JP3021495U - Golf putter practice device that can be undulated - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] In a golf putter practice device, the purpose is to allow the mat to have a certain undulation so that it can be practiced in a state close to the actual green. [Structure] A rectangular plastic film air bag is laid under the practice mat, and a tube is taken out from each bag and connected to the air distributor at the end of the practitioner via a three-way valve and an on-off valve, which is then connected to the air distributor. Is connected to a blower such as a fugo. When air is sent by operating the three-way valve and on-off valve of the air bag at the position you want to raise, the air bag expands and lifts the mat in that part to make ups and downs. The air bag around it is also inflated and released to adjust the shape of the undulations and close the valve at the appropriate time. The operation is performed by adjusting the three-way valve and the on-off valve collected by the practitioner.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a putter practice device in which a golf putter practice mat in a home can be provided with an optional partial bulge.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Putts play a very important part in golf competitions. The number of putts in par 72 is 36 in 18 holes. That is, half the total number of hits is the number of putts, and if you do not reduce the number of putts, you cannot be a good golfer. Unlike other clubs, practicing putters can be done using a real ball in the house almost as if it were a course, provided that the equipment is simple. Conventional putter trainers available on the market include a thick box mat attached to the bottom plate of a shallow box about 3 US long, and a horseshoe-shaped device placed at the end to serve as a cup, or the mat is cut out to make it shallow. Some have filled the cup. In addition, there is also a slanted one. However, there are few flat surfaces on the actual green surface, and it is always accompanied by undulations. Therefore, it is convenient for the practice device in the house to be able to practice not only the plane inclined surface but also the undulating surface. However, if the undulation is constant, it will not be useful and will be of any shape at any time. What can make ups and downs is desired.

[0003]

[Problems that the device is trying to solve]

 It is an object of the present invention to provide a golf putter trainer capable of making an undulation of arbitrary shape on an elongated mat at any time in order to bring it closer to the green state.

[0004]

[Means for solving problems]

 In the present invention, a long and narrow mat for golf putter practice is divided vertically and horizontally to assume a large number of rectangular sections. It is a golf putter practice device that can be undulated by connecting a three-way valve and an on-off valve to the air distributor through pipes in that order, and connecting the air distributor to a foot-operated Huigo or electric blower such as an electric air compressor. . Further, in the above putter training device, the three-way valve provided in the pipe between each air bag and the air distributor may be eliminated and an on-off valve for exhausting air directly to each air bag may be attached. Furthermore, instead of a three-way valve and an open / close valve that are sequentially inserted in the pipes that connect the air bags to the air distributor, a single cylinder and a switching valve consisting of a notched cylinder can be inserted to reduce the number of valves. can do.

[0005]

[Action]

 To use this device, first arrange flat air bags made of plastic film in predetermined positions according to the display numbers, but place the center of the air bags in advance in the above-mentioned arrangement on the back of the mat. May be. Each air bag and air distributor are pipe-connected from the air bag side through a three-way valve and an on-off valve, and a mat is spread over it to form a flat pattern training machine. Furthermore, by connecting the air distributor and the air blower to the pipe, switch the air distributor on / off valve and the three-way valve to the air bag of the part where you want to make ups and downs, and switch the air bag to the air bag to inflate it to the desired height. The on-off valve is closed to block the inflow of air.

Next, air is also sent to the surrounding air bag to inflate it, and the three-way valve is adjusted and released so that the undulations made by the first air bag are gentle, and when the moderate gradient is reached, the three-way valve is opened. Switch to the original air inflow. This completes the ups and downs making it possible to practice putters. All of the above operations can be performed at the hitting position. If an on-off valve that directly discharges air is attached to each air bag, go to the position of the air bag to open and close the on-off valve to adjust the air. Further, in place of the three-way valve and the on-off valve inserted in the pipe connecting each air bag and the air distributor, a switching valve composed of a cylinder and a notched cylinder described in a third embodiment described below is used. The number is reduced and the operation becomes easier.

【Example】

 First Embodiment FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of an embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a side view showing a connection of an air distributor, an on-off valve, and a three-way valve. FIG. 3 is an explanatory view of the action of the on-off valve and the three-way valve. FIG. 4 is a diagram in which an air release valve is attached to the air bag, and FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram of a cylinder valve which replaces the on-off valve and the three-way valve. 1 is a thin underlay cloth to be laid under the practice device, and according to the numbers written in two rows on the surface thereof, the air bags 2 of that number are placed in two rows or lined up, or the lower center part of the air bag 2 is clothed with an adhesive. You may attach it to 1 and put it. When mat 3 is laid on top of it, it becomes a mat for plane practice. If the air bag 2 is adhered to the back of the mat 3, the underlayment 1 is not always necessary. The pipes 4 extending from the respective bags to the outside of the mat are collected in each row, piped along the sides of the mat 3, and connected to a predetermined nozzle 8 of the air distributor 5. The air distributor 5 is mounted on the pillar 6 at the hitting position, and the pipe from the foot-operated fugo 7 is also connected thereto. The air distributor 5 has the same number of nozzles 8 as the number of air bags 2, and each nozzle is provided with an on-off valve 11 and a three-way valve 10 sequentially from the air distributor side. In this case, if a rubber tube is used as the pipe, the on-off valve 11 may be a pinch type pinch 11 used in a chemical laboratory. Since the number of pipes is large, the air distributor 5 may be divided for each row. The three-way valve 10 is densely packed in a narrow space in front of the air distributor 5, and it is inconvenient to rotate it with a finger. Therefore, the knob is not installed in the three-way valve, and a separately manufactured common three-way valve knob 12 that can be inserted into a narrow space is used.

The three-way valve 10 has the same structure as a gas cooker for home cooking, and has holes formed in the valve and the valve body at a right angle when air is flowing. The diagram in FIG. 3 shows the case of air circulation, the diagram shows the case of air circulation stop, and the diagram shows the case of air release from the air bladder. After connecting one set of on-off valve 11 and three-way valve 10 to air distributor 5, only pipe 7 of fugo 7 is used to open and close only the air bag 2 where the undulation is to be made. 10 is switched to air bag 2 feed, air is fed by stepping on the fugo 7 (Fig.), It is inflated to the desired height, and the on-off valve 11 is closed to block the inflow and outflow of air (Fig.). Next, air is also sent to the surrounding air bladder 2 to inflate it, and the three-way valve 10 is adjusted so that the undulation made by the first air bladder 2 is gentle (Fig.), And an appropriate gradient is obtained. At some times, the three-way valve 10 is switched back to the original air inflow to stop the air release and shut off the air bag 2. This completes the ups and downs making it possible to practice putters. All of the above operations can be performed at the hitting position.

Second Embodiment FIG. 4 is a view in which an air release on-off valve 13 is directly attached to the air bag 2. When attaching the air release on-off valve 13 directly to the air bladder 2, place it on the air release rubber tube by attaching a combination of male screw and female screw lid such as a floating bag type air blow port or a single pinch, It is sufficient to go to the position of the air bag 2 and open it. In this case, the three-way valve 10 of the air distributor 5 is unnecessary.

Third Embodiment A switching valve is provided in which the inflow, release and closing of air in the air bladder 2 is provided by a single valve, the structure of which is shown in FIG. A cylinder type switching valve including a cylinder 16 and a notched cylinder 17 is used as the switching valve. In FIG. 5A, air is blown into the air bag 2 from the air chamber 8 while the knob 18 is being pushed by the finger, and in FIG. B, when the finger is released, the column 17 is lifted by the force of the lower spring 19 and the air chamber 8 is The air in the bladder 2 can be released by being shut off, and Fig. C shows that the inflation of the bladder 2 is kept constant by pulling up the knob 18 to simultaneously close both the air distributor 5 and the air outlet 9. You will be able to practice. At this time, the knob 18 receives the repulsive force by compressing the upper spring 20, so in order to maintain this state, the knock pin 21 is fixed to the knob shaft, and the knob 18 is pulled up so that the knock pin 21 cuts the cylinder cover. When it goes out through the outside, the knob 18 is rotated by a small angle to prevent its lowering.

[Effect of device]

 You can practice putters at home, so there are various types of practice equipment on the market, but they are all for plane practice. However, it is rarely a flat surface in a real green, so practice with a flat surface is not really useful. On the other hand, the present invention allows the practice device to be provided with any undulations, whereby it is possible to learn to what extent the undulations cause a change in direction, the strength of the hit ball, etc. It is also possible to achieve great battle results. In this device, many air bags are laid under the mat, but the air bag is nothing more than two plastic films stuck together, and the surface of the mat laid on it is uneven. You can also practice plane patterns. The mat can be rolled up in a small size, which is convenient for storage.
