Description

本発明はゴルフクラブに係り、更に詳しくは、グリップの長さを調整することでシャフトの全長を可変とすることのできるゴルフクラブに関する。 The present invention relates to a golf club, and more particularly to a golf club capable of changing the overall length of a shaft by adjusting the length of a grip.

ゴルフクラブ用シャフトは、メーカー毎に規格化された長さに設定されている。例えば、アイアンゴルフクラブ用のシャフトの場合、番手が小さくなるに従って０．５インチずつ長くなるように設定することが行われ、これにより、飛距離、コントロールの容易性等、番手毎の特性を良好に発揮できるように設計されている。 The golf club shaft is set to a standardized length for each manufacturer. For example, in the case of a shaft for an iron golf club, it is set so that the length is increased by 0.5 inches as the count is reduced, thereby improving the characteristics for each count such as flight distance and ease of control. It is designed so that it can be demonstrated.

しかしながら、番手に応じて長さを一定に変化させたとしても、その利用者であるゴルファーの身長、或いは技量が様々であることから、番手ごとに規則性をもってシャフトの長さを変えてもすべてのゴルファーにとって使い勝手が良いものとは限らない。 However, even if the length is changed according to the count, the height or skill of the golfer who is the user varies, so even if the length of the shaft is changed regularly for each count, It is not always easy to use for golfers.

例えば、背丈の高い人或いは飛距離を稼ぎたい人にとっては、市販されたシャフト長さよりも更に長いものを希望する場合があり、コントロールの容易性を追求する人にとっては、規格化された長さに対して相対的に短いシャフトを希望する場合もある。 For example, for those who are tall or want to earn a flight distance, they may want a longer shaft length than the commercially available shaft length, and for those who seek ease of control, the standardized length In some cases, a relatively short shaft may be desired.

特許文献１には、シャフト全長を可変とするパターが提案されている。このパターは、シャフトの後端側を構成するグリップ部と、当該グリップ部の後端部に連結可能な連結用のグリップとを備えて構成されている。このパターは、グリップの先端に刃先部が設けられており、当該刃先部でグリップ部の端面を掘削するように連結することでシャフトの全長が延長可能となっている。 Patent Document 1 proposes a putter that can change the overall length of the shaft. This putter is configured to include a grip portion that forms the rear end side of the shaft and a connecting grip that can be connected to the rear end portion of the grip portion. This putter has a cutting edge provided at the tip of the grip, and the entire length of the shaft can be extended by connecting the cutting edge so as to excavate the end face of the grip.

特開平８−７１１８４号公報JP-A-8-71184

しかしながら、特許文献１記載のものはパターに特化したものに過ぎず、アイアンゴルフクラブやウッドタイプのゴルフクラブへの適用特性を備えたものとはなっていない。つまり、特許文献１記載のものは、刃先部をグリップ部の後端面に差し込むだけの連結であるから、通常のゴルフクラブのように、スイング時に大きな遠心力を生ずるクラブの場合、当該遠心力によって連結が解除され、いわゆる「すっぽ抜け」を生じてしまう、という不都合がある。
特許文献１に記載された構成は、振り幅が相対的に小さく遠心力を殆ど考慮しなくてよい場合に適用できるだけで、グリップの長さを調整することによってシャフトの全長を調整するパター以外のゴルフクラブには適用不可能となっている。 However, the thing of patent document 1 is only what was specialized in the putter, and does not have an application characteristic to an iron golf club or a wood type golf club. That is, since the thing of patent document 1 is a connection which only inserts a blade edge | tip part in the rear-end surface of a grip part, in the case of the club which produces a big centrifugal force at the time of a swing like a normal golf club, by the said centrifugal force There is an inconvenience that the connection is released and a so-called “slip-out” occurs.
The configuration described in Patent Document 1 can be applied only when the swing width is relatively small and the centrifugal force need not be taken into consideration. Other than the putter that adjusts the overall length of the shaft by adjusting the length of the grip. It is not applicable to golf clubs.
