Benefits of technology

[0008]To solve the above problems of the conventional art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a modified golf ball which includes an external member having air vent holes which are penetrated between the interior of the golf ball and the exterior thereof, and a core member of a rib form for division and support of the inner space, to thereby have the golf ball fly lightly and enable a direction control of a struck golf ball, in which a flight distance is shortened due to resistance of air when struck and in flight.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, there is a problem that immense facilities and maintenance costs for golfer environment are required.
Such an economical burden of construction of the golfers' environment heightens a substantial cost of enjoying a golf play.
As a result, such an expansive cost weakens a popular base of a golf play.
As a result, a positive exercising effect of a golf play influencing upon a physical function may be misguided.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]The structures of modified golf balls according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018]A modified golf ball according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a core member 20 forming a spherical outer appearance and an external member 10 which is provided in the inside of the external member 10 as in the structure of a general golf ball.

[0019]As illustrated in FIG. 4, a plurality of vent holes 11 which perforate the inside and outside of the golf ball are provided in the external member 10, and the core member 20 is formed of ribs 21 for division and support of the inner space of the golf ball. The vent holes 11 of the present invention are respectively formed into a kind of a hole form, but the hole form is not limited into a circle or other polygon form. A certain form of making air smoothly communicate between the interior and exterior of the external member 1...

Abstract

Provided is a ball for leisure and sports of a new concept which is an application of a golf game. The ball relates to a modified golf ball which includes an external member having air vent holes and a core member of a rib form, in which a flight distance is shortened due to resistance of air when struck and in flight. The external member of the modified golf ball is configured to have a spherical outer cover integrated with and overlapped with the outer surface of a hemispherical inner cover. Since the modified golf ball is lightly flied when struck but its flight distance is shortened due to resistance of air, an effect of saving a land can be obtained in view of a practical use of the land, when a golf playing field is constructed.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2006-0048574, filed on May 30, 2006, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a ball for leisure and sports of a new concept which is an application of a golf game, and more particularly, to a modified golf ball which includes an external member having air vent holes and a core member of a rib form, in which a flight distance is shortened due to resistance of air when struck and in flight.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]In general, as shown in FIG. 1, a golf ball includes a core 2 which is formed in the inside of the golf ball, and a cover 1 which has a repelling power or elastic force and is formed of a material of a different quality from that of the cover 2, in which the co...
