In addition, in the case of the golf tee height adjusting device disclosed in Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-0388366, a gear and a time belt are used to implement the up and down motion of the tee and to maintain a stable up and down motion of the platform on which the tee is installed. rods are installed

However, these conventional golf ball automatic tee-up devices transmit a large impact force with a rubber tee for tee-up during the swing of the golf club, and when practicing or playing games for a long time, they damage the internal parts of the tee-up device and destroy the device. There was a problem that a malfunction or defective operation occurred.

In addition, the all-in-one golf ball supply device used in existing outdoor golf driving ranges or indoor golf screens uses a supply motor to transfer golf balls from a place where they are gathered to a rubber tee. There was a problem that the supply motor could not overcome the load and stopped or broke due to frictional resistance due to the different wear conditions of the golf balls.

In order to solve this problem, the present invention implemented a golf ball feeding device integrally with an auto tee-up device.
