POSITION DETECTOR FOR CORRECTING PUTTING MOTION OF GOLF PUTTER}

The present invention relates to a golf putter, and more particularly, to a golf putter having an address position detector that allows the golfer to correct the putting motion accurately.

The golf putter is a tool used to insert the ball into the hole cup, which is a very important golf club used to insert the ball into the hole cup. Therefore, the golf putter requires a very precise movement when putting it differently from the drive club or the iron club.

The putting action using the golf putter leads to the address → back swing → stroke. In this address operation, the head of the putter is aligned horizontally behind the ball. In the back swing, the head is moved backwards with respect to the ball while maintaining the address operation. After the completion of the backswing, the head is advanced and stroked along the path of the backswing.

Aligning the head of the putter horizontally in the addressing operation during the putting operation and moving the head in a straight line without moving the head inside or outside the body in the backswing is an important factor for correcting the stroke operation, which is the final step of the putting operation. to be.

By the way, the conventional golf putter does not have the consideration that can be corrected correctly while checking the address and backswing posture easily in the putting action, so golfers only have to learn the correct putting action by the sense of practice for a long time, but they are not good at putting action. I was able to.

In order to solve the above problems, a golf putter has been developed that detects and displays the horizontal position of the head when addressing and putting the golf putter. For example, there is a Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-031426 (Putter for golf for correction of putting operation).

The golf putter disclosed in the registered prior art has a configuration in which a detector for detecting a horizontal position of the head is coupled to a putter head coupled to a golf grip having a battery and a switch for switching the power of the battery. Have The detector is filled with a fluid, such as mercury, filled in a round portion of a horseshoe, and at least one contact (switch) shorted in accordance with the position of movement of mercury filled in the round portion according to the position of the putter head and a short circuit of the contact. It consists of at least one light emitting element which is turned on. In this case, the coupling between the detector and the putter head is configured to screw the coupling between the putter head and the detector after the coupling pin connected to the detector is inserted into the socket formed on the putter head.

However, the utility model registration No. 20-031426 can be used only in the golf putter dedicated for address and putting motion correction, there is a problem that can not be used for general purpose golf putter. In addition, the configuration for detecting the position of mercury moved in the horseshoe-shaped round part in accordance with the horizontal tilt of the putter head is low in the efficiency of horizontal position detection by using a plurality of contacts. That is, when mercury touches the two contacts, the corresponding light emitting element is driven so that the light emitting element is turned on only when the inclination of the putter head is completely tilted. The production was inconvenient by using mercury and two contacts of concern.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a position detector for correcting a putting operation of a golf putter that can be combined with a general purpose golf putter to correct an address and a putting operation.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a structure of a golf putter that allows the golfer to correct the putting motion correctly so that the golfer can quickly and accurately recognize the position of the putter head at the address and the backswing during the putting operation.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a structure of a golf putter horizontal position detector that can be easily coupled to a general golf putter head and can quickly detect a change in the horizontal position of the putter head.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a position detector for putting motion correction of a golf putter, the fluid passage being made of a transparent material in which a fluid is changed in position according to the horizontal inclination and a specific shape on the fluid passage. A sensing module installed between the positions and having at least two flow liquid position sensors for generating a detection signal when the flow liquid is close to the position; A display module coupled to the sensing module having a plurality of light emitting elements that are lit in response to the output of the fluid position sensor and having an elastic connecting leg that is elastically coupled to the upper portion of the golf putter head (fit) It is characterized by consisting of.

As the fluid pipe, it is preferable to use a synthetic resin made of a transparent material, and the fluid may be a material capable of blocking light, such as black, and a fluid having good cohesive force.

The fluid position sensors may include a photocoupler including a light emitting diode that is turned on by a battery voltage supplied through a switch installed in the sensing module, and a phototransistor that generates a position sensing signal in response to the blocking of light emitted from the light emitting diode ( photo coupler, and the fluid line is positioned between the light emitting diode and the phototransistor.

The plurality of light emitting devices are red, blue, and green light emitting devices respectively connected to output nodes of the phototransistor, and are turned on in response to the position detection signal.

It is a block diagram.

1 and 2, the sensing module 12 of the position detector 10 for correcting the putting motion of a golf putter has a cylindrical shape and has a fluid inside thereof whose position is changed in accordance with the inclination of the horizontal direction. At least two or more is installed between the fluid line 14 of the transparent material having a horseshoe shape and a specific position on the fluid line 14 and generates a detection signal when the fluid is close to the position The fluid position sensors 18a and 18b, 20a and 20b and 22a and 22b are provided.

The fluid passage 14 is a synthetic resin of a transparent material, the fluid 16 is black to block light and uses oil having excellent cohesion. Each of the fluid position sensors 18a, 18b, 20a, 20b and 22a, 22b is lighted by a battery voltage supplied through a switch SW as shown in FIG. 2. A photo coupler composed of 20a, 22a and phototransistors 18b, 20b, 22b for generating a position sensing signal in response to the blocking of light emitted from the light emitting diodes 18a, 20a, 22a. ) And the fluid line 14 is located between the light emitting diodes 18a, 20a, 22a and the phototransistors 18b, 20b, 22b.

In Fig. 2, the resistors R connected between the power supply voltage and the anode of each of the light emitting diodes 18a, 20a and 22a and between the power supply voltage and the collector of the respective phototransistors 18b, 20b and 22b are suitable as bias resistors. It is preferably set to a value. In addition, a space in which a small battery having a circular shape is provided is provided at a lower side inside the sensing module 12, and the voltage of the small battery is connected to be supplied to the photocouplers through a switch SW.

The display module 24 is coupled to the upper side of the sensing module 12. The display module 24 includes a plurality of light emitting elements 28, 30, and 26, each having an anode connected to the collectors of the phototransistors 18b, 20b, and 22b, and extending to a lower side by a predetermined length. 32 is formed in both sides. The elastic coupler 32 is elastically coupled to the upper portion of the golf putter head (not shown) to be described later. The plurality of light emitting elements 28, 30, and 26 are red, blue, and green light emitting elements, which are turned on or off depending on the potential level of the output node of the phototransistors 18b, 20b, and 22b, that is, a switching state. .

In the configuration as described above, the fluid line 14 is formed with a straight portion, the upper and lower rounded arcs are formed to extend both ends of the straight portion toward the display module 24, the body of the sensing module 12 It is laid horizontally.

When the switch SW of the position detector 10 for correcting the putting motion of the golf putter configured as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is "on", all of the light emitting diodes 18a, 20a, and 22a are turned on to emit light. In this state, when the sensing module 12 maintains the horizontal state, the fluid 16 filled in the fluid line 14 is positioned in the section of the straight portion. Therefore, only the phototransistor 18b of the phototransistors 18b, 20b, 22b is " turned off " so that only the light emitting element 28 in the display module 24 connected to its collector is lit to display a horizontal state.

If the horizontal state of the sensing module 12 is disturbed and the balance is broken, the fluid 16 in the fluid line 14 is moved to the upper or lower side of the fluid line 14. Therefore, the phototransistors 20b or 22b installed at the corresponding positions are "turned off" so that the light emitting elements 30 or 26 connected to the collectors of the phototransistors 20b or 22b are turned on.

3 and 4 attaching an example of correcting the addressing and putting operation by coupling the position detector 10 for correcting the addressing and putting operation of the golf putter configured as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 to the putter head of a general golf putter. It will be described below with reference to.

3 is a perspective view illustrating a putting motion correction position detector according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention coupled to a golf putter, and FIG. 4 is a plan view of the putting motion correction position detector coupled to a golf putter according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. This figure is shown.

When the space between the elastic coupler 32 and the sensing module 12 extended to the lower portion of the display module 24 configured as shown in FIG. 1 is inserted into the upper end of the head 42 of the golf putter 40 as shown in FIG. The elastic force of the elastic coupler 32 is coupled between the position detector 10 and the golf putter 40 for correcting the address and putting motion.

As described above, the operation of correcting the address and putting operation in the state in which the coupling between the address detector and the golf putter 40 is corrected is as follows.

When the head 42 of the putter is horizontal in the address posture of the putting operation or the head 42 of the putter moves linearly in the backswing process, the fluid 16 is located in the straight section of the fluid line 14. Since the state is maintained, only the phototransistor 18b is turned off so that the light emitting element 28 positioned in the center of the display module 24 is turned on. When the golf putter 40 receives the centrifugal force during the backswing in the above state, the fluid 16 is divided into the end portions of the upper and lower round sections of the fluid line 14 so that the corresponding phototransistors 20b, 22b) is turned off to turn off the light emitting devices 30 and 26 corresponding thereto.

Therefore, when the light emitting device 28 is turned on or the light emitting devices 26 and 30 are turned off, the normal putting operation is performed. If the light emitting device 28 flickers during address posture or backswing, this implies that the head 42 is trembling because the grip is too forceful and the light is not flickered. It is important to maintain.

When the back of the putter head 42 is lifted in the address position or the head 42 of the putter is moved into the golfer's body during the backswing, the fluid 16 causes the centrifugal force to move out of the body. In the case of receiving the liquid, the liquid 16 moves to the upper round part, so that the phototransistor 22b of the photocouplers 22a and 22b shown in FIG. 2 is turned off so that the light emitting device 26 is turned on.

When the toe of the putter head 42 is lifted in the address posture or when the head 42 of the putter moves out of the golfer's body during the back swing, the fluid 16 receives the centrifugal force into the body. As the liquid solution 16 moves to the lower round part, the light emitting element 30 is turned on by turning off the phototransistors 20b of the photocouplers 20a and 20b shown in FIG. 2.

Therefore, the golfer is in the lighting state of the light emitting elements 26, 28, 30 arranged in the display module 24 of the position detector 10 for correcting the address and putting motion of the golf putter coupled to the putter head 42 at the time of back swing. By looking at your posture, that is, you can check the state of the putter head, so you can correct your own putting action by checking it yourself.

In the above-described embodiment, the case of the light emitting elements 26, 28, and 30 that perform posture correction as a visual effect on the display module 24 has been described. However, a buzzer may be installed in place of the light emitting elements to correct the posture correction. It should be noted that this can be done. If necessary, only two light emitting diodes 26 and 30 may be replaced by a buzzer in order to smoothly correct posture during backswing.

As described above, the present invention provides a position detector for address and putting motion correction that can be easily attached and detached from a golf putter, thereby correcting a posture of an address and a backswing without the help of a professional golfer. By using no heavy metals, eco-friendly posture correction golf putters can be produced.
