Description

Transportable training device of the golf game.

The present invention relates to a transportable device that is intended to allow Golf game training.

As is known, the game of golf has spread notably in recent years for the interest it offers so much from the point of view of fun game like exercise physical.

An introduction phase and also of refinement of the golf game lies in training and player practice, which can be partly done in areas of training adjacent to the golf course but not part of of the field circuit or in completely isolated areas of the golf course. To carry out these practices, the use of dimensioning areas in which the player, in a fixed position rehearses blows to the place the ball on a small bounded area, throwing it in different playing conditions, different clubs, etc.

The present invention is intended to give know a special device for training the game of golf that presents sensitive characteristics of novelty and activity inventive, allowing the player to practice in the play in variable places at will and without having to have of real grass.

To achieve these goals the device object of the present invention consists essentially of a body prismatic shape with a very elongated triangular base, that is, a general flat wedge structure, with a very small angle in the edge of the acute part of the wedge, being able to be realized said device in any appropriate material, preferably lightweight, such as wood, plastic material, sheet metal, etc., presenting its upper face, inclined with respect to the plane horizontal on which it will settle, an appropriate finish for deposit the ball for the golf game using the little ones usual supports. The device object of the present invention  It will be equipped with handles for easy transport and support feet in its lower part. Under these conditions the device may be installed in any desired place, requiring only a small enough free space for the launch of the balls.

Given the uniform characteristics and controlled from the face or upper surface of the object device of the present invention, the launch characteristics may be constant and excessive wear will not occur in an area of very concrete grass, as usually occurs in areas of practices currently known.

In a preferred version of the invention, the prismatic body will present a flat extension in its start, that is, in the lower part of the wedge arranged on the floor for use, in addition to the inclined part, and a cut flat surface at its highest part.

In addition, the wedge-shaped structure will allow more accurately mimic the actual striking conditions of the ball on a real golf course, where very often the ground It forms a certain slope with respect to the horizontal.

In addition, the wedge angle can be changed with ease by having several devices with different angles, which will allow rehearsing the game in varying conditions.

While they are not detailed here description, the invention could also comprise means for vary the angle of the upper launch face with respect to the base, in which case the upper face would be articulated with with respect to the base, providing any means conventional to vary the angle.

For your best understanding they are attached to title an explanatory example, but not a limitation, some drawings of a device for practicing the golf game made according with the present invention.

Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a device made in accordance with the present invention.

Figures 2, 3 and 4 show paths seen in elevation from one end, side elevation and elevation from the side frontal.

Figure 5 shows a plan view of the own device.

Figure 6 schematically shows the use of the device object of the present invention.

Figure 7 shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention with a flat area at the beginning of the face inclined launch and another small flat area in the most part high of it.

As can be seen in the figures, the device for practicing golf game object of the present invention comprises a body (1) of general prismatic structure with triangular bases, such as the base (2) represented in the figures, presenting the device one of the main faces (3) equipped with a specific surface finish that allows achieve adequate characteristics for the support placement of the ball and that is also resistant to wear, being able to remain said face made by a cover sheet of the device itself. The opposite side of the use, which has been designated with the numeral (4) in the figures, will remain adjacent to the ground separating from it eventually by small legs such as (5), (6), (7) and (8) arranged near the corners of the device on the underside of it.

The angle of the upper face (3) with respect to the horizontal may be variable, which will allow easily from several training devices with different angles to mimic different test conditions.

For better device handling this present handles such as (9) and (10) of form and arrangement variables, which will allow for easy clamping and transport of the device to the place intended for testing, and can be stored later in an appropriate place.

The upper launch face (3) may remain articulated on the base, so that by a simple internal device, stops, etc. you can vary the angle of said launch surface (3) with respect to the horizontal.

As shown in Figure 6, the device (1) will be arranged on the ground (11) by means of legs that he himself has, placing himself in the right place of said device on the upper face (3) thereof a ball (12) on a support (13) of the usual type in this game. The player (14) you can easily exercise the throws of the ball with a determined slope that allows to imitate the game conditions real.

In the preferred version of Figure 7, the face upper launch (3) extends in its start in an area flat (15), of variable length, equipped with the same finish superficial than the launch surface and that will allow launch from a flat surface but must overcome the unevenness of the surface (3). In the upper part It has another small flat area (16).

The covering of the upper face (3) will be variable rate, being able to be constituted by a fragment of the called `` artificial grass '' or any other coating that is appropriate for the use of the device subject to the invention.

Everything that does not affect, alter, change or modify the essence of the described device, it will be variable at Effects of the present invention.
