Benefits of technology

[0009] The primary objective of this invention is to provide a golf club head having a thin-type cover plate structure, wherein a cover plate providing with a reinforcing outer edge connecting with an assembling opening of a golf club head bod

Problems solved by technology

A number of design limitations exist for the thin-type cover plate.
For example, as the thickness of the cover plate is reduced, a connecting outer periphery of the cover plate also becomes relatively thinner and weaker.
This is particularly insufficient to stiffen the connecting outer periphery of the thin-type cover plate.

first embodiment

[0036] Referring again to FIGS. 1 and 2, the construction of the golf club head body 1 shall be described in detail. The golf club head body 1 is a monolithic body, and constructed from materials selected from a group consisting of metal, nonmetal and alloy. In particular, the golf club head body 1 so constructed from nonmetal can be formed either from similar or dissimilar materials. The golf club head body 1 includes a striking plate 11 and a hosel 12. Both of the striking plate 11 and the hosel 12 has a conventional configuration and is integrally formed on the golf club head body 1 or connected to the golf club head body 1 by welding, brazing, snap-connecting, screw-connecting, adhesion or some other fastening means. The golf club head body 1 further provides with an assembling opening 13 on a crown portion in place. In the illustrated first embodiment, the assembling opening 13 is integratedly formed on a crown portion of the golf club head body 1. The assembling opening 13 of ...

fourth embodiment

[0046] In the fourth embodiment, the stepped inner periphery 131′ of the assembling opening 13′ of the golf club head body 1 further provides with an annular groove 132′. Correspondingly, the reinforcing outer edge 22′ of the sole plate 2′ provides with an annular protrusion 221′ which serves to engage with the annular groove 132′ of the assembling opening 13′. In initially assembling, the annular protrusion 221′ of the reinforcing outer edge 22′ of the sole plate 2′ is engaged in the annular groove 132′ of the assembling opening 13′ of the golf club head body 1 so as to increase assembled reliability therebetween. Subsequently, the sole plate 2′ can selectively connect with the assembling opening 13′ of the golf club head body 1 by tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, laser welding, plasma welding, electron beam welding, brazing, adhesion, snap-connecting or some other suitable fastening means.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, it will be understood that the assembling hole of the g...

Abstract

A golf club head includes a golf club head body and a cover plate mechanically connected thereto. The golf club head body provides with a striking plate and at least one assembling opening. The cover plate provides with a reinforcing outer edge and a relatively thin shell portion. The reinforcing outer edge is partially arranged on an outer periphery of the relatively thin shell portion of the cover plate. In assembling, the reinforcing outer edge of the cover plate securely connects with an inner periphery of the assembling opening of the golf club head body.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a golf club head having a thin-type cover plate structure. Particularly, the present invention relates to the cover plate providing with a reinforcing outer periphery thereof to connect with a golf club head body. More particularly, the present invention relates to the reinforcing outer edge of the cover plate connecting with an assembling opening of the golf club head body so as to intensify an assembled relationship and reliability between the cover plate and the golf club head body. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] One thin-type golf club head structure is described in Taiwanese Patent No. M256,210, entitled “golf club head body having a thin-type crown plate.” TWN No. M256,210 discloses a golf club head body and a thin-type crown plate mechanically connected thereto. The golf club head body includes a striking plate separately or integrally formed thereon. The golf...
