JPH04364870A - Grip mounting type balance weight - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To adjust swing balance without damaging the characteristic performance of a club by molding a balance weight of metal, synthetic resin, etc., attaching the balance weight to the uppermost end hole of a golf grip and preventing the balance weight from coming off by thickening somewhat the upper portion of a part thereof received in the grip. CONSTITUTION:Balance weights 1, 2 are mounted to a grip part without come- off even in use by forcing the thick part of a shaft 4 into a grip 3 until it is received in the grip 3. When a player grips the club to which the balance weights 1, 2, are attached he can get a feeling lighter than that of conventional clubs. Further, he can feel the smooth stream-like touch from the start to the end of swing, and the club very easy to grip for powerless men, women, aged persons, etc., is provided. Also, metal, synthetic resin, rubber, wood, porcelain, clay, etc., can be utilized for molding materials to have effects respectively corresponding to the weight.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

0001

[Field of Industrial Application] This invention relates to a balance weight that is attached to the grip of a golf club.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when adjusting the swing balance of a golf club (how light or heavy it feels when swung), weights have been attached to the bed. However, with this method, it was possible to make the swing weight heavier, but it was not possible to make it lighter. If you wanted to make it lighter, you had to grind it down with a grinder or drill a hole, which was difficult for the average person to do. Adjusting the weight of the head in this way changes the position of the head's center of gravity, affects the frequency and stiffness of the shaft, and tends to change the performance of the club itself.

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention, excluding the drawbacks, is capable of adjusting the swing balance without impairing the inherent performance of the club, and also improves the stability of the swing and control shots (hitting by adding or subtracting force). ) is also aimed at increasing the accuracy of the results.

0004

[Means for Solving the Problems] Metal, synthetic resin, or the like is molded into the shape shown in FIG. 1, and the golf grip is mounted using a hole in the top end of the golf grip. The top part of the part that fits inside the grip is made slightly thicker to prevent it from falling off.

[0005]

[Operation] It is very easy to attach to the grip part. If you push it until the thick part of the shaft fits inside the grip, it will not fall out during use. When you swing a club with this balance weight attached in this way, it feels lighter than the original club. Moreover, it has a smooth feel that flows from the start to the end of the swing, making it an extremely easy club to swing for people with limited strength, women, and the elderly.

[0006]

[Embodiment] In carrying out the present invention, the following materials can be used, and effects depending on the weight of each material can be obtained. 1. Metal 2. Synthetic resin 3. Rubber 4. Tree 5. Porcelain6. This clay balance weight can be used not only for golf clubs but also for baseball bats, hockey and gateball sticks, rackets for table tennis, tennis, badminton, etc., ski poles, fishing rods, etc. Moreover, the shape of the upper part (1) in FIG. 1 can be designed in various ways according to preference.

[0007]

[Effects of the Invention] By using this balance weight, the following effects can be obtained. 1. Lighten the swing balance without changing the performance of the head or shaft. 2. The trajectory of the head during the swing is less likely to shake, making the swing more stable. 3. This makes it easier for people with weak wrists to hit controlled shots. 4. A variety of weights are available depending on the material and size, so you can make fine adjustments to suit your preferences. 5. Because the impact force applied to the ball increases, the flight distance increases.
