Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a hitting tool suitable for croquet golf, etc., which is a combination of croquet, golf, and billiards.

Kurotsuke golf is based on the rules of golf, where multiple gates are planted in a field with uneven surfaces, bunkers, or shrubbery, and the ball is hit with a hitting tool called a Murray, passing through the designated gates one after another. It is designed to hit a ball with a pin. Here, instead of preparing and using many types of Malays used in black skate golf, the game is played using a single Malay.

However, the field on which the competition is played has many variations, such as unevenness, and the distance between gates is not constant. Therefore, one Murray must be used for each occasion, such as when hitting a ball far, when delivering the ball to an accurate position even if it is close, or when releasing the ball from a bunker, etc.

For this reason, in the conventional Murray ball, a ball hitting surface is formed in the head portion at the tip of the shaft in accordance with the purpose.

However, even if various types of ball-hitting surfaces are formed on one head, conventional ones may not be optimal in terms of the elasticity of the ball-hitting surface, the balance between the size and weight of the head, and the weight balance before and after the head. Moreover, since most of the heads are made of wood, there are also problems in terms of durability and safety.

The present invention was developed to improve the problems of the conventional batting tools mentioned above, and its purpose is to have the head, which is the ball hitting part, have an appropriate weight, and to improve elasticity and overall weight balance. To provide a batting tool for batting competitions that is excellent in durability and safety and also provides a good feel when hitting the ball.

In order to achieve this purpose, the hitting tool according to the present invention is
A head formed by aluminum die-casting is attached to the tip of the shaft, and the shape of the head body is approximately a rectangular parallelepiped with a hollowed out shape.A tail portion is provided at the rear of the body, and the front end face, both sides, and tail of the body are provided with a tail part at the rear of the body. The gist is that the inclined surface on the upper surface of the ball is used as a ball-hitting surface, and that the entire head is covered with elastic plastic.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is an overall perspective view of a mallet, which is a hitting tool according to the present invention.The mallet 1 has a head 3 made of aluminum die-cast molding attached to the tip of a shaft 2 made of a wooden or metal pipe, and this head 3 is made of elastic plastic. It is covered by 4.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the head 3 has a shape that extends back and forth approximately centered on the mounting portion 5 of the shaft 2, and the main body is shaped like a box that is hollowed out in the vertical direction of a rectangular parallelepiped. , its front end surface 6
Both side surfaces 7, 7 are planes parallel to the axis of the shaft 2, and the front end surface 6 and the side surface 7 are at right angles. Further, the rear half of the head 3 has a tail portion 8 having a backward downward shape, which balances the weight and has an inclined plane 9 on its upper surface.

Further, a stay 3a is formed in the length direction at the lower part of the hollowed out portion of the front half of the head 3 for reinforcement.

The hollow portion and the entire surface of the head 3 having the structure described above are filled and coated with elastic plastic 4, and the front end surface 6, side surface 7 and inclined plane 9 covered with the elastic plastic 4 are used as ball hitting surfaces. In other words, when hitting the ball far, the front end surface 6
The side surface 7 is used when the ball is to be hit at close range and accuracy in direction is required, and the inclined plane 9 is used to hit the ball out of a bunker or over shrubbery.

Next, an example of a method for playing black and white golf using the Murray 1 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

First, randomly place gate 11 in field 10...
to be planted. A gate number 12 is displayed on this gate 11, and two anchor pins 13, 13 are inserted into the field 10 through mark balls 14, 14, and the mark ball 1 is inserted into the field 10.
4 and 14 are fixed. Further, a start pin 15 and a center pin 16 are implanted at predetermined positions in the field 10.

In this way, the ball 17 is hit from near the start pin 15 toward the No. 1 gate 11a. At this time, the ball hitting surface of the head 3 of Murray 1 is selected depending on the distance between the gate 11a and the ball 17, etc. If the hit ball 17 passes through the first gate 11a or hits the marked ball 14a, then
Hit the ball 17 toward the number gate 11b. After passing through the final gate in this manner, the ball 17 is finally hit on the center pin 16, the number of balls hit so far is recorded, and one hole is completed. Thereafter, the same game as above is played up to, for example, nine holes, and the player who hits the fewest balls wins.

Note that the above is just an example of the rules of the game, and the rules are not limited to these and can be arbitrarily determined. In addition, in the embodiment, the hitting tool for ball hitting competitions according to the present invention was applied as a malay for black skate golf, but it is of course not limited to this and can be used for various ball hitting competitions.

As explained above, according to the present invention, in a hitting tool having a head attached to the tip of the shaft, the head is made of aluminum die-casting, and the entire surface of the head is covered with elastic plastic. Therefore, the aluminum head acts as a core material, making it possible to obtain a product with excellent durability and elasticity.In addition, the shape of the head body is a rectangular parallelepiped with a hollow interior, and the front end surface and both sides are is used as the ball hitting surface, and a tail portion is provided at the rear of the head body, and the upper surface of this tail portion is an inclined surface, so it is possible to hit the ball differently depending on the distance, etc. Moreover, the ball hitting surface is covered with elastic plastic. Because you are with yourself, you can feel the ball when it hits the ball, such as the sound of the ball, and it is also very safe. If the aluminum head is made into a hollow shape, it will be possible to reduce the weight and provide a good weight balance, among other effects.
