Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a golf tee that is used by inserting a shaft portion into the soil, and more particularly to a golf tee that has durability and can set the position of a golf ball at a desired height.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 A golf tee used to stand a golf ball vertically on the ground surface has a shaft part with a diameter of about 5 mm for insertion into the ground and a diameter for mounting the golf ball. A trumpet-shaped wooden thing shown by reference numeral 4 in FIG. 5 having a golf ball mounting surface of about 12 mm formed on the upper surface is generally used.

In the case of the above-mentioned wooden golf tee, the height of the golf ball mounting surface cannot be adjusted, and since the golf tee is made of a thin rod, the air resistance is small. There was a problem that it scattered and impaired the aesthetics of the golf course.

In order to solve such a problem, a plurality of golf tees having different height differences are connected to each other so that the golfer can select and use a corfu tee having a desired height at the time of use. (For example, see Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 61-73366), which allows height adjustment of a golf ball mounting surface by screwing a female screw and a male screw (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-15665). In addition, the material of the golf tee itself is decomposed by microorganisms in the soil, which makes it unnecessary to collect scattered golf tees (for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 7-3680, Japanese Utility Model Publication 62-62). 186765 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-111372) have been proposed.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, among the conventional examples, the golf tees connected to each other have a problem in that an unnecessary golf tee must be carried around.

Further, in the structure in which the height of the golf ball mounting surface is adjusted by screwing, the screwing portion may be damaged by the impact from the club at the time of hitting the ball, and the durability is not good. There was a problem.

[0007] Furthermore, the golf tee having a property of decomposing with soil bacteria has a problem that it is uneconomical because it is not reused.

The present invention was created to address the above situation.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The invention according to claim 1 of the present invention is a head having a bearing for supporting a shaft portion of a golf tee formed inside a side wall on which a golf ball can be mounted and a bottom surface at an upper edge. And a shaft portion having a tapered lower end, and the shaft portion is attached so as to extend obliquely downward from the lower portion of the head portion.

The invention according to claim 2 of the present invention is characterized in that a cord is detachably attached to the head portion to facilitate the work of collecting a golf tee that has been blown by a golf club and dropped to the ground surface. And

In the invention according to claim 3 of the present invention, the lower part of the shaft portion of the golf tee has an upper surface as a peripheral surface, a lower surface is provided with a flat inclined surface or a recess, and the lower end is formed sharply. It is characterized by being a thing.

The invention according to claim 4 of the present invention is characterized in that the shaft portion is provided with a scale along the axial direction.

The invention according to claim 5 of the present invention is characterized in that the shaft portion is provided with a stopper.

[0014]

[Embodiment of the invention]

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

1 to 5, the head 1 is made of a soft synthetic resin such as vinyl chloride, and has a bottomed cylindrical shape with an open top. Specifically, a cylindrical side wall 3 is continuously provided from the entire peripheral edge of the bottom surface 2, and a bearing 5 for inserting a shaft portion of an existing golf tee 4 is provided on the bottom surface 2. The bottom surface of the bearing 5 is opened. To form the string insertion hole 6. The string 7 is attached to the head 1 so that the upper end is hooked at the hole edge of the string insertion hole 6 so as to be positioned inside the bearing 5 and the lower end is positioned outside the head 1. A shaft portion 8 extending obliquely downward is provided on the lower side of the head 1. The shaft portion 8 is made of a hard material and has a scale along the axial direction. An annular rubber 9 is fitted at a desired position of the shaft portion 8.

Next, the operation will be described. In the golf tee according to the present embodiment, the shaft portion 8 is inserted into the soil 10 while being inclined, and the golf ball 11 is placed on the upper edge of the side wall 3 as shown in FIG. 4, or as shown in FIG. The shaft portion of the existing golf tee 4 is inserted into the bearing 5 and the golf ball 11 is mounted on the golf ball mounting surface of the golf tee 4 for use. The annular rubber 9 is caught on the ground surface when the shaft portion 8 is inserted into the soil 10, and is not buried in the soil for a length longer than a desired length. Since the lower end lower side surface of the shaft portion 8 comes into surface contact with the soil, it is hard to fall down during use.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the golf ball 11 is placed on the upper edge of the side wall 3 for use, the shaft portion 8 is positioned so that the shaft end is located in the front and the head 1 is located in the rear. Inserting into the soil 10 allows the golfer to easily strike the desired fade, draw, or straight ball.

[0018]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the head of the present invention is made of a soft synthetic resin, it has the effect of being less likely to be damaged by an impact when hitting a ball.

Further, since the head is composed of the bottom surface and the peripheral wall, the surface area is large and the air resistance is larger than that of the conventional golf tee, so that the string dropped to a short distance of the golfer even after the ball is hit. There is an effect that the recovery work is easy by lifting the.

Further, since the golf ball is received by the upper edge of the side wall of the head, there is an effect that the stability is good.

Further, when the position of the golf ball is further raised, it can be used in combination with the existing golf tee, so that there is an effect that it is economical.
