Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a golf course facility having a predetermined number of greens and launch points located at different distances from each other from the green, particularly within a grassy field.

Conventional tLua facilities have very large land requirements. This is because the greens, each with at least one hole, are widely distributed throughout the site.In order to reduce the required site, different concepts of compact golf facilities have already been proposed. The idea is to at least allow golf-like play over a relatively small area.

US Pat. No. 3,892,413 describes a compact golf facility comprising a green and launch segments or launch points arranged alternately and circumferentially spaced around the periphery of a circular surface. ing. In such known compact golf facilities, the ball is shot either directly from different launch points onto the individual greens or first to the inner portion of the circular surface and from there onto the green.

The known compact golf facility allows play similar to Delua, but what about simultaneous play by multiple Lua players? Are lure players interfering with each other and creating a hazard or in a traditional golf facility? It must be mutually taken into account that it is not possible to perform a free sillage comparable to Ruasolet.

Furthermore, US Pat. No. 5,904,209 also describes a compact golf facility which is essentially the same, and which has a launch point located along the longitudinal edge of an approximately rectangular site. The ball is then shot from the launch point first to the position of the opposing longitudinal edge portion, and then from this position backward to a green/green located between or behind the launch points.

When multiple players play at the same time in such a compact golf facility, the balls must be crossed and hit, making it impossible for nine players to interfere with each other or risk the traditional It is not possible to develop a play that can be compared to Shire at the female lure field.

In the compact golf facility known from No. 11i:P-A-022°1885, a plurality of greens are arranged spaced apart from each other in the center of the field and the launch points are advantageously elevated in the form of an embankment. are located around the area.

The object of the invention is to improve a compact golf facility of the type mentioned at the outset, in such a way that simultaneous play by a large number of players is possible without mutually problematic interference and in particular without mutual harm. It is to do so.

In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a configuration in which a green, each with at least one hole, is arranged around a launch area consisting of adjacent launch sections, each with at least one launch point, and where the launch point is They are spaced apart from one another along the perimeter of the launch area, with each launch section being associated with at least one green.

A feature of the invention is that a launch zone is provided in the center of the site with adjacent launch sections, and the launch sections are arranged at different distances around the perimeter of the launch section from the launch sections of the central launch section. Play is made to grouped greens. Therefore,
The ball is always thrown outward from the starting point located in the center of the field. After the ball is shot from one launch segment towards its own green, when a player follows the ball to hole the pole from which it was shot, another player from another launch segment towards another belonging to the green. A player who can shoot the ball and attempts to hole the ball will not interfere with another player's play or be harmed by another player's shot ball.

Thus, the compact golfer facility according to the present invention allows multiple players to play simultaneously without interfering with or harming each other.

It is particularly advantageous if there are the same number of greens and launch sections, and each launch section is arranged to belong to a green.

In a female lure facility configured in this way, the first player shoots a ball from the first launch section onto the green that belongs to this first launch section, and after the shot ball enters the hole, Move to the adjacent launch area and continue play. The first launch segment previously shot by the first player is now available for play by the second player along with its associated green. In this manner, each player successively takes shots from the individual launch sections to his/her own green in a regular sequence.

In another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the at least one launch section is surrounded by two lateral rails, the rails being spaced apart from each other and from the launch area to allow an unobstructed shot of the ball. Extending outwardly beyond the embossing section. Such a fence prevents the ball from being shot in an undesired direction, and the risk of interference or harm to other players is particularly effectively reduced.

Advantageously in this case, the height of the rails extending on both sides of the embossing section increases towards the outside from the embossing area.

The fence is a stretched net.

In another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the fence limits a sillage zone that opens outwards from the launch section and exclusively covers the green belonging to the launch section, so that missed shots can cause the trajectory to be played. A ball that attempts to go outside the zone will be stopped by the fence.

The launch area located in the center of the site may be configured in any shape. Preferably, the ejecting section of the ejecting area is arranged on a closed curved track, such as a circular ring, an elliptical track or the like. Furthermore, as an option, the embossing sections are arranged at the corners of the polygon or at straight sections connecting the vertices of the polygon.

In a further embodiment of the invention, auxiliary devices such as sanitary devices, showers, changing rooms, checkout stands and the like are arranged in the area surrounded by the embossing section.

Advantageously, the area surrounded by the embossing section is provided with a roof that also covers the embossing section.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described using the drawings.

The compact Gorua facility 20 shown in Figure 1 has approximately 120
mX18077! It is located on a rectangular site. Approximately at the intersection of the diagonals, ie in the center of the site, a circular ring-shaped launch area 22 is arranged, which has launch sections 1 to 18 distributed over its circumference.

Emboss a circular ring-shaped embossing area 22 Sections 1 to 1
The division into 8 is shown in FIG. Around the launch area 22 and at different distances from the individual launch sections 1-1B, greens 1'-18' each with one hole 1"-1"' are arranged. In each launch section: Also, one green is assigned to each launch section in the radial direction.On the one hand, between the individual greens, and on the other hand, between the green and the launch area 22, as is generally the case in a male lure field. Bunkers, ponds or similar objects are placed.

The illustrated compact pull-a facility 20 is a facility with 18 holes. Up to 18 players can play at the same time at this Gorua facility.

Play is started, for example, by shooting a ball from launch section 1 onto the green 1' belonging to this launch section. After hitting the ball in the direction of the green 1', the player is launched and approaches the ball in or near the green 1', and holes the ball into the hole r in the green 1'. After holing the ball, the player returns to the launch area 22 and shoots the next ball from the launch section 2 in the direction of the green 2 to which it belongs.

After having holed this ball into the hole τ on green r, the player returns to the launching area and hits the next ball from section 3 toward the green 3' to which it belongs. This process is repeated until the player has shot the ball from all launch sections 1-18 of the male lure facility and played on all greens 1'-18:'.

While the first player holes/hits the ball launched from launch segment 1 and then shoots the next ball from launch segment 2, the second player can simultaneously start play on launch segment 1 and hit the ball from launch segment 1. Similar to the player, the player can shill on all the greens sequentially in nine clockwise directions in the order of the number of launch sections.

There are 18 launch sections and 18 corresponding greens at different distances from each affiliated launch section, with one or two launch sections as a buffer zone between two consecutive players in the circumferential direction. It is advantageous to keep the greens open, thereby avoiding mutual interference between players due to different times required to hole in the green.

In the embodiment of FIG. 3, a launch point 24 of the launch section 4.5 is located near the inner limit of the launch area 22.

5'-facing end. Fence 26, 26
'or 27, 27' ensures that the ball is always launched from the launch section only in the direction of its own green.

In the drive center shown in FIG. 5, the launch area 30 has nine launch segments 31-39, each launch segment being arranged around a generally regular nonagonal shape. One launch section is provided with an inlet 40 into an inner area surrounded by an adjacent launch section, which area is equipped with auxiliary equipment of the Delua facility. Adjacent to the back of another embossing section is a register 41.
With the reeds placed, almost half of the inner area is occupied by the toilet 42
