Embodiment Construction

[0017] Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0018] Figure 1A ~ 1C Shown is a golf club head constructed from an embodiment of the present invention. Such as Figure 1A ~ 1C As shown, the golf club head of this embodiment has a hollow structure, and among the neck 1, the face 2, the sole 3, the crown 4, and the side 5, the crown 4 is made of fiber-reinforced plastic (hatched portion), The remainder is made of metal. That is, the metal shell member X constituting the neck 1, the face 2, the bottom 3, and the side 5 has a hole X1 (through hole) at a position corresponding to the crown 4, and on the crown 4, the There is a fiber-reinforced plastic casing member Y covering at least the hole X1. As a result, in the shell forming a hollow structure, the neck 1 , face 2 , bottom 3 and side 5 have parts made only of metal, and the crown 4 has a part made only of fiber-reinforced plastic.

Abstract

A golf club head with vibration attenuation and very nice beating sound features that there is a hollow structure in at least one of neck, face, bottom, crown and side part, which is made of the fibre reinforced plastics and metal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a golf club head having a hollow structure, and more particularly, to a golf club head that combines different materials, thereby achieving both vibration damping and pleasant hitting sound. Background technique [0002] For golf club heads, in addition to improving performance and strength such as flight distance and directionality, it is also required to attenuate the vibration when hitting the ball, and even issue a pleasant hitting sound when hitting the ball. This is because in golf, which is also a mental exercise, a subtle vibration or hitting sound has a great influence on the result. [0003] For example, JP-A-11-4919 and the like disclose a golf club head having a hollow structure made of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP). Such an FRP golf club head has good vibration damping properties, but is not ideal in terms of hitting sound and flight distance. In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-168731 and Japan...
