Definitions
- the present invention relates to a golf tee according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Golf tees are known in various designs. They are used regularly when hitting a golf ball from the tee.
- the golf tee is approximately nail-shaped and has a head part, in the end face of which a depression is formed, in which the golf ball is placed.
- Such golf tees usually consist of wood or a plastic material. Since such golf tees are frequently hit and destroyed or at least damaged by the golf club when hitting a golf ball or are hurled so far that a search is not worthwhile, the golf tees or the remnants thereof usually remain on the golf course and must be removed Ground personnel are laboriously collected and disposed of. For this reason, it is known, for example from DE 196 02 528 AI, to produce golf tees from a decomposable fiber composite material which essentially consists of cotton, jute, flax or coconut fibers. Another organic golf tee that is made from an organic degradable pasta dough is apparent from DE 43 14 978 AI.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a golf tee which is more widely accepted when playing golf than is the case with the known golf tees.
- the golf tee according to the invention has an information carrier, preferably a note or the like, in a cavity, which is printed with information, for example in the form of a funny saying about golf or a horoscope.
- the note is released if the golf tee is destroyed when a golf ball is struck.
- the remnants of the golf tee are picked up by the golfer so that the exposed note can be accessed. In this way, the message of the note can be read on the one hand, and on the other hand the golfer can pick up and dispose of the remnants of the golf tee so that they do not pollute the tee and relieve the strain on the course staff.
- the golf tee is made in a manner known per se from a decomposable material, into which said cavity with the information carrier is molded.
- a piece of paper which is wound into a small roll and is contained in a cavity which extends in the longitudinal direction of the shaft of the golf tee is suitable as the information carrier.
- information is suitable as funny sayings, drawings, horoscopes and the like. It is also conceivable to use the information carrier additionally or exclusively as an advertising medium.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a golf tee
- Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section through the golf tee of Figure 1;
- FIG. 3 shows a golf tee damaged on the tee, the information carrier being visible
- Figure 4 shows an information carrier in the form of a slip of paper.
- a golf tee 1 known per se consists of a shaft part 3, at one end of which there is a tip 5, which makes it easier to press the golf tee 1 into the ground.
- the golf tee 1 On the side opposite the tip 5, the golf tee 1 has an approximately plate-shaped head part 7, in which there is a depression 9 in which a golf ball can be placed for teeing off.
- the golf tee can usually consist of a plastic material or of a biodegradable material, for example of natural fibers or the like.
- the cavity 11 preferably runs in the longitudinal direction of the shaft part 3, the information carrier 13 then in particular having the form of a slip of paper wound up into a small roll.
- the roller is introduced into the cavity 11 during the production of the golf tee 1.
- the golf tee 1 is damaged when it is knocked off, so that the head part 7 is separated or broken off from the shaft part 3 and the note contained in the cavity 11 is at least partially exposed, so that it can be removed from the shaft part 3 and read.
