belongs】 The present invention relates generally to a grip, and more particularly to a sliding sleeve type (S 1 i P -ο η) with a multi-material surface ) Grips are used with many tools or objects like winding golf club handles. [Prior art] Many different types of grips currently used are used for a wide variety of objects, including, but not limited to tools (counterweight, etc.), rackets (handball, badminton or tennis rackets), bats (Baseball or softball), pool cue, umbrella, fishing rod, or similar. Even though the invention is particularly suitable for use as a golf club grip and refers specifically to a golf club grip, the term "handgri P" as used herein represents all of these items as well as Other objects. It should be immediately understood that the present invention can be applied to any of the aforementioned applications, especially for grip applications. Sliding sleeve golf club grips made of a molded rubber material or synthetic resin are well known in the golf industry. As used herein, the term "slip sleeve (s 1 ip-ο η)" means to slide onto a shaft or handle and be fixed to it by an adhesive or the like Grip made of type material. Sliding sleeve grips can have many shapes and configurations. These slip-on grips can be wiped to leave some fleece throughout the rubber compound to provide a variety of grip styles and feels. 200302122 Winding grips are also known in the industry. In the past, golf club grips were simply leather or fabric wraps wrapped around the shafts of golf clubs. Next, synthetic materials are used to replace the leather or the fabric. In recent years, these wraps are made of various elastic materials that are spirally wrapped around the shaft of a golf club or, alternatively, wrapped around a shaft positioned on the golf club. The sleeve on the rod is, for example, described in U.S. Patent No. 35,673. Prior to this, all existing winding-type grips were built on the entire grip with a single surface materi, and especially where the grip was held by a hand. "Single surface material" means that the surface of the handle is the same material. The winding length of these existing single-surface material grips over the entire functional length of the grip surface of the grip lacks decorative or aesthetic changes in appearance and feel. A need exists for an improved grip that can provide the economical and durable advantages of a sliding sleeve-type grip, and that the improved grip has the shape of a winding grip and the feel of the hand. This club grip will provide an improved multi-material surface and provide a more stable grip in all types of weather and / or use conditions. The grip can be easily obtained and provides a more excellent grip with a longer life. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an improved winding-type grip having a multi-material surface. 200302122 Another object of the present invention is to provide a wrap-around grip with the durability of a sliding sleeve type grip, and moreover, to provide an excellent grip suitable for all weather and / or use conditions. Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a wrap-type golf club grip having a multi-material surface, which has a special and pleasing appearance and the convenience of a one-piece slip sleeve golf club grip Sex and economy. The above and other objects of the present invention are achieved by a wrap-type grip including an elastic body having a substantially cylindrical shape. The elastic body includes a drilled hole which is constructed to be slidably received on a workpiece. The elastic body further includes a spiral structured channel extending from an upper portion of the elastic body to a lower portion of the elastic body. A long alternative material of the elastic body is constructed to be arranged in the spiral structure channel to form a winding-type grip having a multi-material surface. The strip may be made of a material including, but not limited to, polyurethane, leather, a natural cloth or fabric, a synthetic cloth or fabric, a synthetic plastic or rubber material, a thermoplastic or heat-set material, Or a combination of the above. The present invention is also directed to a method for manufacturing a winding-type grip. The method includes the steps of providing a substantially cylindrical body portion made of an elastomer, and forming an elastic body in the elastic body. A spiral channel from the upper part of the main body to the lower part of the main body, and a long alternative material is arranged inside the spiral channel to make the winding handle in 200302122. The various novel features of the invention are specifically identified within the scope of the patent application which accompanies and forms part of the disclosure of the invention. In order to better understand the present invention, the operating advantages of the present invention, and the special purpose achieved by the use of the present invention, please refer to the accompanying drawings and description main body, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of the present invention . [Embodiment] With reference to the drawings, these drawings are not intended to limit the present invention thereto, and in these drawings, the same element reference symbols represent the same or similar features; and, first, refer to The first figure; the first figure shows a winding grip according to the present invention, like a golf club grip, designated as a whole by the component reference number 8. As described above, the present invention can be applied to any article using a sliding sleeve grip, and is not limited to a golf club grip. Slip sleeve golf club grip systems are widely used in the industry and can even be regarded as "traditional golf club grips". These grips are usually made of an elastic material, such as a rubber compound or synthetic plastic. As used herein, the terms "elastomer (e 1 ast ommer)", "rubber compound", "synthetic plastic", "thermoplastic material", "thermoset material", or simply "rubber" are interchangeable and are To be used to represent the same material. Many rubber compounds are known in the industry for making a wide variety of sliding sleeve grips. These materials provide convenience, economy, and durability. In addition, these rubber compounds provide the good hand feel or grip characteristics required by the industry. In all types of weather and conditions of use 200302122, these materials can be easily held by hand, and can provide a stable grip. As shown in the first figure, the main body portion 10 of the golf club grip is made of rubber and is generally cylindrical. As shown in the fourth figure ', the main body portion 10 of the handle 8 includes a drilled hole 1 1 located therein. The diameter of the hole 11 is consistent with a shaft or a handle (also referred to as a workpiece in this article). The drill holes 1 1 are adapted to allow the handle 8 to be slidably received on the workpiece. Preferably, the main body portion 10 further includes a tapered portion consistent with the workpiece. In this example, the workpiece is a shaft of a golf club (a portion indicated by a dashed line in the second figure). The golf club grip can be slipped onto the shaft immediately and attached to it with a known adhesive. The third and fourth figures show a top view and a bottom view of a tapered golf club grip. The grip and maintenance of the grip of this slip-type golf club is well known and need not be described in detail herein. Grip replacement is a relatively fast and inexpensive process, and is mostly performed by golf experts and / or golf club makers. The elastic main body portion 10 has a spiral-shaped channel 12 which extends downward from an upper portion 14 of the elastic main body portion 10 to a lower portion 16. An exposed upper surface 17 is left on the elastic main body portion 10 because of the spiral channel 12. The exposed upper surface 17 is the first part of the multi-material surface of the handle 8. The term "multi-material surface," as used herein, means that the surface of the handle is made of different types of materials. It should be understood that the words "above," and "below" used in this article 200302122 , Refers to the golf club grip 8 in its normal orientation. The "upper part" of a grip is the part closest to the end of the shaft or handle of the workpiece. The "lower part" is the grip The opposite end. The width (w 1) and depth (d) of the spirally-shaped channel 12 are constructed to accommodate a strip 18 (also known as a covering) of another material.
