can be a nuisance collecting the balls, and you also have to be careful not to disturb other players on the field. However a considerable area is usually required for practice areas of this type, and they are therefore often located in an area that is difficult for the user to access is to achieve.

Such devices are known, but work according to a di ffici len micrometer setting principle, which is unreasonable for laypeople, according to regulations to adjust. The principle here is: The strike an articulated lever, which swings up and brings about a display, but only approximately can display the stroke for the player.

With this type of display, or the principle, there is no possibility given to recreate the golf ball flight.

The invention is based on the task of a tanning for practicing To create golf shots (drives) in the smallest of spaces, with an exact display of the theoretically struck ball without running after the ball to have to or lose it.

This object is achieved by the fact that the with a S-only connected ball caused a permanent change in shape by the stroke.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is explained in more detail below.

According to Fig. 1, a ball (1) is attached to a cord (2), which via a brake slide (3) with a swiveling slide rail (4) on a base plate (5) is mounted.

They show: Fig. 1: the application of the device Fig. 2: the device Fig. 3: Slide rail and slide Fig. 4: Base plate with graduation Fig. 5: Slide with details 3by connecting with the cord (2) and the golf ball (1) can be used to change direction and measure the distance manage when knocking off, if this is done using rollers or loops (1 a) and brake slide (3) is carried out.

Cord length is a maximum of 3 meters, which means that a sufficient trajectory is determined results (Fig. 3).

The golf ball (1) is hit from behind behind the device (Fig. 1) and by the force and direction of the hit ball on the brake slide (3) can be calibrated (also adjustable) distance and through the movable Slide (4), the theoretically struck direction (also with scale) on the base plate read off (Fig. 4) The brake slide (3) according to Fig. 5 runs on a slide rail (4), the carriage being designed so that it faces in the direction to be struck by brake body (7), (rubber or similar) above and below with adjustable spring pressure Resistance is encountered by the knurled screw (8). This carriage is like this designed that the brake body are lifted when Zurfickschieben, so none Application of force to the starting point (A) is required. This can therefore also be done easily with the golf clubs on the sliding lever (9). The brake slide is like this executed that this lifts off the profile at the end of the slide rail (4), so the same force value is always guaranteed (e.g. by changing the rubber pressure).

This advantageous lift-off protection (10) ensures even after several months Use constant setting and function of the device.

As a result, a golfer has the opportunity to improve his performance at any time to test without having to go to a golf course.

An area of 6 x 6 deters is sufficient for this training. So it can can be practiced in every garden, giving about 200 training strokes per hour can be, so an enormous increase in performance is possible.

The slide rail (4) is mounted in the pivot point with plastic washers, the guidance of the display tip in a slot (11) also with plastic disks the maintenance-free display of the chosen direction on the base plate (5) is guaranteed.

The base plate (5) is calibrated by graduated lines, printed and such designed that it is possible through plug pins and rubber pads (12) in the corners is to use the device in the lawn, on concrete or on other ground.
