Description

本発明は、ゴルフのパターを構成するためのパターヘッドに関するものであり、特に、カスタマイズ可能な中間部材を備えたパターヘッドに関するものである。 The present invention relates to a putter head for constructing a golf putter, and more particularly to a putter head with a customizable intermediate member.

従来より、パターヘッドでボールを打球する際の衝撃を吸収しかつ打感を高めるため、パターヘッドの前部材と後部材との間にウレタン樹脂などよりなるインサートを設ける技術が提案されている。例えば、日本国特開平11-114112号公報には、ボールをヒットするフェース面を備えシャフト装着部を含む前部分とフェース面背後の後部分とを合着してヘッド本体を構成し、前部分をインゴットを切削加工して形成し、後部分を鋳造加工して形成したパターヘッドが開示されている。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a technique has been proposed in which an insert made of urethane resin or the like is provided between a front member and a rear member of a putter head in order to absorb the impact and improve the feel when hitting a ball with a putter head. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-114112 discloses that a head body is constructed by combining a front part including a shaft mounting part, which has a face surface that hits the ball, and a rear part behind the face surface, and the front part A putter head is disclosed in which the putter head is formed by cutting an ingot and the rear part is formed by casting.

また、前半体や後半体を交換可能にすることにより、プレーする日の体調やパッティンググリーンの芝の種類、状況等に応じてパター特性を調節することができる技術も提案されている。例えば、日本国特開2009-297210号公報には、シャフト取付部を有し、前面がフェース面となっている前半体と、該前半体の後側に着脱可能に取り付けられた後半体と、該前半体と後半体との間に配置されたゴム又は合成樹脂よりなるインサートと、を備え、該インサートは、平板状の第1インサートと、該第1インサートと一体又は別体であり、該第1のインサートよりも小面積であり、第1インサートの前面側に配置された第2インサートとを備えて、該前半体の背面には、該第2インサートが嵌合した凹部が設けられているパターヘッドが開示されている。 Furthermore, a technology has been proposed in which the putter characteristics can be adjusted according to the player's physical condition on the day of play, the type of grass on the putting green, the situation, etc. by making the front half and the back half interchangeable. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2009-297210 discloses a front half body having a shaft attachment part and whose front face is a face surface, a second half body detachably attached to the rear side of the front half body, an insert made of rubber or synthetic resin disposed between the front half body and the second half body, the insert being integral with or separate from the first insert, and having a flat plate shape; and a second insert having a smaller area than the first insert and disposed on the front side of the first insert, and a recess into which the second insert is fitted is provided on the back surface of the front half body. A putter head is disclosed.

次に、図4は、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成(WIDEという)を概略的に示す分解斜視図である。なお、当該WIDEと同じ形状で、かつ当該STDと同程度の重量を有するパターヘッド1の構成を、以下、WIDE360と呼ぶこととする。本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、後側部材20と、これらの間に介在された中間部材30とを備える。図3に示す中間部材30と比較すると、図4に示す中間部材30は、前後方向の幅がより大きくなっており、50mmとなっている。図示のように、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、中間部材30との間に防振部材40を備えるようにしてもよい。その他の構成としては、図2、3と基本的に同様であるため、詳細を省略する。図4の例は、図3の態様に比べて、重心深さがより深く、慣性モーメント(MOI)がより大きくなる。スイングストロークが大きく、テンポや振り幅で距離感を合わせるプレーヤにとり、さらに安定してスイングするのに適している。これは、慣性モーメント(MOI)の値が大きいほど、方向性や距離感をプレーヤ側で調節しにくくなるものの、よりストロークやインパクトの安定性の向上に繋がる。 Next, FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view schematically showing the configuration (referred to as WIDE) of the putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Note that the configuration of the putter head 1 having the same shape as the WIDE and approximately the same weight as the STD will be hereinafter referred to as WIDE360. A putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front member 10, a rear member 20, and an intermediate member 30 interposed therebetween. Compared to the intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 3, the intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 4 has a larger width in the front-rear direction, which is 50 mm. As illustrated, the putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a vibration isolating member 40 between the front member 10 and the intermediate member 30. The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2 and 3, so details will be omitted. The example of FIG. 4 has a deeper center of gravity and a larger moment of inertia (MOI) than the embodiment of FIG. It is suitable for players who have a long swing stroke and who adjust their sense of distance by adjusting the tempo and swing width, and to swing more stably. This is because the larger the value of the moment of inertia (MOI), the more difficult it becomes for the player to adjust directionality and sense of distance, but this leads to more stable strokes and impact.

さらに、図5を参照して、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成(WIDE360という)を説明する。図5は、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成を概略的に示す分解斜視図である。本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、後側部材20と、これらの間に介在された中間部材30とを備える。図3、4に示す中間部材30と比較すると、図5に示す中間部材30は、前後方向の幅がさらに大きくなっており、65mmとなっている。図示のように、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、中間部材30との間に防振部材40を備えるようにしてもよい。その他の構成としては、図2、3と基本的に同様であるため、詳細を省略する。図5の例は、図4の態様に比べて、重心深さがより深く、慣性モーメント(MOI)がより大きくなる。スイングストロークが大きく、テンポや振り幅で距離感を合わせるプレーヤにとり、さらに安定してスイングするのに適している。これは、慣性モーメント(MOI)の値が大きいほど、方向性や距離感をプレーヤ側で調節しにくくなるものの、よりストロークやインパクトの安定性の向上に繋がる。 Furthermore, with reference to FIG. 5, the configuration of the putter head 1 (referred to as WIDE 360) according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view schematically showing the configuration of a putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front member 10, a rear member 20, and an intermediate member 30 interposed therebetween. Compared to the intermediate member 30 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 5 has a wider width in the front-rear direction, which is 65 mm. As illustrated, the putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a vibration isolating member 40 between the front member 10 and the intermediate member 30. The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2 and 3, so details will be omitted. The example in FIG. 5 has a deeper center of gravity and a larger moment of inertia (MOI) than the embodiment in FIG. It is suitable for players who have a long swing stroke and who adjust their sense of distance by adjusting the tempo and swing width, and to swing more stably. This is because the larger the value of the moment of inertia (MOI), the more difficult it becomes for the player to adjust directionality and sense of distance, but this leads to more stable strokes and impact.

このように、中間部材として種々のものを選択することで、ユーザの好みに応じたカスタマイズを行うことができる。また、中間部材の比重を小さくすることで、サイズを大きくしてもヘッド全体の重量増加を抑制できるため、ヘッド全体としてのバランスを維持することができ、かっ比重が大きい部材を前後に配置することで慣性モーメントを大きくすることが可能となる。 In this way, by selecting various intermediate members, customization can be performed according to the user's preferences. In addition, by reducing the specific gravity of the intermediate member, it is possible to suppress the increase in the weight of the entire head even if the size is increased, so it is possible to maintain the balance of the entire head, and it is possible to place members with higher specific gravity in the front and rear. This makes it possible to increase the moment of inertia.

次に、図10を参照して、図2-4(図4の態様では、WIDE,WIDE360の双
方を含む)の各態様毎の速度、角速度、スピン量の結果をインパクト後0.03sの間、
ファーストバウンド後0.01s間に分けて示したものである。各態様につき3回計測を
行い、その結果を平均値と共にしている。ここで、図10では、前述の通り、図2の態様をSTD、図3の態様をMID、図4の態様をWIDE、WIDE360に対応するものとして示している。
Next, referring to FIG. 10, the results of the velocity, angular velocity, and spin amount for each aspect of FIG. 2-4 (the aspect of FIG. 4 includes both WIDE and WIDE360) are calculated for 0.03 seconds after impact. ,
It is shown divided into 0.01 seconds after the first bounce. Measurements were performed three times for each aspect, and the results are shown together with the average value. Here, in FIG. 10, as described above, the aspect of FIG. 2 is shown as STD, the aspect of FIG. 3 is shown as MID, and the aspect of FIG. 4 is shown as WIDE, which corresponds to WIDE360.

まず、STDとMIDの試験結果の比較を行う。図示のように、STDでは、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.19m/s、角速度の平均が-180deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.12m/s、角速度の平均が713deg/sとなっているのに対して、MIDでは、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.27m/s、角速度の平均が-181deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.22m/s、角速度の平均が664deg/sとなっている。 First, the test results of STD and MID will be compared. As shown in the figure, in STD, the average velocity at impact is 2.19 m/s, the average angular velocity is -180 deg/s, the average velocity at first bounce is 2.12 m/s, and the average angular velocity is 713 deg/s. In contrast, with MID, the average speed at impact is 2.27 m/s, the average angular velocity is -181 deg/s, the average speed at first bounce is 2.22 m/s, and the angular velocity is The average is 664 deg/s.

また、図示のように、STDでは、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が-30.0rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が118.9rpmとなっているのに対して、MIDでは、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が30.1rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が110.7rpmとなっている。 Also, as shown in the figure, in STD, the average spin rate at impact is -30.0 rpm and the average spin rate at first bounce is 118.9 rpm, whereas in MID, the average spin rate at impact is -30.0 rpm, and the average spin rate at impact is 118.9 rpm. The average spin amount is 30.1 rpm, and the average spin amount at the first bounce is 110.7 rpm.

これらの結果から、STDは、MIDに比べて、重心深さが浅く、慣性モーメント(MOI)が小さくなるため、スイングストロークが小さく、テンポや打感で距離感を合わせるプレーヤにとり、STDは、感覚に合わせて自身で方向性や距離をコントロールするのに適していることが判る。また、STDでは、短いストロークで強いインパクトをしてもMIDに比して転がり過ぎないという特徴もあることが判る。他方、MIDでは、スイングストロークが大きく、テンポや振り幅で距離感を合わせるプレーヤにとり、より安定してスイングするのに適していることが判る。 From these results, compared to MID, STD has a shallower center of gravity and a smaller moment of inertia (MOI), so for players who have a smaller swing stroke and adjust their sense of distance with tempo and feel, STD has a shallow center of gravity and a smaller moment of inertia (MOI). It turns out that it is suitable for controlling the direction and distance by yourself according to the situation. Also, it can be seen that STD has the characteristic that it does not roll too much compared to MID even if there is a strong impact with a short stroke. On the other hand, it can be seen that MID is suitable for players who have a large swing stroke and who adjust the sense of distance by adjusting the tempo and swing width to swing more stably.

次に、WIDEとMIDの試験結果の比較を行う。図示のように、WIDEでは、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.41m/s、角速度の平均が-180.6deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.27m/s、角速度の平均が548deg/sとなっているのに対して、MIDでは、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.27m/s、角速度の平均が-181deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.22m/s、角速度の平均が664deg/sとなっている。 Next, the WIDE and MID test results will be compared. As shown in the figure, in WIDE, the average velocity at impact is 2.41 m/s, the average angular velocity is -180.6 deg/s, the average velocity at first bounce is 2.27 m/s, and the average angular velocity is On the other hand, with MID, the average speed at impact is 2.27m/s, the average angular velocity is -181deg/s, and the average speed at first bounce is 2.22m/s. , the average angular velocity is 664 deg/s.

また、図示のように、WIDEでは、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が-30.1rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が91.3rpmとなっているのに対して、MIDでは、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が30.1rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が110.7rpmとなっている。 Also, as shown in the figure, in WIDE, the average spin amount at impact is -30.1 rpm and the average spin amount at first bounce is 91.3 rpm, whereas in MID, the average spin amount at impact is -30.1 rpm, and the average spin amount at impact is 91.3 rpm. The average spin amount is 30.1 rpm, and the average spin amount at the first bounce is 110.7 rpm.

これらのことから、WIDEは、MIDに比べて、重心深さがより深く、慣性モーメント(MOI)が大きくなり、慣性モーメント(MOI)の値が大きいほど、方向性や距離感をプレーヤ側で調節しにくくなるものの、よりストロークやインパクトの安定性の向上に繋がることが判る。 For these reasons, WIDE has a deeper center of gravity and a larger moment of inertia (MOI) than MID, and the larger the moment of inertia (MOI), the easier it is for the player to adjust directionality and sense of distance. Although it is more difficult to do, it can be seen that it leads to improved stroke and impact stability.

次に、WIDEとWIDE360の試験結果の比較を行う。図示のように、WIDEでは、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.41m/s、角速度の平均が-180.6deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.27m/s、角速度の平均が548deg/sとなっているのに対して、WIDE360では、インパクト時の速度の平均が2.26m/s、角速度の平均が-121deg/s、ファーストバウンド時の速度の平均が2.22m/s、角速度の平均が412deg/sとなっている。 Next, the test results of WIDE and WIDE360 will be compared. As shown in the figure, in WIDE, the average velocity at impact is 2.41 m/s, the average angular velocity is -180.6 deg/s, the average velocity at first bounce is 2.27 m/s, and the average angular velocity is In contrast, with WIDE360, the average speed at impact is 2.26 m/s, the average angular velocity is -121 deg/s, and the average speed at first bounce is 2.22 m/s. , the average angular velocity is 412 deg/s.

また、図示のように、WIDEでは、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が-30.1rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が91.3rpmとなっているのに対して、WIDE360では、インパクト時のスピン量の平均が-20.13rpm、ファーストバウンド時のスピン量の平均が68.6rpmとなっている。 Also, as shown in the figure, in WIDE, the average spin rate at impact is -30.1 rpm and the average spin rate at first bounce is 91.3 rpm, whereas in WIDE 360, the average spin rate at impact is -30.1 rpm, and the average spin rate at impact is 91.3 rpm. The average spin amount is -20.13 rpm, and the average spin amount at the first bounce is 68.6 rpm.

これらのことから、WIDEは、重量が凡そSTDと同じで軽量であるWIDE360に比べて、重心深さがより深く、慣性モーメント(MOI)が大きくなり、慣性モーメント(MOI)の値が大きいほど、方向性や距離感をプレーヤ側で調節しにくくなるものの、よりストロークやインパクトの安定性の向上に繋がることが判る。また、WIDE360は、外観としては、WIDEと同じであるが、総合的にMIDに近い性能を発揮することができ、プレーヤの好みに応じた選択を行うことができる。 For these reasons, WIDE has a deeper center of gravity and a larger moment of inertia (MOI) than WIDE360, which is lighter and has the same weight as STD. Although it becomes difficult for the player to adjust directionality and sense of distance, it can be seen that this leads to improved stability of strokes and impact. Further, WIDE 360 has the same appearance as WIDE, but can exhibit overall performance close to MID, and can be selected according to the player's preference.

さらに、異なる中間部材30としてどのような態様が考えられるかを、図5に示す例の変形例について図6-9を参照して説明する。図6は、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成を概略的に示す斜視図である。本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、後側部材20と、これらの間に介在された中間部材30とを備える。図6に示す中間部材30は、図5と同様、前後方向の幅は同じで、65mmとなっているが、慣性モーメントの向上、軽量化や意匠性の観点から、中央部分に略三角形状の切欠き50が形成されている。その他の構成としては、図2、3等と基本的に同様であるため、詳細を省略する。プレーヤが、ストロークの際、真直ぐ引きやすくする効果がある(アライメント性の向上)。また、中間部材30がより大きくなると、打球時の打音が鈍く響く傾向があり、切り欠き形状があることで、打球時の反響音を抑える効果もある(中間部材の幅が特に10mm程度以上となると打球音が鈍くなる傾向がみられる)。 Further, what types of different intermediate members 30 can be considered will be described with reference to FIGS. 6-9 regarding a modification of the example shown in FIG. 5. FIG. 6 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of a putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 6 has the same width in the front and back direction as in FIG. A notch 50 is formed. The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2, 3, etc., so details will be omitted. This has the effect of making it easier for the player to draw the stroke straight (improved alignment). In addition, if the intermediate member 30 becomes larger, the sound when the ball is hit tends to be dull, and the cutout shape also has the effect of suppressing the echo sound when the ball is hit (particularly when the width of the intermediate member is about 10 mm or more) (There is a tendency for the sound of the ball to become dull.)

A putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front member 10, a rear member 20, and an intermediate member 30 interposed therebetween. The intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 7 has the same width in the front-rear direction as in FIGS. 5 and 6, which is 65 mm, but from the viewpoint of improving the moment of inertia, reducing weight, and improving rigidity, the intermediate member 30 has a substantially square shape in the center part. A shaped notch 51 and a rigid reinforcing member 60 are formed. The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2, 3, etc., so details will be omitted. As mentioned above, this has the effect of making it easier for the player to draw the stroke straight (improvement of alignment). In addition, if the intermediate member 30 becomes larger, the sound when the ball is hit tends to be dull, and the cutout shape also has the effect of suppressing the echo sound when the ball is hit (particularly when the width of the intermediate member is about 10 mm or more) (There is a tendency for the sound of the ball to become dull.)

図8は、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成を概略的に示す斜視図である。本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、後側部材20と、これらの間に介在された中間部材30とを備える。図8に示す中間部材30は、図5、6、7と同様、前後方向の幅は同じで、65mmとなっているが、慣性モーメントの向上、軽量化や意匠性の観点から、中央部分に略円形形状の切欠き52が2箇所形成されている。その他の構成としては、図2、3等と基本的に同様であるため、詳細を省略する。プレーヤが、ストロークの際、真直ぐ引きやすくする効果がある(アライメント性の向上)。また、中間部材30がより大きくなると、打球時の打音が鈍く響く傾向があり、切り欠き形状があることで、打球時の反響音を抑える効果もある(中間部材の幅が特に10mm程度以上となると打球音が鈍くなる傾向がみられる)。 FIG. 8 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of a putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front member 10, a rear member 20, and an intermediate member 30 interposed therebetween.

The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2, 3, etc., so details will be omitted. This has the effect of making it easier for the player to draw the stroke straight (improved alignment). In addition, if the intermediate member 30 becomes larger, the sound when the ball is hit tends to be dull, and the cutout shape also has the effect of suppressing the echo sound when the ball is hit (particularly when the width of the intermediate member is about 10 mm or more) (There is a tendency for the sound of the ball to become dull.)

図9は、本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1の構成を概略的に示す斜視図である。本発明の一実施形態に係るパターヘッド1は、前側部材10と、後側部材20と、これらの間に介在された中間部材30とを備える。図9に示す中間部材30は、図5、6、7、8と同様、前後方向の幅は同じで、65mmとなっているが、慣性モーメントの向上、軽量化及び剛性向上の観点から、中央部分に略長円形状の切欠き53が2箇所形成されている。その他の構成としては、図2、3等と基本的に同様であるため、詳細を省略する。プレーヤが、ストロークの際、真直ぐ引きやすくする効果がある(アライメント性の向上)。また、中間部材30がより大きくなると、打球時の打音が鈍く響く傾向があり、切り欠き形状があることで、打球時の反響音を抑える効果もある(中間部材の幅が特に10mm程度以上となると打球音が鈍くなる傾向がみられる)。 FIG. 9 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of a putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A putter head 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front member 10, a rear member 20, and an intermediate member 30 interposed therebetween. The intermediate member 30 shown in FIG. 9 has the same width in the front-rear direction as in FIGS. Two approximately oval-shaped notches 53 are formed in the portion. The other configurations are basically the same as those in FIGS. 2, 3, etc., so details will be omitted.

このように、中間部材として同じサイズであっても種々のものを選択することで、ユーザの好みに応じたカスタマイズを行うことができる。また、中間部材の比重を小さくすることで、サイズを大きくしてもヘッド全体の重量増加を抑制できるため、ヘッド全体としてのバランスを維持することができ、かっ比重が大きい部材を前後に配置することで慣性モーメントを大きくすることが可能となる。 In this way, by selecting various intermediate members even if they are of the same size, it is possible to customize the intermediate member according to the user's preference. In addition, by reducing the specific gravity of the intermediate member, it is possible to suppress the increase in the weight of the entire head even if the size is increased, so it is possible to maintain the balance of the entire head, and it is possible to place members with higher specific gravity in the front and rear. This makes it possible to increase the moment of inertia.
