本発明の実施の形態について、以下、図面を参照して説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

図１、２を参照すると、本発明の実施例１のゴルフクラブヘッドと重りの結合構造にはヘッド本体１、少なくとも一個の重り２、少なくとも一個の位置決め部材３および少なくとも一個の保持部材４が含まれる。ヘッド本体１はアイアン型ヘッドからなると共に、比較的軽い金属または合金材質により製成され、例えばステンレス、合金鋼または低炭素鋼などにより製成される。ヘッド本体１にはフェース板１１、キャビティ１２、ホーゼル１３と少なくとも一個の収容室１４が設けられる。フェース板１１はヘッド本体１の正面に設けられると共に、ゴルフボールを打球するのに用いられる。キャビティ１２はフェース板１１が後方へ弾性変形するクッション空間を提供することができる。ホーゼル１３はフェース板１１の一方に位置され、ゴルフクラブのシャフト（図示せず）と結合するのに用いられることができる。収容室１４はヘッド本体１のキャビティ１２の下方のソール板において凹むように設けられ、収容室１４は円柱形の孔からなる。収容室１４の内部には他にねじ孔１４１と肩部１４２が形成されることにより、重り２、位置決め部材３と保持部材４を収容し結合することができる。   1 and 2, the golf club head / weight combination structure according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a head body 1, at least one weight 2, at least one positioning member 3, and at least one holding member 4. It is. The head body 1 is made of an iron-type head and made of a relatively light metal or alloy material, such as stainless steel, alloy steel, or low carbon steel. The head body 1 is provided with a face plate 11, a cavity 12, a hosel 13 and at least one storage chamber 14. The face plate 11 is provided in front of the head body 1 and used for hitting a golf ball. The cavity 12 can provide a cushion space in which the face plate 11 is elastically deformed rearward. The hosel 13 is positioned on one side of the face plate 11 and can be used to couple with a golf club shaft (not shown). The storage chamber 14 is provided so as to be recessed in the sole plate below the cavity 12 of the head body 1, and the storage chamber 14 is formed of a cylindrical hole. In addition, a screw hole 141 and a shoulder 142 are formed in the interior of the accommodation chamber 14 so that the weight 2, the positioning member 3 and the holding member 4 can be accommodated and coupled.

再び図１、２を参照すると、本発明の実施例１の重り２は比較的重い金属または合金材質により製成され、例えばタングステン−フェロ−ニッケル合金などにより製成される。重り２は円柱体からなり、その外径は収容室１４の内径と略同じになるように形成される。また、重り２には同じ軸心で軸孔２１と収容孔２２が設けられ、収容孔２２の内径は軸孔２１より大きくなるように形成され、収容孔２２は保持部材４を収容するのに用いられることができる。位置決め部材３はヘッド本体１と同じ材質により製成され、位置決め部材３には蓋体３１、桿体３２、第一ねじ部３３、第二ねじ部３４と少なくとも一個の解除部３５が設けられる。第一ねじ部３３の外径は第二ねじ部３４より大きくなるように形成され、さらに第一ねじ部３３と第二ねじ部３４には反対方向に設置された雄ねじが形成される。保持部材４はナットからなり、保持部材４にはねじ孔４１が設けられる。   1 and 2, the weight 2 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is made of a relatively heavy metal or alloy material, such as a tungsten-ferro-nickel alloy. The weight 2 is formed of a cylindrical body, and the outer diameter thereof is formed to be substantially the same as the inner diameter of the storage chamber 14. Further, the weight 2 is provided with a shaft hole 21 and a receiving hole 22 with the same axis, and the inner diameter of the receiving hole 22 is formed to be larger than the shaft hole 21, and the receiving hole 22 is used to receive the holding member 4. Can be used. The positioning member 3 is made of the same material as the head body 1, and the positioning member 3 is provided with a lid 31, a casing 32, a first screw portion 33, a second screw portion 34, and at least one release portion 35. The outer diameter of the first screw portion 33 is formed to be larger than that of the second screw portion 34, and the first screw portion 33 and the second screw portion 34 are formed with male screws installed in opposite directions. The holding member 4 is made of a nut, and the holding member 4 is provided with a screw hole 41.

図２、３を参照すると、初歩的に組立を行う時、先ず重り２を位置決め部材３に嵌設する。この時、重り２は蓋体３１の内側に当接するように形成され、そして桿体３２は重り２の軸孔２１の内部を貫穿するように形成され、さらに第二ねじ部３４は重り２の収容孔２２の外部まで突出するように形成される。それから、保持部材４を位置決め部材３に嵌入させ、保持部材４のねじ孔４１によって第一ねじ部３３に螺合し、保持部材４が略重り２の収容孔２２の内部で収容されるようになるまで螺合し続ける。上述した方式によって同じ規格を有した位置決め部材３と保持部材４は同じ規格で重量の異なった各種の重り２を初歩的に結合することができる。   Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, when assembling is basically performed, the weight 2 is first fitted into the positioning member 3. At this time, the weight 2 is formed so as to contact the inside of the lid 31, and the housing 32 is formed so as to penetrate the inside of the shaft hole 21 of the weight 2, and the second screw portion 34 is formed of the weight 2. It is formed so as to protrude to the outside of the accommodation hole 22. Then, the holding member 4 is fitted into the positioning member 3 and screwed into the first screw portion 33 by the screw hole 41 of the holding member 4 so that the holding member 4 is accommodated inside the accommodating hole 22 of the weight 2. Continue screwing until. The positioning member 3 and the holding member 4 having the same standard according to the above-described method can connect various weights 2 having the same standard and different weights in an elementary manner.

再び図３を参照すると、さらに進んで組立を行う時、先ず位置決め部材３、重り２と保持部材４による合体をヘッド本体１の収容室１４の内部に嵌入させる。それから、適当な工具を利用して解除部３５に挿入し、位置決め部材３を回動させることにより、位置決め部材３の第二ねじ部３４を収容室１４のねじ孔１４１にねじ込ませる。また、重り２と保持部材４の一方は収容室１４の肩部１４２に緊密に当接するように形成され、さらに、重り２の外周面は収容室１４の内周面に緊密に当接するように形成される。   Referring again to FIG. 3, when the assembly is further advanced, first, the combination of the positioning member 3, the weight 2 and the holding member 4 is inserted into the storage chamber 14 of the head body 1. Then, the second screw portion 34 of the positioning member 3 is screwed into the screw hole 141 of the storage chamber 14 by inserting the release member 35 using an appropriate tool and rotating the positioning member 3. Further, one of the weight 2 and the holding member 4 is formed so as to be in close contact with the shoulder 142 of the storage chamber 14, and the outer peripheral surface of the weight 2 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the storage chamber 14. It is formed.

再び図３を参照すると、組立を行った後、位置決め部材３の蓋体３１は収容室１４の開口部を封止するように形成されることにより、隠蔽式と取り外し自在な結合構造が形成されるため、重量の異なった重り２を取り換えることができる。位置決め部材３はヘッド本体１に直接螺設されることにより、ヘッド本体１の外観の美観性に影響を及ぼすことがないため、結合の美観性を増やすと共に、表面の仕上げ加工を需要性を相対的に減らすことができる。また、異なった重り２を取り換えようとする時、先ず解除部３５を利用して位置決め部材３を回動させることにより、位置決め部材３、重り２と保持部材４による合体を取り外す。それから、反対方向で保持部材４を緩めることにより、重り２を取り換えることができる。上述した組み立て、取り外しの方式を利用することにより、重り２が収容室１４の内部に緊密に係止してしまうという問題はなくなると同時に、第一ねじ部３３と第二ねじ部３４による反対方向のねじの設計により、位置決め部材３を回動させる時、保持部材４が第二ねじ部３４から不意に同期して解除されるのを有効に避けることができるため、位置決め部材３、重り２と保持部材４による合体の関係を確保することができる。これにより、重り２の取り換えの自由度および組み立てと取り外しの利便性を増やすことができる。   Referring to FIG. 3 again, after assembling, the cover 31 of the positioning member 3 is formed so as to seal the opening of the storage chamber 14, thereby forming a concealing type and a detachable coupling structure. Therefore, the weights 2 having different weights can be replaced. Since the positioning member 3 is screwed directly to the head main body 1 so as not to affect the aesthetic appearance of the head main body 1, the aesthetic appearance of the coupling is increased and the surface finish is relatively demanding. Can be reduced. When the different weights 2 are to be replaced, the positioning member 3 is first rotated by using the release portion 35 to remove the combination of the positioning member 3, the weight 2 and the holding member 4. Then, the weight 2 can be replaced by loosening the holding member 4 in the opposite direction. By using the assembly and removal method described above, the problem that the weight 2 is tightly locked inside the storage chamber 14 is eliminated, and at the same time, the opposite directions by the first screw portion 33 and the second screw portion 34 are eliminated. When the positioning member 3 is rotated, it is possible to effectively prevent the holding member 4 from being released from the second screw portion 34 in an unexpectedly synchronized manner. The union relationship by the holding member 4 can be ensured. Thereby, the freedom degree of replacement | exchange of the weight 2 and the convenience of an assembly and removal can be increased.

図４、５を参照すると、本発明の実施例２のゴルフクラブヘッドと重りの結合構造が掲示される。実施例１がアイアン型ヘッドに応用されるのと比較すると、実施例２におけるヘッド本体１はウッド型ヘッドからなり、ヘッド本体１にはフェース板１１、ホーゼル１３、少なくとも一個の収容室１４と内部空間１０が設けられる。収容室１４はヘッド本体１の内部空間１０の底部のソール板において凹むように設けられ、収容室１４は円柱形の孔からなる。収容室１４の内部にも同様にねじ孔１４１と肩部１４２が形成されることにより、重り２、位置決め部材３と保持部材４を収容し結合することができる。   4 and 5, a golf club head / weight combination structure according to a second embodiment of the present invention is posted. Compared with the case where the first embodiment is applied to an iron-type head, the head main body 1 in the second embodiment comprises a wood-type head. The head main body 1 includes a face plate 11, a hosel 13, at least one storage chamber 14 and an internal portion. A space 10 is provided. The storage chamber 14 is provided so as to be recessed in the sole plate at the bottom of the internal space 10 of the head body 1, and the storage chamber 14 is formed by a cylindrical hole. Similarly, the screw hole 141 and the shoulder 142 are formed in the interior of the accommodation chamber 14, whereby the weight 2, the positioning member 3, and the holding member 4 can be accommodated and combined.

再び図４、５を参照すると、本発明の実施例２の重り２にも軸孔２１と収容孔２２が設けられる。位置決め部材３にも蓋体３１、桿体３２、第一ねじ部３３、第二ねじ部３４と少なくとも一個の解除部３５が設けられる。保持部材４にもねじ孔４１が設けられる。これにより、同様に重り２の取り換えの自由度、組み立てと取り外しの利便性、さらに結合の美観性を増やすことができる。さらに、本発明の実施例２においては例えば異なる比重の材質により製成された複数個の重り２’、２”が使用されることにより、取り換えの使用の自由度を増やすことができる。その他に、重り２”は外周面において例えば少なくとも一個の弾性体２０”が突出するように設けられ、弾性体２０”は弾性材質により製成され、弾性体２０”は収容室１４の内周面に弾性的に係止されることにより、打球時の振動を吸収することができると共に、打球時において重り２と収容室１４の内周面との間のぶつかりによって異音が生じるのを避けることができる。弾性体２０”も同様に本発明の実施例１のアイアン型ヘッドの重り２に応用することができる。   4 and 5 again, the weight 2 of the second embodiment of the present invention is also provided with a shaft hole 21 and an accommodation hole 22. The positioning member 3 is also provided with a lid 31, a casing 32, a first screw portion 33, a second screw portion 34 and at least one release portion 35. The holding member 4 is also provided with a screw hole 41. Thereby, the freedom degree of replacement | exchange of the weight 2 similarly, the convenience of an assembly and removal, and also the aesthetics of a coupling | bonding can be increased. Furthermore, in the second embodiment of the present invention, for example, by using a plurality of weights 2 ′, 2 ″ made of materials having different specific gravities, the degree of freedom of replacement can be increased. The weight 2 ″ is provided on the outer peripheral surface such that at least one elastic body 20 ″ protrudes, the elastic body 20 ″ is made of an elastic material, and the elastic body 20 ″ is elastic on the inner peripheral surface of the storage chamber 14. By being locked, it is possible to absorb vibrations at the time of hitting the ball and to avoid the generation of noise due to a collision between the weight 2 and the inner peripheral surface of the storage chamber 14 at the time of hitting. Similarly, the elastic body 20 ″ can be applied to the weight 2 of the iron-type head according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

図６、７を参照すると、本発明の実施例３のゴルフクラブヘッドと重りの結合構造が掲示される。実施例２と比較すると、実施例３においては他に弾性パッキング５が含まれ、彈性パッキング５は弾性材質により製成される。組立時において、弾性パッキング５がヘッド本体１の収容室１４の肩部１４２と保持部材４の間に当接されることにより、保持部材４が組立後において打球の振動によって生じた脱落の問題を有効に防止することができるため、重り２、位置決め部材３と保持部材４は収容室１４の内部に確実かつ緊密に結合されることができる。また、弾性パッキング５により打球の振動を吸収することができると共に、打球時に生じた異音を有効に避けることができる。さらに、弾性パッキング５は本発明の実施例のウッド型ヘッドに応用することができるだけではなく、実施例１のアイアン型ヘッドにも応用することができる。   Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, a golf club head / weight combination structure according to a third embodiment of the present invention is posted. Compared with the second embodiment, the third embodiment further includes an elastic packing 5, and the inertia packing 5 is made of an elastic material. At the time of assembling, the elastic packing 5 is brought into contact with the shoulder 142 of the accommodating chamber 14 of the head body 1 and the holding member 4, so that the holding member 4 is not dropped due to the vibration of the hit ball after assembly. Since it can be effectively prevented, the weight 2, the positioning member 3 and the holding member 4 can be reliably and tightly coupled to the inside of the accommodation chamber 14. Further, the elastic packing 5 can absorb the vibration of the hit ball and can effectively avoid the abnormal noise generated at the time of hitting. Further, the elastic packing 5 can be applied not only to the wood type head of the embodiment of the present invention but also to the iron type head of the first embodiment.

上述の如く、従来のゴルフクラブヘッドと重りの結合構造によれば、重りをヘッド本体の収容室に直接嵌設し結合することにより、外観に美観性を欠いているだけではなく、重りの取り換えが難しくなるという問題点があったが、図１に示す本発明のゴルフクラブヘッドと重りの結合構造によれば、位置決め部材３と保持部材４を利用して初歩的に重り２を結合し、それから上記三つの部材による合体をヘッド本体１の収容室１４の内部に螺設することにより、確実に重り２の取り換えの自由度、組み立ての利便性と結合の美観性を相対的に増やすことができる。   As described above, according to the conventional golf club head and weight coupling structure, the weight is not only lacking in appearance but also replaced by replacing the weight by directly fitting and coupling the weight to the housing of the head body. However, according to the golf club head and weight coupling structure of the present invention shown in FIG. 1, the weight 2 is first coupled using the positioning member 3 and the holding member 4, Then, the union of the three members is screwed into the interior of the accommodating chamber 14 of the head body 1 to reliably increase the degree of freedom of replacement of the weight 2, the convenience of assembly, and the aesthetics of the coupling. it can.
