Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to United States Provisional Application No. 63 / 702,355, filed on October 2, 2024, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0002] Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to improvements in golf clubs, and particularly weight systems for golf club heads.BACKGROUND

[0003] To influence the feel, performance, and playability of a golf club, weights may be used with golf club heads. These weights may be used to adjust the weight distribution in the club head, which can affect how stable the club feels during a swing. More weight in certain areas can provide more control over the club head, especially through impact. Such weights may also impact the distance and trajectory of a golf ball. Heavier club heads typically generate more momentum and therefore can potentially deliver more distance, especially if other aspects of the swing remain consistent. Adjusting weight distribution using such weights may also make the club head more forgiving, such as for off-center hits. This is especially important in drivers and irons where consistency in ball striking can greatly affect performance.

[0004] Existing weight systems for golf club heads comprise separate movable weights, which experience issues such as difficulty in adjustment and potential to be easily misplaced. Therefore, it would also be highly desirable to have an improved weight system for a golf club head, which may, among other things, achieve a compact and user-friendly design and ease of adjustability.SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0005] Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an improved weight system for a golf club head. Certain embodiments of the present disclosure may include a weight system, comprising a first elongated weight portion, a second elongated weight portion, and a third elongated weight portion positioned between the first and second elongated weight portions. The first elongated weight portion may be coupled to the third weight portion on a first side of the third weight portion, and the second elongated weight portion may be coupled to the third weight portion on a second side of the third weight portion. A first fastening member may be configured to releasably secure the weight system to a golf club head.

[0006] Certain embodiments of the present disclosure may also include a weight system, comprising a first weight portion including a first side and a second side, a second weight portion extending from the first side of the first weight portion, and a third weight portion extending from the second side of the first weight portion. A weight of the third weight portion may be greater than a weight of the second weight portion, and the weight system may be configured to releasably engage to a golf club head.

[0029] As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 6, and 7, in some embodiments, one or both of the first weight portion and the second weight portion may include a channel configured to receive the first arm and the second arm of the third weight portion, respectively. With reference to FIG. 6, similar to weight system 100, an exemplary weight system 600 of the present disclosure may comprise a first weight portion 602, a second weight portion 606, and a third weight portion 604. A first arm of third weight portion 604 may be received in a first channel 610 of first weight portion 602, and a second arm of third weight portion 604 may be received in a second channel 612 of second weight portion 606. Moreover, with reference to FIG. 7, similar to weight system 100, an exemplary weight system 700 of the present disclosure may comprise a first weight portion 702, a second weight portion 706, and a third weight portion 704. A first arm of third weight portion 704 may be received in a first channel 710 of first weight portion 702, and a second arm of third weight portion 704 may be received in a second channel 712 of second weight portion 706. As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 6, and 7, the channels of the first weight portion and the second weight portion may be disposed on the underside of the first and second weight portions, which may be the surface of the first and second weight portions that faces the golf club head when releasably secured thereto.

[0030] In some embodiments, the weight system of the present disclosure may include a locking mechanism configured to further secure together components of the weight system or the weight system to the golf club head. For example, and with reference to FIG. 1, a locking mechanism, such as a star washer, lock washer, or disc, may be positioned between first fastening member 102 and third weight portion 108. In some embodiments, the central hole or aperture of third weight portion 108 may include a seat configured to receive and position the locking mechanism against third weight portion 108 when third weight portion 108 is engaged with first fastening member 102. Additionally, and / or alternatively, it should be appreciated that one or more locking mechanisms may be positioned at any other suitable location, including, for example, on a surface of third weight portion 108 facing the golf club head, between third weight portion 108 and first weight portion 104, and / or between third weight portion 108 and second weight portion 106. The locking mechanism may further securely engage together first fastening member 102 and first, second, and third weight portions 104, 106, 108 to the golf club head, and may prevent slippage, rotational movement, and rattling of the components of weight system 100. Moreover, the locking member may allow for the weight system to readily lift out of a port on the golf club head, which may prevent the weight system from getting stuck inside the port.

[0031] The weight system of the present disclosure may provide the ability to adapt to a desired total weight and distribution along the system by adjusting the weight and / or density of one or more of the first weight portion, the second weight portion, and the third weight portion. FIG. 2 illustrates different weight distributions of a weight system for a golf club head, consistent with disclosed embodiments. Similar to weight system 100, a weight system 200 may include a first weight portion 204, a second weight portion 208, and a third weight portion 206. In some embodiments, weight system 200 may include three components with substantially equally distributed weight. That is, each of the first, second, and third weight portions 204, 208, 206 may include substantially the same weight and / or density.

[0032] Moreover, as shown in FIG. 2, a weight system 202 may include a first weight portion 210, a second weight portion 214, and a third weight portion 212, similar to weight system 100. In some embodiments, weight system 202 may include three components with varying distributed weight. That is, one or more of the first, second, and third weight portions 210, 214, 212 may include a weight and / or density greater than the other(s).

[0033] For example, in weight system 202, second weight portion 214 may be heavier and / or more dense than first weight portion 210 and third weight portion 212, leading to a weight distribution of weight system 202 favoring the side of the second weight portion 214. In some embodiments, second weight portion 214 may be heavier and / or more dense than first weight portion 210 and third weight portion 212, and third weight portion 212 may be heavier and / or more dense than first weight portion 210. In some embodiments, second weight portion 214 may be heavier and / or more dense than first weight portion 210 and third weight portion 212, and first weight portion 210 may be heavier and / or more dense than third weight portion 212. In some embodiments, third weight portion 212 may be heavier and / or more dense than first weight portion 210 and second weight portion 214. It should be appreciated that any other weight and / or density combinations between the first, second, and third weight portions may be implemented to achieve any desired weight biasing (e.g., heavier center, heavier left side, or heavier right side). As discussed above, the weight system of the present disclosure provides modularity to adjust to various weight and / or density combinations by releasably disengaging and engaging the first, second, and / or third weight portions to readily switch to weight portion(s) with a desired weight and / or density. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the weight system of the present disclosure may include an indicator to identify a particular weight distribution and / or bias. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, weight system 202 may include a graphic, such as a plus sign, on second weight portion 214, signaling the side of weight system 202 having a heavier weight relative to the rest of weight system 202.

[0034] FIG. 3 illustrates a side view of an exemplary weight system 300 for a golf club head, consistent with disclosed embodiments. As shown in FIG. 3, similar to weight system 100, weight system 300 may include a first weight portion 302, a second weight portion 306, and a third weight portion 304. As shown in FIG. 3, and as discussed above, the first and second arms of third weight portion 304 may be received in the first channel of first weight portion 302 and the second channel of second weight portion 306, respectively. In some embodiments, the three weight portions 302, 304, 306 may also be coupled together via second fastening member 110 and third fastening member 112, as discussed above. Furthermore, weight system 300 may include a fastening member 308, such as a torx screw. Fastening member 308 may releasably secure the assembled weight system 300 to a golf club head in a similar manner and configuration as described above with respect to fastening member 102.

[0035] FIG. 4 illustrates a side view of an exemplary fastening member 400 for releasably securing a weight system to a golf club head, consistent with disclosed embodiments. In some embodiments, fastening member 400 may include a torx screw having a head 402, a middle region 404, and a base 406. Middle region 404 may include an area which may be positioned within the central hole or aperture of the third weight portion. In some embodiments, a rubber washer may be positioned around the middle region 404 to secure fastening member 400 to the third weight portion and to prevent components, such as the locking mechanism, from breaking and stretching over time.

[0036] FIG. 5 illustrates a top view of an exemplary fastening member 500 for releasably securing a weight system to a golf club head, consistent with disclosed embodiments. In some embodiments, fastening member 500 may include a head 502 including grooves 504. Grooves 504 may be used to engage with a tool, such as a wrench, to releasably secure fastening member 500 or other structures connected to fastening member 500 to a golf club head.

[0037] As discussed above, the weight system of the present disclosure may include weight portions with different combinations. In some embodiments, the weight portions may be neutrally weighted. In other embodiments, the weight portions may be biased towards one side. In some embodiments, the weight system may include weight portions with a total weight of 17 grams, 21 grams, 25 grams, or 29 grams. Such weight options may include an atypical progression because 25 grams is the standard preinstalled weight to achieve a standard overall weight for a golf club head. The weight system of the present disclosure may provide for readily adjusting the total weight of the system (e.g., moving up or down) by 4-gram increments. In one embodiment, for example, adjusting the total weight by 4 grams from 25 grams may facilitate achieving a desired swing weight because 4 grams is proportional to two swing weights.

[0038] In some embodiments, the weight system may include weight portions with one or more pockets on their undersides to achieve different weights using the same materials across different combinations.

[0039] FIG. 6 illustrates the underside of an exemplary weight system 600 with a weight pocket, consistent with disclosed embodiments. As discussed, weight system 600 may include first weight portion 602, second weight portion 606, and third weight portion 604. First weight portion 602 may include a weight pocket 608. Weight pocket 608 may include appropriate dimensions, such as a particular depth, length, or width. Weight pocket 608 may be machined to appropriate depths or with other dimensions (e.g., length or width) to remove mass from first weight portion 602 and achieve the precise and desired weight for first weight portion 602. Weight pocket 608 may be positioned proximate to an end of first weight portion 602. It should be appreciated, however, that weight pocket 608 may be positioned at any other suitable location of first weight portion 602 to achieve a desired total weight and / or distribution of first weight portion 602.

[0040] FIG. 7 illustrates a side view of an exemplary weight system 700 with a plurality of weight pockets, consistent with disclosed embodiments. As discussed, weight system 700 may include first weight portion 702, second weight portion 706, and third weight portion 704. First weight portion 702 may include a first weight pocket 708, and second weight portion 706 may include a second weight pocket 714. Weight pockets 708, 714 may be machined to appropriate depths or with other dimensions (e.g., length or width) to remove mass from first and second weight portion 702, 706 and achieve the precise and desired weight for first and second weight portion 702, 706. As shown in FIG. 7, weight system 700 includes weight pockets 708, 712 with uneven depths other dimensions (e.g., length or width) to achieve the desired weights for first weight portion 702 and second weight portion 706. For example, the depth of first weight pocket 708 may be greater than the depth of second weight pocket 714. As a result, the weight of second weight portion 706 may be greater than the weight of first weight portion 702. In other embodiments, the weight system may include weight pockets with equal depths and / or dimensions, which may result in a weight of first weight portion 702 being substantially the same as a weight of second weight portion 706.

[0041] It should also be appreciated that the weight pockets disposed on the undersides of the first and second weight portions may serve as receptacles to receive and hold mass inserts to further adjust the weights of the first and second weight portions and the weight distribution of the weight system. The mass inserts may include any suitable material having various weights and / or densities to achieve the desired weight adjustment.

[0042] In some embodiments, a golf club head may include a port configured to receive or house the disclosed weight system. FIG. 8 illustrates one configuration of an exemplary golf club head 800 for use with a weight system, consistent with disclosed embodiments. In some embodiments, golf club head 800 may include a port 802 shaped to receive a weight system, such as the weight system disclosed in FIGS. 1-3, 6, and 7. Golf club head 800 may also include a fastening member hole 804 into which the disclosed fastening member can be inserted to releasably secure the weight system to the golf club head 800.

[0043] FIG. 9 illustrates a configuration of an exemplary golf club head 900 engaged with a weight system, consistent with disclosed embodiments. In some embodiments, golf club head 900 may include a port 902 shaped to receive a weight system, which is similar to the weight system disclosed in FIGS. 1-3, 6, and 7, and comprises a first weight portion 904, a second weight portion 908, and a third weight portion 909. As shown in FIG. 9, golf club head 900 comprises a club body including a face portion, a back portion, a sole portion, a heel portion, and a toe portion. The weight system may be releasably secured in port 902 of the golf club head 900. In a first arrangement, and as shown in FIG. 9, the weight system may include a distribution of weight biased (i.e., heavier) toward the toe portion of the golf club head 900 by having the heavier first weight portion 904 (as indicated by graphic 910 on first weight portion 904) proximate the toe portion. In another arrangement, the weight system may disengaged and then secured in port 902 of the golf club head 900 in the opposite direction, such that more weight is biased toward the heel portion of the golf club head 900 by having the heavier first weight portion 904 positioned in the port 902 proximate to the heel portion. As shown in FIG. 9, the weight system may be releasably secured to the back portion of the golf club head body. It should be appreciated, however, that in some embodiments, the weight system may be releasably secured to other portions of golf club head 900, including, for example, the sole portion.

[0044] The weight system of the present disclosure may improve a player’s delivery of the golf club head to the ball while also helping to promote various flight path biases. Some players may be steep in their delivery while others may be shallow. By placing the weight system into the port of the golf club head in a configuration with an appropriate weight biasing, a player may continue to swing their natural swing but make improved contact and have improved ball flight based on the desired distribution of weight. Additionally, the appropriate placement and configuration of the weight system into a golf club head port may allow for desired shifts in center of gravity values, which, for example, may be beneficial for players who have tendencies to hit balls off the toe or heel.
