Description

  The present invention relates to a practice machine for putting on an inclined surface in golf.

  The putt training machines currently on the market can only practice in the range of flat or up hook line or up slice line.

  However, what really needs to be practiced is `` lateral slope '' or `` down slope '', which is especially difficult in terms of putting technology, but such practice can only be done on golf practice greens and production greens, In the case of office workers, it is about 1 to 4 times a month.

  However, in order to improve, most of the things that can be practiced every day, so many inventions have been made to spread the inclined pad training machine to the general household.

  In addition, the following patent documents 1-3 can be mentioned as a well-known technique regarding this invention.

Public opening Hei 06-086768 public information JP 11-504823 A JP 2000-254267 A

  When putting on an inclined surface, the ball must be at least 1 meter from the cup, and the ball will not be affected by the inclination. It is necessary to make the entire area within the practicable range.

  However, even if the above-mentioned conditions can be satisfied, all the issues of “cost”, “weight”, “size”, and “safety” must be solved in order to spread to ordinary households. Because it is inevitable that it will be difficult to purchase if the over-the-counter sales price seems to be over 50,000 yen, and if it is not possible to carry even a powerless person such as a woman, for a series of usage ranges from transportation and practice to withdrawal Restrictions can be made. And since the practice space and storage space in a general household are limited, a realistic size is required. Moreover, since it is not allowed to be injured by an accident, it is necessary to use a structure that cannot be broken by weight or a material that cannot be injured. However, none of the conventional inventions has solved all the above four problems.

According to Patent Document 1, in “size”, the practice space and the storage space both deserve a circle having a diameter of 1.8 m, and are too large to be used in a general household.
Since Patent Document 2 has a complicated structure, “cost” is high, and in order to prevent the panel from being damaged by weight, a corresponding material or structure is required. Cannot be solved at the same time.
Although Patent Document 3 is an invention as a shot practice, even when the technique is cited as a putt practice machine, the practice space becomes 1.8 m square in “size”.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve all four problems of “cost”, “weight”, “size”, and “safety” and to spread a full-scale inclined pad training machine to general households. .

  As a premise, the “tilt unit” is a general term for a single tilt plate for which an arbitrary tilt rate has been set and a product in which a plurality of tilt plates are stacked. Then, at least two of the tilt units are connected in the horizontal direction, and the practice state is established by continuing the slope.

  As means for making the slopes 14 in the two tilting units continuous, connecting the oblique sides 6 to each other in the horizontal direction, and connecting the upper side 7 and the lower side 8 or the upper sides 7 to each other or the lower sides 8 to each other can be mentioned. . Further, when a step is generated between the inclined surfaces 14 of the two inclined units, the step is eliminated by laying a flat step plate under the inclined unit, and the two inclined surfaces 14 can be made continuous.

  As a basic principle of the present invention, a ratio sequence of a plurality of types of inclined plates and a ratio of thicknesses of the plurality of types of step plates are both a geometric sequence having a common ratio of 3, that is, 1 to 3 to 9 pairs. The reason why it is represented by 27: 81: 243 is that when using an arbitrary number of both members, the setting of the inclination does not overlap and the most various practice states can be set. The calculation formula is shown as an example. 1 = 1, 2 = 3-1, 3 = 3, 4 = 3 + 1, 5 = 9-3-1, 6 = 9-3, 7 = 9-3 + 1, 8 = 9-1, 9 = 9, 10 = 9 + 1, 11 = 9 + 3-1, 12 = 9 + 3, 13 = 9 + 3 + 1, 14 = 27-9-3-1, 15 = 27-9-3, 16 = 27-9-3 + 1, hereinafter omitted.

  Regarding the second embodiment, the reason why the ratio of the inclination rate in the three types of inclined plates and the ratio of the thickness in the three types of step plates are set to 1: 3: 5 is cited as the practice machine for putting. This is because there are many merits and the best form is obtained.

  As described above, the present invention has a non-movable structure in which an inclined plate and a step plate are combined, and the material can be made of a light and inexpensive material such as EVA resin. “Cost” can be several thousand yen, and “weight” is about 4-5 kg. In “size”, the practice space is one tatami mat and the storage space is half a tatami mat. The material is only artificial turf and EVA resin, so it is not hollow, so it will not break.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  1 to 4 relate to the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 3 to 10 relate to the second embodiment.

  As an example, FIG. 1 shows an inclination setting method using three types of an inclination plate (1) 1 with an inclination rate of 1%, an inclination plate (3) 3 with an inclination rate of 3%, and an inclination plate (9) 9 with an inclination rate of 9%. To state.

1 and 2, when the inclined plate (1) 1 is used alone, the minimum inclination rate is obtained, and this is the pattern (1) in the inclined unit. Next, when the inclined plate (1) 1 and the inclined plate (3) 3 are stacked so that the inclination directions are reversed, the inclination of the inclined plate (3) 3 is canceled by the inclination of the inclined plate (1) 1, and substantially. Therefore, the pattern (2) 2 is formed (3-1 = 2). Next, if the inclined plate (3) 3 is used alone, an inclined unit of the pattern (3) is obtained. Subsequently, when the inclined plate (1) 1 and the inclined plate (3) 3 are stacked in the same inclination direction, an inclined unit with an inclination rate of 4% is formed, and a pattern (4) 4 is formed (1 + 3 = 4). When the inclined plate (1) 1 and the inclined plate (3) 3 are stacked on the inclined plate (9) 9 so that the inclination directions are reversed, an inclined unit with an inclination rate of 5% is formed (pattern (5) 5) ( 9-3-1 = 5).
As described above, when the three kinds of inclined plates are used by adjusting the integer representing the ratio of the inclination ratios, the total number of patterns is 13 (9 + 3 + 1 = 13).

  In the first embodiment, it is preferable to use three types of the inclined plate (1) 1, the inclined plate (3) 3 and the inclined plate (9) 9 as the inclined surface putting practice machine. The reason is that only two types of inclination plate (1) 1 and inclination plate (3) 3 can be used for setting the inclination, and it is not suitable. Inclination plate (1) 1, inclination plate (3) 3 and inclination If 4 types of plate (9) 9 and inclined plate (27) are used, 40 patterns can be created (27 + 9 + 3 + 1 = 40), but it is not necessary to actually make fine adjustments as practice content, and calculation of settings becomes complicated. This is because it is inappropriate.

  The tilt unit configured as described above is completed by the method described below.

  3 and 4, the oblique side 6 of the inclined unit having the same pattern is connected to each other, thereby completing the horizontal mold 16.

  Next, the vertical type 17 is set by connecting the upper side 7 and the lower side 8 of the inclined unit of the same pattern. In that case, a step plate is used as means for continuing the two slopes 14. The thickness and usage of the step plate are as follows.

  The thickness of the step plate (1) 11 = the length of the upper side 10 of the inclined plate (1) 1−the length of the lower side 12. The thickness of the step plate (3) 13 = the length of the upper hanging side 10 of the inclined plate (3) 3−the length of the lower hanging side 12. The thickness of the step plate (9) 19 = the length of the upper side 10 of the inclined plate (9) 9−the length of the lower side 12.

  As a specific use example of the step plate, when connecting the upper side 7 and the lower side 8 of the two inclined plates (1) 1, the step plate (1) is located under the upper (high side) inclined plate (1) 1. By laying 11, the two slopes 14 are continuous, which is a completed example of the pattern 17 as the vertical mold 17.

  Similarly, in the case where the pattern (2) 2 is the vertical type 17, if the step plate (3) 13 is laid on the upper position and the step plate (1) 11 is laid on the lower position (lower side), 3-1 = 2. Two slopes 14 can be made continuous. In order to make the vertical pattern 17 of the pattern (N), the step plate (A) is laid at the upper position and the step plate (B) is laid at the lower position, and A−B = N.

  The above is the explanation of the basic setting in the first embodiment. This technique can be used not only as a practicing machine for putting but also as a practicing machine for shots on slopes, and in various other fields. .

  As described above, it is preferable that the inclined plate and the step plate use the three types (1), (3), and (9). However, the inclined plate (9) 9 has the inclined plate (5) as shown in FIG. By using the second embodiment of type (1), (3), (5) instead of 25, the number of patterns is 9 (5 + 3 + 1 = 9), but there are many other merits and the best It becomes a form. The reason is as follows.

  The (1), (3), and (5) types can always lay artificial grass only on the inclined plate (5) 25, but the (1), (3), and (9) types are artificial on all three types of inclined plates. Grass must be laid, and it is difficult to align the slope 14 when loading. Moreover, when taking the form which made the artificial grass independent as a countermeasure, the number of members increases, and it takes time and effort to set up to the practice state.

  The calculation of the inclination setting and the installation of the step plate in the types (1), (3), and (5) are simpler than the types (1), (3), and (9).

  The number of patterns “13” in types (1), (3), and (9) has an ominous meaning in Christian spheres such as Western countries. The number of patterns in types (1), (3), and (5) The number “9” is related to golf and is convenient.

  FIG. 5 shows the members of the second embodiment (1), (3), (5) type, and the dimensions are calculated as follows.

The maximum inclination of this system by the normal setting is set when the pattern (9) 49 in FIG. 6 is set, but the inclination rate is such that it does not roll naturally even if a ball is placed during practice, and may vary depending on the type of artificial turf. The difference is 6-8%.
Therefore, in the embodiment, the dimension of the member is shown below with a maximum inclination of 7% and a maximum practice distance of 1.8 m.

The inclined plate (1) 21 has a bottom 15 of 900 mm, an upper hanging side 10 of 14 mm, and a lower hanging side 12 of 7 mm.
The inclined plate (3) 23 has a bottom 15 of 900 mm, an upper hanging side 10 of 28 mm, and a lower hanging side 12 of 7 mm.
The inclined plate (5) 25 has a bottom 15 of 900 mm, an upper hanging side 10 of 77 mm, and a lower hanging side 12 of 42 mm.
The step plate (1) 31 is 900 mm square and 7 mm thick.
The step plate (3) 33 is 900 mm square and 21 mm thick.
The step plate (5) 35 is 900 mm square and 35 mm thick.
In this system, there are a total of 9 points for each of the three types of inclined plates and for each of the three types of step plates.

  The inclined plate (5) 25 has an artificial turf always laid on the slope 14 and cups are cut at the four corners. Therefore, the inclined plate (5) 25 has the same thickness as the ball. In the cup, if it seems that the ball trajectory is hindered during practice, the same type of member is packed. Moreover, it can be used without cutting the cup, and in that case, it is possible to practice by placing an instrument or the like that can assume a cup on the slope 14.

FIG. 6 shows nine patterns in a normal inclination setting.
Pattern (1) 41 slope rate 0.78% 5-3-1 = 1
Pattern (2) 42 slope rate 1.56% 5-3 = 2
Pattern (3) 43 slope rate 2.33% 5-3 + 1 = 3
Pattern (4) 44 slope 3.11% 5-1 = 4
Pattern (5) 45 slope rate 3.89% 5 = 5
Pattern (6) 46 slope rate 4.67% 5 + 1 = 6
Pattern (7) 47 slope rate 5.44% 5 + 3-1 = 7
Pattern (8) 48 slope rate 6.22% 5 + 3 = 8
Pattern (9) 49 slope rate 7.00% 5 + 3 + 1 = 9

  Calculation and usage of the step plate in the second embodiment are the same as those in the first embodiment.

  FIG. 7 shows the vertical type 18 of the pattern (2) 42 and the vertical type 20 of the pattern (6) 46 as viewed from the side.

  FIG. 8 shows an embodiment in which the vertical mold 17 is mounted on the horizontal mold 16 or the horizontal mold 16 is stacked on the vertical mold 17, which are referred to as composite molds 22 and 24.

  FIG. 9 is an embodiment in which the inclination rate of the inclined surface to be connected is different in the vertical type 17 and is called irregular types 26 and 27.

  FIG. 10 shows an embodiment in which irregular types 26 and 27 are stacked on the horizontal die 16 and are called composite irregular types 28 and 29.

  Variations of practice settings in this system are 9 for the horizontal type, 9 for the vertical type, 32 for the composite type, 200 to 250 types for the irregular type and complex type, and 250 to 300 in various situations when combined. Practice is possible.

  In addition, the artificial turf laid on the inclined plate (5) 25 can be one having turf eyes, and if it is made detachable, practice on inclination and turf eyes is possible.

  Further, the inclined plate (5) 25 can be structured so as to cover natural grass instead of laying artificial grass, and the golf course green can be completely reproduced indoors.
