Description

  The present invention relates to a head cover holder that attaches and stores a head cover of a golf club to clothes during use of the club.

Golf club heads are often protected by a head cover when not in use. This is because in a golf club, the head is an extremely important part for obtaining a highly accurate shot, and is provided from the viewpoint of protecting the head from damage due to impact. However, when the golf club is used for a shot, the head cover needs to be temporarily removed, and in that case, a place for storing the head cover is required.
For example, when the golf bag or cart is near the player as in the first shot, the head cover can be stored in the golf bag or cart, or can be deposited in a caddy. However, after the second shot, the player moves to the tee ground or green while holding an arbitrary club with a head cover. In this case, the removed head cover is temporarily placed at a distance to play or stored in a pocket. For this reason, it is often misplaced or dropped from the pocket without being noticed.

Accordingly, various holders for temporarily storing (holding) the head cover have been considered. For example, in Patent Document 1, a fastening device is provided on the head cover, and a holding tool including a to-be-fastened device that is attached to the fastening device is provided on the athlete's clothing, and the head cover is temporarily attached and fixed to the clothing. It is described that can be stored.

Generally, when the head cover is attached to the body and stored, it is attached to the back body side of the player. This is because if attached and held on the front body side, there is a high possibility that it will be an obstacle to play, and it is easily disliked in golf that requires concentration.
Therefore, even in Patent Document 1, the hook-and-loop fastener-type or snap-fastener-type engaged portion is wound around the back body side of the trousers or the belt, or is inserted and fixed in the rear pocket of the trousers. The engaging part is fixed to the back body side and cannot be moved.

For this reason, the head cover of Patent Document 1 has a problem that it cannot be attached while checking with the eyes because it is an obstacle. In other words, since the head cover is attached to the holder by groping, there are many cases where the engagement portion and the engagement portion are not sufficiently aligned, and the head cover is dropped and lost before it is noticed. There is a possibility that.
In other words, there is no conventional head cover holder that can be stored on the back body side while keeping the head cover on the front body side so that it does not interfere with play, but can be attached while confirming firmly on the front body side.

  The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and its purpose is to store the head cover on the back body side so as not to interfere with play, but the holder body should be attached to the front body during installation. The object of the present invention is to provide a head cover holder that can be attached to the side by turning it to the side and confirming it firmly with eyes.

The holder main body is composed of a base end member connected to the fixture and a tip member having the engaged portion, and the tip member and the base member are interposed between the base end member and the tip member. It is preferable that an expansion / contraction coupling means for restricting the distance from the end member to be constant, and the holding body is provided with a locking device that is detachably engaged with the front body side of the clothing at the other end side. Preferably it is provided.
As a result, the head cover is engaged with the holder body fixed to the back body side of the garment, so that the head cover can be stored on the back body side so as not to interfere with play, and the holder body of the Since the other end can be turned to the front body side while one end is fixed to the rear body side, the head cover can be attached while firmly checking with eyes.

Further, the holder main body is composed of a base end member connected to the fixture and a tip member having the engaged portion, and by providing an expansion and contraction connecting means between the base end member and the tip member, At the time of installation, the distal end member is extended to the fixed base end member by the expansion / contraction means and can be turned to the front body side, so that the head cover can be attached while confirming with eyes firmly, and after the attachment, the end member is attached by the expansion / contraction connection means. Since it can be restored to its original state, the operation after installation (storage of the head cover) can be performed smoothly.
Further, the holder body is provided with a locking tool that is detachably locked to the belt thread on the front body side of the clothes, and is fixed (temporarily) with the other end turned to the front body side. Therefore, the head cover can be attached with a margin even with the golf club in one hand.
