Abstract

The present invention relates to a golf swing navigator device for visually informing the golfer of the state of the golf club along the golf swing path—the position and inclination of the shaft and the opening / closing of the club head.

Golf hits a ball that is not moving with the golf club, so if the club swings in the correct state along the swing path, the golfer can blow the golf ball in the desired direction. The present invention visually teaches the golfer the difference between the state of the club according to the golfer's swing path (hereinafter referred to as the present state) and the state of the club according to the golfer's desired swing path (hereinafter referred to as the desired state). It is a device that induces the swing of the desired club state along the desired swing path.

The cross beams 1, 2, 3, and 4 that visually show the current state of the cross light source member 100 that can be connected to and separated from the light source member 200 mounted in the grip 52 of the golf club 50. And a cross light source member 300 that can be connected to and separated from the carrier member 500 that is separably fixed to the shaft 51. Desired state crosses (7) can be placed on the floor, wall and ceiling. Two or more of these marks can be made and placed on the desired swing path to form a cross map. The cross light source members 100, 300 emit two line beams 1, 2 and 3, 4, which are orthogonal to each other 90 degrees and one of the two beams 1, 3 is parallel to the club head face. And the remaining beams 2, 4 are parallel to the actual or virtual ball target line. This cross beam is used to inform the golfer of the state of the golf club along the swing path-the position and inclination of the shaft and the opening / closing of the club head.

  The golf swing navigator can illuminate the current state cross beam on the desired state crosshair map to induce the desired swing to create the golf swing desired by the golfer.

Description

GOLF SWING NAVIGATOR

The present invention can be detachably fixed to the golf club, the golfer practicing the golf swing visually informs the golfer of the state of the real-time golf club along the swing path-the position and inclination of the shaft and the opening / closing of the club head. A golf swing navigator device for cycling. In addition, the golf swing navigator can visually inform the golfer of the difference between the current state and the desired state so that the golfer can swing the golf club according to the desired swing path and club state.

The use of a light source, a beam of light, which can be fixed or detached to a golf club, is well known in the art, which indicates whether the impact face of the club head is square to the target line at the actual or virtual golf ball impact point. It is most commonly employed to visually inform golfers.

One such mechanism is disclosed in the golf swing guide device (Application No. 10-2005-0084589) filed on September 12, 2005 by Oh Hwa Young. This application is a device to guide the swing trajectory by installing a light source at the end of the golf club.

The light source attached here is a point light source that does not convey the golf club's condition-the club's tilt, the club's head open-to the golfer, but ends with indicating the extension of the golf club shaft. Also, the golfer can only see the extension of the golf club shaft when the grip end is towards the ground. Thus, the state of the club during the golf swing is unknown and it is not possible to determine whether the face of the club head is square with the ball at the point of impact.

On November 10, 2005, Chan-Hong Jang and Seung-Tae Jung patented (Registration No. 10-0529413), the golf swing guide device is a device for judging the trajectory of the swing at the moment of the golf swing.

When the light source is installed in the golf club head, it can be installed only in the driver head and cannot be installed in the iron head. Also, the installed driver cannot be used in the actual field. And because the light source is installed in the head, two light sources can not be dropped more than the width of the head, so the angle difference created by the two light sources during swing impact cannot be easily communicated to the golfer.

 On November 17, 2001, Seung-Tae Chung, a utility model (Registration No. 20-0253434) issued to Lee Taek-Hyung, was installed on the lower part of the golf club shaft grip, and the laser beam was directed to the head.

While the device disclosed in the utility model of Seung-Tae Chung and Lee Taek-Hyeong helped determine whether the club face is square with the ball at the impact point, it does not provide the golfer with the information of the club face state other than the impact point.

Moreover, since the impact moment of golf is the result of the previous swing, it does not provide the golfer with information about the cause that caused it.

Golf swing practice apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-0071344 (Applicant GS Company Inc.) uses three point light sources, and two ball light sources in the golf head direction and one point light source in the opposite direction to the head direction. It is a device that visually informs the golfer of the ball and square state at the point of contact with the club, and the plane where the club is located in some sections of the swing.

GS Company Inc's exercise device is a combination of the patent granted to Jang Chan-hong and Jeong Seung-tae and the golf swing guide device filed by Oh Hwa-young. In GS P & C's practice unit, the beam trajectory shown by the beam from the point light source attached to the grip end does not show the swing plane but only the direction of movement of the shaft. This is because there are not one plane but a myriad of planes passing through the line (beam trajectory). The two point light sources in the head also inform the golfer whether the club face is square with the ball at the point of impact, but it is limited to the impact zone and provides the golfer with information about the inclination of the club shaft and the opening / closing of the club before impact. It does not provide information. After all, the golfer does not know the course of the swing, only the result.

It delivers the position and inclination of the shaft in the swing of the golf club and the club head face open / close information to the golfer in real time so as to recognize the difference between the shaft condition and the club head face open / close in the golf swing that the golfer desired. Golf swing navigator device to induce to be.

As described above, Oh Hwa-young, Jang Chan-hong, Jung Seung-tae, Lee Taek-hyung, GS Company Inc. practice device does not provide this type of information.

In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors believe that the shaft according to the desired swing and the light source member which emits a cross beam indicating the position and inclination of the shaft to the golf wood or iron club shaft and the grip end and the club head face open / close. The inventors have invented a crosshair map in which cross marks indicating the position and the slope of the cross section and the club head face are arranged at two or more places along the swing path (ground, wall and ceiling).

The light source member is composed of a first light source member that emits a discernible cross beam in the direction of the club head, and a second light source that emits a discernible cross beam in the direction opposite the club head.

The first light source member and the second light source member are detachably mounted to the first light source member and the second light source member.

홈이 건전지 '-'극 역할을 한다. The light source member is a cylindrical cylinder having an open top surface, each of which is circumferentially spaced apart from the open top surface.

Four grooves in the shape are dug on the side of the cylinder. On the underside of the cylinder there is a spring connected to the battery '-' pole which is the power source.

The groove serves as a battery '-' pole.

홈(건전지 '-'극)과 연결되어 있다. The light source member includes an LED as a light source, a PCB connected to a battery '+' pole mounted on the LED driving and the light source member, three cylinder lenses for converting the beam emitted from the light source into a cross beam, and a light source member surface. '1' shaped clasp, the light source member

Engage and fix the light source member in engagement with the groove, and the connector protruding from the PCB

It is connected to the groove (battery '-' pole).

하단과 밀착하지 못하여 전원이 OFF가 된다.The spring in the light source member pushes the mounted battery to connect the '+' surface and the battery '+' pole in the center of the bottom PCB of the light source member, and pushes the connector protruding from the PCB.

It adheres to the bottom and connects with the battery '-' pole to turn on the power. '1' latch on the top of the light source

Located in the middle of the top, the connector protruding from the PCB

The power is turned off because it is not in close contact with the bottom.

Since the first light source member must be mounted on the shaft, the cylinder into which it is inserted, four connecting legs for adjusting the connection angle when connecting the cylinder with the shaft, four C-shaped sections and C-shaped sections surrounding the shaft, There is a shaft carrier member consisting of rings that secure to the shaft.

 The second light source is mounted in the shaft end grip so that no special carrier member is required.

홈의 변형을 막아주는 역할을 한다.An elastic O-shaped rubber band is mounted on the top and the middle of the light source. The O-shaped rubber band acts as a shock absorber applied to the shaft, secures the light source to the shaft or to the carrier member, and a light source

It prevents the deformation of the groove.

The cross beam required by the present invention can be implemented using a beam splitter (BEAM SPLITTER) that combines two orthogonal ray beams 50 to 50 in one direction, but in this case, a light source energy loss is generated by 50%, and the light source member Due to the increased volume and weight of the vulnerable to swing impact moment impacts, a three-cylinder lens was used to create a cross beam.

The three-cylinder lens configuration creates a line beam where the lens in the middle is parallel to the ground, while the lens above and below creates a line beam perpendicular to the ground.

 One line beam of the cross beam points to the ball's target line across the center of the club head and the other beam points to the center scoreline of the club head face. These two line beams have different line widths, allowing golfers to visually distinguish them.

    Another feature of the present invention is that golfers not only see the trajectory of the cross beams as they swing, but also guide their cross beams along a cross-section map with two or more cross marks according to a desired swing path on the ground, wall or ceiling. I can make a swing.

The crosshair map has two or more crosshairs indicating the state of the golf club along the swing path-shaft position and inclination and opening / closing of the club head with the club and the golfer's body data for the golfer to swing.

Although specific examples have been described for achieving the objects of the present invention, various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

As described above, the golf swing navigator NAVIGATOR of the present invention shows where the golfer's own cross beam deviates from the crosshair map or how it deviates from the crosshairs of the crosshair and the crosshair map. Helps you do it right.

Also, if your cross beam is off the cross map or the cross beam is off the cross mark in the golf swing practice splitting motion, you can move your specific body part to match the cross beam to the cross Find out if the site is wrong.

Specific details for implementing a golf swing navigator, which is a device that emits a cross beam toward a cross-section map representing a desired golf swing, will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The golf swing navigator device shown in FIG. 1 is shown relative to the position of mounting on the shaft 51 and grip 52 of the golf club 50, and the shaft 51 and grip 52 of the golf club 50. ) Are shown in dashed lines.

The swing navigator device of FIG. 1 includes two identical cross beam light source members 100 and 300 and the same light source member 200 and 400 to which they are mounted, respectively. The cross beams 3 and 4 of the cross beam member 300 mounted on the shaft 51 divide the center of the head face crosswise toward the center of the club head, and one line beam 4 of the cross is perpendicular to the head face. .

The cross beams 1 and 2 of the cross beam member 100 mounted in the end of the grip 52 of FIG. 1 are parallel to and parallel to the cross beams 3 and 4.

모양을 한 네 개의 홈(201)이 원통 옆면을 따라 서로 마주 보고 있으며, 이웃하는 홈과 원둘레/4 거리 간격 떨어져 있다.As shown in FIG. 2, the upper surface of the light source members 200 and 400 is opened, and the light source members 100 and 300 enter the space, and the

Four shaped grooves 201 face each other along the side of the cylinder and are spaced apart / circumferentially / 4 apart from neighboring grooves.

Since the minimum diameter of the aperture of the shaft grip 52 to which the light source member 200 is to be mounted (a distance of about 95 mm from the shaft end) is 11.8 mm and the diameter of the battery 8 AAAA to be used is 8.3 mm, the light source member ( 200) The spacing that can be used in combination with both the cylindrical wall thickness and the device thickness for fixing the light source member to the shaft grip 52 is only 3.5 mm.

In the method of mounting the light source member 100 to the light source member 200 using a general screw groove, the cross beam does not diverge in a desired direction when the light source member 200 and the light source member 100 are firmly fixed. The direction of divergence could be different each time, so no hiring was done. In this case, there is also an inconvenience in that the power ON / OFF switch must be separately installed in the light source member.

Next, referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, a method of simultaneously connecting and fixing a light source member to a light source collecting member and simultaneously turning on / off a power source will be described.

The method employed in the present invention can be connected to the power source, the ON / OFF switch, the light source collection (200, 400) mounting and the cross beam 90 degree direction using the light source member 200, the outer wall 210 groove 201. It was made.

The power used for the LED 118 of the light source member 100 is two AAAA batteries, and the '-' pole is connected to the bottom spring 205 of the light source member 300.

 The inserted two AAAA batteries 8 are forced out of the light source member 200 by a spring 205. When the clasp 115 protruding from the light source member 100 is directed toward the groove 201, and then the light source member 100 is pushed against the battery 8, the light source member 100 connector 116 and the clasp ( 115 slides into groove 201. At this time, when the connector 116 touches the groove bottom 204, the light source member is turned clockwise 220 slightly, and then the light source member 100 is released, and the latch 115 is held in the groove 202 by the force of the spring 205. Is fixed.

At this time, the connector 116 connected to the PCB reaches the ceiling of the groove 204 by the force of the spring 205, '-' power is connected to the PCB.

To turn off the power, while pushing the light source member 100 slightly, turn the counterclockwise direction 221 so that the latch 115 contacts the ceiling of the groove wall 203. At this time, the connector 116 connected to the PCB is floating in the middle of the groove 204 in a state where the contact with the light source member 300 is broken, so that the power is turned off.

The above-mentioned method proceeds simultaneously in the four grooves 201 and operates on the same principle even when the light source member 300 is inserted into the light source member 400 mounted to the shaft light source carrier 500 member.

Rubber-shaped O-rings 208 and 209 are placed in two places of the light source member 200 to mount the light source member 200 into the shaft grip 52. This rubber O-ring makes the jaw slightly raised around the O-ring to prevent the O-ring from moving out of position when the light source member is placed into the shaft.

홈(201) 중간을 가로지르게 하여, O-링(208)이

홈(201)이 외부 힘에 의해 변형되는 것을 막아주도록 한다.Also, the position of the top o-ring 208 is

By intersecting the middle of the groove 201, the O-ring 208

The groove 201 is prevented from being deformed by an external force.

In order to mount the light source member 400 to the shaft 51, the light source carrier member 500 shown in FIG. 4 is provided, which can be detachably fixed to the bottom of the shaft grip 52 and the shaft 51. Should be It is also preferred that there is an adjusting device such that the cross beams 3 and 4 emitted from the mounted light source member 300 can point to the center of the club head.

The carrier member 500 is provided with four clamping elements 505 for detachably fixing the carrier member 500 to the shaft 51, as shown in FIG. 4. There are four legs 503 connecting the circular light source element 501. The leg 503 has a rotary pin 502 at both ends of the leg 505 to adjust the cross beams 3 and 4 emitted from the light source member to point to the center of the club head.

The cross beams 1 and 2 of the present invention shown in FIG. 5 are made using three cylinder lenses 111, 112 and 113 having the same focal length FOCAL LENGTH. The beam 2 parallel to the XY plane is produced by the intermediate cylinder lens 112 and the beam width 124 is determined by the cylinder lens width 122. The beam 1 parallel to the YZ plane is produced by the upper and lower cylinder lenses 111 and 113 and the beam width 125 is determined by the cylinder lens width 120. In this case, the angle at which the cross beams (1, 2) diverge is determined by the LED view angles (FIG. 3, 110) of the light source member 100. When the upper and lower cylinder lens lengths 121 and 123 plus the intermediate cylinder lens width 122 are the same as the upper and lower cylinder widths 120, the light source members 100 and 300 are viewed in front and become rectangular.

The method of analyzing the shape of the cross beams 5 and 6 which the light source member 100 in the end of the grip 52 made in the ground XY plane is demonstrated through FIG. Of the two line beams 5 and 6 constituting the cross beam, the thick line beam 5 is parallel to the club head face 54, and the relatively thin line beam 6 is perpendicular to the head face 54. To achieve.

When the club shaft is in the XYZ three-dimensional space as shown in FIG. 6, the angle 15 formed by the shaft 51 and the Y axis is alpha (α), and the angle 16 formed by the shaft 51 and the X axis is beta (β). The height 17 is referred to as h from the plane XY plane to the grip 52 end light source member 100. And the divergence angle (FIG. 3, 110) of a light source member is called zeta ((theta)).

The center 10 of the cross beam in the plane XY plane shown in FIG. 6 is as much as the X axis distance 18, h * tan (90-β), and by -Y axis distance 19, h * tan (90-α). Away from the light source member 100.

The length of the lime beam 13 shown in FIG. 6 is h * {tan (90-β)-tan (90-β-θ)}, and the length of the line beam 14 is h * {tan (90-β) tan (90-β + θ)} and the length of the lime beam 11 is h * {tan (90-α) − tan (90-α-θ)}, and the length of the line beam 12 is h * { tan (90-α)-tan (90-α + θ)}.

For example, the length of the lime beam 13 when the height h (17) = 1200mm, α (15) = 60 degrees, β (16) = 55 degrees of the light source member 100 is at the divergence angle θ = 8 degrees. Is 20.8 mm, beam 14 is 24.5 mm long, beam 11 is 22.8 mm long, and beam 12 is 27.9 mm long. That is, the difference between the short length and the long length is 20%. And as the divergence angle 110 of the light source member increases, the difference between short length and long length becomes larger according to the above formula.

FIG. 7 shows the golfer down on the first cross mark (7a, 8a) and the second cross mark (7b, 8b) marked with dotted lines on the ground, taking into account the tilt of the shaft and the opening / closing of the club according to the desired swing path. The cross beams that are generated continuously during the swing are shown as two cross beams 5a, 6a, 5b, and 6b.

7 shows that the first downswing plane slope is as good as the desired downswing plane slope, but it is wrong for the hand to go forward. The reason for the same slope is that the positions of the centers 10a and 10b of the line beams 5a and 5b are all relatively the same as the center positions 20a and 20b of the desired line beams 7a and 7b. This is because (10a, 10b) went out ahead of the desired line 21.

The second shown in FIG. 7 is that the club head is more open than desired. The reason is that the line beams 5a and 5b are twisted to the right of the cross marks 7a and 7b so that the line beams 6a and 6b point to the right of the desired line (the direction in which the ball is to be blown).

The third shown in Figure 7 shows that the golfer's wrist bending (cocking) loosened faster than desired. This is because the line beams 6a and 6b are tilted more to the right when viewed from the center points 10a and 10b.

8 is a view in which a golf swing navigator is attached to the XY plane and the wall XZ plane by attaching a cross mark 7 indicating a desired shaft inclination and club head opening / closing according to a desired swing trajectory. At this time, it is desirable to make a cross beam display attached to each plane in consideration of the golfer's physique and the characteristics of the club. Although only the cross beam of the cross beam light source member 300 mounted on the shaft is illustrated in FIG. 8, the cross beam of the grip end cross beam light source member 100 appearing in the ground XY plane when the golf swing navigator is actually used is omitted.

As mentioned above, the golf swing navigator visualizes the golfer whether the shaft and club face are navigating along the desired route (cross map) at various points during the swing, as if the ship was sailing along a designated course at sea. This is a device that can check the golfer posture to check.
