2. Description of the Related Art In recent wood club heads, an ultra-hard and high-strength metal such as a titanium alloy is employed for the face member to increase the rebound coefficient of the face surface in order to increase the flight distance of the hit ball. It has been attempted to make the face thin so as to bend the face surface when hitting a ball and to use the repulsive force. In addition, the shaft has been lengthened to increase the head speed, and the head itself has been enlarged in metal hollow shell structure in order to expand the sweet area. Also, in manufacturing such a head, a face member made of a metal material different from the head body except for the face member constituting the face surface is usually joined to the head body by welding at the periphery thereof. I have.

As described above, a severe load which causes a large deflection on the face surface at the increased head speed due to the elongation of the shaft or the like is input to the head especially the face surface. As described above, since the head is manufactured by being welded to the opening of the bowl-shaped head body at the peripheral edge of the face surface, a large distortion is generated in the welded portion, and the energy of the energy hitting the ball is generated. Many are assumed to be absorbed by the distortion of the welded portion to reduce the deflection of the face surface to reduce the repulsive force of the face surface, and there is a concern that the durability of the welded portion may be reduced. Furthermore, in conventional products, the loft angle, roll, bulge radius, etc. of the head are often not set as designed at the time of production due to residual distortion and deformation of the welded part. The fact is that there is a great deal of variation.

FIG. 3 shows a cross section of the completed wood club head. The upper surface of the head body 1 in which the front shell 2 and the rear shell 3 are joined forms a crown 1A, and the lower surface is a sole 1B.
To form The joint between the face member 5 and the front shell 2 is indicated by reference numeral 7. In addition, reference numeral 8 denotes a junction between the front shell 2 and the rear shell 3. The total width from the front edge of the face surface 4 of the head body 1, ie, the leading edge 4A, to the rear end of the rear shell 3 was 87 mm, and the width from the front edge 4A to the center line of the joint 8 was 29 mm.

One-half. If the width from the front edge 4A to the joining portion 8 is smaller than one-fourth of the entire width, the joining portion 8 becomes too close to the face 4 and undesirably receives a large impact when hitting a ball. If the width up to the joint 8 is larger than one-third of the entire width, various troubles are likely to occur when performing hot forming at the front portion of the head, which is not preferable. The thickness of the face member 5 is 2.5 m.
m, the thickness of the crown 1A was 1.2 mm, the thickness of the sole 1B was 1.5 mm, and the face height was 45 mm.

As described above, according to the present invention, the front shell joined to the face member is subjected to hot forming, so that the residual distortion of the welded portion joined to the face member is reduced. The deformation is removed and the strength and durability of this part are increased. Therefore, the impact energy at the time of hitting the ball is less absorbed by the deformation or residual strain of the welded portion of the face member, the deflection of the face surface is increased, and as a result, the repulsive force of the face surface is increased and the ball is strongly hit. As a result, an increase in the flight distance can be obtained. In addition, since the durability of the welded portion between the face member and the front shell body is improved by hot forming, the thickness of the face surface and other parts of the head can be further reduced. , The rebound force can be increased by increasing the deflection of the face surface, the head can be enlarged without increasing the head weight, and the overall weight can be reduced even when a long shaft is attached. And contribute to the improvement of head speed.

The width from the front edge of the face surface of the head body to the joint between the front shell and the rear shell is one-fourth to three times the total width from the front edge of the face of the head body to the rear end of the rear shell.
In the head set to one-half, the joint portion takes a predetermined distance from the striking place, that is, the face surface, and the load of the striking load on the joint portion between the front shell and the rear shell is reduced, and the durability of the head is reduced. Improve the performance. Further, when the joint is welded, the accuracy of the loft angle, the roll, the bulge, and the like are improved by reducing the residual strain and deformation of the welded portion.
