Abstract

This invention relates to a manufacturing method of a golf club head, comprising a dividing step, a masking step, a plating step, and a removing step. In the dividing step, a plated area and a non-plated area are divided on a club head body. In the masking step, a magnetic masking element is attached on the club head body to mask the non-plated area. In the plating step, the club head body is electroplated. In the removing step, the mask is removed, thereby manufacturing a golf club head. The masking element can be magnetically attached on the non-plating area of the club head body to mask the non-plating area, so that the non-plating area will not be electroplated in the electroplating step. This invention can avoid spray coating and paint removing processes to enhance processing efficiency, so as to be conducive to mass production.

Description

Manufacturing method of golf club head

The present invention relates to a manufacturing method, especially a manufacturing method of a golf club head.

With the increase of users and the advancement of manufacturing technology, the appearance of golf club heads has come up with new ones. In addition to paying attention to the performance and feel when hitting the ball, decorative appearances that do not affect performance have also begun to be added, such as electroplating on golf club heads. In order to produce a shiny visual effect, but when processing the curved surface of the golf club head, in order to avoid the impact of electroplating, or to consider the overall appearance design, the entire curved surface is not made of electroplating area, but in this area. The surface is divided into electroplating area and non-plating area. At this time, the non-plating area is generally covered by spray painting, and then the whole surface is electroplated. In this way, electroplating will only be formed on the electroplating area of metal material, and finally the spray paint will be removed. This ensures that the non-plated areas are not plated to produce the desired visual effect.

However, the process of spraying and removing the paint masking is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the efficiency is low, which is not conducive to mass production, so there is still a great room for improvement.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a time-saving and labor-saving manufacturing method of a golf club head.

Therefore, the manufacturing method of the golf club head of the present invention includes a dividing step, a masking step, a plating step, and a removing step. In the dividing step, a plated area and a non-plated area are divided on a head body. In a shielding step, a magnetic shielding element is adsorbed on the head body and shields the non-plated area. In the electroplating step, the head body is electroplated. In the removing step, the shield is removed, thereby producing a golf club head.

The effect of the present invention is that the shielding element can be adsorbed on the non-plating area of the head body through magnetic attraction, so as to produce a shielding effect on the non-plating area, so that the non-plating area will not be electroplated in the electroplating step, and In the removal step, the masking piece only needs to be removed directly to complete the removal, the installation and removal is simple and the application is fast. The present invention eliminates the spraying and paint removal processes, reduces the manpower requirement and improves the processing efficiency, thereby facilitating mass production. .

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 , an embodiment of a method for manufacturing a golf club head of the present invention includes a dividing step 11 , a masking step 12 , a plating step 13 , and a removing step 14 . In the dividing step 11 , a head body 2 to be electroplated is prepared. The head body 2 includes a casing 21 and a striking face plate 22 connected to the casing 21 . The striking face plate 22 is formed with a plurality of line grooves 221 arranged in an array. The line grooves 221 may be formed by engraving or etching, or may be integrally formed during casting, die casting or forging of the head body 2 . The head body 2 is divided into a plated area on the shell 21 and a non-plated area on the strike panel 22 . It should be noted that the aforementioned division may be marked by scribe lines or other marking methods to mark the boundary of the non-plated area, but may not be marked and only visually confirm the scope of the non-plated area.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3 , in the shielding step 12 , a magnetic shielding member 3 is prepared, the size of which is designed to shield the non-plated area (in this embodiment, the striking panel 22 ). In the dividing step 11 , there is no need to mark the head body 2 , as long as the outline and size of the shielding member 3 are designed. Then, the shielding member 3 is magnetically attracted to the striking panel 22 to shield the non-plated area. Of course, the head body 2 or at least the striking face plate 22 is a ferromagnetic substance. In the electroplating step 13 , the entire club head body 2 is electroplated. Due to the shielding of the shielding member 3 , the electroplating effect is only produced on the electroplating area of the club head body 2 .

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 4 , in the removing step 14 , the shielding member 3 is removed from the striking face plate 22 , thereby producing a golf club head 4 as shown in FIG. 4 , the golf club head 4 There is no electroplating effect on the striking panel 22 , and electroplating effect is produced on the housing 21 . It should be noted that, although the striking panel 22 is used as the non-plated area and the shell 21 is used as the electroplated area in this embodiment, it is not limited to this, and the club head can also be used according to actual needs. The main body 2 is divided into the electroplating area and the non-electroplating area, and even a plurality of non-electroplating areas are divided. If so, a plurality of shielding elements 3 need to be used, and the same effect can be achieved.

To sum up, the manufacturing method of the golf club head of the present invention achieves the shielding effect by adsorbing the shielding member 3 on the non-plated area, which is easy to assemble and disassemble and labor-saving, can reduce the process and improve the processing efficiency, and is beneficial to a large number of Therefore, the purpose of the present invention can indeed be achieved.

However, the above are only examples of the present invention, and should not limit the scope of the present invention. All simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the application for patent of the present invention and the contents of the patent specification are still within the scope of the present invention. within the scope of the invention patent.
