Description

  The present invention relates to golf gloves. In particular, the present invention relates to a golf glove that can accommodate a golf marker (hereinafter simply referred to as “marker”).

In a golf competition, it is customary for each player to hold a marker in a pocket or the like in order to mark the ball position on the green. Since markers are often lost during competitions, in order to prevent this, it has been devised to temporarily fix them on clothes. For example, the following patent documents 1 to 4 are known as devices for attaching a marker to a glove.
Japanese Utility Model Sho 50-76953 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 50-32072 Actual Kosho 55-281 Shokai 52-13167

  In Patent Document 1, the upper surface of the glove back part and the lower surface of the glove back part covering piece can be bonded with a hook-and-loop fastener, and a marker with a pin is stored on one side of the glove back part covering side. The pin is inserted into a hole on one side of the cover and used for positioning.

  In Patent Document 2, a crack is provided on the upper surface of the glove back part, and a pocket for storing a marker is formed using this as an entrance.

  In Patent Document 3, an inner portion of the surface adhesive sheet on the upper surface side of the glove back portion is used as a marker storage portion, and a marker entrance made of a narrow cut line is formed in a cover portion covering the marker storage portion.

  In Patent Document 4, a magnet is provided at a desired portion of a glove, and a marker is held by this magnet.

  In Patent Document 1, it is not preferable for safety to set a pin (protrusion) on the marker. Moreover, there is a possibility that the marker will fall because the supporting object is lost at the moment when the covering piece is turned over.

  In Patent Document 2, there is a possibility that the marker may jump out of the crack when the golf club is shaken strongly.

  In patent document 3, the structure of a storage part becomes a little complicated, and the production cost of gloves increases.

  In Patent Document 4, since the magnet protrudes from the glove, if the marker is attached thereto, the marker may move when the golf club is shaken, or may be detached depending on the case.

  The present invention is intended to solve all these problems. That is, it is an object to provide a golf glove that is simple in structure and easy to remove a marker, so that the marker does not move or come off as the golf club is vibrated.

  The present invention is a golf glove in which a marker attachment portion is formed on an upper cover piece, wherein the marker generates or is sensitive to magnetic force, and the marker attachment portion is divided into at least two. It has a marker insertion part sandwiched between raised parts, and this marker insertion part is provided with a magnetic force generation or magnetic force sensitive part.

  According to the present invention, setting of the marker for the glove is simple because the marker is simply attached to the marker insertion portion by magnetic force. In addition, since the marker insertion portion is positioned by the raised portion, it is possible to reliably prevent the marker from moving or dropping. When using the marker, it is only necessary to apply a finger to the left and right space where the raised portion does not exist and to peel off the marker against the magnetic force.

  It is natural to attach the marker to the left glove for right-handed people and the right glove for left-handed people. However, you may attach to both in order to unify a right-and-left design.

  The raised portion may be provided in the vertical direction of the marker insertion portion, or may be provided in the horizontal direction. When provided in the up / down direction, the left / right direction becomes a space, and when provided in the left / right direction, the up / down direction becomes a space. Generally, it seems that it is easier to place a finger on the marker when the space is in the left-right direction.

  The shape of the raised portion may be an arc shape divided into two (namely, () shape), or may be a bracket shape (namely, [] shape) divided into two. At least two ridges are necessary, but three or more ridges may be provided. For example, it can also be made into four linear pieces (namely, ◇ shape where each line does not contact) which are opposed to each other two by two. In short, any shape may be used as long as the round marker is positioned.

  It is preferable that the height of the raised portion is substantially equal to the height of the marker. By doing so, it is possible to reliably prevent the marker from popping out when the golf club is vibrated. Moreover, even if it contacts with something, since it does not contact with the side part of a marker directly, a marker will not be removed or shifted.

  The raised portion may be integrally formed at the marker attachment location by injection molding of synthetic resin or the like, or may be separately manufactured and attached to the marker attachment location with an adhesive or the like later.

  When a magnet is set on the marker itself, the marker insertion portion may be a metal plate sensitive to magnetic force, and when the marker itself is a magnetic force sensitivity portion, a magnet can be set on the marker insertion portion. The magnetic force sensitive part may itself be a magnet.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a front view of a golf glove 1 according to a first embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a front view of a state in which an upper covering piece 2 is turned. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along a line 3-3 in FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along a line 4-4 in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the glove back portion 3 is provided with an opening / closing portion 4, and hook and loop fasteners 5 and 6 are attached to the upper surface of the upper portion and the lower surface of the upper portion covering piece 2, respectively. The opening and closing part 4 can be closed by attaching the surface fasteners 5 and 6, and the opening and closing part can be opened by talking to the surface fasteners.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the marker 7 is attached to a marker attachment location located at the center of the upper covering piece 2. As described above, the upper cover piece 2 has the surface fastener 6 attached to the lower surface, but the upper surface 9 is a flat plate as a whole except for the marker attachment portion.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the marker attachment portion includes a central embedded metal plate 10 that forms the marker insertion portion 8, and raised portions 11 and 12 that extend in an arc shape above and below the metal plate 10.

  The embedded metal plate 10 is a part for fixing the marker 7. The embedded metal plate 10 only needs to be sensitive to magnetic force, and can be formed by embedding an iron disk, for example.

  The raised portions 11 and 12 are provided above and below the buried metal plate 10 and are formed of two arcs as in parentheses (()) positioned in the vertical direction. Each arc has a length of about 1/5 to 1/3 of an imaginary circle. Since there are no raised portions on the left and right sides of the metal plate and the spaces 13 and 14 are formed, there is no obstacle.

  The marker 7 is housed in a close contact between the upper and lower raised portions 11 and 12 (see the imaginary line in FIG. 3). In the stowed state, the height of the raised portion and the height of the marker are substantially equal or form a gentle mountain shape. In this embodiment, the height of the raised portion is 3 mm. A permanent magnet 7a is embedded in advance on the back surface of the marker.

  To use the glove of the present invention, the marker 7 is set on the glove 1 by fitting the marker 7 having the permanent magnet 7 a between the raised portions 11 and 12. Since the marker is positioned by the arcuate ridges 11 and 12 at the top and bottom, the marker does not move at all when the golf club is shaken slightly. Further, since the height of the raised portion is substantially equal to the height of the marker, the marker will not be removed or displaced even if it comes into contact with something. When using the marker 7, it is only necessary to apply a finger to the left and right spaces 13, 14 where there are no raised portions and peel off the marker against the magnetic force.

  Although not shown, in the second embodiment, a permanent magnet is embedded instead of the embedded metal plate 10 in the first embodiment. On the marker 7 side, a permanent magnet may be embedded, or a simple metal plate may be used.

  In the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the two raised portions are four small pieces 11A, 11A ′, 12A, and 12A ′ that face each other. Such a protruding portion can sufficiently suppress the movement of the marker.

  Although not shown, in the fourth embodiment, the arcuate bulge portion in the first embodiment is assumed to be a bracket ([]) positioned in the vertical direction. Such a protruding portion can sufficiently suppress the movement of the marker.

1 is a front view of a golf glove according to a first embodiment. It is a front view of the glove for golf of the state which turned the upper part covering piece. FIG. 3 is a 3-3 cross-sectional view of FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 4-4 in FIG. 1. It is a front view of the golf glove which concerns on 3rd Example of this invention.
