These are sent to the control device 31 (see Fig. 11 ) and evaluated there in such a way that information about the respective orientation of the golf club 28 is obtained, preferably the respective radial position of the golf club 28 and / or its respective inclination angle ⁇ with respect to the horizontal.
- the golf club 28 and / or the sensors 25 may be designed so that the axial position of the golf club 28 can be detected or determined. This is exemplified by one in the right part of the image FIG. 12 shown further detail of the golf club 28 explained.
- the section of the golf club 28, which is guided in the golf swing in the region of the guide 10, can be provided with markings 35, which can be detected by the correspondingly configured sensors 25.
- the sensors 25 are arranged only along one side of the guide 10.
- the sensors 25 in this case may be formed as active sensors, e.g. Send and receive light or other electromagnetic radiation. In principle, however, passive sensors are also suitable which can only detect electromagnetic radiation, such as e.g. Photodiodes or CCD arrays.
- the markings 35 are designed, for example in the manner of a bar code, such that they have a radial extent that depends on the respective axial position of the golf club shaft.
- the sensors 25 detect markings 35 of different sizes and generate correspondingly different sensor signals from which again in the control unit 31 (see FIG. 11 ) the axial position of the golf club 28 can be derived.
- the markings 35 can be designed to be light-reflecting or absorbing.
- the marker may comprise a phosphorescent substance which, upon irradiation with light, emits light for a certain period of time, as in a watch's dial.
- FIG. 13 shows a front perspective view of a portion of a third example of a device for training the golf swing.
- the base plate 12 of the device are in the range of for the golfer (see. FIG. 11 ) provided location two pressure distribution sensors 41 and 42, with which a pressure distribution in the area of the feet of the golfer can be detected.
- a pressure distribution in the sense of this embodiment means any information which represents a measure of the weight forces occurring in the area of the feet per unit area.
- two pressure distribution sensors 41 and 42 for both feet alternatively only one pressure distribution sensor for one foot can be provided.
- the pressure distribution sensors 41 and 42 are each a two-dimensional arrangement of individual pressure-sensitive sensors whose signals are transmitted via a, in particular wireless, connection 43 to a control unit where they are subjected to processing and, if necessary, evaluation.
- the pressure distribution sensors 41 and 42 can also be accommodated in the soles of the golfer, which allows a particularly accurate detection of the pressure distribution in the area of the respective foot surface - eg heel, toe, outer foot - and allows a very differentiated consideration of the pressure distribution.
- the detected pressure distribution can be compared with previously stored setpoint values, which correspond to a correct weight distribution in the respective phase of the golf swing. In the event of a deviation of the detected pressure distribution from the desired values, this can be visually and / or acoustically displayed, so that the golfer can correct his posture or weight distribution accordingly during the current or next golf swing.
- FIG. 14 shows a front perspective view of a fourth example of a device for training the golf swing.
- the base plate 12 of the device are below the for the feet of the golfer (see. FIG. 11 ) provided areas 51 and 52 two elements 53 and 54, which can give to the respective foot or shoe sole - preferably in the heel area - of standing on the areas 51 and 52 golfer a haptic signal, for example in the form of shock or vibration ,
- a haptic signal for example in the form of shock or vibration
- two elements 53 and 54 for both feet instead of two elements 53 and 54 for both feet, only such an element can be provided for only one foot.
- the elements 53 and 54 are preferably coupled via a connection 55 to the control unit 31 and are controlled by the latter.
- the elements 53 and 54 may, for example, comprise a plunger, which is driven by an electromechanical actuator and can hit the sole of the golfer.
- the elements 53 and 54 may also be designed as vibrating elements, which can act on the sole of the golfer with a vibration signal.
- this information is transmitted to the golfer, posture or weight transfer in a simple, reliable and intuitively easy to understand manner.
- the golfer can thereby concentrate on the execution of the golf swing, without, for example, a corresponding display of the information on a monitor 32 or an optical signal 33 (see. FIG. 11 ).
- the information given to the golfer in the form of a haptic signal can here be derived from the position or weight displacement of the golfer detected by the pressure distribution sensors 41 and 42 and, in particular, be a correction instruction if the detected position or weight shift deviates from a predetermined desired value.
- the transmitted information can also be an indication for observing the respectively required body position, posture or weight shift in a specific swing phase.
- the elements 53 and 54 may be driven so that they knock on the heel area during a certain swing phase.
- the member 53 taps the heel of the right foot to signal the golfer that a weight shift is to be made to the left or right foot.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 show a side view and top view of a fifth example of the device according to the invention.
- the guide 10 is mounted in this example in the lower region via a first joint 5 and in the upper region via a telescopic support 6 with a second joint 7 on the bottom plate 12 .
- the length of the support 6 can be adjusted by moving the segments 6 'and 6 ", preferably hydraulically, in and out, but the individual segments 6' and 6" of the telescopic support 6 can also be shaped by means of locking screws or bolts. and / or non-positively locked relative to each other to adjust a certain length of the support 6. Due to the length of the support 6, the inclination angle of the guide 10 relative to the vertical or horizontal can be adjusted within certain limits.
- a section 15 is pivotally mounted and driven such that it is pivoted out of the original path of the guide 10 when the golf club has reached the phase of the swing and / or finish during the golf swing.
- the golf club is guided during golf swing on a front portion 4 of the guide 10 including the section 15 along the predetermined path.
- a wear protection 2 is provided in the front region 4, by which frictional forces between the golf club and guide 10 or section 15 are reduced and / or prevents abrasion on the guide 10 or on the section 15 and the golf club or at least is reduced.
- the wear protection 2 is preferably carried out interchangeable, so that it can be removed if necessary from the guide 10 and the subsection 15 and replaced by a new or different.
- the wear protection 2 can be designed as a self-adhesive tape, which on the Guide 10 and the section 15 are glued and, if necessary, can be deducted again.
- two ultrasonic sensors 26 which can detect the presence of the golf club in the region of the subsection 15. Analogous to the in FIG. 11
- the electrical signals generated by the ultrasonic sensors 26 can be forwarded to a control unit 31, which in turn causes the output of an optical, acoustic or haptic signal to signal to the golfer that the golf club has reached the required starting position for the beginning of the downturn ,
- a control unit 31 which in turn causes the output of an optical, acoustic or haptic signal to signal to the golfer that the golf club has reached the required starting position for the beginning of the downturn .
- a, in particular acoustic, signal is issued to signal to the golfer that the shaft has reached the required or correct shaft angle in the region of a designated inflection point and the downturn can begin.
- ultrasonic sensors 26 and corresponding optical sensors can be used.
- a cover 3 is arranged, which serves to protect the rear part of the ultrasonic sensors 26 and possibly a required to control their electronics against environmental influences.
- the arcuate guide 10 is preferably tubular and has a cavity through which electrical and / or hydraulic lines for the ultrasonic sensors 26 and an electromotive or hydraulic mechanism 17 (see. FIGS. 1 to 3 ) can be performed to pivot the section 15.
- the guide 10 may have an oval cross-section.
