Abstract

A golf club head includes a club head body and a plate-shaped component arranged on the club head body. The plate-shaped component includes a plurality of carbon fiber layers superimposed on each other and impregnated with a thermosetting carbon fiber resin. The thermosetting carbon fiber resin impregnated in the carbon fiber layers contains 0.01wt% to 5wt% carbon nanotubes. Due to the high quality factor (Q Factor) of carbon nanotubes, the plate-shaped component can produce a louder hitting sound when hitting a ball and the production cost is lower than that of a thermoplastic carbon fiber composite material. Thereby, the dilemma of low hitting sound and high production cost in the conventional technology can be overcome.

Description

高爾夫球桿頭golf club head

本發明是有關於一種球具,特別是指一種高爾夫球桿頭。The present invention relates to a golf equipment, in particular to a golf club head.

傳統的高爾夫球桿頭是以全金屬製成,有著堅固且擊球聲音響亮之優點,但也有著整體較為沉重的缺點,為了克服此一缺陷,目前有以碳纖維複合材料取代高爾夫球桿頭的頂蓋或底板的技術,透過碳纖維複合材料質輕且堅固的特性,可以降低高爾夫球桿頭的重量,並能產生碳纖維紋路的特殊視覺效果;然而,熱固型碳纖維複合材料(Thermoset)固然有質輕及堅固之特性,但也有著打擊聲音低沉不結實之缺點。現時市面上出現改以熱塑性碳纖維複合材料(Thermoplastic)製成頂蓋或底板的高爾夫球桿頭,雖然能改善前述打擊聲音不佳之問題,但卻有著價格高昂而導致生產成本過高的致命傷,因此仍有改善之空間。The traditional golf club head is made of all metal, which has the advantages of firmness and loud hitting sound, but also has the disadvantage of being relatively heavy as a whole. In order to overcome this defect, there are currently carbon fiber composite materials instead of golf club heads. The technology of the top cover or bottom plate can reduce the weight of the golf club head through the light and strong characteristics of carbon fiber composite materials, and can produce special visual effects of carbon fiber lines; however, thermoset carbon fiber composite materials (Thermoset) certainly have It is light and strong, but it also has the disadvantage of deep and weak hitting sound. Currently on the market, there are golf club heads made of thermoplastic carbon fiber composite material (Thermoplastic) to make the top cover or the bottom plate. There is still room for improvement.

因此,本發明之目的,即在提供一種打擊聲音響亮且生產成本低的高爾夫球桿頭。Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a golf club head with loud hitting sound and low production cost.

於是,本發明高爾夫球桿頭,包含一球頭本體,及一設置於該球頭本體上的板狀部件。該板狀部件包括複數彼此相互疊合且含浸熱固性碳纖維樹脂的碳纖維層,該等碳纖維層所含浸的熱固性碳纖維樹脂含有0.01wt%至5wt%的奈米碳管。Therefore, the golf club head of the present invention includes a ball head body and a plate-like component disposed on the ball head body. The plate-like component includes a plurality of carbon fiber layers superimposed on each other and impregnated with a thermosetting carbon fiber resin. The thermosetting carbon fiber resin impregnated by the carbon fiber layers contains 0.01wt% to 5wt% of carbon nanotubes.

本發明之功效在於:透過奈米碳管具有較高之品質因子(Q Factor)的特性,使該板狀部件在打擊時能產生較響亮的擊球聲音,且其生產成本較熱塑性碳纖維複合材料低,克服習知技術需在擊球聲音低沉及高生產成本中二擇一之困境。The effect of the present invention is: through the characteristics of higher quality factor (Q Factor) of carbon nanotubes, the plate-shaped part can produce a louder hitting sound when hitting, and its production cost is lower than that of thermoplastic carbon fiber composite materials. Low, to overcome the conventional technology need to choose between low sound and high production costs.

參閱圖1、圖2,及圖3,為本發明高爾夫球桿頭之一實施例,包含一球頭本體1,及一設置於該球頭本體1上的板狀部件2。該板狀部件2包括複數彼此相互疊合且含浸熱固性碳纖維樹脂21的碳纖維層22。該板狀部件2是由該等碳纖維層22經熱壓成型硬化後而製得,且厚度約0.4mm至0.8mm。該等碳纖維層22為單向碳纖維布(UD,unidirectional)或3K碳纖維布。該等碳纖維層22所含浸的熱固性碳纖維樹脂21為環氧樹脂(Epoxy),且含有0.01wt%至5wt%的奈米碳管(CNT,Carbon Nanotube)。在圖1中,該板狀部件2以頂蓋的方式呈現,但實際上該板狀部件2也可視需求而如圖3所示地為底板。Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 , and FIG. 3 , it is an embodiment of the golf club head of the present invention, which includes a ball head body 1 and a plate-like component 2 arranged on the ball head body 1 . The plate-like component 2 includes a plurality of carbon fiber layers 22 stacked on each other and impregnated with a thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 . The plate-like component 2 is made of the carbon fiber layers 22 after hot pressing and hardening, and has a thickness of about 0.4 mm to 0.8 mm. The carbon fiber layers 22 are unidirectional carbon fiber cloth (UD, unidirectional) or 3K carbon fiber cloth. The thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 impregnated in the carbon fiber layers 22 is epoxy resin (Epoxy), and contains 0.01wt% to 5wt% of carbon nanotubes (CNT, Carbon Nanotube). In FIG. 1 , the plate-shaped component 2 is shown as a top cover, but in fact, the plate-shaped component 2 can also be a bottom plate as shown in FIG. 3 according to requirements.

以下是本發明的實驗例。The following are experimental examples of the present invention.

本實驗例中,是比較三個測試組及二個對照組在擊球時所產生之聲音的頻率,藉此了解本實施例在擊球聲響上的表現,其中,測試組皆為本實施例的高爾夫球桿頭,差異在熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中所添加的奈米碳管含量多寡,而對照組1是全金屬球桿頭,對照組2為頂蓋以一般無添加奈米碳管的熱固性碳纖維複合材料製成的球桿頭。In this experimental example, the frequency of the sound produced by three test groups and two control groups when hitting the ball is compared, so as to understand the performance of this embodiment on the sound of hitting the ball. Among them, the test groups are all this embodiment. The difference lies in the content of carbon nanotubes added in the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21, while the control group 1 is an all-metal club head, and the control group 2 is a top cover with generally no carbon nanotubes added. Club head made of carbon fiber composite material.

表一 實驗組別 熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中所添加之奈米碳管含量 頻   率(Hz) 測試組1 0.1wt% 4,272 測試組2 0.5wt% 4,036 測試組3 4wt% 4,015 對照組1(全金屬) 0 4,365 對照組2(熱固性) 0 3,887 Table I Experimental group Added carbon nanotube content in thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 Frequency (Hz) Test group 1 0.1wt% 4,272 Test group 2 0.5wt% 4,036 Test group 3 4wt% 4,015 Control group 1 (all metal) 0 4,365 Control group 2 (thermosetting) 0 3,887

由上方表一所示可清楚得知,本實施例透過奈米碳管高品質因子(Q Factor)之特性,使得所製得之高爾夫球桿頭的測試組1-3在擊球時所測得之聲響頻率均僅略遜於全金屬高爾夫球桿頭,同時均明顯優於頂蓋以熱固型碳纖維複合材料所製成之高爾夫球桿頭,因此本實施例確實能達成改善擊球聲響之功效,且成本低於熱塑性碳纖維複合材料,因此在市場競爭力上具有相當之優勢。需要特別說明的是,表一中並未提供熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中所添加之奈米碳管含量超過5wt%的實驗數據,其原因是當熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中所添加之奈米碳管含量超過5wt%時,會造成熱固性碳纖維樹脂21整體的流動性降低,使得有部分區域的碳纖維層22無法含浸到熱固性碳纖維樹脂21而導致乾纖現象發生,進而難以成型出高爾夫球桿頭之板狀部件2,所以當熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中所添加之奈米碳管含量達到5wt%時已經是成型的極限值。As shown in Table 1 above, it can be clearly seen that the characteristics of the high quality factor (Q Factor) of the carbon nanotubes in this embodiment make the test group 1-3 of the produced golf club head measured when hitting the ball. The sound frequency obtained is only slightly lower than that of an all-metal golf club head, and is obviously better than that of a golf club head made of thermosetting carbon fiber composite material. Therefore, this embodiment can indeed improve the sound of hitting the ball. The effect, and the cost is lower than thermoplastic carbon fiber composite materials, so it has a considerable advantage in market competitiveness. It should be noted that the experimental data that the content of carbon nanotubes added in the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 exceeds 5wt% is not provided in Table 1. The reason is that when the content of carbon nanotubes added in the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 exceeds When it is 5wt%, it will cause the overall fluidity of the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 to decrease, so that the carbon fiber layer 22 in some areas cannot be impregnated with the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21, resulting in dry fiber phenomenon, and it is difficult to form the plate-shaped parts of the golf club head. 2. Therefore, when the content of carbon nanotubes added to the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 reaches 5wt%, it is already the limit value of molding.

綜上所述,該板狀部件2透過複數彼此相互疊合之碳纖維層22所含浸的熱固性碳纖維樹脂21中含有0.01wt%至5wt%的奈米碳管,使該高爾夫球桿頭能具備較清脆響亮的擊球聲響,且其生產成本較以熱塑性碳纖維複合材料低,克服習知技術需在擊球聲音低沉及高生產成本中二擇一之困境,故確實能達成本發明之目的。To sum up, the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 impregnated with carbon nanotubes in an amount of 0.01wt% to 5wt% is contained in the thermosetting carbon fiber resin 21 of the plate member 2 through a plurality of carbon fiber layers 22 stacked on each other, so that the golf club head can have a relatively high performance. Crisp and loud hitting sound, and its production cost is lower than that of thermoplastic carbon fiber composite materials, which overcomes the dilemma of low hitting sound and high production cost in the conventional technology, so the purpose of the present invention can be really achieved.

惟以上所述者,僅為本發明之實施例而已,當不能以此限定本發明實施之範圍,凡是依本發明申請專利範圍及專利說明書內容所作之簡單的等效變化與修飾,皆仍屬本發明專利涵蓋之範圍內。But what is described above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and should not limit the scope of the present invention.
