Golf Hat Visor Gaze Maintainer for Head-Up Prevention
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing golf head-up prevention methods require separate devices that are cumbersome and inconvenient, often leading to distractions during gameplay and economic burdens, and fail to ensure a stable swing and accurate hits due to the need for additional equipment and potential device malfunctions.
Innovation Solution
A hat with a maintenance hole in the visor and a gaze maintainer that aligns the user's gaze with the ball, preventing head-up and surrounding distractions, allowing for a stable swing and improved hitting sense by integrating the functionality directly into the hat.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If separate head-up detection devices are installed, then head-up prevention function is improved, but device complexity and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the head-up prevention function with the existing hat structure by integrating a maintenance hole in the visor and a gaze maintainer component. This merging eliminates the need for separate detection devices while maintaining the head-up prevention function, thereby reducing device complexity and improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The hat structure is designed to serve multiple functions: it provides traditional head protection while also incorporating the maintenance hole and gaze maintainer for head-up prevention. This multi-functionality allows the same device to fulfill both conventional hat purposes and the additional head-up prevention function without requiring separate equipment.
2Reliability
If separate head-up detection devices are installed, then head-up prevention function is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
By merging the head-up prevention mechanism into the hat structure itself, the patent eliminates the need for users to operate separate detection devices. The maintenance hole and gaze maintainer are integrated components that automatically function during normal hat wear, significantly improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The hat structure with the maintenance hole and gaze maintainer operates automatically without requiring user intervention or separate device operation. The system self-regulates by utilizing the natural positioning of the hat and the gaze maintainer component, making it extremely easy to use while maintaining reliable head-up prevention.
3Measurement precision
If additional equipment is required for head-up detection, then detection accuracy is improved, but economic burden increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the detection function into the existing hat structure, eliminating the need for additional equipment. The maintenance hole and gaze maintainer are integrated components that provide accurate head-up detection without requiring separate devices, thereby reducing economic burden while maintaining detection accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The hat is designed to perform multiple functions including traditional head protection and head-up detection through the integrated maintenance hole and gaze maintainer. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for additional equipment, reducing the economic burden while maintaining the accuracy of the detection function.

AI summary
The present invention provides a hat which can prevent a golfer's head-up occurring in an actual swing during swing practice or a golf round, and can prevent surroundings causing a hindrance to the swing from coming into the golfer's view so as to enable the golfer to stably swing, so that the golfer can accurately hit a golf ball and increase a driving distance, and can have an excellent shot feeling. The present invention comprises: a holding hole formed in a brim protruding forward from and connected to the cap of a hat; and a gaze-holding member which is fitted in the holding hole, so as to allow the direction of a user's gaze to coincide with a ball and thus enable the user to perform a follow-through action while gazing at the ball until the moment of impact.
