Abstract
A device utilizing an adhesive on the end of the handle of a golf club to permit recovering golf balls, most specifically from within the holes used in the game, without bending over and also providing a convenient place to store a marker for use in the game.
Description
- This Application is based upon a Provisional Application filed Jun. 24, 2000 and assigned Provisional Application No. 60/213,980.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to the game of golf and more specifically relates to a device that is readily affixed to the handle end of a golf club, most usually a putter, to be used to recover golf balls as well as other objects without bending over and, of greatest importance, to recover golf balls from the holes used in the game of golf, where the ball is lower than the surface on which the player is standing.
- 2. Prior Art and Objects
- The game of golf is extremely popular. Many people play the game and it is most popular with older and retired people. Frequently, many of these people have problems with bending over and that problem is aggravated when there is a need to pick up a golf ball which is below the surface on which the player is standing. In the game of golf, as is well-known, a player strives to place the ball within a hole which is several inches deep. Then it becomes necessary to remove the ball which requires bending over to the extent that the hand of the player can reach below the surface of the ground.
- Devices are known in the game of golf which permit players to recover a ball from a hole without bending over but such devices require substantial equipment beyond what is already needed to play the game of golf.
- Also, in playing golf, a marker is used to spot the last location of the golf ball before being played into the hole. A marker is used which is a colored disc on a pin. The markers are small and easy to misplace.
- Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a device which may be conveniently affixed to the end of the handle of a golf club, most likely a putter, and which permits the golf club to be used in an inverted position to pick up a golf ball from a hole without any bending being required.
- It is a further object of this invention to provide a readily assessable place to store a marker to spot the location of a golf ball when removal of the ball from the playing field is needed.
- It is still another object of this invention to provide a device for picking up a golf ball which is both inexpensive and durable.
- It is another object of this invention to provide a device which can be conveniently carried while on a golf course.
- It is another object of this invention to provide a device which can be easily secured on the end of the handle of the golf club without interfering with the use of the golf club.
- These and other objects of the invention will become apparent from the following description in connection with the appended drawings illustrating preferred embodiments of the invention. It is to be understood, however, that these are given by way of illustration and not of limitation and that changes may be made in the detailed construction, form and size of the parts and the material used, without affecting the scope of the invention.
- In one embodiment, a ring is placed generally concentrically on the end of the grip on the handle of a golf club. The ring or retainer is placed about the opening normally provided at the outside end grip. As an alternative to this same embodiment, a recess or cavity is formed in the end of the grip. The only difference is that with the latter version, the ring is actually constructed as part of the grip itself rather than being added on and secured to the end of the grip. An adhesive, which is tacky and remains tacky without hardening is placed within the ring and about the opening in the handle so as to avoid obstructing the opening in the handle.
- Markers are used in the game of golf to locate the last place a ball has come to rest on the playing field. Such markers are disks with a pin located generally concentrically from one surface and generally at right angles to that surface of the disk. The marker is placed through the space in the center of the ring and into the opening in the handle. A tape or coating is located on the pin and surface of the marker from which the pin extends so that the marker does not adhere to the adhesive.
- The foregoing description pertains to both the version where the ring is secured to the handle, probably using the same adhesive used to pick up the ball, and the version where the cavity is part of the handle, the handle having a generally concentric recessed section formed in the end of the handle.
- In a second embodiment, a cup which is flexible, is mounted on a hollow stem. The stem is placed in the opening in the handle of the golf club. An adhesive film is placed on the cup on the side opposite from the stem. As an alternative to the same second embodiment, a retainer is placed on the stem to secure the stem on the handle to prevent the stem from being pulled out of the handle.
- The marker, which is identical to the marker used in the first embodiment and also has the same protection from adhering to the adhesive, is mounted in the hollow stem with the same coating to prevent adhesion. The same adhesive is used as a film on the cup as is used in both versions of the first embodiment. The adhesive is provided in blanks of suitable size for ready replacement.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevation of a golf club standing vertically showing the various components of the golf club.
- FIG. 2 is an exploded view showing the first version of the first embodiment showing the ring or retainer mounted on the end of the grip of the golf club and showing the marker aligned with the opening in the grip.
- FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the second version of the first embodiment in which a cavity is formed in the end of the grip rather than by adding a ring to the end of the grip.
- FIG. 4 is a side view showing the ring in cross section with a golf ball held in place on the end of the grip of the inverted golf club.
- FIG. 5 is similar to FIG. 4 but with the cavity formed within the end of the grip.
- FIG. 6 is an exploded view of the first version of the second embodiment with a flexible surface on a hollow pin with the marker held in the hollow stem.
- FIG. 7 is an exploded view similar to FIG. 6, showing a second version of the second embodiment with a washer located on the stem to prevent the stem from pulling out of the opening in the grip on the handle of he golf club.
- FIG. 8 is a cross sectional view of the end of the golf club with the second version of the second embodiment installed.
- As best seen in FIG. 1, a
golf club 11, more specifically a putter, is shown. Thegolf club 11 includes amallet 13, ahandle 15 and agrip 17. Thegrip 17 is mounted on thehandle 15. At theoutside end 18 of thegrip 17 which is the end most remote from themallet 13, an opening 19 (FIG. 7) is universally provided in the grip, apparently to permit ventilation into thehandle 15 which is hollow. - Referring now to FIG. 2, the first version of the first embodiment can be seen. The end of the
grip 17 is shown with the opening 19 in it at the outside end as is a consistent feature for golf clubs regardless of manufacturer. Aring 21, which is shallow, is placed about the opening 19. The ring orretainer 21 may be cylindrical or may be a concave bowl with the opening 19 and with aspace 23 about the opening 19 in the center. An adhesive 25 that is soft and pliable and that does not harden but rather remains tacky is placed in the ring or retainer to form a concave surface about thespace 23 but thespace 23 about the opening does not have any adhesive 25.. An example of such a product is Scotch1 Double Face Adhesive Numbers 950 and 964. which will not dry out. The adhesive 25 is formed about thering 21 leaving thespace 23 at the center of thering 21 and about the opening 19. The adhesive 25 is formed to create a concave surface having a radius which generally is that of agolf ball 26. However, even a flat surface can be used but it is not as satisfactory. - As is known in the game of golf, a
marker 27 is used to spot the location of agolf ball 26 when thegolf ball 26 must be removed, as for example, to provide access to a hole for a different player. Amarker 27 is adisk 29, usually brightly colored, which has apin 31 extending at right angles from one side of thedisk 29 and generally at right angles to thedisk 29. Thepin 31 of themarker 27 is placed through thespace 23 at the center of the adhesive 25 provided at the center of thering 21 where no adhesive 25 is present and into theopening 19 at theoutside end 18 of the grip l7 on thehandle 15 of thegolf club 11. - As a result, the
outside end 18 of thegrip 17 on thehandle 15 of thegolf club 11 has a ring orretainer 21 secured to it most usually with thesame adhesive 25 that is placed within it. The adhesive 25 tapers from the ring orretainer 21 down toward theopening 19 in thegrip 17. Themarker 27, having apin 31 and adisc 29, has thepin 31 located in theopening 19 of thegrip 17. Afilm 33 may be located on thepin 31 and on the side of thedisk 29 where thepin 31 located. Thefilm 33, which could be masking tape, serves to prevent themarker 27 from adhering to the adhesive 25. Preferably, the adhesive 25 is kept a safe distance, which is thespace 23, from theopening 19. - In the second version of the embodiment just previously described, the ring or
retainer 21 for the adhesive 25 is generally acircular cavity 35 in theoutside end 18 of thegrip 17. Thecavity 35 is generally concentric about theopening 19 at theoutside end 18 of thegrip 17. Thesame adhesive 25 is placed in thecavity 35 as when a ring orretainer 21 is affixed to theoutside end 18 of thegrip 17 and once again should be kept a safe distance from theopening 19 which is thespace 23. This second version is most applicable when thegolf club 11 is being manufactured or where anew grip 17 is being placed on thehandle 15 of an existinggolf club 11. As to existinggolf clubs 11, without changing thegrip 17, thering 21 serves the same purpose as thecavity 35 in thegrip 17 and at a low cost. - In a first and most simple version of a second embodiment, as best seen in FIG. 6, the
same opening 19 in thegrip 17 of thegolf club 11 is utilized. Aretainer 37 is used which is formed from a flexible material. Theretainer 37 is mounted on astem 39 which extends generally at right angles from the center point on one side of theretainer 37. Achannel 40 extends through thestem 39. Theretainer 37 preferably has a concave surface on the side of theretainer 37 opposite from thestem 39. A cup shape for thecup 37 is preferable but a flat flexible plate, preferably circular, will function as theretainer 37. Themarker 27, as used in this embodiment, may use thesame film 33, as previously described, to prevent themarker 27 from becoming affixed to the adhesive 25 and keeping the adhesive a safe distance from thechannel 40 prevents thepin 31 from being contaminated with adhesive 25 when thestem 39 is placed in thechannel 40. Thedisk 29 of themarker 27 is directly above theretainer 37. The outside surface 41 of theretainer 37 is coated with thesame adhesive 25 as has been previously described. - The embodiment set forth immediately above is best for use with a very large number of existing
golf clubs 11, as it may be easily installed and may also be removed if, for any reason, such removal be desired. - There are some
golf clubs 11, where theopening 19 is sufficiently large that the weight of thegolf ball 26 extracts thestem 39 from theopening 19. To prevent this, a second version of the second embodiment may be used. Thestem 39 is formed with a larger diameter to fit more securely into theopening 19. Thestem 39, however, beyond the depth of theopening 19, reduces in diameter forming anend shank 43. - A
washer 45 is secured to theend shank 43 or may be formed with thestem 39. Based upon manufacturing costs, it is preferable to produce thewasher 45 as a separate part and glue it to theend shank 43 but thestem 39 and thewasher 45 may be produced together as one piece. - The
washer 45 has a flat circular surface facing theretainer 37 and tapers away from theretainer 37 inwardly to a reduced diameter. - With the
washer 45 installed, theretainer 37 and stem 39 is forced into theopening 39. Thewasher 45, as can readily be seen, prevents thestem 39 from being pulled out of the opening. However, if removal is desired, it can be accomplished, due to the flexibility of the opening in thehandle 17, providing a pair of pliers are used. - When playing golf, the
marker 27 is used to spot the location of thegolf ball 26 when thegolf ball 26 must be removed, as for example, when thegolf ball 26 obstructs the path of another player. To use themarker 27, it is removed from thechannel 40 in thestem 39 of theretainer 37. In the first embodiment, themarker 27 is removed directly from theopening 19 within thering 21 orcavity 35. Themarker 27 is placed on the ground with thepin 31 in the ground to prevent the marker from moving. - To remove a
golf ball 26 from a hole in the golf course, thegolf club 11 is inverted and theoutside end 18 of thegrip 17 with themarker 27 removed, is placed into the hole in contact with thegolf ball 26. Thegolf ball 26 adheres to the adhesive 25 either within thering 21 orcavity 35 or on thecup 37 and thegolf ball 26 is thus pulled out of the hole. Thegolf ball 26 is readily removed from the adhesive 25 without any adhesive 25 remaining on thegolf ball 26. The adhesive 25 can also be used to pick up themarker 27 as well as any other article having a hard surface. - In this way, the golf player need not bend over, most particularly to recover the
golf ball 26 from down within a hole. Limitations on a player's ability to bend over comfortably thus do not prevent such a player from enjoying the game. - Thus while two embodiments, each embodiment having two versions, have been shown and described, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many other changes may be made without departing from the invention in its broader aspects.
