Benefits of technology

[0008]Accordingly, one objective of the present invention is to provide a golf club head, in which the COR region of the striking plate is larger and the durability of the striking plate is better.
[0012]Based upon the above description, with the ribs of the striking plate of the present invention, the strength of the striking plate of the present invention can be improved, thereby improving the durability of the striking plate of the present invention. Furthermore, the non-striking surface of the striking plate of the present invention is partitioned into a plurality of sub-regions by the ribs, so the COR region of the striking plate of the present invention is larger as a whole. Moreover, since the striking plate of the present invention is integrally formed, the manufacturing method thereof is simpler and the manufacturing cost is lower.

Problems solved by technology

However, the COR region of the striking plate with uniform thickness is usually in the central region of the striking plate, and the durability of the striking plate is degraded as the thickness thereof is reduced.
Therefore, the COR region of the striking plate of the conventional golf club head is smaller and the striking plate thereof may be easily damaged.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded stereo view of the golf club head according to an embodiment of the present invention and FIG. 2 is a schematic rear view of the striking plate in FIG. 1. The golf club head 200 of the present embodiment comprises a body 210 and a striking plate 220. The body 210 has an opening 212. In the present embodiment, the body 210 is a shell made of a common metal material (such as stainless steel) and being integrally formed by means of lost-wax casting.

[0018]Definitely, in other embodiments of the present invention, the body 210 can also made of composite material of metal and high molecular plastic material or high strength fiber material (such as carbon fiber). A manufacturing process of the body 210 includes the following steps. A crown (not shown) is first independently manufactured by means of, for example, injection molding or thermal compression molding, and then embedded into other portions of the metal shell. Further...

Abstract

A golf club head including a body and a striking plate is provided. The body has an opening. The striking plate is disposed at the opening. The striking plate integrally formed has a striking surface exposed to the outside, a non-striking surface opposite to the striking surface, and multiple ribs spread on the non-striking surface. The thickness of the striking plate is between 1.5-4 mm. The thickness of each rib is between 0.1-3.5 mm. The ribs intersect in the region of which the center of a circle is the geometric center of the non-striking surface and of which the diameter is 20 mm.
