## Background
BACKGROUND
The present invention generally relates to a device for measuring an inclination and a height around a hole cup, and for measuring a height of a green in a golf course, wherein a right and left inclination of a hole cup placed in an inclined green is determined by measuring an angle relative to a horizontal line using a major axis of the hole cup and gravity, determining a height between a golf ball and a hole cup by measuring an angle relative to a horizontal line between the golf ball and the hole cup in a green, and determining a height of a green by using a horizontal distance with a yard marker and an elevation angle at a location on the green. More particularly, the present invention relates to a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course, the device being capable of simply measuring an inclination angle that is required to measure putting inclination and a distance according thereto.
Generally, in golf, in order to sink a golf ball in a hole in a green, there is need to putt the ball, whereby a golfer has to take into consideration a distance between a location where a golf ball is located and a hole cup, a right and left inclination around the hole cup, and a height (ascent/descent) between the golf ball and the hole cup. In other words, when putting in golf, a right and left inclination around the hole cup, and a height between the golf ball and the hole cup are crucial factors in deciding a direction and distance of putting. Thus, sinking the ball is dependent upon an accurate determination and a stroke. In addition, when taking an approach shot that sends the ball nearer the hole cup, there is need to change golf clubs, taking into consideration a distance between a location of a golf ball and the green, the height of a green, etc.
Generally, in order to verify requirements that are mentioned above, a direction and a distance of stroke, selection of a club, or an adjustment of a swing direction is made with eye measurement or by guesswork. However, in this case, many trials and errors are caused by eye measurement, which is a barrier to improving golf skill. To solve this problem, a digitized device has been developed. However, the device is problematic in that a price thereof is high, the device is inaccurate, etc. Thus, the device is not commonly used. To solve this problem, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 443304 discloses a device, wherein a pendulum is used in order to roughly measure an inclination of a green.
However, the device according to Korean Utility Model Registration No. 443304 provides only approximate inclination information and does not provide accurate inclination angle relative to a ground surface of a green located within an inclination angle to be judged. Therefore, accuracy is not provided in judgment of a direction and a distance for putting. Further, a height between a location of a golf ball on a fairway and a hole cup in a green is not provided, either. To solve this problem, Korean Patent Application No. 10-2010-136993, which is filed by an applicant of the present invention, discloses a device for measuring an inclination angle and a height of a green in a golf course. The device includes: a casing, wherein an angle relative to a reference line is presented on a front surface thereof so as to measure an inclination angle of a green; an inclination angle measurement part presenting an angle between a direction of the reference line and a direction of gravity, wherein the inclination angle measurement part presents a horizontal reference line and a vertical reference line on the front surface of the casing; an inclination angle display part presenting a rotation angle of a needle relative to the horizontal and the vertical reference line; and a needle capable of rotating relative to the inclination angle display part by using gravity.
As shown in FIG. 2 of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2010-136993, there is provided a gripping part in order to measure an inclination angle after the needle indicates a certain angle. The gripping part includes: a pair of gripping supports to temporarily maintain a measured angle of a vertical needle member for a predetermined time when an angle of a green is measured, wherein a pair of the gripping supports are configured to have a rounded circumference corresponding to a display of an azimuth of a horizontal graduation display part; and a gripping groove capable of being gripped by partially exposing an end of the vertical needle member that is placed between a pair of the gripping supports and an outer circumference. However, in this case, the device is problematic in that foreign substances or rainwater flow into the gripping groove, making the needle member improperly function because of a failure to rotate. Further, the device is problematic in that the needle is deformed by gripping the needle member, and at the same time it is inconvenient to grip the pointed needle. Therefore, the development of a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course is required in order to solve these problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the related art, and the present invention is intended to propose a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course so that a right and left inclination around a hole cup and a height between a golf ball and a hole cup can be measured by accurately determining an inclination angle around the hole cup through a simple structure capable of easily preventing a needle member from shaking by using gravity. The present invention is also intended to propose a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course, the device being capable of accurately measuring an inclination angle of a green, etc. by preventing foreign substances from naturally flowing via gravity in a rotation shaft of the needle member.
Further, the present invention is intended to propose a compact device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course so that an inclination angle between an extension line of a green or a golf flag, and an actual horizontal line can be simply measured regardless of a distance between a hole cup and a golf ball.
In order to achieve the above object, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course including: a rotation member 200 having a weight member 210 provided eccentrically relative to a central axis of the rotation member such that the rotation member 200 freely rotates around a rotation shaft 220, the rotation member 200 having a horizontal measurement line HL and a vertical measurement line VL marked thereon; a first casing 110 having an accommodation space 112 for allowing a free rotation of the rotation member 200 on the rotation shaft 220; and a second casing 120 fitted over an outer circumference of the first casing 110 having the accommodation space 112, the second casing 120 having first rotation graduations marked along a circumference thereof, and a horizontal judge line h and a vertical judge line v marked thereon, wherein the rotation member 200 comes into close contact with both the first casing 110 and the second casing 120, and then is stopped by a pressure generated between the first casing 110 and the second casing 120.
According to the present invention having the above-described characteristics, it is possible to prevent a defect caused by foreign substances and to provide the device with no opening part to support a needle, whereby simple measurement of an inclination angle of a green, etc. is possible by stopping a rotation member without specifying a location where a second casing or a rotation shaft is pressurized against a first casing.

Reference will now be made in greater detail to a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a state of determining an inclination of a green or a height of the green, etc. by using the device according to the one embodiment of the present invention.
FIGS. 3a and 3b are schematic sectional views taken along line A-A of FIG. 2 illustrating a process of stopping a rotation member of the device according to the one embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3b, the device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course, according to the one embodiment of the present invention, includes: a rotation member 200 having a weight member 210 provided eccentrically relative to a central axis of the rotation member such that the rotation member 200 freely rotates around a rotation shaft 220, the rotation member 200 having a horizontal measurement line HL and a vertical measurement line VL marked thereon; a first casing 110 having an accommodation space 112 for allowing a free rotation of the rotation member 200 on the rotation shaft 220; and a second casing 120 fitted over an outer circumference of the first casing 110 having the accommodation space 112, the second casing 120 having first rotation graduations marked along a circumference thereof, and a horizontal judge line h and a vertical judge line v marked thereon, wherein the free rotation of the rotation member 200 is stopped by a pressure generated between the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 or by a pressure generated between the first casing 110 and the rotation shaft 220.
Here, the rotation member 200 may be in a shape of a disc. The rotation member 200 is provided with an accommodation groove 212 so as to accommodate the weight member 210 eccentrically relative to an extension of the vertical measurement line VL that passes through the central axis of the rotation member 200. The rotation shaft 220 penetrates the central axis of the rotation member 200. Thus, the rotation member 200 freely rotates relative to the first casing 110 and the second casing 120. In addition, the rotation member 200 is marked with the horizontal measurement line HL and the vertical measurement line VL based on the central axis thereof.
Meanwhile, the rotation member 200 is provided with spacers 222a and 222b on a front surface and a rear surface thereof respectively, wherein the spacers 222a and 222b are configured such that centers thereof are the rotation shaft 220 by being fitted over the rotation shaft 220 at locations between the first casing 110 and the second casing 120. Here, a size of the spacers 222a and 222b may be much smaller than that of the rotation member 200. In addition, the spacers 222a and 222b may be in a shape of a ball made of light materials or may be a bearing.
The rotation shaft 220 may be penetrated with a gap or may be fitted relative to the central axis of the rotation member 200. Meanwhile, a first end of the rotation shaft 220 may be provided with a flange 224, the flange 224 protruding through a rotation hole 124 of the second casing 120.
When the rotation member 200 freely rotates around the rotation shaft 220, the horizontal measurement line HL and the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200 indicate an actual horizontal line and an actual vertical line by the weight member 210.
The first casing 110 has the accommodation space 112 for allowing a free rotation of the rotation member 200 on the rotation shaft 220. A center of the accommodation space 112 is provided with a rotation groove 114, the rotation groove 114 allowing the rotation member 200 to freely rotate by seating a second end of the rotation shaft 220 therein.
Meanwhile, second rotation graduations 116 are provided on an inner circumferential surface of the first casing 110 having the accommodation space 112, the second rotation graduations 116 presenting an angle that the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200 indicates. Here, the circumference of the first casing 110 may be made of transparent materials.
Further, an extension member 118 is a pair of arms and is provided on a bottom surface of the first casing 110, wherein the extension member 118 extends in opposite directions and is received in a sliding channel. In particular, when an inclination angle at a long distance or a height based thereon is measured, the extension member 118 is used to expand a limited view by sliding the extension member 118 of the first casing 110 in opposite directions. For instance, when a line of the extension member 118 is matched with a slope line between a hole cup (or a hole flag) and a golf ball, it is easy to measure a displacement angle (an inclination angle and a rotation angle) of the first rotation graduations 122 on the second casing 120 relative to the horizontal measurement line HL or the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200.
As described hereinbefore, the extension member 118 is configured to slide in opposite directions relative to the first casing 110. However, the extension member 118 may have a different configuration to provide an extension line for a function described above. For instance, the extension member 118 may be configured to be connected to the first casing 110 by a foldable arm so that the extension member 118 can provide an extension line when the extension member 118 is unfolded.
For example, as shown in FIGS. 4a and 4b, the device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course according the one embodiment of the present invention, the device may be configured such that the extension member 118 is a pair of arms including a first arm 118b and a second arm 118d. The first arm 118b may be configured such that a first end thereof is hingedly connected to a hinge shaft 118a, the hinge shaft 118a coupled to a bottom surface 110B of the first casing 110. The second arm 118d may be configured to be hingedly connected to a second end of the first arm 118b by means of a hinge shaft 118c. Here, the respective extension members 118 may be coupled to and unfolded at opposite ends of a protrusion 110B′ that protrudes in a longitudinal direction of the bottom surface 110B of the first casing 110. In addition, the extension member 118 may be marked with a judge line along a longitudinal direction thereof.
Meanwhile, a rear surface of the first casing 110 is provided with an attachment groove 110m to attach a ball marker (not shown) by means of a magnetic force of an embedded magnet (not shown). Here, the attachment groove 110m may be open in an end thereof, which may allow the ball marker attached on the rear surface of the first casing 110 to slide out and to be withdrawn with ease.
The second casing 120 is fitted over the outer circumference of the first casing 110 having the accommodation space 112 so that the rotation member 200 can freely rotate in the accommodation space 112 of the first casing 110. The first rotation graduations 122 presenting a rotation angle are marked along a circumference of the second casing 120 at regular intervals. The second casing 120 is provide with a rotation hole 124 for allowing a first end of the rotation shaft 220 to be seated or to be penetrated through. Here, any end of the rotation shaft 220 may be provided with a flange 224 that protrudes outside of the rotation hole 124.
Meanwhile, a horizontal judge line h and a vertical judge line v are marked on the second casing 120 based on the rotation hole 124. The horizontal line h of the second casing 120 is provided to match a slope line between a hole cup and a golf ball around the hole cup or to match a line relative to a major axis of the hole cup or to match a slope line between a hole cup (or a hole cup flag) and a golf ball therewith.
The second casing 120 may be made of a transparent synthetic resin material that can be elastically restored.
Hereinafter, a description will be made on an operation of the device for measuring an inclination of a green in a golf course according to the one embodiment of the present invention. For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 3b, when a user wants to know a height H between a flag F of a hole cup C and a golf ball B is determined, the user must firstly match an extension line between the flag F of the hole cup C and the ball B with the horizontal judge line h or with a line of the extension member 118 that is extended by sliding or folding.
Here, the rotation member 200 rotates relative to the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 by the weight member 210. Thus, the horizontal measurement line HL or the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200 indicates an inclination angle θ relative to the first rotation graduations 122 of the second casing 120. In this state, the user pressurizes the first casing 110 against the second casing 120. The second casing 120 is pressed toward the first casing 110 by a press. Accordingly, the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 come into close contact with each other through the medium of the spacers 222a and 222b, and then the rotation member 200 is stopped. In a state where the rotation member 200 is stopped, the user can check the inclination angle θ that the horizontal measurement line HL or the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200 indicates, at close range.
A height H=L (L>>H) between a golf ball and a hole cup (or a hole cup flag) relative to a distance L between the hole cup and the golf ball can be determined by the identified inclination angle θ or a yard marker of a fairway.
Similarly, a height (ascent/descent) between the ball and the hole cup in a green can be measured in a same manner. However, the distance L between the hole cup and the golf ball can be measured by a user's stride, meaning the number of steps. To measure an inclination angle θ between the golf ball and the hole cup, the user matches the extension line between hole cup C and the golf ball B with the horizontal judge line h of the second casing 120. After matching the line, as mentioned above, the user stops the rotation member 200 by a pressure generated from the first casing 110 and the second casing 120. In a state where the rotation member 200 is stopped, the user can check the inclination angle θ indicated by the horizontal measurement line HL or the vertical measurement line VL of the rotation member 200 at close range, and the height H=L (L>>H) between the ball and the hole cup can be determined by checking the inclination angle θ.
Meanwhile, when the user wants to know a right and left inclination around the hole cup, firstly, the user must match a major axis of the hole cup with the horizontal judge line h of the second casing 120 at a predetermined distance from the hole cup. After that, as described above, the user stops the rotation member 200 by a pressure generated from the first casing 110 and the second casing 120. In a state where the rotation member 200 is stopped, the user checks the inclination angle θ indicated by the horizontal measurement line HL or the vertical measurement line VL at close range. Thereby, the right and left inclination around the hole cup, and the inclination degree can be determined, which may help in effectively putting.
Meanwhile, to compensate for hand shaking in measuring an inclination around a hole cup at a short distance, a vertical bottom surface of the first casing 110 may have a magnet M therein. It is more accurate to measure the inclination or the inclination angle around the hole cup in a state where the magnet M provided in the bottom surface of the first casing 110 is temporarily mounted to an end of a putter.
The device according to the one embodiment of the present invention may be configured such that the second casing 120 is made of a synthetic resin material that can be elastically restored. Thus, when the second casing 120 is pressurized against the first casing 110, the rotation member 200 comes in to close contact with both the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 through a medium of spacers 222a and 222b by a pressure, and then the rotation member 200 is stopped. Therefore, it may help to simply measure a rotation angle, and at the same time help to prevent a foreign substance outside from flowing into the device.
FIGS. 5a and 5b are schematic sectional views taken along line A-A of FIG. 2 illustrating a process of stopping a rotation member of the device according to another embodiment of the present invention. In the device according to the another embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts as the embodiment mentioned above, and an explanation thereof will be skipped.
The device, according to the another embodiment of the present invention, is configured such that a first end of the rotation shaft 220 is provided with a flange 224 that protrudes through a rotation hole 124 of the second casing 120, wherein the rotation shaft 220 is fixedly mounted to the rotation member 200.
As mentioned above, when a right and left inclination around a hole cup, a height according to an inclination between a hole cup and a golf ball on a green, or a height according to an inclination between a hole cup and a golf ball outside of a green is measured, the rotation member 200 may be stopped by pressurizing the flange 224 protruding out of the rotation hole 124 of the second casing 120, against the first casing 110.
Meanwhile, according to still another embodiment of the present invention, when an inclination of a green in a golf course is measured at a long distance, the extension member may be received by rotating toward a main body of a casing. When necessary, the extension member may rotate in an opposite direction, and slide out for use.

The accommodation groove 110X of the first casing 110 placed the bottom surface 110D of the first casing 110 is open in a first side, wherein a seating groove 110h is provided therein in order to prevent the extension member 119 from deviating out of the accommodation groove 110X when the extension member 119 is received in the accommodation groove 110X of the first casing 110. Meanwhile, a second side of the accommodation groove 110X formed on an upper side 110U of the first casing 110 is provided with a locking protrusion 110W for allowing the extension member 119 to be unfolded parallel to the upper side 110 U of the first casing 110 when the extension member 119 rotates relative to the hinge shaft 119A and is unfolded.
