Abstract:
The present invention is a golf ball dividing method for symmetrically arranging dimples on a surface of a golf ball and a dimple arrangement method of arranging dimples along dividing lines based on sizes of dimples. The dimples having large diameters are effectively arranged on the deformed spherical triangle symmetrically over the entire surface of a sphere, so that it is possible to an effect of improving the flying stability and flight distance of the golf ball. Accordingly, it is possible to solve the problem of flying stability due to the lack of symmetry in the dimple arrangement method of the prior art for increasing an dimple area ratio by dividing the surface of the golf ball as a spherical octahedron and arranging dimples having large diameters, so that it is possible to improve a lift force to increase a flight distance and the flying stability of the golf ball.

Claim (Index 1):
A golf ball of which surface is divided as a spherical quasi-octahedron where dimples and lands are symmetrically arranged, wherein the spherical quasi-octahedron is configured to have a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere, the northern hemisphere is configured to have an arbitrary one point of the golf ball as a north pole, a deformed spherical triangle which has, as three sides, a first line segment connecting a line segment starting from a point 51(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 0 degrees) on an equator, passing through a point 63(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 330 degrees), and extending to a point 83(latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 270 degrees) and a line segment starting from a point 54(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 180 degrees) on the equator, passing through a point 62(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 210 degrees), and extending to a point 83(latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 270 degrees) at the point 83, a second line segment connecting a line segment starting from a point 52(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 60 degrees) on the equator, passing through a point 61(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 90 degrees), and extending to a point 82(latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 150 degrees) and a line segment starting from a point 55(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 240 degrees) on the equator, passing through a point 62(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 210 degrees), and extending to a point 82(latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 150 degrees) at the point 82, and a third line segment connecting a line segment starting from a point 53(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 120 degrees) on the equator, passing through a point 61(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 90 degrees), and extending to a point 81(latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 30 degrees) and a line segment starting from a point 56(latitude: 0 degrees, longitude: 300 degrees) on the equator, passing through a point 63(latitude: 36.52 degrees, longitude: 330 degrees), and extending to a point 81 (latitude: 54.92 degrees, longitude: 30 degrees) at the point 81 and includes the north pole at the center thereof, and three deformed spherical triangles, which is provided to have one side shared with the deformed spherical triangle and two sides bisected by the equator, and the southern hemisphere is configured so as to have four deformed spherical triangles in the same manner as the northern hemisphere.
