Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides an aiming island to aid in the art of putting on the greens of a golf course. This equipment is intended for use during putting practice, and since the Doug 1 according to this invention has not yet been approved for use in competitions, this
It is constructed so that it can be easily removed from the putter club prior to use in Q4&.For putting techniques, the ball hitting surface of the putter head is placed in the 141 angle of the direction of travel aimed at by the pole. 〈Next, it involves arching the putter head like the head of a pendulum υ, and hitting the pole while maintaining the IG angle rW1 in the awn. In order to help the putter face orient at right angles to the course of the intended hole, it is not common practice to have a aiming scale on the putter head, such as a helix or a chimney, perpendicular to the putter face. It is sanctioned by golf's governing body. The scale can be extended on an auxiliary component fixed to the putter head.

°Is such an aiming scale allowed under most rules of golf?
(It is still considered important to use advanced judgment to create a right angle b'', 1, between the hitting surface of the putter, the clean hole, and the distance between the holes.) This is because the device %i proposed by this invention
By using -, it is possible to obtain an extremely precise accuracy with respect to the line between the putter's hitting surface and the hole on the green.

Very generally, the invention provides an attachment that is mounted on the putter and allows the pole and flagpole standing at the hole to be viewed simultaneously on the green. includes a reflective device that
The face of the club points the pole directly towards the flagpole, or towards the hole where 6-11 may be required, taking into account the type of green to be putted between the pole and the hole. When the pole is to be partially moved in a different direction, it is also moved so that it becomes part of some different object on the green. By becoming a putting aid, the lateral slope on the green to be punted is easily recognized, allowing the golfer to properly navigate the slope when considering the bat stroke. Make it.

Broadly and specifically, the invention relates to a horizontal indicator forming part of a leveling device, including a ball hitting member having a generally flat reflective surface and a generally flat hitting surface. A leveling device is attached to the putting aid device so that the putting aid device is located within a level plane that is approximately parallel to the reference line, and the putting aid device is attached to the putter club so that the hitting surface of the putting aid device rI is approximately parallel to the ball hitting surface. There is provided a putting device which has a mounting arrangement adapted to be mounted on the golf ball, and wherein the reflective surface and the striking surface are in a plane that intersects with a reflective angle therebetween.

A preferred form of the invention will now be described and explained with reference to the drawings.

The putting aid of the invention has /pair of surfaces/, 2 which lie in intersecting planes at a reflection angle of between 127 degrees and 770 degrees, preferably 732 degrees. The face is anti-self, one-sided, and the f911 is like fu6ii steel~
Preferably, it is a precisely polished piece of gold that does not turn into two. Surface 7 may be polished or may have a matte finish similar to the pole impact surface of many commercially available batting clubs. As shown in the drawing, these planes are part of the body of the sheet metal J2 with a bending line 3, hereinafter referred to as the reference line, and the planes occupied by planes / and 2 intersect. It is called reference P- because it is suitable for positioning other parts of the putting aid device.

An elongated tube-shaped level inside the housing fixed to the surface
A front end is provided, which may be mounted anywhere, such as an extension of the striking surface, if useful. The leveling device DA is positioned so that the leveling device 6 is within the leveling plane (horizontal direction), and the Sohini directrix is approximately parallel to the leveling plane.

In the device of FIG. 2, the elongated tube-shaped horizontal gear q is replaced by a circular horizontal gear 7, which is replaced by a putting aid device /! ? When a golfer's cut club is hit, the angle of the surface l of the putting aid device with respect to the vertical plane is determined in the same way as the relationship of the batting gauze with respect to the horizontal. This is very useful for golfers who are trying to hit the ball with the bat by bringing their hands on the putter grip to the n11 force of the ball hitting surface of the club (in the direction of the hole). It will be aid. The result is an acute angle between the ball hitting face of the not ξ hitting club and the face of the green on which the ball is batted.

Hooding affects the roll of the ball on the green and can cause golfers to be concerned about why the golf ball is given a particular path as it travels toward the hole. Footing as a possible cause of poor ball rolling, the proposed circular leveling device? '/ K would easily be able to say ``Ding''. This is because the angular relationship of the ball hitting surface to the vertical plane can be easily adjusted to U4*, allowing the golfer to adjust the angle if necessary.
This is because the condition of the hand can be easily adjusted.

This putting aid device is designed to be attached to a putter club so that surface l is located in front of the ball-striking surface of the putter (see Figure 3, 8J!). There are many different ways to install a putting aid on a putter! 4"
t is possible. In Figure 1, a clamp g is shown. In Figure 9Q, two rows of contacts are also used with two pads of tape. The putting aid device should be installed so that the surface of the putting aid device and the ball hitting surface of the putter are in parallel planes, and the assist device (d
The purpose of this is to hold the putter in place and not to damage the hitting surface of the putter by 4fi.

A preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned invention is Patent G? Modifications may be made within the scope of the invention without departing from the essential features of the invention, which are limited in scope. For example, the auxiliary device can be made in other ways than by folding a single sheet of thin gold to provide the surfaces. The shape of surfaces l and - need not be rectangular, and the leveling device can be attached by gluing, riveting, etc., and there is no need to attach it to a reflective surface.
