Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a golf equipment cleaner, and more particularly to a golf equipment cleaner that can enlarge the cleaning area during the course of playing golf, conveniently and cleanly clean golf balls or golf club heads (hereinafter referred to as "golf equipment"), and easily store the cleaner to prevent the spread of contamination after cleaning the golf equipment. [Background technology]
[0002] Generally, when wiping dirt off a golf club head or a golf ball during play of golf, the usual method has been to use a cloth such as a towel or a general brush to remove mud, grass, etc. from the golf equipment.
[0003] Such towels and brushes are usually carried and used by caddies, but if a caddy is not available, the player either uses a towel or brush, or does not use them at all and plays by hand, removing grass and other debris from the club head or dimples on the golf ball without wiping off the golf equipment.
[0004] That is, the grooves on the club head are designed to temporarily catch the golf ball during a high-speed swing, inducing backspin that causes the golf ball to rise and fly higher. There are about 350 to 400 dimples on a golf ball, and they are designed to reduce air resistance and increase the flight distance. However, after hitting the golf ball, the grooves on the club head or the dimples on the golf ball can become caked with mud and grass, which is difficult to remove. If the golf ball is hit without wiping off the dirt, the dirt between the ball and the club head can cause a significant loss in the flight distance and direction of the golf ball. Therefore, the dirt must be removed and the club head and golf ball must be clean before hitting the ball.
[0005] Towels for cleaning such golf balls and the like are commercially available as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a diagram showing an example of a golf ball cleaner according to the prior art, and Figure 2 is a diagram showing another example of a golf ball cleaner according to the prior art.
[0006] The golf ball cleaner 10 shown in Figure 1(a) has a folded inner surface 13 made of a regular towel, the entire upper part of the outer surface 11 sewn along seam 12 to form a pocket shape, eyelets 20 attached to the corners, and a reel wire 30 connected to the eyelets 20 via connecting rings 31. As shown in Figure 1(b), this cleaner 10 can be opened at the corners of the side to clean a golf ball 50 inserted into the inner surface 13, but because the inner surface 13 has a regular towel structure, only the surface of the golf ball 50 is cleaned, and only a portion of the dimples 51 consisting of numerous grooves is cleaned.
[0007] In addition, the folding towel cleaner 10 shown in Figure 2 has a waterproof outer surface 11 and an inner surface 13 made of ultra-fine thread, and is designed to be attached to a golf bag via a wire reel 30 or worn on the player's waist or back pocket. However, after cleaning golf equipment, the player's pants may get dirty or it may be inconvenient during movements such as a golf swing.
[0008] Examples of these techniques are disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 below.
[0009] For example, Patent Document 1 (Korean Patent Publication No. 2019-0130231, published on November 22, 2019) discloses a golf equipment cleaner that includes a pocket-shaped pocket body with at least one side open and a connecting member formed at one end of the pocket body, and uses the inside of the pocket body to remove foreign matter from golf equipment, and the pocket body has an inner pocket portion in the form of a towel or cloth to make it easier to remove foreign matter from the golf equipment, and an outer pocket portion with waterproof functionality.
[0010] Furthermore, Patent Document 2 (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1332246, registered November 18, 2013) discloses a sports ball cleaner that includes a cleaning member made of a first inner skin and a second inner skin, and a waterproof member made of an outer skin that covers the first inner skin and the second inner skin, wherein the first inner skin is woven with ultra-fine threads and warp threads crossing each other so that the ultra-fine threads protrude beyond the warp threads, and the second inner skin is woven with ultra-fine threads and warp threads crossing each other so that the warp threads protrude beyond the ultra-fine threads, and the depth of the cleaning member in the pocket shape is formed to be 1.5 to 1.7 times the diameter of the sports ball.
[0011] Meanwhile, Patent Document 3 (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0881888, registered on January 29, 2019) discloses a portable golf cleaner that includes a cloth and a moisture supply unit formed on the cloth, a towel is placed on the front or back of the cloth, a golf tee holder is formed on the towel, the cloth is made of ultra-fine thread material, the back of the ultra-fine thread cloth is silicone coated, and the moisture supply unit is composed of a moisture absorber and a support cloth that covers and supports the moisture absorber.

[0048] Hereinafter, each embodiment of the present invention will be described. [Example]
[0049] A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0050] FIG. 3 shows a first embodiment of a golf equipment cleaner according to the present invention, FIG. 4 shows the golf equipment cleaner in FIG. 3 with the upper part of the inner surface open, and FIG. 5 shows the golf equipment cleaner in FIG. 3 in an unfolded state.
[0051] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the present invention is a golf equipment cleaner that can be folded into a substantially rectangular shape and unfolded to clean various golf equipment and expand the cleaning area. The golf equipment cleaner 100 includes an outer surface 110 made of a fiber material and functions as an outer shell for cleaning golf balls, golf clubs, etc., and an inner surface 120 that functions as an inner shell for cleaning the golf equipment. Also, as shown in Figure 3, the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the present invention includes a magnet member 200 embedded in the upper part of the outer surface 110 to expand the cleaning area of the cleaner. While the golf equipment cleaner 100 in Figure 3 shows a folded rectangular shape, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be folded into a polygonal shape such as a triangle or pentagon, or into a circular or elliptical shape.
[0052] In the present invention, by providing a magnet member 200 to the golf equipment cleaner 100, it is possible to open the golf equipment cleaner 100 in a wider state than the conventional cleaner in (b) of Fig. 1, as shown in Fig. 4. That is, by providing the magnet member 200 at the top of the golf equipment cleaner 100 at a certain distance from the side surface 112, for example, at approximately two-thirds of the top, as shown in Fig. 3, it is possible to maintain an open state that extends beyond the corners of the side surface 112 and up to a portion of the top of the inner surface 120, as shown in Fig. 4. Therefore, the open state of the golf equipment cleaner 100 of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 4, allows a wider area (P) to be opened than the conventional cleaner in Fig. 1, making it easy to clean golf equipment of various sizes.
[0053] The fixed interval is not limited to a specific value, but is set in the direction toward each side surface 112 at the center of the top of the golf equipment cleaner 100 so that the state shown in Figure 3 can be maintained by the attractive force of the magnetic member 200, and the built-in position of the magnetic member 200 can be changed depending on the size of the golf equipment cleaner 100, the size of the magnet, the strength of the magnetic force, etc.
[0054] 4 and 5, the outer surface part 110 is shown sewn around the inner surface part 120 with a finishing member 111. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the edges of the outer surface part 110 and the inner surface part 120 may be sewn together. The outer surface part 110 is made of a waterproof material or a waterproof-treated material. For example, the inside or outside of the outer surface part 110 may be made of a waterproof-treated material or a waterproof material such as artificial leather. Therefore, even if the inner surface part 120 becomes wet with water or becomes contaminated with foreign matter after washing the golf equipment, the inner surface part 120 can be kept in a folded state as shown in FIG. 3, thereby keeping the outer surface part 110 dry and preventing contamination of the player's clothing.
[0055] 5, the inner surface portion 120 includes a first inner surface portion 123 that is separated in a folded state and a second inner surface portion 124 that is continuous with the first inner surface portion 123, and the upper portions of the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 can be separated and unfolded to expand the cleaning area. That is, the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 are separated portions for convenience of explanation in a structure in which the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are integrally woven continuously in the length direction as shown in FIG.
[0056] Each of the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 is provided with a first cleaning member 121 and a second cleaning member 122 that is provided continuously with the first cleaning member 121, and the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 have mutually different structures.
[0057] Furthermore, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are arranged symmetrically with respect to each other in the front-to-back and up-to-down directions. In FIG. 5, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 arranged on the inner surface portion 120 are shown to have a continuous wavy structure in the length direction, but this is not limited to this, and a continuous wavy structure in the width direction of the inner surface portion 120 can also be applied.
[0058] In addition, although Figures 4 and 5 show a structure in which the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 are continuous in a trapezoidal shape, this is not limited to this and may be a triangular, rectangular, or circular shape.
[0059] As shown in Fig. 6, the first cleaning member 121 is made of terry cloth to clean foreign matter adhering to the surface of the golf equipment, and the second cleaning member 122 is made of loop cloth to clean foreign matter adhering to the surface and grooves of the golf equipment. Fig. 6 is an enlarged photograph of the cleaning members in Fig. 5, where Fig. 6(a) is an enlarged photograph of the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122, and Fig. 6(b) is a photograph showing the shape of the second cleaning member 122.
[0060] As shown in Figures 6(a) and (b), the first cleaning member 121 is made of, for example, terry cloth made of ultra-fine threads, making it suitable for cleaning foreign matter adhering to the surface of golf equipment, and therefore easily absorbs moisture.
[0061] 6(b), the second cleaning member 122 is made of a loop weave and is suitable for removing foreign matter adhering to grooves in golf equipment, such as the dimples on a golf ball or the grooves on a golf club head, or foreign matter such as mud or grass that has stuck to the surface of golf equipment and is difficult to remove. The loop weave may be made of, for example, a loop weave made of untwisted yarn, or a loop weave made of twisted yarn such as hard nylon yarn or Kevlar (registered trademark).
[0062] In addition, the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can be woven at the same time using the same fabric, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and improving cleaning efficiency. The first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122 can also be manufactured to contain silver fiber and carbon fiber, which have antibacterial and deodorizing properties against pollutants, and can also be manufactured to contain aromatic ingredients.
[0063] 5, the magnet member 200 includes a first magnet member 210 provided on the upper part of the first inner surface portion 123 and a second magnet member 220 provided on the upper part of the second inner surface portion 124, and the attractive force between the first magnet member 210 and the second magnet member 220 can maintain the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 in the folded state as shown in Fig. 3. The first magnet member 210 and the second magnet member 220 are each disposed at a fixed interval from the side surface 112 of the outer surface portion 110.
[0064] Furthermore, when the first magnet member 210 and the second magnet member 220 are separated, i.e., when the upper part of the first inner surface portion 123 and the upper part of the second inner surface portion 124 are separated and unfolded, as shown in FIG. 5, the cleaning area is expanded and the entire first inner surface portion 123 and the entire second inner surface portion 124 can be used to clean golf equipment.
[0065] Meanwhile, as shown in Fig. 3, an eyelet 20 is provided in the folded portion of the upper part of the first inner surface portion 123 and the upper part of the second inner surface portion 124, penetrating the outer surface portion 110, the first inner surface portion 123, and the second inner surface portion 124, and a connecting ring 31 is coupled to the eyelet 20, and a reel wire 30 is connected to the connecting ring 31. Therefore, when the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 are unfolded, the upper part where the first inner surface portion 123 and the second inner surface portion 124 meet is prevented from unfolding by the eyelet 20, as shown in Fig. 5.
[0066] The reel wire 30 has about 60 to 100 cm of wire wound around it, and is equipped with a function to automatically wind the wire after it is pulled out, and is equipped with a carabiner ring or clip such as an O-type or D-type ring for attaching it to the player's golf bag or belt.
[0067] In the above description of the first embodiment, the golf equipment cleaner 100 was described as being able to maintain a substantially rectangular folded state using the magnetic member 200 to expand the cleaning area, but as shown in Fig. 7, the open state shown in Fig. 4 can also be achieved by sewing 300 up to the position of the magnetic member 200 in Fig. 3. Fig. 7 is a diagram showing a modified example of the first embodiment of the golf equipment cleaner of the present invention. Therefore, the modified example of the first embodiment of the golf equipment cleaner of the present invention can also be designed to open to a wider area (P) than the open state of the conventional cleaner shown in Fig. 1(b).
[0068] Next, an example of the usage state of the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the first embodiment and the modified example of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0069] FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating the state of cleaning a golf ball using a golf equipment cleaner according to the first embodiment and modified examples of the present invention, and FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating the state of cleaning a golf club head using a golf equipment cleaner according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
[0070] When cleaning a golf ball 50 with the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the first embodiment or modified example of the present invention, the golf ball 50 can be cleaned with both hands, as shown in Figure 8, which allows for more convenient and precise cleaning than the prior art. In addition, since the inner surface 120 for cleaning the golf ball 50 is provided with the first cleaning member 121 and the second cleaning member 122, not only the surface of the golf ball 50 but also the dimples can be thoroughly cleaned.
[0071] 5, the magnet member 200 can be separated to expand the cleaning area, thereby allowing the first and second inner surfaces 123 and 124 of the inner surface 120 to be separated and unfolded. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, even a relatively large driver club head 61 can be easily cleaned with both hands, and the first and second cleaning members 121 and 122 can thoroughly clean not only the surface of the club head 61 but also the grooves. Furthermore, even if the inner surface 120 is wet or contaminated during the cleaning process of golf equipment, the waterproofed outer surface 110 can remain dry, and since the inner surface 120 remains folded, there is no risk of contaminating the player's clothing.
[0072] Meanwhile, the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention can also be used by being attached to the player's clothing or golf bag, as shown in FIGS.
[0073] Figures 10 to 12 are diagrams illustrating the attached state of the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the present invention, where Figure 10 shows an example in which the golf equipment cleaner 100 is attached to a golf bag by a carabiner ring provided on the reel wire 30, and Figure 11 shows an example in which it is attached to a belt ring on the player's trousers.
[0074] 12, the golf equipment cleaner 100 according to the present invention can be connected to the putter cover 80 of the putter 70. This prevents the putter cover 80 from being lost when the putter 70 is removed and left around the golf course. [Example]
[0075] A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 13. In the second embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and repeated description thereof will be omitted.
[0076] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a golf equipment cleaner according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
[0077] In the first embodiment, a structure is shown in which one eyelet 20 is provided penetrating the outer surface portion 110, the first inner surface portion 123, and the second inner surface portion 124, but in the second embodiment, as shown in Figure 13, eyelets 20 are provided at the top of the first inner surface portion 123 and the top of the second inner surface portion 124, respectively.
[0078] Therefore, when the first magnet member 210 and the second inner surface portion 124 are deployed, the entire first inner surface portion 123 and the entire second inner surface portion 124 are maintained in an open state, as shown in Figure 13, so the cleaning area can be expanded more than in the deployed state in Figure 5. [Example]
[0079] Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0080] In the third embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and repeated explanations thereof will be omitted.
[0081] FIG. 14 is a view showing a third embodiment of a golf equipment cleaner according to the present invention, and FIG. 15 is a view showing the golf equipment cleaner in FIG. 14 in an expanded state.
[0082] In the first and second embodiments, a structure using the eyelet 20 has been described, but in the third embodiment, a ring member 25 is provided on one side of the upper portion of the outer surface part 110. That is, as shown in Fig. 14, a ring shape is provided by sewing, and for example, the ring member 25 made of the same material as the outer surface part 110 can be applied.
[0083] As shown in FIG. 15, the ring member 25 is attached, for example, by sewing to the finishing member 111 at the top of the first inner surface portion 123, so that when the first magnet member 210 and the second inner surface portion 124 are deployed, the entire first inner surface portion 123 and the entire second inner surface portion 124 can be maintained in an open state, as in the second embodiment. [Example]
