Description

Tee for golf}

The present invention relates to a golf tee, more specifically, to stably support a golf ball for a tee shot of a tee ground, and to prevent head-up. And it is related to the golf tee that can adjust the exact timing to enable a more accurate tee shot.

Generally, a golf tee refers to a base on which a golf ball is placed for a tee shot of a tee ground, which is the first swing of each hole. It's a peg tee, but it's often called a tee, a tip, or a peg.

This golf tee is known to have been popular since Lowell of the United States originally devised a wooden peg-like thing. The golf tee is also similar to the nail and is made of wood, synthetic resin, metal, etc. Alternatively, shaft-shaped stems protrude downward from the bottom of a bowl-shaped head.

Therefore, the user sticks the stamp of the golf tee into the ground and puts the golf ball on the head fixed to protrude from the ground to a predetermined height to take a tee shot.

In addition, a golf tee used for permanently fixed at one point such as a mat is used to reduce the effort of dropping and re-determination of the golf tee, etc. This is usually made of soft rubber material, so ' It's called a rubber tee.

On the other hand, golf is known as a sport that the basic posture is important, in particular, tee shots are most often full swing to the longest club (club) to obtain the longest distance. Therefore, in the case of a beginner, the posture is often distorted, and one of them is a so-called head up phenomenon.

Head-up is a phenomenon in which the golfer lifts his head before hitting the golf ball to the club, and the overall body balance is broken. The main cause of miss shots by shifting the club face as well as the swing track is caused. do.

As a result, some golfers use a separate correction mechanism to prevent head-ups, but most of them temporarily fix a part of the body to forcibly restrain the head-ups, which is not a fundamental solution. Unnatural restraint of the part can cause the swing form to disperse.

In addition, the tee shot uses the majority of the body, including the arms, shoulders, waist, hips, legs, and knees, to perform a full swing from the back swing to the down swing.

Therefore, the impact timing of the backswing and downswing is important for a consistent and accurate tee shot. If the timing is not correct, the top of the golf ball can be rolled to the top of the golf ball and the topping and the golf ball roll. A slice or pull that is biased to the right or left of the aspherical line, or a duff that causes the club head to touch the ground before the golf ball, can cause a poor tee shot.

As a result, many beginner golfers are making great efforts to make efficient tee shots, but they are not making any progress. Therefore, they lose their interest in golf or injured golf elbows due to incorrect posture and excessive practice. Wear often appears.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide an effective method for preventing a head-up phenomenon and increasing accurate timing.

To this end, the present invention is to achieve the object by using a golf tee mobilized in the tee shot, not only to support the golf ball stably but also to prevent head-up and learn the appropriate timing to enable a more accurate tee shot The purpose is to provide a golf tee.

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, with reference to drawings, the preferable aspect of this invention is looked at in detail.

Prior to the full description, the golf tee according to the present invention is to support the golf ball as a function of the general as well as to prevent the head-up as a unique function of the present invention, characterized in that to learn the correct timing To this end, providing a head of a predetermined height on which a golf ball can be placed provides a separate light emitting means for emitting light toward the user at a position adjacent to the golf ball.

As a result, the golf tee according to the present invention focuses the user's gaze on the golf ball through the light generated from the light emitting means to prevent head-up and learn the correct timing through the regular flashing of the light emitting means.

At this time, the golf pins satisfying the technical idea of the present invention can be divided into several embodiments according to the purpose of use or a specific configuration, and the like. Instead of looking at the details in the first embodiment, other embodiments mainly look at the differences.

First Example

1 to 3 are views showing a golf tee according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 corresponds to a perspective view, Figure 2 corresponds to an exploded perspective view, Figure 3 corresponds to a cross-sectional view.

As can be seen, the golf tee according to the first embodiment of the present invention has a head 62 on which a golf ball is placed, a first stamp 64 protruding downward from the bottom thereof, and a first stamp 70 seated on the ground. And a plate-shaped support member provided with a predetermined light emitting means.

Looking at each of them in detail as follows.

First, the head 62 has a concave plate or bowl shape to be convenient for use as the portion where the golf ball is placed. At this time, the diameter, height, and the like of the head 62 may be appropriately adjusted within a range suitable for golf regulations, and made of hard materials such as wood, synthetic resin, metal, or soft materials such as rubber, and the like, and the first stamp 64 to be described later. It can be achieved in one piece.

Next, the first stamp 64 protrudes downward from the bottom surface of the head 62 to support the head 62 and the golf ball mounted thereon, and has a straight shaft shape. At this time, the diameter, height, and the like of the first stamp 64 may be appropriately adjusted within a range suitable for golf regulations, and, like the head 62, made of hard materials such as wood, synthetic resin, metal, or soft materials such as rubber. Can lose.

Hereinafter, for convenience, the head 62 and the first stamp 64 will be referred to as the support part 60.

Next, the support member is mounted on the ground to support the first stamp 64 of the support 60, while providing a predetermined light emitting means for emitting light toward the user.

At this time, in particular, the support member of the golf tee according to the first embodiment of the present invention is composed of a bar (bar: 70) of the stripe (stripe) form in close contact with the ground and the first stamp 64 is coupled to one side upper surface On the other side of the upper surface is a predetermined light emitting means LED 72 is installed therein, the battery 84 and the driving circuit 64 for driving the LED 72 is embedded.

In more detail, the width and height of the bar 70 are as small as possible to carry, but the length of the bar 70 is coupled to the first stamp 64 on one side of the upper surface of the bar 70 and the LED on the other side of the edge. On the premise that the 72 is installed, it is suitable that the LED 72 is not blocked by the golf ball in the standing position for the tee shot. And the material may be made of hard electrically insulated such as wood, synthetic resin and / or soft insulated electrically such as rubber. In this case, the material of the bar 70 does not necessarily need to be limited to any one type as long as it exhibits insulation property.

In addition, a first stamp 64 of the support part 60 is coupled to one upper surface of the bar 70, and an LED 72 is installed on another upper surface of the bar 70 to emit light with driving power of the battery 84.

At this time, preferably, the first stamp 64 may be detachably coupled to one upper surface of the bar 70.

To this end, a conductive magnetic 66 is embedded in the bottom of the first stamp 64 to be exposed from the bottom of the first stamp 64, and an upper surface of the bar 70 may be connected to the LED 72 through the battery 84. The first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 of the magnetic body that are electrically connected to each other are exposed. As a result, when the first stamp 64 is placed at the corresponding position, the first stamp 64 is erectly coupled by the magnetic attraction between the conductive magnetic 66 and the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76. The first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 are electrically connected so that the LED 72 is turned on.

Accordingly, the conductive magnetic 66 of the first stamp 64 serves to detachably support the support 60 from the bar 70 and also serves as a switch for blinking the LED 72.

At this time, the reason why the support 60 is separated from the bar 70 as in the former is to prevent the support 60 from being damaged from the impact caused by the swing. Desorption from 70 can be prevented from damage.

In addition, when the support 60 is separated from the bar 70 as in the latter case, the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 are electrically shorted so that the LED 72 is turned off. It is to prevent.

That is, the user using the golf tee according to the first embodiment of the present invention puts the golf ball on the head 62 and takes a standing posture to watch the golf ball, at this time, the conductive magnetic of the first stamp 64 66 electrically connects the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 so that the LED 72 is turned on, and the golf ball and the light of the LED 72 come into the user's eyes. Therefore, the user swings while watching the golf ball and the LED 72, and when the LED 72 is turned off after impact, the head is naturally prevented through the process of looking up the direction in which the golf ball is flying by lifting the head.

In this case, if necessary, a separate driving circuit 86 may be mounted in the bar 70 to allow the LED 72 to blink constantly, and the user may determine the timing from the backswing to the downswing based on the number of blinking LEDs. As can be learned, furthermore, the driving circuit 86 may adjust the flashing period of the LED 72 quickly or slowly according to the intention of the user, thereby allowing the user to freely adjust the timing desired by the individual.

In addition, the golf tee according to the first embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that a second second stamp 80 protrudes downward from the bottom of the bar 70.

At this time, the second stamp 80 is inserted into the ground and the bar 70 is in close contact with the ground and at the same time substantially supporting the load of the support 60 and the golf ball, the end of the sharply tapered straight shaft shape Can be represented. In addition, the diameter, height, etc. of the second stamp 80 may be appropriately adjusted within a range suitable for golf regulations, and the material is made of hard wood, synthetic resin, metal, or the like.

Furthermore, the second stamp 80 may be detachably coupled to the bottom of the bar 70 so that the battery 84 may be embedded therein.

To this end, a cylindrical first flange 77 protrudes downward from the bottom of the bar 70 to form a first thread 78 along an outer surface thereof, and a cylindrical first flange 77 is formed from an upper surface of the second stem 80. The second flange 81 protrudes upward to form a second thread 82 along the inner surface, and a separate battery hole for mounting the battery 84 is inserted into the second flange 81 of the second stamp 80. Indented.

Accordingly, the second stem 80 is detachably coupled to the bar 70 through screwing of the first and second threads 78 and 82, and the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 are springs ( S) or the like may be connected to the battery 84.

At this time, the first flange 78 is preferably as hard as possible, it may be made of the same wood or synthetic resin hard as the bar 70, if the bar 70 is soft, such as rubber inserts in the manufacturing of the bar 70 It may also be made of a separate metal material inserted. Here, the insert refers to a method of inserting metal parts of different materials in a mold and casting the same together in a die casting process using a mold, which is a general technical description, and thus a detailed description thereof is omitted.

Although not shown in the drawings, the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 connected to the battery are electrically connected to the LEDs 72, respectively, and wirings for this purpose are properly disposed in the bar 70. Can be.

It looks at how to use the golf tee according to the first embodiment of the present invention described above.

First, the user screw-couples the second stamp 80 to the bottom of the bar 70, and then inserts the second stamp 80 into the ground on the tee ground to bring the bar 70 into close contact with the ground.

At this time, the battery 84 is mounted in the second stamp 80, and by combining the second stamp 80, the battery 84 is connected to the first and second metal electrodes via a spring S or the like. 74, 76, LED 72 and drive circuit 86 are electrically connected respectively. However, since the first and second metal electrodes 74 and 76 are electrically shorted, the LED 72 is still turned off.

Subsequently, the user stands and fixes the first stamp 64 at one edge of the upper surface of the bar, whereby the LED 72 installed at the other edge of the upper surface of the bar 70 is turned on.

At this time, if necessary, the LED 72 may blink at a predetermined time interval.

Subsequently, the user places the golf ball on the head 62, grabs the club, takes a standing position, and looks at the golf ball.

Accordingly, the light of the LED comes with the golf ball in the user's field of view, the user swings while watching the LED 72 and the golf ball together. Accordingly, the golf ball flies in the target direction and the support part 60 is detached from the bar 70 and the LED 72 is turned off. After confirming that the LED 72 is turned off, the golf ball is lifted up and the golf ball is flying. The head-up is naturally prevented by looking at and during this process, the user can learn the appropriate timing based on the number of blinks of the LED 72 and the like.

2nd Example

That is, in the present embodiment, the support member is a mat 90 that the user stands on, while the second stamp (see 80 of FIGS. 1 to 3) is omitted so that the battery 84 is embedded in the mat 90. In this case, the head 62 and the first stamp 64 may be made of a soft material such as rubber to be permanently fixed to the mat 90.

Therefore, the user puts a golf ball on the head 62 and stands on the mat 90 to practice the tee shot. During this process, the LED 72, like the first embodiment, prevents head-up and learns proper timing at the same time. Although the LED 72 is not turned off at the same time as the impact, unlike the previous, the user can watch the LED 72 and the golf ball while swinging to prevent head-up, and the LED 72 blinks. You can check and adjust your swing timing by the number of times.
