Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sports equipment technology, specifically relating to a golf swing trainer. Background Technology

[0002] Golf originated in Scotland and took shape in the 14th and 15th centuries. The name "golf" comes from the Scottish dialect word "gouf," meaning "to hit" or "to strike." Today, golf courses anywhere in the world are still built near sandy beaches with grassy slopes, just as they were in Scotland when the game was first played. A golf course needs both flat sand and lush green grass, as well as some undulations and water features. Modern golf courses located on the coast still use the Scottish term "links."

[0003] For beginners or those needing training, it's often necessary to practice the golf swing motion to ensure proper form and technique. However, current golf training devices are stick-shaped objects, making it impossible for trainees to feel the swing plane. Due to their short chord length, trainees cannot truly feel the centrifugal force, let alone control and utilize it, thus failing to achieve the goal of training swing rhythm. Furthermore, the grip method—holding the two ends of the device with hands approximately 80mm apart—is not the fundamental golf grip, potentially leading to errors and injuries. Most other training equipment on the market is similar in shape to golf clubs and cannot effectively train the swing plane, swing rhythm, and swing power point simultaneously. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a golf swing trainer to solve the problem that existing golf trainers cannot help users feel the existence of the swing plane, which is detrimental to training.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A golf swing trainer includes a chord member having a swing direction that is consistent with the chord extension direction of the chord member, and the chord member having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end having a left handle and a right handle.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the chordal member is a lower chord structure;

[0008] The golf swing trainer has a swing start state in which the proximal and distal ends of the chord member have a lowest point lower than the distal and proximal ends, so that the golf swing trainer forms a motion trajectory that matches the golf club when in use.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the chord-shaped member has a main equipment plane that coincides with the plane in which the chord-shaped member is located, and the left handle is located within the main equipment plane and inside the chord-shaped member;

[0010] The right handle is not located in the plane of the main equipment.

[0011] In a possible implementation, the left handle is curved and has a handle end and a connecting end, the connecting end being connected to the middle of the chord-shaped rod, and the handle end being an arc-shaped and concave handle structure.

[0012] The left handle is higher than, equal to or lower than the right handle.

[0013] In a possible implementation, the distance between the right handle and the left handle is 320-480mm;

[0014] When the golf swing trainer is in use, the distance between the left handle and the human body is greater than the distance between the right handle and the human body.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the right handle has an L-shaped structure and a limiting part is provided at the end of the right handle.

[0016] In a possible implementation, the chordal rod is a hollow structure and has sliding cavities distributed along its chordal extension direction, with a centrifugal slider slidingly engaged within the sliding cavities;

[0017] The sliding cavity forms an upper limit position and a lower limit position at the near end and far end of the chord-shaped rod, respectively. When the golf swing trainer is in use, the centrifugal slider can strike the upper limit position or the lower limit position to produce a sound.

[0018] In a possible implementation, both the centrifugal slider and the chordal rod are made of metal.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The golf swing trainer of the present invention uses a chord-shaped club as the main body of the golf swing trainer. The plane on which the chord-shaped club is located can be used as the swing plane. In this way, the trainee can feel the existence of the swing plane when using it, thereby making the swing action more accurate.

[0021] Moreover, by employing a bottom chord structure, the chord member can have a lowest point lower than the near and far ends at the start of the swing. The curvature of this structure basically conforms to the trajectory of the golf club head, making it easier for trainees to train more accurately.

[0022] Meanwhile, when trainees use it, they can hold it with the left and right handles respectively, with the right hand close to the body and the left hand slightly away from the body. This conforms to the natural state of the human body before exercise and the ready position of a golf club, which makes it easier to more accurately simulate the movement of golf. Furthermore, by setting the distance between the right and left handles to 320-480mm, which is basically the same width as the shoulders, it is more in line with ergonomic design.

[0023] In addition, by incorporating a centrifugal slider within the chord-shaped member, the slider can move within the member using centrifugal force. Under the influence of centrifugal force, it moves from the lowest point to the highest point and emits a crisp cueing sound. This allows trainees to naturally feel the position of the origin of the swing force and helps them master the rhythm of the swing. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a golf swing trainer, including a chord-shaped member 1. The chord-shaped member 1 has a swing direction that is consistent with the chord extension direction of the chord of the chord-shaped member 1. The chord-shaped member 1 has a proximal end and a distal end, and the proximal end is provided with a left handle 2 and a right handle.

[0032] The chord-shaped member 1, which can also be understood as an arc-shaped member structure, helps the trainee feel the swing plane during the swing, thus enabling better training. The swing direction of the chord-shaped member 1 is also the direction of its chord extension, which refers to the direction of the arc of the chord-shaped member 1 itself. This facilitates the formation of a trajectory that matches the golf club. The left handle 2 and right handle 3, located near the ends, facilitate gripping.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, by using the chord-shaped member 1 as the main body of the golf swing trainer, the plane where the chord-shaped member 1 is located can be used as the swing plane. In this way, the trainee can feel the existence of the swing plane when using it, thereby making the swing action more accurate.

[0034] In one embodiment, the chord member 1 is a lower chord structure; the golf swing trainer has a swing start state, in which the proximal end and the distal end of the chord member 1 have a lowest point lower than the distal end and the proximal end, so that the golf swing trainer forms a motion trajectory that matches the golf club when in use.

[0035] The lower chord structure of the chord member 1 can match the trajectory of the golf club, and this structure enables the golf swing trainer to form a trajectory that matches the golf club when in use, in the initial swing state.

[0036] Furthermore, in order to better improve the swing plane experience and ease of grip, the chord member 1 has a main equipment plane that is consistent with the plane on which the chord member 1 is located, the left handle 2 is located in the main equipment plane and inside the chord member 1; the right handle 3 is not located in the main equipment plane.

[0037] In some embodiments, the left handle 2 is curved and has a handle end and a connecting end, the connecting end being connected to the middle of the chord-shaped rod 1, and the handle end being an arc-shaped and concave handle structure; the left handle 2 is higher than, equal to or lower than the right handle 3.

[0038] In this way, the left handle 2 with this structure can not only coordinate with the structure of the chord rod 1 and be more aesthetically pleasing, but also make it easier to extend the distance between the left and right handles 3 to the same width as the shoulder, making it more practical.

[0039] In specific implementation, the distance between the right handle 3 and the left handle 2 is 320-480mm; when using the golf swing trainer, the distance between the left handle 2 and the human body is greater than the distance between the right handle 3 and the human body. When using the trainee, they can grip the left and right handles 3 respectively, with the right hand close to the body and the left hand slightly away. This conforms to the natural state of the human body before exercise and the ready position of a golf club, facilitating a more accurate simulation of golf swing movements. Furthermore, by setting the distance between the right handle 3 and the left handle 2 to 320-480mm, a size roughly the same as shoulder width, it is more ergonomically designed.

[0040] Specifically, the right handle 3 has an L-shaped structure and a limiting part is provided at the end of the right handle 3. This facilitates stable gripping with the right hand.

[0041] In the embodiments of this application, the chord-shaped rod 1 is a hollow structure and has sliding cavities distributed along its chord extension direction. A centrifugal slider 4 is slidably fitted in the sliding cavities. The sliding cavities respectively form upper limit positions and lower limit positions at the near end and far end of the chord-shaped rod 1. When the golf swing trainer is in use, the centrifugal slider 4 can strike the upper limit position or the lower limit position to produce sound.

[0042] By incorporating a centrifugal slider 4 within the chord-shaped member 1, the slider 4 moves within the member 1 using centrifugal force. Under the influence of centrifugal force, it moves from the lowest point to the highest point, emitting a crisp cueing sound. This allows the trainee to naturally feel the location of the origin of the swing force and helps them master the rhythm of the swing. The lowest point is the lower limit position, which is the leftmost end of the chord-shaped member 1, and the highest point is the upper limit position, which is the rightmost end of the chord-shaped member 1.

[0043] Specifically, both the centrifugal slider 4 and the chord rod 1 are made of metal.

[0044] To make it easier for users to hold, the left handle 2 and the middle connection of the handle are at a 10° angle to the plane of the main equipment.

[0045] Preferred embodiment:

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1-4As shown, a golf swing trainer is made of metal tubing. It mainly consists of four components: a chord-shaped shaft 1, a centrifugal slider 4 with built-in metal material, a right handle 3, and a left handle 2. These four components form a fan-shaped structure. The distance between the left handle 2 and the right handle 3 is 320mm-480mm, roughly shoulder-width. The line connecting the left handle 2 and the right handle 3 forms a 10-degree angle with the plane of the main equipment. The left hand grips the left handle 2 horizontally, and the right hand grips the right handle 3 vertically, with the right hand close to the body and the left hand slightly away. These design elements conform to the natural state of the human body before exercise and also to the ready posture for a golf swing. The chord-shaped shaft 1 has an arc length of 1200mm, and the overall chord height of the device is 690mm. This arc roughly matches the trajectory of the golf club head during movement. The built-in slider moves within the lower chord tube using centrifugal force.

[0047] Movement Principle: Grip the apparatus with both hands and swing it upwards. The built-in centrifugal slider 4, under the influence of centrifugal force, moves from the lowest point to the highest point, emitting a crisp beep. Swing the apparatus downwards, and the built-in centrifugal slider 4 reaches the lowest point (the position of the golf ball), emitting a crisp beep. Because the centrifugal force of the centrifugal slider 4 is generated by body rotation, the trainee naturally feels the position of the origin of the swing force. Since the force of the centrifugal slider 4 is generated by body rotation and has a distinct rhythm, the trainee can correctly experience the swing rhythm.

[0048] This device is designed in the shape of a fan, allowing trainees to clearly feel the state of the swing plane when swinging the device, making it very easy to control and adjust their swing plane posture.

[0049] The three key elements of golf are swing plane control, swing rhythm, and power origin. This technical solution cleverly combines these three elements organically, greatly improving training quality and enabling golf enthusiasts to master the basic techniques of the golf swing in a short period of time.

[0050] The trainer itself has a planar design, and its movement trajectory during training presents a planar motion state. Trainees can easily feel whether the swing plane is correct, and can adjust the swing plane according to their peripheral vision to achieve a correct and reasonable training posture.

[0051] The movement trajectory of the string-shaped rod 1 of the trainer is infinitely close to the movement trajectory of the clubhead. The movement power of the centrifugal slider 4 built into the string-shaped rod 1 is entirely obtained by the centrifugal force generated by the body rotating the trainer. The movement rhythm of the centrifugal slider 4 driven by the centrifugal force is the movement rhythm of the swing.

[0052] The centrifugal force generated by the training device can only be obtained by rotating the body, thus enabling the trainee to quickly and accurately find the origin of power in the golf swing.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
