Description

201127459 VI. Description of the Invention: [Technical Field to Which the Invention Is Ascribed] The present invention relates to a golf club prepared from basalt fiber. [Prior Art] Background of the Invention Golf balls are enjoyed by a wide variety of different players, including players who do not have other players, and players who are arrogant in age and skill level. Yu Shishi, the slight φ of Gaoqiu Ball is unique in that such a diverse collection of players can play golf and even compete directly with each other (eg using obstacle scoring, different nail boxes, competing in teams, etc.) But still enjoy golf and competition. These factors are added to the golf program on TV (such as golf tournaments, golf news, high-sports history and/or other sorghum ball festivals _ increase and the well-known high-ball superstars do' at least partially contribute to golf in the US and globally in recent years. The popularity of ball sports. Participation in this system _ the number of people and the number of golf courses has been steadily increasing in recent years. All technical level golfers are looking to improve their performance and reduce their golf scores to the next level of performance. Manufacturers of various types of high-ball equipment responded to such demands. 'The industry has observed major changes and improvements in high-ball equipment. Nowadays, there have been wide and different golf forms, and some golf balls are designed to compensate for specific waves. Rod speed and/or other player characteristics or preferences, such as some ball designs to fly further and/or straighter, some balls designed to provide higher or flatter trajectories, and some balls designed to provide more surface spin, Control / do fine ^ 彳 in Guolingqi, etc.). There are also a large number of swing aids and/or teaching aids on the market, which can help reduce one's golf score. Golf clubs are a key tool for moving golf balls during play, so golf clubs have also been the subject of technical research and development in recent years. For example, in recent years, improvements have been made in the market for putter design, golf club head design shafts and handle design. In addition, other technological advances are also devoted to better matching the various components and/or characteristics of golf clubs and/or golf ball characteristics to the swing characteristics or characteristics of a particular user (eg, bar fitting technology, ball launch angle measurement techniques) , ball spin rate characteristics, etc.). Conventional golf clubs have three basic components: the handle, the shaft and a head. As shown in the golf club 1 第 of Fig. 1, a handle 〇Η is attached/sleeved to the upper portion of the shaft portion 102. The shaft portion 1〇2 connects the handle 1〇1 to the head ι〇3. The shaft portion 1〇2 is fixed by the player, and the _ portion 1G3 is a portion that actually hits the ball. The player holds the handle (9) of the golf club (10), except for the handle of the putter, which is rounded/and the through towel has no obvious bumps, clumps or empty spaces. The handle can be made of any suitable material 'usually polymer, rubber or leather. The handle can contain small holes, grooved ridges, cord-like elements or fabric material to make it easier for the player to fix the club.

It does not become a rule that the handle 1G1 is too large and thus violates the golf ball. There are a variety of sizes of handles that can be used to make ingredients. The wheel has personal preferences. The shaft of the W 砵100 is connected to the handle 1〇1. The shaft portion 102 is similar to the handle, and the four sides of the W103 are round. The shaft portion 1〇2 can be a pen-shaped 201127459 which is a roughly conical tubular member (but not limited), the diameter of the handle is μ leaf (1) mm, and the length is usually called 48. Repair 122, typically 35 to 45 (1) cm). The most recent golf club draws are typically made of steel or fiber reinforced resin complexes, such as glass fibers and carbon or graphite fibers. Carbon fiber composites are lighter in weight than steel but tend to be more expensive. Some shaft sections utilize two or more types of other (four)' such as a graphite composite shaft portion with a tip end.

Figure 2 shows the head 1〇3 of a conventional golf club. The typical head 〇3 has several parts: the head bolt 104, where the head 103 is coupled to the shaft portion 1〇2; the face 105, the face is actually the ball striking portion; the bottom portion is 1〇6, and the bottom Qiu air guiding device κ ι W is the part closest to the ground; the back (not shown in the 2nd _ position in the W 1G5 axis paste 1G9. _ UG system extends on both the heel side and the bottom side of the club head 103, at the top 109 and bottom 106. The face 1〇5 may be formed to include a separate panel formed, for example, of metal, attached to the frame defined by the rest of the club head. The head of the head is 1 〇 3 is a swing All energy is transferred to the part of the golf ball. There are many types of dough club heads, including, for example, wood poles, irons, wood type mixing rods, iron type mixing rods and putter club heads. The nickname is the club that belongs to the club with the largest head. Some of these large clubs are designed to propel the ball a long distance, such as a code tree, with a single swing. The big dragon and the suspected materials such as metal (such as steel, (four) township Pomegranate, or carbon fiber plus 201127459 strong resin composite Balanced to provide stability and lightweight weight The head shape of the club or wood pole includes a wooden mixer head that moves the weight of the head to points that enhance stability. The shape also allows the head to slide over the grass and the ground rather than deep into the turf. The iron-based design has a more axis than the wooden pole. The wood _ club is suitable for long range to very long range, while the iron is used From less than 3 yards to a range of less than 4 yards or less. Less late development gains and miscellaneous (4) design have made the irons more "tolerant" and easier for ordinary players to hit. Designed to strike the golf ball with a ball striking surface that is substantially perpendicular to the desired ball diameter, with a relatively gentle swing that causes the ball to roll down the ground until the ball stops or the ball falls into the hole. The putter head is broad A variety of different shapes, including block, knife, short, long, thick, thin, etc., as needed, different line patterns may appear on the face or even smooth surfaces. The "number" or name associated with the club is usually And when the club is fixed to its normal face The position of the ball when the face (10) is tilted back vertically. The higher number of clubs indicates a deviation from the vertical transmission. The slope is generally higher than the lower number. The slope is higher and shorter. It is important to push through the air and provide spin on the desired trajectory. Typically, the greater the slope, the greater the spin. The fast spin provides aerodynamics to raise the 'spin ball' more than the ball that does not spin at all. High and farther. The spin ball is also less affected by gusts' so a more predictable range is available. The groove on the face ι〇5 can also assist in providing spin. 201127459 On the face of the Nalff club The groove can provide a slight "family" or friction when the golf ball slips through the face, assisting it to spin more quickly. In addition, if the grass is caught between the ball and the club during the impact, then #草The moisture will be squeezed out by the swing force generated by the _ swing. Touching the tread of the car wheel (4), the groove on the face of the club allows the water to flow, so that the ball does not spin up from the face of the club without spin. Ideally, the bottom of the golf club will help reduce the torque of the bad swing. The wood and wood-type blenders have a relatively wide and flat (four) bottom with rounded edges that help the head slide through the grass surface without deep digs inside the turf. On the other hand, the irons are easily impacted and thus swayed from the turf - mud or turf, so the bottom of the iron golf clubs (including the iron-type hybrid rods) is typically designed to be uniform _ through the turf without torsion or unevenness Dragging oxygen to destroy the range of the player. A fiber reinforced resin composite material is known for use in the construction of a golf club shaft portion.匕 力 σ σ 纤维 纤维 包括 σ σ σ 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 Fiber-reinforced _ composite materials can hide structures, raft structures and ties.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the scope of the present invention is by no means limited to the examples or the results achieved by the examples. Details of the example of the head and other structures A. Basalt-basalt fiber _ Reinforced resin Generally, basalt is a hard-colored volcanic rock composed mainly of plagioclase, pyroxene and sapphire. The main lines of basalt are crushed rocks, and the remaining construction projects, Weiyeweicheng and expressway guards. Basalt is also made into fine fibers, microfibers, and very fine ages. It is known that basalt fiber is more resistant to mosquitoes, heat insulation and sound insulation, and its durability is superior to many other fibers. For example, basalt fiber products can provide extremely low thermal conductivity and can withstand processing temperatures exceeding 816 °C. In addition, products made from basalt fiber do not cause toxic reactions in air or water, are non-flammable, are explosion-proof and have a long service life. When basalt fiber is in contact with other chemicals, the basalt fiber does not produce a chemical reaction that may compromise the general structural integrity of the structure created by the health, environment, or basalt fiber. Basalt is also economical and acid resistant. 201127459 The products of basalt fiber can also be improved. For example, (4) Basalt strength rods (used to replace steel reinforcement rods) made of basalt fiber and complex 5 materials have a tensile strength of 12 (8). Basalt can be continuous or non-fibrous, particle 'flakes, whiskers, ribbons and cups open v. For example, basalt fibers typically have a diameter of from about 9 microns to 23 microns. Non-continuous or chopped basalt fibers typically have a length of from 1 cm to 5 cm. The basalt material may also be manufactured as a #, mat, H, grid, grid, woven, woven fabric, textile, or a mixture thereof, such as continuous or discontinuous fibers, Made of particles, flakes, whiskers, filaments, ribbons, rods, and combinations thereof. . The present invention will make "basalt material" - the word roughly indicates that the term refers to any suitable basalt form including but basalt basalt fiber reinforcement as fine. Objects, metals, composites, etc.; in the form of sheets, mats, vanes, grids, grids, wovens, 'a piece of aa grid, visiting fabrics, or a mixture thereof containing basalt structures. In a particular aspect of the invention, the basalt material is combined with a suitable polymer matrix to form a basalt reinforced polymer composite. As a specific example, basalt may be in the form of a fibrous phase to blend the basalt surface with a synthetic base. Manufacture of the rock fiber reinforced product 0 Any desired polymer matrix or substrate can be used and reinforced with Qianyan material including basalt fiber _ not _ the details of the invention. For example, the polymer matrix comprises: a thermosetting resin such as a Wei resin, a kiln or a urea resin, a heteropolycarboxylic acid brewing tree/2 201127459 grease, a polyester resin, a vinyl ester resin, etc.; and a thermoplastic resin such as a polypropylene resin Entity ether_resin, acrylonitrile_butadiene_stupyl vinyl resin, nylon resin, and the like. Other examples include, but are not limited to, polyphenylene sulfide resin, polyfluorene resin, polyethylene terephthalate resin, and t acid 5 resin.

Prior to mixing with the polymer matrix, basalt fibers can be treated or coated with chemical slurries or basalt fibers can be treated to modify surface energy, for example to make basalt fibers more compatible with the polymer matrix. The sizing treatment includes, for example, coating with an epoxy resin or a phenol resin, acid treatment, atmospheric piezoelectric slurry, corona discharge, or the like. The invention will be generally described in terms of a resin, but any suitable polymer matrix can be used. For example, basalt fiber is mixed with a resin to form a basalt fiber reinforced resin composition. The content of the reinforcing composition of the reinforcing composition in the resin matrix is usually in the range of from 5 to 1% to 7 Å wt/o of the reinforcement or from about 2 ν〇ι% to 5 〇 ν% by weight. Generally, the content of the reinforcing composition of the reinforcing resin in the resin base towel is in the range of 3Q wt% to 5Q wt% strengthening or the range of strengthening from about 13 vol% to 27 vol%, which is based on the _way Performance requirements and forms of basalt material, such as sheets, enamels, slabs, grids, grids, wovens, wovens, latticed pieces, textiles, or mixtures thereof, such as It consists of continuous Wei Fei, age, particles, flakes, specimens, filaments, ribbons, rods and combinations thereof.
