Description

Indicator golf club{GOLF CLUB WITH INDICATOR}

The present invention relates to a golf club, and more specifically, it is possible to easily check the position where the golf ball touches the head of the golf club that hits the golf ball, so that the golfer's own swing and shot can be diagnosed and corrected when hitting, thereby allowing precise shots and shots. It is about an indicator golf club to enable putting to be made.

Generally, golf begins with hitting a golf ball with the head of a golf club using a tee. Afterwards, various types of golf clubs are used to hit the golf ball on the green, and then a putter is used to put the golf ball into the hole to complete a round.

In the case of a golf game played in this way, shots or putts are made at each stage using various golf balls, and each person uses the golf club or golf ball they want according to their body type or preference.

In general, in a golf game, there are basic batting postures, swing postures, putting postures, etc., and through these postures or actions such as swinging when hitting, the golf ball can be sent to the desired location.

In such golf play, when hitting a golf ball with the head of a golf club, if you know where the head of the golf club hits the golf ball, you will be able to play more easily while correcting your golf posture or swing.

However, since most golf club heads are made of metal, even if they collide strongly with a golf ball, the golf ball may be damaged, but the surface of the metal golf club head remains intact. Occasionally, when there is a foreign object on the golf ball, golf ball marks sometimes appear due to a strong collision, but it is also unclear whether the marks were from a previous hit.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for technology that can determine where on the head the golf ball is hit when hitting it.

Hereinafter, it will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

That is, the indicator golf club 10 according to the present invention is a golf club having a head 20 below a grip 11 and a shaft 12, as shown in Figures 1 to 7 attached. In , 10), when the golf ball 2 is hit by the head 20, it relates to an indicator golf club 10 (golf club with indicator) for indicating the position hit by collision.

In particular, hitting the golf ball (2) with the head (20) of the golf club (10) during a shot or putting, in particular, the direction in which the golf ball (2) faces depending on whether the golf ball (2) hits the head (20). There is a significant difference in the feeling of hitting. Of course, you can intentionally hit the desired location, but you need to be able to clearly see whether or not it touches the desired location.

For this purpose, the head 20 is provided to indicate the position where the golf ball 2 hits. Looking at the configuration of the head 20 in detail, as shown in the attached drawing, a hole is formed in the head front portion 21, which is the front of the head 20.

In particular, it is provided with a pin 30 inserted into the hole of the head 20.

Accordingly, the main feature is that when hitting the golf ball 2, the pin 30 is inserted into the hole due to impact with the golf ball 2.

Therefore, when the golf ball 2 is struck, the position where the pin 30 that enters alone among the plurality of pins 30 located on the head 20 is located is the position where the golf ball 2 is hit.

For example, as in the example of Figure 2, in the case of 3 columns in the vertical direction and 4 columns in the horizontal direction, they are numbered 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, and 2-1, 2-2, respectively. , 2-3, 2-4, and also 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, etc., and other coordinate values depending on the shape of the head and the arrangement of holes or pins. You can set it in various ways to suit your needs.

The head 20 according to the present invention prepared in this way is a hole formed in the head front part 21 of the head 20 as shown in FIG. 4, etc., and has a pin location groove 22 where the pin 30 is located. is formed In addition, it includes a pin guide flow hole 23 in which the pin 30 located in the pin position groove 22 is inserted to form a hole to enable reciprocating movement in the longitudinal direction.

Accordingly, the pin 30 is inserted into the pin location groove 22 and is positioned within the pin guide flow hole 23. Accordingly, the pin guide flow hole 23 generally has a long length in the direction in which the pin 30 is inserted and has a cross-sectional shape similar to that of the pin 30. That is, if the cross-sectional shape of the pin 30 is circular, oval, square, or polygonal, the corresponding cross-sectional shape of the pin location groove 22 and the pin guide flow hole 23 is circular, oval, square, and polygonal. It may be made of polygons, etc.

In addition, the spring inserted into the pin guide flow hole 23 further includes a pin spring 24 that contacts the rear of the reciprocating pin 30 and pushes the pin 30 outward. Therefore, the pin (30) inserted into the pin guide flow hole (23) is pushed outward again by the pin spring (24), so that the pin (30) is in the state before contact with the golf ball (2). It will return to its position.

In addition, in the indicator golf club 10 according to the present invention, as the pin 30 enters upon collision with the golf ball 2, it becomes an indicator that displays the position where the golf ball 2 comes into contact, It may also be provided to electronically display the part that the golf ball 2 touches. To this end, a sensor may be provided to determine whether the pin 30, which the golf ball 2 comes into contact with, is in a retracted state.

That is, the end of the pin 30 reciprocating within the pin guide flow hole 23 comes into contact with it and includes a sensor 53 that detects the state in which the pin 30 has moved backward.

The head 20 for installing such a sensor forms a groove behind the pin guide flow hole 23 and forms a sensor installation groove 24 where the sensor 53 is located. Therefore, in the head 20, only the pins 30 that entered the pin guide flow hole 23 are positioned at positions corresponding to each pin 30 (e.g., 1-1, 1-2 as shown in FIG. 2). ..... each position (corresponding to coordinate values such as 3-3, 3-4, etc.) is provided with a sensor 53 in correspondence with each pin. Accordingly, the spring rod 33, which will be described later, which moves backward, contacts or approaches the sensor 53, causing the sensor 53 to detect that the pin 30 is moving backward. Known sensor technology capable of detecting the rear of the pin 30 may be applied to this sensor 53, and a detailed technical description of this sensor will be omitted.

As a result, by processing in the hitting display controller 50, etc., which will be described later, the hitting coordinates are displayed on the display device (indicator), which is a display device (54) provided near the grip (11), which is a handle, so that the position where the golf ball was hit can be easily known. There will be.

The pin 30 according to the present invention prepared as described above is provided with a pin head 31 that contacts the golf ball 2. In general, in order to ensure smooth contact with the golf ball 2, the width may be generally larger than that of the rear pin rod 32. And the cross-section may be circular as shown in FIG. 2, or may be of other square, oval, or polygonal shapes.

And the pin 30 is provided with a pin rod 32 that extends to the rear of the pin head 31, passes through the pin position groove 22 of the head 20, and is located in the pin guide flow hole 23.

This pin rod 32 may have a long length extending to the rear pin spring 29.

And it extends to the rear of the pin rod 32 and includes a spring rod 33 to which the pin spring 29 is coupled. In the example of the attached drawing, the spring rod 33 is provided with a thickness thinner than the pin rod 32. As a result, the pin spring 29 will be located around the spring rod 33.

In addition, the rear end of the spring rod (33) has a sensor (53) installed in the sensor installation groove (24) at the rear of the pin guide flow hole (23) as the pin (30) moves rearward when hitting the golf ball (2). The rear of the spring rod 33 will be close to or in contact with the sensor 53 so that it can be sensed.

In addition, a pin locking protrusion 34 protruding outward is formed on one side of the pin rod 32 of the pin 30.

And the head 20 forms a stopper guide flow groove 25, which is a groove formed in a direction perpendicular to the pin guide flow hole 23 and the pin rod 32 of the pin 30.

In particular, it is provided with a stopper plate 40 that reciprocates within the stopper guide flow groove 25 and moves in a direction perpendicular to the pin rod 32.

The stopper plate 40 forms a large-area stopper 41 that is larger than the thickness of the stopper plate 40.

In addition, a stopper pin hole 42, which is a through hole through which the pin rod 32 of the pin 30 passes, is provided.

That is, as in the example in FIG. 2, the coordinates of the pin location groove 22 and the pin guide flow hole 23 where the pin 30 is located are 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc. Like example coordinates such as 1-4, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, etc., the stopper pinhole 42 also has these coordinates. Each hole is formed at the same coordinates as .

In the case provided in this way, when the pin 30 moves rearward due to a collision with the golf ball 2, the pin locking protrusion 34 formed on the pin rod 32 is connected to the stopper pin hole 42 of the stopper plate 40. ) and is caught on the stopper large area portion 41 around the stopper pin hole 42 to prevent the pin rod 32 and pin 30 from moving in all directions.

In addition, the stopper plate 40 is located inside the stopper guide flow groove 25 and includes a stopper spring 44 that pushes the stopper plate 40. Accordingly, the stopper plate 40 is pushed outward to the left in examples such as FIGS. 5 and 6 by the stopper spring 44.

Therefore, before hitting the golf ball 2, the pin blocking protrusion 34 formed on the pin 30 prevents the pin 30 from moving backward, and when the pin 30 that has hit the golf ball 2 moves backward. This prevents the pin blocking projection (34) from moving forward. Accordingly, the pin 30, which has moved rearward, will be able to maintain its rearward movement state. As a result, it serves as an indicator that displays the hitting state of the golf ball (2).

In addition, it is provided with a stopper push button 43 that protrudes from the other side of the stopper plate 40 and protrudes outside the stopper guide flow groove 25 of the head 20. Therefore, by pressing the stopper push button 43 inward, the stopper plate 40 presses the stopper spring 44, and due to the movement of the stopper plate 40, the hanging pin locking protrusion 34 is released, and the pin ( 30) can move in all directions with the force of the pin spring (29).

Looking at this series of processes, first, as shown in FIG. 4, before the golf ball 2 hits the pin 30, each pin advances in all directions. Accordingly, as in the example of FIG. 5, the pin locking protrusion 34 formed on the pin 30 is located between the outward head front wall 26 and the stopper plate 40.

Thereafter, when the user hits the golf ball 2 with the head 20 using the golf club 10, the pin 30 in contact with the golf ball 2 moves backward. That is, as shown in 6, the pin locking protrusion 34 formed on the pin 30 moves backward from between the head front wall 26 and the stopper plate 40, and moves the stopper plate 40 to the right stopper spring ( As the stopper plate 40 is pushed to the right in the example of FIG. 6 while pressing 44), the stopper pin hole 42 formed in the stopper plate 40 also moves in the right direction, eventually causing the pin 30 and the pin locking protrusion 34 ) is created so that space can move rearward, so the pin 30 and the pin locking protrusion 34 move rearward.

Therefore, it serves as an indicator showing the state in which the pin 30 in contact with the golf ball 2 has moved backward.

Afterwards, when the user pushes the stopper push button 43 protruding from the left side of the stopper plate 40 to the left side of the head 20 toward the right side of the head 20, the stopper plate 40 moves to the right and the stopper The spring 44 is pressurized.

At the same time, the stopper pin hole 42 formed in the stopper plate 40 moves to the right in FIG. 6, thereby creating a free space through which the pin locking protrusion 34 formed on the pin 30 can pass. Therefore, the pin 30 moves in the forward direction by the force of the pin spring 29 coupled to the spring rod 33 at the rear of the pin 30. In this case, the pin locking protrusion 34 formed on the pin 30 is caught by the head front sheath 35 of the head 20 to prevent the pin 30 from moving further in the forward direction. As a result, the pin 30 returns to the position before hitting the golf ball 2.

In addition, as described above, a separate indicator may be provided near the grip 11 or on the grip or shaft 12 to digitally display the position where the golf ball 2 is hit. For this purpose, a sensor 53 is installed inside the pin guide flow hole 23 of the head 20 and detects the movement of the pin 30 moving backward.

In addition, it is provided with a hit display controller 50 that receives a detection signal from the sensor 53, and includes a memory 51 that stores the detected data of the sensor 53 and the data displayed on the displayer 54. will be.

In addition, a display 54 that receives and displays information from the hitting display controller 50 may be provided to display the hitting position of the golf ball 2 on the grip, shaft, or near the grip or head. In the attached example of FIG. 1, a displayer 54 and a hitting display controller 50 are provided on the shaft near the grip.

In addition, it is provided with a battery 52 that supplies power to the hitting display controller 50 and the displayer 54.

In addition, looking at the detailed configuration of the hitting display controller 50, it is provided with a sensor input unit 501 that receives data detected by a plurality of sensors 53. Therefore, sensing signals are received from multiple sensors consisting of multiple coordinates.

In addition, it is provided with a location determination unit 502 that analyzes signals detected by a plurality of sensors 53 and determines information on the location of the sensor 53. Accordingly, the coordinate information of the pin 30 that the golf ball 2 touches is analyzed.

In addition, it includes a display information processing unit 503 that transmits display information to the display 54 to display the location information of the sensor 53 determined by the position determination unit 502. Accordingly, pin coordinates of the coordinates shown in the example of FIG. 2 may be displayed.

As a result, the user will be able to easily check the location where the golf ball 2 was hit through the coordinates displayed on the display 54.

As another example, when indicators such as the sensor 53, hit display controller 50, and displayer 54 are applied, the stopper plate 40, stopper spring 44, etc. are omitted. It can be done, and in the case of the pin 30, the pin locking protrusion 34 can be omitted, and in the case of the head, the configuration of the stopper guide flow groove 25, etc. can also be omitted, depending on the state of implementation. Specifications can be set and implemented.

The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but since this is an embodiment so that a person skilled in the art of the present invention can easily practice the present invention, the description of the embodiments The technical idea of the present invention should not be construed as limited.
