Abstract

(57) Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a golf ball improved so that the flight distance of a hit ball can be increased and unnecessary rotation of the hit ball can be prevented. SOLUTION: A means for solving the problem is that an inorganic coating material is applied to the surface of a golf ball.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention relates to improvements in golf balls.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, various improvements have been made to golf equipment such as golf clubs and golf balls in order to fly straight to a distance as little as possible.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the conventional golf ball, the flight distance of a hit ball is limited. Further, in the conventional golf ball, the surface of the golf ball is apt to be scratched when hit by a golf club or hit a tree or the like scattered on the course. In such a scratched state, the rotation axis of the ball is slightly deviated, resulting in unnecessary rotation of the ball, that is, the ball flies while rotating unintentionally by the player, and slices and hooks are likely to occur. There was a problem.

The present invention has been made in view of the above conventional problems, and provides a golf ball improved so as to increase the flight distance of a hit ball and prevent unnecessary rotation of the hit ball. Is an issue.

[0005]

[Means for solving the problem]

 The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and a means for solving the problem is to apply an inorganic coating material to the surface of a golf ball. More specifically, as in the means described in claim 2, the inorganic coating material is composed of a silicon compound type hard coating agent.

The golf ball constituted by the above means is coated with an inorganic coating material having excellent wear resistance, heat resistance and the like and a property of protecting the adhered surface, so that the surface is extremely hard. Therefore, the flight distance of a golf ball hit by a golf club is longer than that of a conventional golf ball. Further, since the surface of the golf ball becomes extremely harder than that of the conventional golf ball due to such a coating, the surface of the golf ball is less likely to be scratched by the impact of the golf club, etc. Therefore, the rotation axis of the golf ball is not displaced The ball does not fly while making unnecessary rotations.

Further, the means according to claim 3 is that the inorganic coating material is composed of a silicone-based hard coating agent. Further, the means of claim 4 is that the surface 2 is coated with a urethane-based paint having abrasion resistance and water repellency. If the surface 2 is coated with a silicone-based hard coat agent or a urethane-based paint having abrasion resistance and water repellency as in this means, the water repellency will increase the flight distance of the above-mentioned hit ball and unnecessary rotation. Not only can it be prevented, water droplets will also be less likely to adhere, and the golf ball will not slip subtly when hit by a golf club.

[0008]

[Embodiment of device]

 An embodiment of a golf club of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, 1 indicates a commonly used golf ball. The surface of the golf ball 1 is coated with a silicone hard coating agent as an inorganic coating material.

The golf ball 1 having the above-mentioned structure has the surface 2 coated with an inorganic coating material having excellent wear resistance, heat resistance and the like, and the property of protecting the adherend. However, the number is significantly higher than that of the conventional golf club. Therefore, when such a golf ball 1 is hit with a golf club, the flight distance of the hit ball becomes long. In addition, the surface 2 of the golf ball coated with such a coating becomes extremely hard, and the surface is less likely to be scratched by the impact of a golf club, etc. Therefore, the ball does not rotate unnecessarily.

In the above embodiment, a silicone-based hard coating agent is used as the inorganic coating material, but the inorganic coating material is not necessarily limited to the silicone-based hard coating material, and other silicon compound-based materials are used. In addition, a silicon compound-based hard coating agent containing a binder that can firmly adhere to the surface to be coated may be used as the coating material. Further, in place of the above inorganic paint, a urethane paint having abrasion resistance and water repellency may be applied to the surface 2 of the golf ball 1. If a silicone hard coat agent or a urethane coating that has abrasion resistance and water repellency is used, the water repellency will be excellent, and it will be difficult for water droplets to adhere to the surface of the golf ball. There is an advantage that subtle slippage can be prevented.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, since the golf ball according to the present invention has the surface coated with the inorganic coating material, the surface thereof becomes extremely hard and the flight distance of the hit ball becomes longer than that of the conventional golf ball. Moreover, since the surface is not easily scratched, the hit ball does not rotate unnecessarily.

Further, according to the means of claim 3 or 4, there is an advantage that water droplets are hard to adhere to the surface of the golf ball, and the golf ball is hard to slip when hit by a golf club.
