Description

Distance measuring aiming device

The present invention relates to an aiming device for measuring the distance between the ball and the target point (hole) by aiming the target point (hole) at the position of the ball in order to know the actual distance between the ball and the hole in a golf game, Preferably, the present invention relates to a distance measuring aiming device having a mirror functioning as a scale and an aiming hole functioning as a scale, and precisely aiming at a target point to measure an accurate actual distance.

In general, amateur golfers perform shots using the help of a caddy and distance piles in the golf course when they reach the hole cup on the green during a golf game.

However, it is often difficult to reach the green due to wind effects and hitting mistakes, and there is no distance pile within the golf course within 100m or 50m.

Therefore, approach distance and putting distance must rely on the sense of distance perceived by the individual's experience, so amateur golfers see a lot of distance mistakes because the distance calculation is inaccurate in approach and putting.

In order to solve the above problems, various devices capable of measuring a distance between a ball and a hole have been provided in the related art. For example, a conventional golf distance measuring system and a measuring method using a GPS system include a GPS system (Global Positioning). Using the system, the distance between the current location and the target point is widely used. In particular, the distance measurement method using various GPS systems is widely used as a way to notify the golfer of the distance to the green of the golf course. It is used.

Such a distance measuring method using a conventional GPS system, which is disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-0970252, Korean Patent Publication No. 2011-0106188, and Korean Patent Publication No. 2011-0032760, is a position coordinate value (latitude and longitude coordinate) of a golfer that is normally received by a GPS system. Alternatively, the method simply calculates a straight line distance on a horizontal plane using X, Y coordinate values and position coordinate values (latitude and longitude coordinates or X, Y coordinate values) of the green of the golf course.

Therefore, even when the angle of inclination exists in the position of the golfer and the position of the green, there is a technical limitation that only tells the straight distance, not the actual distance.

That is, when the angle of inclination exists between the position of the golfer and the position of the green, the actual distance is not measured, but the linear distance on the horizontal plane is measured, thereby having a large distance error in the distance information transmitted to the golfer.

This distance error is, for example, when the angle of inclination between the golfer's position and the green position is about 20 degrees and the actual distance is 500m, the error of the distance is calculated as 500-500cos and the error exceeds 30m.

Furthermore, at close range, that is, close to the green, for example, a distance of about 30m, the error rate between the actual distance and the measured distance due to the inherent positional error of the GPS value, that is, about 10m radius, in addition to the error due to the tilt. Becomes large.

Accordingly, the distance measuring device using the conventional GPS system does not provide a reliable distance value in golf play.

In addition, for precise distance measurement, the device must aim at the exact target point. However, since the conventional distance measuring device relies on the map and the GPS system of the golf course, the aiming device may be omitted or may not be accurate. In addition, there was a problem that the volume of the device is large.

A value is measured and output, and a second tilt angle value, which is a tilt angle value of the device that is tilted as the user aims the top of the flagpole through the device, is output.

At this time, the memory unit 12 stores one or more pieces of height information among the sitting key information and line key information of the golfer (user) and the flagpole height information.

The distance measuring unit 13 of the main body 10 calls the used sitting key information or line key information determined by the user's selection or setting among the golfer's height information stored in the memory unit 12, and temporarily stored. Using the two inclination angle values and the height information, the actual distance from the current position (ball) to the target point (hole) is calculated through Equation 1 below.
