Abstract
A training device for pushing a golf ball comprises a tilt ball seat, a grass pad, and a multiple layer paddle. The tilt ball seat has a slope surface at the upper end thereof. A front end of the slope surface is formed with a ball hole; and a lower end of the tilt ball seat is installed with a multiple layer paddle the length of which is changeable. The grass pad is a long extending piece; and a front end thereof is formed with an opening with respect to the ball hole of the tilt ball seat. Therefore, the grass pad is adhered to the upper end of the tilt ball seat and then extended to a selected length to the rear side. If necessary, the height of the multiple layer paddle is adjustable for changing the slope of the tilt ball seat.
Description
- The present invention relates to a training device for pushing a golf ball comprising a tilt ball seat, a grass pad, and a multiple layer paddle, wherein the length of the multiple layer paddle and the slope of the tilt ball seat are adjustable.
- The prior art golf training devices have many kinds, but most of these devices are designed for emitting a ball or beating a ball, thereby, the user may train to play golf. However, in general, the golf training device is formed by a fixed tilt ball path and a grass pad (such manmade grass sheet or a nap sheet) and a ball hole is formed on the path for pushing a ball into the hole. Thereby, the user may train indoors. However, the whole design is dull without any vivid effect.
- Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a training device for pushing a golf club comprising a tilt ball seat, a grass pad, and a multiple layer paddle. The tilt ball seat has a slope surface and a ball hole at the upper end thereof. The lower end of the tilt ball seat is mounted with a multiple layer paddle with an adjustable length. The length of the multiple layer paddle and the slope of the tilt ball seat are adjustable so that a golf ball can be pushed into the ball hole. Thus, a training effect of different hardness is present. Another object of the present invention is to provide a training device for pushing a golf ball, wherein two sides of the ball holes of the tilt ball seat are installed with respective sliding tracks, or the sliding track is installed with a movable blade. Thereby, despite of whether the golf ball is pushed into the ball hole along the slope surface, it can roll out from of the sliding tracks, or the ball out of the sliding track can pass through the movable blade so as to present a vivid effect.
- The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.
- FIG. 1 is an assembled perspective view of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is assembled perspective view of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the multiple layer paddle in the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a partial assembled perspective view of the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is an assembled schematic view of the movable blade in the present invention.
- FIG. 6 shows a schematic view of the slope in the first section of the present invention.
- FIG. 7 shows a schematic view of the slope in the second section of the present invention.
- FIG. 8 shows a schematic view of the slope in the third section of the present invention.
- In order that those skilled in the art can further understand the present invention, a description will be described in the following in details. However, these descriptions and the appended drawings are only used to cause those skilled in the art to understand the objects, features, and characteristics of the present invention, but not to used to confine the scope and spirit of the present invention defined in the appended claims.
- Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the training device for pushing a golf ball of the present invention is illustrated herein. The training device for pushing a golf ball in the present invention includes a
tilt ball seat 1, agrass pad 2, and amultiple layer paddle 3. - The
tilt ball seat 1 has aslope surface 11 at the upper end thereof. The front end of theslope surface 11 is formed with aball hole 12. Two sides thereof have respective slidingtracks sliding track 13 is communicated with theball hole 12. The upper end thereof is placed with a bridge piece 131 (in order to avoid the ball from collapsing as the ball rolls through the grass pad 2). Another slidingtrack 14 is communicated with an outer section of theball hole 12.Movable blades 15 are installed in thesliding tracks ball hole 12 or other sections along theslope surface 11, and then rolls out automatically through thesliding tracks movable blade 15 at one side can be turned. At least one receivinggroove 16 is installed at a higher place on the front end of theslope surface 11 for placing a golf ball. The lower end of thetilt ball seat 1 is installed with amultiple layer paddle 3 the length of which is changeable. - The
grass pad 2 is long extending piece and is made by manmade grass sheet or nap sheet. The surface thereof can be properly formed with textures or with sections for representing the scores. The front end thereof is formed with an opening 21 with respect to theball hole 12 of thetilt ball seat 1. Therefore, thegrass pad 2 can be adhered to the upper end of thetilt ball seat 1 and then extended to a selected length. - The
multiple layer paddle 3 illustrated in FIG. 3 is formed by pivotally connected a plurality ofplates plates pivotal portions pivotal portions first plate 31 is embedded into the inner wall of thetilt ball seat 1 by astud 312. Thesecond plate 32 is installed with at least oneclip 323 at one lateral surface. The lower wall thereof has arecess 324. The center portion and two laterals of thethird plate 33 are installed with an extendingpiece 333 with aninserting hole 332 and astopper 334. One lateral surface is installed with at least oneclamping hole 335. Thereby, in general, thetilt ball seat 1 can be stored in thetilt ball seat 1 by themultiple layer paddle 3. Theinserting hole 332 of the extendingpiece 333 is engaged with theinserting post 17 in thetilt ball seat 1. If necessary, the height of themultiple layer paddle 3 is adjusted for changing the slope of thetilt ball seat 1 so that the golf can be pushed into theball hole 12 along the slope surface with a selected height. Therefore, training effect in different conditions is presented in the present invention. - The movable blades of the
sliding tracks slope surface 11 of the tilt ball seat 1 (referring to FIG. 5) may be formed as a free turnable condition as the golf passes therethrough. Despite of whether the golf ball is pushed into theball hole 12 along theslope surface 11, it can roll out from of thesliding tracks movable blade 15 or the sliding tracks can be painted with different colors so as to present a vivid effect. - Furthermore, in the design of the
multiple layer paddle 3, in general, themultiple layer paddle 3 can be stored in thetilt ball seat 1, such as the first sectional slope (slope of the slope surface 11) shown in FIG. 6. Or thefirst plate 31 and thesecond plate 32 can be pulled out together so as to be formed as a second sectional slope (see FIG. 7). Then, thethird plate 33 is buckled with thebuckle 323 of thesecond plate 32 through theclamping hole 335, and thus, the third plate will not be opened. Further, thethird plate 33 can be opened fully so that the twostopper 334 exactly resists against thesecond plate 32 and the extendingplate 333 passes through therecess 324 of thesecond plate 32. As a result, the third section slope illustrated in FIG. 8 is formed, and thus, the height of themultiple layer paddle 3 is adjustable so as to change the slope of thetilt ball seat 1 for acquiring the effect of pushing a golf ball in different hardness and accuracy. - However, in the aforesaid
multiple layer paddle 3, the number of sections is selectable and the structure of pivotal connection can be modified as desired. - The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
