CONSTITUTION:The golf tee consisting of a tee member having a golf ball placing part in the top part and a tee member holding implement provided in the center, with a tee member holding cylinder having a hole for holding the tee member so as to be freely slidable, and a golf training mat provided with the golf tee are provided.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a golf tee and a golf practice mat used when hitting a golf ball with a golf club.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a golf practice mat has been used to practice hitting a golf ball with a golf club.
A tee on which a golf ball is placed is inserted into the mat for golf practice from the hole of the mat and attached. However, all of these mats have fixed tee heights, which is good if the height is just convenient for the practitioner, but if it is too high or too low,
I had to replace the tee with the desired height, or another tee with a different height fixed to another golf practice mat. Moreover, there are only three types of high and low, and in many practice areas there is only one type.
Therefore, there is a demand for a golf tee capable of easily adjusting the height with one tee.

[0003]

[Object] It is an object of the present invention to provide a golf tee and a golf practice mat using the golf tee, in which the height of the golf tee can be adjusted extremely easily.

[0004]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tee member holder having a tee member having a golf ball mounting portion on its top and a tee member holding cylinder having a hole for slidably holding the tee member. The present invention relates to a golf tee. A second aspect of the present invention relates to a golf practice mat provided with the golf tee. By providing an outwardly extending locking projection on the lower portion of the tee member, it is possible to prevent the tee member from slipping out of the hole of the holding cylinder, and to adjust the vertical height of the tee member. It's easy.

Examples of the material of the tee member and the tee member holder in the present invention include various rubber materials and elastic bodies such as synthetic resin having flexibility, preferably rubber hardness Hs 40 to 70, and particularly preferably rubber hardness. An elastic body around Hs60 can be mentioned. The materials of the tee member and the tee member holder may be the same or different. In the case of different materials, the hardness of the tee member may be selected to be higher than the hardness of the tee member holder. Also,
The cross-sectional shape of the tee member and the tee member holder may be any of a triangle, a quadrangle, a polygon such as a pentagon, and a hexagon, a circle, an ellipse, etc., but preferably a circle, and what is important is to be slidable. It is to make the cross-sectional shape. Further, the thickness of the tee member and the size of the inner diameter of the holding cylinder are set in consideration of the rubber hardness, the wall thickness of the holding cylinder, and the like.
The thickness of the tee member is the same as or slightly larger than the inner diameter of the holding cylinder so that a so-called fitting margin is provided, and when the golf ball is hit, the height of the tee member is displaced, It's a good idea not to get out.
Further, even when the tee member has the locking protrusion on the lower portion thereof, the relationship between the thickness of the protrusion and the holding cylinder may be set as described above. For example, rubber hardness is Hs60
If the inner diameter of the holding cylinder is 12 mm and the outer diameter of the locking protrusion is (12 + 0.3) mm to (12 + 0.
7) mm, preferably (12 + 0.5) mm. In either case, the height of the tee member can be adjusted by allowing the tee member to move up and down by hand, and the tee member is held in such a relationship that the tee member has a resistance that does not displace the position of the tee member.

The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the golf tee of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the golf tee shown in FIG. 1 installed on a golf practice mat. The golf tee 1 has a tee member holder 6 having a tee member 3 having a golf ball mounting portion 2 on the top thereof and a tee member holding cylinder 5 having a hole 4 for slidably holding the tee member 3.
The tee member 3 has a tee member holding hole 4 of a tee member holding tube 5 provided at the center of the tee member holder 6.
It is slidably fitted in. The tee member 3 and the tee member holder 6 are fitted into the holding hole 4 by fitting.
Since it is flexible, it can be done by hand. A golf tee 1 in which a tee member 3 is slidably fitted in a tee member holding hole 4 of a tee member holder 6 is used for golf practice, which comprises a base material 8 of a golf mat and an artificial turf 9 made of synthetic resin such as nylon. It is fitted into the hole 10 for the tee member holder provided in the mat and is fixed by an appropriate fixing means. The fine adjustment of the height of the golf tee 1 is performed by manually pulling up or pushing down the tee member 3. In this case, the tee member 3 has a scale 7
It is good to attach. Further, the tee member 3 slidably fitted in the tee member holding hole 4 of the tee member holder 6.
So as not to be pulled out by impact, a locking projection 11 is provided on the lower part of the tee member 3 and further extends inward on the upper part of the tee member holding cylinder 5 if necessary. It is preferable to provide the protrusion 12. The fitting in this case can be easily performed because the tee member 3 and the tee member holder 6 are flexible. Other known locking means may be used as the pull-out preventing means.

[0007]

[Effect] The golf tee of the present invention and the golf practice mat provided with the golf tee are slidable in the hole of the tee member holding cylinder provided at the center of the tee member holder with the tee member having the golf ball mounting portion on the top. Since it is set, fine adjustment of height can be performed with an extremely simple operation.
