Example

[0021]Before the present invention is described in greater detail, it should be noted that like elements are denoted by the same reference numerals throughout the disclosure.

[0022]Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, the first preferred embodiment of a golf club head according to the present invention is adapted to be applied to a wood, and is shown to comprise a head body 5 having a front opening 51, a single-piece striking plate member 6, and a plurality of vibration-absorbing elements 62.

[0023]The single-piece striking plate member 6 covers the front opening 51 of the head body 5, and is secured to the head body 5 by the use of an adhesive. The striking plate member 6 is made of a carbon fiber plastic material, and has a striking face 61 adapted to strike a golf ball (not shown), and a back face 63 opposite to the striking face 61. The back face 63 has an outer peripheral flange 615 that projects rearwardly from the back face 63 along an outer periphery of the back face 63, an annular rei...

Abstract

A golf club head includes a head body having a front opening, and a single-piece striking plate member covering the front opening and having a striking face with a striking zone, and a back face formed with an annular reinforcing rib behind the striking zone and corresponding in position to the striking zone, a central boss formed concentrically within the annular reinforcing rib, and a plurality of angularly spaced-apart diametral reinforcing ribs extending diametrically through the central boss and the annular reinforcing rib. The annular reinforcing rib and the diametral reinforcing ribs cooperate to define a plurality of receiving grooves. A plurality of vibration-absorbing elements are disposed respectively in the receiving grooves.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The invention relates to a golf club head, more particularly to a golf club head that has a good vibration-absorbing effect.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a conventional golf club head 1 includes a head body 11 having a front opening 111, and a striking plate 12 covering the front opening 111 for striking a golf ball (not shown). Since the conventional golf club head 1 is not provided with a vibration-absorbing element, when a player strikes the ball with a large swinging force, a substantial impact force is absorbed by the striking plate 12, such that an intense vibration is produced. This intense vibration can make it difficult to hit the ball accurately. Further, the intense vibration is transmitted to the player's hands which may bring discomfort to the player. Such transmission of vibration may be especially acute when the player is using a wood.[0005]Referring to FIG. 3, a...
