Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention is a mark storage device for clubs used for golf.

To be more specific, a recess is provided at the top of the club, especially the putter, to store the mark so that the mark can be popped out with one touch when using, and the mark can be securely fixed to the top of the putter when not in use. The present invention relates to a mark storage device for a golf club that is not easily lost.

(Prior Art) In golf, when a ball that rides on the green is picked up by an individual player so that it does not interfere with the play (putt) of another player, the ball is released on the line of ball rolling. Instead, a coin-shaped small chip, a so-called mark 20 as shown in FIG.
It was marked so that the player's ball position could be easily confirmed.

However, this operation is carried out for each hole, and the athlete keeps the mark 20 in a pocket of clothes and takes it out each time, or the mark 20 formed as shown in FIG. The leg portion 21 is inserted into the stopper hole 23 provided at the upper end portion of the grip 22 in the putter, and the mark 20 is attached each time.
I had to pull out the leg 21 of the and mark it.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) The former mark described above is small, and is often lost during operation because it is often put on or taken off from clothes during competition.

Further, the latter mark has a drawback that it may be lost when it is hit by another object or moved from the stop hole due to an impact when the putter is carried or stored in a bag.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a concave portion for accommodating a mark is provided at the upper end portion of a club, especially a putter, so that the mark can be detached by popping it outward with one touch during use. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a mark storing device for a golf club, which is securely fixed to the end portion of the club when not in use so as not to be easily lost.

(Means for Solving the Problem) Means of the present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object is to embed a head at one end of a shaft and a grip at the other end of the shaft for embedding at the end of the grip. Then, a main body for accommodating the mark in the concave portion of the end edge and a mark holding body which is inserted into the main body and protrudes and retracts in the concave portion at the outer end are attached, and a spring is linked to the inner end and the mark is held by the spring. A movable rod that is biased toward one side, a stop pin that projects toward the circumferential side of the movable rod and engages with the elongated hole of the main body, and a member that abuts on the stop pin and holds the mark holder in the recess. The mark accommodating device for a golf club is provided with a retaining elastic piece and a means for allowing the retaining elastic piece to escape outward in cooperation with the stop pin when the moving rod is moved inward.

(Operation) The mark storing device for a golf club of the present invention configured as described above has the following operation.

The mark is attracted and held by a mark holder such as a magnet, and is made of a magnetic material.

First, when the mark holder is accommodated in the main body recess fitted to the grip, the retaining pin protruding from the moving rod is engaged with the locking elastic piece by the spring force and is pushed outward. Since the movement is restricted, the mark is positioned and does not protrude from the upper edge of the recess, and the mark is held by the holder. (See FIGS. 1 to 3) In this state, when the mark holder is pushed inward with a finger in the upper end of the golf club mark accommodating device, that is, the concave portion of the main body fitted to the grip, the mark is held against the spring. The moving rod of the body descends as shown in FIG.

At the same time, the releasing means of the locking elastic piece pushes the locking elastic piece in cooperation with the moving rod to release it outward, so that when the finger is released from the mark holder, the spring pushes the moving rod outward. As shown in FIG. 5, the mark holder protrudes from the recess, so that the mark can be easily removed and used as shown by the phantom line in FIG.

After use, in the state shown in FIG. 5, a mark is attached to the holding body and held by the mark, and when the mark holding body is pushed into the recess, the moving rod lowers against the spring, and the moving rod is stopped. Since the pin engages with and is locked by the locking elastic piece, as shown in FIG. 2, the mark holder is housed in the concave portion and is positioned below the upper end surface thereof, so that the mark holder can be used in the club. When you hit the mark, the mark you hold will not get in the way.

(Embodiment) Next, an embodiment of a golf club mark storage device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, A is a putter used as a putt on a golf club, especially on the green. A head 2 is attached to one end, that is, a lower portion of a shaft 1 having a predetermined length, and the other end of the shaft 1 is adapted to be gripped by a hand. A grip 3 having a thickness is provided.
