Benefits of technology

[0005]Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a golf club head which possesses a lightweight property, superior weight distribution, and improved striking stability.

Problems solved by technology

However, since the size of the shock-absorbing layer 12 is substantially equal to that of the striking portion 11, the overall weight of the golf club head 1 is relatively heavy, which in turn increases the striking load of the player and reduces the striking controllability.

Embodiment Construction

[0011]Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the preferred embodiment of a golf club head according to this invention is shown to include a hollow head body 2, a striking plate 31, and a shock absorber 32.

[0012]The hollow head body 2 has a front opening 21.

[0013]The striking plate 31 covers the front opening 21, and has a front face 311, a rear face 312, and a sweet spot 310. In the preferred embodiment, the striking plate 31 is made of a titanium alloy.

[0014]The shock absorber 32 is connected to the rear face 312 of the striking plate 31, corresponds in position to the sweet spot 310, and has a size smaller than that of the front opening 21 and substantially equal to an area of the sweet spot 310. The shockabsorber 32 includes a rim member 321 attached to the rear face 312 of the striking plate 31 and defining a receiving space 320, and a shock absorbing element 322 fitted into the receiving space 320. In the preferred embodiment, the rim member 321 is made of a carbon-fiber material, and the...

Abstract

A golf club head includes a hollow head body, a striking plate, and a shock absorber. The hollow head body has a front opening. The striking plate covers the front opening, and has a front face, a rear face, and a sweet spot. The shock absorber is connected to the rear face of the striking plate, corresponds in position to the sweet spot, and has a size smaller than that of the front opening and substantially equal to an area of the sweet spot.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The invention relates to a golf club head, more particularly to a golf club head with a lightweight property, superior weight distribution, and improved striking stability.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional golf club head 1 includes a striking portion 11 made of a metal having a high coefficient of restitution, and a shock-absorbing layer 12 connected to a rear face of the striking portion 11 and having a size substantially equal to that of the striking portion 11 so as to raise the rebound and shock-absorbing capabilities of the golf club head. However, since the size of the shock-absorbing layer 12 is substantially equal to that of the striking portion 11, the overall weight of the golf club head 1 is relatively heavy, which in turn increases the striking load of the player and reduces the striking controllability. Moreover, since the striking portion 11 is provided with t...
