Benefits of technology

[0009] One object of the present invention is to provide a ball structure providing a golf ball with a better performance (e.g., an enhanced rotation rate or speed). Because the

Problems solved by technology

Because conventional golf balls can't emit light, they have the following disadvantages: (1) When playing golf at night, even if there is illumination, the light is still limited so that one can't determine flying direction and distance of a struck golf ball.
A beginner can't thus perceive correctness when striking a ball.
That is, a conventional golf ball can't help a golfer to examine where he or she makes errors

Embodiment Construction

[0029] The present invention proposes a modified ball structure. In the embodiment, the ball is a golf ball. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the modified ball structure comprises a transparent hard inner body 1, a light emission control module 2, a transparent rubbery intermediate body 3, a spherical transparent outer body 4 and a base 5.

[0030] The transparent hard inner body 1 is a rubbery spherical transparent inner body, which is formed by embedding an upper rubber and a lower rubber.

[0031] The base 5 is disposed at the center of the transparent hard inner body 1 having an accommodation room (not shown). More than two fixing components 51 are annularly disposed outside the accommodation room. The fixing components 51 are columnar. Because the base 5 is sheathed by the transparent hard inner body 1, the deviation of its subassemblies can be avoided.

[0032] The light emission control module 2 is disposed in the accommodation room, and has a circuit board 21 with a detection switch 23 t...

Abstract

A modified ball structure has a base, a transparent hard inner body, a light emission control module, a transparent rubbery intermediate body and a spherical transparent outer body. An accommodation room is disposed on the base for installing the light emission control module thereon. More than two fixing components are annularly disposed outside the accommodation room. The transparent rubbery intermediate body is a soft rubber with resilience and shock-absorbing effect, and sheathes the surface of the transparent hard inner body. The spherical transparent outer body is a plastic body with a low flying resistance coefficient, and sheathes the surface of the transparent rubbery intermediate body. A better performance of the ball can be thus accomplished through the design of the three-layered structure.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a modified ball structure and, more particularly, to a ball structure providing a golf ball with a better performance. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Because conventional golf balls can't emit light, they have the following disadvantages: [0003] (1) When playing golf at night, even if there is illumination, the light is still limited so that one can't determine flying direction and distance of a struck golf ball. A beginner can't thus perceive correctness when striking a ball. That is, a conventional golf ball can't help a golfer to examine where he or she makes errors. [0004] (2) When playing golf at night, if a golf ball lands in a place having poor illumination, the ball is difficult to find. [0005] (3) If a ball is struck into a bush or water, the ball is very difficult to find because the light is too dim to have a good line of vision. [0006] Therefore, if one can design out a golf ball capable of emitting light...
