Description

  Related to display and display equipment for sports equipment such as golf equipment.

Background technology

  Golf clubs are considered to be the best clubs that can be hit as accurately as possible in the direction and distance desired by the user, but such technical improvements and developments have been continuously performed by each club manufacturer. It is coming. Speaking of wood clubs, the club head is light and the flight distance can be increased, and the light and tough shaft that matches it is developed.

  However, no matter what good club is developed, it is quite difficult to develop something that is universal. The user has no choice but to find and select the one that suits them. In this sense, sales of golf clubs are not only places where products are displayed and displayed, but also places where the user picks them up and shakes them to try them out.

  In this case, the display support device for displaying the golf clubs needs to be easy to find where the user wants the golf club, and can be easily removed and suspended so that the user can easily return the golf club.

On the other hand, display equipment devices such as display support devices for sale of goods are hardly improved or improved. There are several reasons for this:
(1) It is understood that products are sold, and that the quality of the product affects the sales of the product. Club makers are devoted to improvement and improvement and spend money, but the display supplies are used to sell the product. I don't know how it contributes.
▲ 2 ▼ Manufacturers who make products sometimes make display goods for sales promotion, but the display goods for sales promotion of one manufacturer inevitably decrease in production, become expensive, and tend to be short-lived. Become.
▲ 3 ▼ Whether it is a supermarket or department store, it is difficult to develop individual display products. ▲ 4 ▼ Sales because the manufacturers that produce the products and the distributors that sell the products are well known. The information about what kind of display goods to use was not communicated to the manufacturers who made the display goods, and research and development were delayed.

  Due to the above factors, it was difficult to make display items suitable for the sale of products. The main topic is the development of the support device for the exhibition that was the subject of investigation while investigating the actual situation of product sales regarding the support device for the display of golf clubs among the display and display items of sports equipment. Aimed. Considering the conventional technology as the background technology, there are the following points.

  As a support device for displaying golf clubs, the present applicant is “Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-42925”, which combines a base member formed of metal or plastic with a cover member made of an elastic member such as synthetic rubber or silicone resin. Proposed support device. Here, the golf club to be exhibited is supported by inserting the grip portion into the hole-like member and supporting the shaft portion. FIG. 8 shows an example of a display support device in which the head of another club is placed and the shaft is supported. As an embodiment here, a support device for supporting an iron is shown.

  Also in the case of wood, a supporting device as shown in FIG. 9 that supports and supports two points of the shaft portion is also known. These two-point support methods need to support two points with a certain distance and interval, regardless of where they are supported. In that case, as in “Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-42925”, support is required. When the member to be used is a separate member, it is necessary to adjust and fix each member, and thus a member is also required.

As an apparatus for displaying golf clubs, iron clubs and the like have conventionally used a two-point display method as shown in FIGS. FIG. 8 shows a method in which a plate provided with a plurality of recesses is installed at an opposing position, a shaft part is placed in the recesses, and the shaft part is supported at two points. FIG. 8 shows a method in which the end of the grip portion is inserted into the hole and the shaft portion is supported by a support plate having a plurality of recesses.

  The method of supporting and fixing a golf club for wood at two points, the shaft and the grip part, is costly because the supporting device is large and the display direction of the club head part is not fixed. After that, there was a problem that the exhibition would fall apart.

  As for the method of making and fixing the mold, considering that three woods are displayed side by side as a support device for an exhibition, the mold itself becomes very large as shown in FIG. 8, and the head part is held there. When trying to reduce the cost of the parts to be reduced as much as possible, the shaft was unavoidably fixed underneath and the club shafts of the three clubs would become uneven.

  In the case of an iron club with two-point support, if the display method is two-point support as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the support is unstable, and the club head cannot be displayed stably. Even if the store clerk displayed the manufacturer name and brand name stamped on the head so that they could be seen, the club was removed from the display device so that the customer could see the weight and balance and test swing. Later, it was not limited to being returned to the original form, but the store clerk needed to re-display it neatly.

  In view of such a point, in the previous application “Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-136069” filed by the present applicant, in order to solve the above problem, a member for hooking the club head and a member for connecting these hook members are separated. It was. If the member to be hooked is thick and the club head is placed as a convex part, it will be structured as a concave part so that it can be eaten firmly and stably, and elastic materials such as rubber and silicone resin as a material to make it possible It was used. In addition, the contact member used metal or reinforced plastic as a material. Then, after the customer made a swing for the hand, if it was returned, it was made a display support device that would be displayed exactly as it was.

  As a wood club, only one part is in contact with both the wood face surface and the wood surface (rear surface) that sandwich the shaft, and the shaft part is elastically engulfed along the shaft for a long time. I found a way to fix it. Thus, the wood club is supported without a large support device.

For golf iron clubs,
(1) The head part is on the upper side, and it is displayed with the same height or lowered at almost regular intervals.
▲ 2 ▼ For that purpose, the head is suspended and supported by the line and the surface, and the shaft is supported by the line connecting the two points in the length direction.
(3) The brand mark or company name stamped on the head can be fixedly displayed in a direction that is easy for the user to see.
(4) Moreover, they are arranged at regular intervals and the shafts are substantially parallel to each other.

  An object of the present invention is to make the golf club display support device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-136069 easier to use and improve from the user's standpoint. The display support device is as follows: (1) The golf club being displayed is displayed in an easy-to-see manner so that it can be seen at a glance which manufacturer's brand name and name of the club are displayed. (2) Where The basic point is to display efficiently in the small space required by golf shops, golf courses and department stores. Therefore, it is an object of the present application to improve the ease of use in these two directions.

  Therefore, in order to solve the above-described problems, the present application is configured such that (1) the wood head of the suspended golf club is visible from the front of the display support device, and (2) is suspended from the display support device. The ends of the shafts of the plurality of golf clubs pointed to substantially one point, and the base portion of the display support device was made small so that it could be efficiently displayed in a small display space.

  Similarly, when the iron club is suspended from the display support device, the tip of the shaft points to approximately one point so that the display support device can efficiently display in a small space.

  More specifically, in a display support device having a connecting member that connects a hook portion and a plurality of the hook portions with the head portion of the golf club facing upward, the connecting member is curved in a circle. It was formed into an arc shape, constituted as a display support device, and when a hook member was attached, it was positioned from a high position to a low position in a curve for a while toward the front. At the same time, the shaft of the golf club suspended on a plurality of the hook members points to substantially one point.

  The golf club display support apparatus according to the present invention is an improvement in the unprecedented goodness of the display support apparatus proposed by the present applicant in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-136069. That is, by making the hook member and the connecting member separately, the display support device does not take up an exhibition space, and the connection member is formed in a curved shape so that the height is low in the front direction of the display support device. The position of the golf club is lowered so that the golf club head suspended on a plurality of hook members can easily be seen by the customer, and the customer can easily select.

  In addition, since the tip of the shafts of a plurality of golf clubs suspended on a hook member attached to a connecting member configured in a curved shape points to one point, and the base part is made in accordance with that, a small space is made An effective exhibition is possible.

  In the present invention, a customer standing in the front direction of the display support apparatus can easily find a golf club to be sought and has a shaft close to the wood head of the golf club suspended on the hook, so that the tip of the shaft points. Since it can be taken out and returned to the original position, the customer can easily remove the club and return it to the original position. In addition, the features of the club were displayed more clearly, and the quality of the display support device was improved. As a result, customers' willingness to purchase can be increased, leading to increased sales.

  FIG. 1 is a partial external view when a wood club is suspended in an embodiment of a golf club display support apparatus according to the present invention. (2) is a wood club, (4) is a wood head, (6) is a shaft, (8) is a face surface, (12) is the tip of a flat bar as a connecting member, and (14) is a hook member.

  FIG. 2 is the same partial external view as FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a view seen from the front of the exhibition support device, and FIG. 2 is a view seen from the side. (10) is a coupling portion between the wood head portion (4) and the shaft portion (6) of the golf club, (16) is a side bar, and (18) is coupled to the tip portion of the flat bar and fastened to the side bar. It is a member.

  3 and 4 are views showing the hook part attached to the flat bar (12) as a connecting member in which the golf club is removed from FIGS. 1 and 2 and the structure of the hook part is more clearly understood. It is. (20) is a concave portion for receiving the convex portion of the wood club, (32) is a support portion for supporting the wood head portion, and (34) is a support portion for semi-fixing and supporting the face surface. Reference numeral (36) denotes a receiving portion for receiving the shaft so as to be semi-fixed.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, almost the entire surface of the wood head (4) of the wood club (12) suspended from the hook member (14) can be seen from the front of the display support device. Yes. As shown in FIG. 2, the concave portion (20) of the hook member (14) is attached so as to be inclined with respect to the flat bar (12) so that the wood head portion (4) can be seen as in FIG. It has become.

  In that case, a plurality of hook members are attached to the flat bar (12), and the wood head of the wood club suspended on the flat bar (12) displays so that the product name and brand name of each manufacturer can be read. Is configured in a curved line so that the position of the height is lowered from the fastening portion (18) with the side bar (16) to the front of the display device.

  FIG. 5 shows an example of an overall external view of a curved flat bar (22). FIG. 6 shows a hook member (not shown) attached to the flat bar (22) and a wood club ( It is an assumed external view when five 24) are attached. Thus, since the flat bar (22) takes a lower position as it advances from the fastening portion (26) to the tip, any wood club can be attached even if a plurality of hook members are attached to the flat bar and the wood club is suspended there. As shown in FIG. 1, the wood head portion can be seen. In order to make this state, the hook member has a configuration as shown in FIGS.

  Further, when the hook member having the same configuration is attached to the curved flat bar (22), the tip direction of the shaft of the wood club suspended thereon points to one point (28) as shown in FIG. Configured. For this reason, even if the base (not shown) of the display support device is small, the golf club can be displayed stably.

  For example, in the conventional support apparatus for display, the golf club is displayed so as to hang down in the vertical direction. Therefore, referring to FIG. 6, the golf club (24-1) is perpendicular to the contact (30) portion with the flat bar. It was exhibited in the direction. Therefore, the exhibition support apparatus inevitably occupies the space of the exhibition support device, and the customer could not step into the space. As a result, the golf club was slightly bent forward and back.

  However, as shown in FIG. 7, in the case of the display support apparatus of the present invention, the position is considerably lowered from the position where the customer is standing, and the shafts are aligned toward one point (28) having a depth. The base can be made smaller, and customers can also step into the area, so golf clubs can be taken in and out easily. FIG. 7 is an overall view of the display support apparatus having six flat bars, wherein (38) is a frame body and (40) is a base portion made smaller than the conventional one. )

  In the case of the support device for exhibition of Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-136069 proposed by the applicant of the present application and progressing in practical use, the head portion of the wood club or the iron club is formed as a convex portion, and the hook portion is configured as a concave portion. And this convex part and the concave part were combined so that it could be suspended. After the suspension, the shaft descended in the vertical direction where gravity works, and it was possible to display it naturally and stably.

  However, in the case of the present application, the direction indicated by the tip of the shaft is not the vertical direction in which the gravity is directed, so the head portion, the connecting portion connected from the head portion to the shaft portion, and the hook portion that can firmly receive and semi-fix the shaft portion Was necessary.

  3 and 4, the support portion (32) that supports the wood head that is suspended from the wood club and supports the wood head, the support portion (34) that supports the inserted wood club so as not to be removed from the insertion direction, and the shaft. The housing parts (36) that are half-fixed by sandwiching the wood serve as main functions to semi-fix the wood club in the air.

  Although the description has been given centering on the wood club here, the present invention is of course applicable as an iron club display support device. In addition, in FIG. 6, a number of sheets are overlapped in the direction in front of the paper on which the drawing is drawn, and as shown in FIG.
