main switch 10, a selectingswitch 11 having alamp selecting switch 11 a and asound selecting switch 11 b, ashot sensor 12, asound generator 13, first andsecond relays down blow lamp 15, aduff lamp 15 a, and first andsecond relay switches second relays - The
main switch 10 is supplied with a power supply voltage Vcc and has an output terminal branched into each input terminal of the lamp andsound selecting switches selecting switch 11. - The lamp and sound selecting switches11 a and 11 b selectively operate the down blow and
duff lamps sound generator 13, respectively. Thelamp selecting switch 11 a is connected to the first andsecond relays duff lamps sound selecting switch 11 b is connected to thesound generator 13. - The
shot sensor 12 includes a downblow sensing switch 12 a and aduff sensing switch 12 b. - The down
blow sensing switch 12 a has an output terminal OUT1 connected to both an enable terminal EN1 of thesound generator 13 and thefirst relay 14. Theduff sensing switch 12 b has an output terminal OUT2 connected to both an enable terminal EN2 of thesound generator 13 and thesecond relay 14 a. - As shown in FIGS.2 to 4, a mechanical construction of the down
blow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b is provided with switches formed by respective contact points between abase 100 and anartificial turf mat 120. As shown in FIG. 6, the downblow sensing switch 12 a is installed before a position of agolf ball 300 placed on theartificial turf mat 120, and theduff sensing switch 12 b is installed behind thegolf ball 300. - In other words, the down
blow sensing switch 12 a is formed in a position where the down blow is achieved, and theduff sensing switch 12 b is formed in a position where the down blow fails. - According to an operation of the
shot sensor 12, when a club head strikes thegolf ball 300, the downblow sensing switch 12 a is turned on to output a control signal informing a success of the down blow through the output terminal OUT1 of the downblow sensing switch 12 a. If theduff sensing switch 12 b is turned on, a control signal informing a failure of the down blow is outputted through the output terminal OUT2 of theduff sensing switch 12 b. - The
sound generator 13 is connected to theshot sensor 12 and outputs respective set sounds according to the control signal informing the success or the failure of the down blow. - In case the down blow succeeds, the
first relay 14 is excited in response to the signal outputted from the output terminal OUT1 of theshot sensor 12 to thereby turn on thefirst relay switch 16 to light thedown blow lamp 15. In case the down blow fails, thesecond relay 14 a is excited in response to the signal outputted from the output terminal OUT2 of theshot sensor 12 to turn on the second relay switch to light theduff lamp 15 a. - Accordingly, if the down blow succeeds, the down
blow lamp 15 is lighted, and if the down blow fails, theduff lamp 15 a is lighted. - A golf trainee turns on the
main switch 10 and selects one or both of thelamp selecting switch 11 a and thesound selecting switch 11 b according to whether to train the prevention of the head up using the lamp, whether to check the down blow using a sound, or whether to train the prevention of the head up while checking the down blow. - Therefore, if the lamp selecting switch is set to the on state, the first and
second relays blow lamp 15 and theduff lamp 15 a are selectively lighted according to the control signals outputted from theshot sensor 12. If thesound selecting switch 11 b is set to the on state, thesound generator 13 becomes a ready state. - The down blow and
duff lamps sound generator 13 are driven simultaneously in order to check the down blow and train the prevention of the head up at the same time. - As shown in FIG. 6, if the golf trainee swings the club in a state that both the lamp and sound selecting switches11 a and 11 b are set to the on state, the club head 200 contacts with the
mat 120. At this time, if the golf trainee swings normally, the club head 200 contacts with themat 120 at a slight front in a progress direction of thegolf ball 300, such that the downblow sensing switch 12 a is operated. If the downblow sensing switch 12 a is operated, thedown blow lamp 15 is lighted by thesound generator 13 and thefirst relay 14 since the output terminal OUT1 of the downblow sensing switch 12 a is connected to the enable terminal EN1 of thesound generator 13 and thefirst relay 14. At the same time, thesound generator 13 outputs a sound notifying that the down blow succeeds, for example, a voice like “good shot”. At this time, it is preferable that the downblow lamp 15 is lighted for 2 to 3 seconds. The control signal outputted from the output terminal OUT1 of theshot sensor 12 allows thefirst relay 14 to drive thefirst relay switch 16 for 2 to 3 seconds and then put out thedown blow lamp 15. - In other words, in case the golf trainee performs the shot normally and succeeds in the down blow, the golf trainee can check the down blow by the sound outputted from the
sound generator 13. At the same time, the head up can be prevented by checking thedown blow lamp 15 that is lighted for 2 to 3 seconds. - It is preferable to make a difference between the
down blow lamp 15 and theduff lamp 15 a. For example, a green lamp is used to notify the success of the down blow. - If the golf trainee does not perform the normal swing so that the
club head 200 contacts with themat 120 before it contacts with thegolf ball 300, theduff sensing switch 12 b is operated. If theduff sensing switch 12 b is operated, theduff lamp 15 a is lighted by thesound generator 13 and thesecond relay 14 a since the output terminal OUT2 of theduff sensing switch 12 b is connected to the enable terminal EN2 of thesound generator 13 and thesecond relay 14. At the same time, thesound generator 13 outputs a sound notifying that the down blow fails, for example, a voice like “no good”. A red lamp can be applied to theduff lamp 15 a in order to easily make a difference between theduff lamp 15 a and thedown blow lamp 15 and notify the failure of the down blow. - It is preferable to cause the
second relay 14 a to drive thesecond relay switch 16 a for a predetermined time in order to light the duff lamp for 2 to 3 seconds. Even though the down blow is not achieved, the training for preventing the head up can be achieved continuously. - In this manner, the golf trainee can train with a correct posture by preventing the head up while looking at the
down blow lamp 15 and theduff lamp 15 a for a predetermined time. Therefore, it is preferable to place thedown blow lamp 15 and theduff lamp 15 a near to a position where the golf ball is placed. - The golf trainee can recognize his/her shot state and train the prevention of the head up by selectively checking one or both of the lighting of the down blow and
duff lamps sound generator 13. - Parts that those skilled in the art can modify easily are included in the above embodiment. A description about the parts will be made below.
- FIG. 1A shows a circuit for implementing the operations of the first and
second relays second lamps switches timer 130. - Referring to FIG. 1A, the
shot sensor 12 outputting the control signal through the output terminal OUT1 corresponds to aswitch 131. Thefirst relay 4 and thefirst relay switch 16 correspond to thetimer 130 and resistors R1, R2 and R3 and capacitors C1 and C2, which are connected to thetimer 130. Thedown blow lamp 15 corresponds to adiode 134. - If the signal generated from the output terminal OUT1 of the
shot sensor 12 by the golf trainee's shot is inputted through the operation of theswitch 131, 0 V is applied to a TG terminal of thetimer 130 and the timer is operated. At this time, a DIS terminal is opened at the same time when an OUT terminal is se to a high level. Accordingly, thecapacitor 133 that is always discharged through the DIS terminal begins to be charged through theresistor 132. - If the voltage becomes two third of the power supply voltage, the output signal is set to a low level and the charges of the
capacitor 133 are discharged through the DIS terminal. - A time when the output signal is maintaining a high level is determined by the time when the
capacitor 133 is being charged through theresistor 132. - The time can be calculated by multiplying a capacitance of the
capacitor 133 by a resistance of theresistor 132. For example, if the capacitance is 2.F(0.000003F) and the resistance is 1 M. (1,000,000.), the time is 2 seconds. - In order to obtain a more accurate time, a variable resistor can be used as the
resistor 132. The accurate operation time matched with the situation of the golf trainee can be set by adjusting the variable resistor while inputting the operation of theswitch 131 and measuring the operation time of thediode 134. - The
diode 134 connected to the OUT terminal of thetimer 130 can be lighted for 2 seconds by the operation of theswitch 131. However, instead of the analog relay circuit using the timer, it is preferable to configure the relay circuit using a microcomputer such as PIC16C84 or PIC16F84, which is a semiconductor chip having CPU function. In this case, an error can be minimized and the operation time can be set through the command set to the microcomputer. - Specifically, PIC16C84 has one embedded 8-bit timer/counter. The function as the timer is to generate an interrupt after a predetermined time by using an internal clock. At this time, an accurate time is measured through an operation of the counter according to an input signal of the
switch 131, and the interrupt is generated just after a predetermined time to thereby stop the operation. - It is important to consider the mechanical conditions of the down
blow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b. This is because the club head moving at a high speed heavily blows the surface of theartificial turf mat 120 when the golf trainee tries the shot to thereby cause a damage of the sensing switch. - A mechanical construction of the
shot sensor 12 capable of securing semi-permanent lifetime will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. - A
switch plate 150 is inserted into a reception space defined on a predetermined position of abase 100 and fixed to thebase 100 by abase fixing bracket 171 protruded sideward and ascrew 178. A steppedportion 101 is formed at the center from the reception space to the surface of thebase 100. Themat 120 is supported by the stepped portion to thereby form a space between the back of themat 120 and theswitch plate 150. - The
switch plate 150 includes a pair ofsidewalls 152 facing each other and abottom surface 151 connecting lower portions of the sidewalls. Alower contact plate 170 is fixedly installed on both lower surfaces of theswitch plate 150. Preferably, thelower contact plate 170 can be fixed to the switch plate by means of setscrew 176 or spot welding. - The
base fixing brackets 171 is protrudedly formed at predetermined intervals along upper edges of thesidewalls 152, and screwholes 173 are formed in thebase fixing bracket 171. In addition, contactplate fixing brackets 177 are formed inwardly from the upper edges of thesidewalls 152 centering on alower contact plate 170. Aninsertion hole 175 is formed on the fixingbracket 177 and ascrew groove 174 is formed on alower surface 151 of theswitch plate 150 on an extended line of theinsertion hole 175. - A
reinforcement plate 163 with a predetermined thickness is formed at the center of the surface of theupper contact plate 160 in order to reinforce the strength with respect to the impact of the club head. Aninsertion hole 161 is perforated at a position corresponding to theinsertion hole 175 of theswitch fixing bracket 177 formed on theswitch plate 150. As shown in FIG. 5, a plurality ofswitch terminals 164 are protrudedly formed on the bottom portion at predetermined intervals. - The
upper contact plate 160 is inserted from the end portion of theswitch plate 150 and coupled to theswitch plate 150 from the lower portion of theinsertion hole 175 of theswitch fixing bracket 177. In more detail, theinsertion hole 161 of theupper contact plate 160 are disposed to match with theinsertion hole 175 of theswitch fixing bracket 177. Then, acompression coil spring 162 is interposed into the back of theupper contact plate 160. A guide screw is inserted from the upper portion of theinsertion hole 175 and fixed to thelower surface 151 through theinsertion hole 175, theinsertion hole 161, thecompression coil spring 162, thescrew groove 174 in sequence. - Accordingly, the
upper contact plate 160 is always in a floating state due to the compression force of thecompression coil spring 162. If a force is applied from the upper portion, theupper contact plate 160 rises or falls by the guidance of theguide screw 176. - The
upper contact plate 160 installed as above and thelower contact plate 170 fixed to the lower surface are paired to configure the downblow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b. - The down
blow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b have the same structure and are formed symmetrically on both sides of theswitch plate 150. the downblow sensing switch 12 a is formed at a position where the down blow happens in theswitch plate 150, that is, a position before the golf ball. Theduff sensing switch 12 b is formed at a position where no down blow happens, that is, a position behind the golf ball. - In FIG. 3, there is shown the down
blow sensing switch 12 a separated from theswitch plate 150 and theduff sensing switch 12 b fixed thereto. - If a force is applied from the upper portion, the down
blow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b acts as a push switch. In other words, as shown in FIG. 6, on the rotation orbit of the swing motion of theclub head 200 at the upper portion of themat 120, the downblow sensing switch 12 a is installed before a position P where thegolf ball 300 is placed on themat 120, and theduff sensing switch 12 b is installed behind the position P where thegolf ball 300 is placed. In the swing, the contact of the downblow sensing switch 12 a or theduff sensing switch 12 b is formed due to a pressing force generated when theclub head 200 glances themat 120, so that the shot, thereby sensing the shot state. - The
mat 120 operating the downblow sensing switch 12 a or theduff sensing switch 12 b is recovered to the original state due to its own elasticity. The downblow sensing switch 12 a and theduff sensing switch 12 b become short while theupper contact plate 160 rises due to the elasticity of the respectivecompression coil spring 162. - FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate the operation state of the switch of the
shot sensor 12. In detail, FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate an off state and an on state of the switch of thesensor 12, respectively. - In other words, FIG. 7 illustrates the off state of the switch when the
upper contact plate 160 and thelower contact plate 170 are spaced apart from each other by thecompression coil spring 162. FIG. 8 illustrates the on state, when theclub head 200 contacts with themat 120 in the golf trainee's swing, thereinforcement plate 163 is pressed while pressing the contact portion of themat 120, and theupper contact plate 160 and thelower contact plate 170 contact with each other. The on state occurs due to the instantaneous contact according to the golf trainee's swing. Themat 120 is recovered to the original state due to its own elasticity, and theupper contact plate 160 rises due to thecompression coil spring 162. - The present invention can prevent the trainee from the head up by guiding the trainee to look at the lighting and light-out of the lamp according to the swing states without the help of the trainer and can check whether the down blow succeeds by the sound. Therefore, the trainee can train while correcting the posture autonomously.
- In such an autonomous training, the lighting of the lamp and the generation of the sound are selectively possible by the selective manipulation of the lamp selecting switch and the sound selecting switch. In one apparatus for training the golf, the head up correction and the down blow correction can be performed selectively or simultaneously.
- Further, durability of the switch is improved through a structural improvement of the shot sensor formed on the contact portion between the club head and the mat, thereby securing the semi-permanent lifetime.
- While the present invention has been described in detail, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made hereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
