Description
- The present invention relates, in general, to golf tees which are prevented from being lost even though golfers strike the golf tees along with golf balls when executing tee shots and, more particularly, to a golf tee which includes a ball support unit having a magnet, and a peg unit having an iron core or magnetic core, so that the ball support unit is magnetically coupled to the peg unit, and which has a loss prevention string that couples the ball support unit and the peg unit to each other, so that, even if the ball support unit is separated from the peg unit when struck, the ball support unit is prevented from being lost.
- Generally, golf tees are golf supplies to space golf balls apart from the ground by a predetermined distance. Such a golf tee serves to reduce interference from the ground and grass when a golfer strikes a golf ball with a driver towards a green at every hole. Furthermore, the golf tee lowers a contact point at which the golf ball contacts the driver, thus increasing the distance that the golf ball is driven. In addition, the height of the golf ball, seated on the golf tee, is a significant factor that determines the movement of the golf ball which is driven by the golfer.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a representative example of conventional golf tees. - As shown in
FIG. 5 , aconventional golf tee 100 includes aball seat part 101 to seat thereon a golf ball, and apeg part 102 which is integrally coupled to a lower end of theball seat part 101. - The
ball seat part 101 has a concave upper surface such that the golf ball is stably seated on the concave upper surface of theball seat part 101. Thepeg part 102 has a pointed end like a nail such that thepeg part 102 is easily driven into the ground. - However, in the
conventional golf tee 100, because theball seat part 101 is integrated with thepeg part 102, if thegolf tee 100 is struck along with the golf ball when the golfer executes the tee shot, thegolf tee 100 may be driven far away from the tee shot position. Thus, thegolf tee 100 may be lost. Furthermore, during the game, the golfer may have to search for thegolf tee 100 which was driven far away from the tee shot position, thus undesirably wasting time. If thegolf tee 100 becomes lost, because the golfer must purchase a new golf tee, additional expenses are incurred. - Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a golf tee which is prevented from being lost even though a golfer strikes the golf tee along with a golf ball when executing a tee shot.
- In order to accomplish the above object(s), the present invention provides a golf tee, including: a ball support unit, having a ball seat, having a dish shape, provided on an upper end of the ball support unit, a coupling protrusion provided on a lower end of the ball support unit, with an opening formed at a central portion in the coupling protrusion, the coupling protrusion being downwardly convex, and a first receiving hole, having a diameter greater than a diameter of the opening of the coupling protrusion, formed from the upper end of the ball support unit to the lower end so that the first receiving hole communicates with the opening of the coupling protrusion; a magnet fitted into the first receiving hole of the ball support unit and placed on the coupling protrusion; a peg unit inserted at a lower end thereof into a ground, having a coupling depression provided on an upper end of the peg unit so that the peg unit supports the ball support unit thereon while the coupling protrusion of the ball support unit is inserted into the coupling depression, and a second receiving hole formed under the coupling depression in the peg unit to a predetermined depth; and an iron core fitted into the second receiving hole of the peg unit to a predetermined depth.
- Alternatively, in place of the iron core, a magnetic core is fitted into the second receiving hole of the peg unit to a predetermined depth such that opposite poles of the magnetic core and the magnet of the ball support unit face each other.
- In a golf tee of the present invention, a magnet is inserted in a ball support unit and an iron core or magnetic core is inserted in a peg unit, so that the ball support unit is magnetically coupled to the peg unit. As well, a loss prevention string couples the ball support unit and the peg unit to each other, so that, even if the ball support unit is separated from the peg unit by being struck along with the golf ball, the ball support unit is prevented from being lost. Therefore, the present invention solves a conventional problem in that a golfer must search for a golf tee which was driven far away from the tee shot position, thus preventing time from being wasted. Furthermore, additional expenses are prevented from being incurred due to the loss of a golf tee.

FIGS. 1 through 4 , the golf tee 1 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes aball support unit 10, apeg unit 20, amagnet 15, aniron core 23 and aloss prevention string 30. - The
ball support unit 10 has a cylindrical shape having a predetermined length. Theball support unit 10 includes aball seat 11 which has a dish shape and is provided on an upper end of theball support unit 10 so as to support a golf ball. Theball support unit 10 further includes acoupling protrusion 13 which is downwardly convex and is provided on a lower end of theball support unit 10. Anopening 12 is formed at a central portion in thecoupling protrusion 13. Theball support unit 10 further includes afirst receiving hole 14 which has a diameter greater than the diameter of the opening 12 of thecoupling protrusion 10 and is formed from the upper end of theball support unit 10 to the lower end. The first receivinghole 14 communicates with the opening 12 of thecoupling protrusion 10. - The
peg unit 20 includes acoupling depression 21 which is provided on an upper end of thepeg unit 20 so that thepeg unit 20 supports theball support unit 10 thereon while thecoupling protrusion 13 of theball support unit 10 is inserted into thecoupling depression 21 and a lower end of thepeg unit 20 is inserted into theground 41. Thepeg unit 20 further includes asecond receiving hole 22 which is formed under thecoupling depression 21 in thepeg unit 20 to a predetermined depth. - The
magnet 15 has the same diameter as does the first receivinghole 14 of theball support unit 10. Themagnet 15 is forcibly fitted into thefirst receiving hole 14 until it is brought into contact with thecoupling protrusion 13. - The
iron core 23 has a nail shape which is enlarged at one end. Theiron core 23 is forcibly fitted into thesecond receiving hole 22 of thepeg unit 20 to a predetermined depth. - The
ball support unit 10 includes a first throughhole 16 which is formed at a pre-determined position in the lower end of theball support unit 10. Furthermore, thepeg unit 20 includes a second throughhole 24 which is formed at a predetermined position in the upper end of thepeg unit 20. Theloss prevention string 30 is coupled both to theball support unit 10 and to thepeg unit 20 by insertion of both ends thereof into the first and second throughholes loss prevention string 30 is exposed to the outside. Therefore, even if theball support unit 10 is removed from thepeg unit 20 by being struck along with the golf ball by a golf club, theloss prevention string 30 prevents theball support unit 10 from being driven far from thepeg unit 20. - The
ball support unit 10 is made of material which is flexible and has sufficient elasticity and tension. Preferably, theball support unit 10 is made of polyurethane. - Furthermore, it is preferred that the
peg unit 20 be made of polycarbonate. - The assembly of the golf tee 1 of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure will be explained herein below.
- First, the
magnet 15 is inserted into thefirst receiving hole 14 of theball support unit 10. At this time, themagnet 15 is forcibly fitted into the first receivinghole 14 until themagnet 15 contacts thecoupling protrusion 13. - Thereafter, the
iron core 23 is forcibly fitted into the second receivinghole 22 of thepeg unit 20 to a predetermined depth. - Both ends of the
loss prevention string 30 are inserted into the first throughhole 16 of theball support unit 10 and the second throughhole 24 of thepeg unit 20, such that a predetermined length of theloss prevention string 30 is exposed to the outside. - Thereafter, the
coupling protrusion 13 of theball support unit 10 is inserted into thecoupling depression 21 of thepeg unit 20. Then, themagnet 15 of theball support unit 10 attracts theiron core 23 of thepeg unit 20 so that theball support unit 10 is magnetically coupled to thepeg unit 20. - As such, the
magnet 15 is provided in theball support unit 10, theiron core 23 is provided in thepeg unit 20, and theloss prevention string 30 is coupled to both theball support unit 10 and theiron core 23, thus completing the assembly of the golf tee 1. - Hereinafter, the operation of the golf tee 1 of the present invention will be explained.
- First, the lower end of the
peg unit 20 is driven into the ground at a desired position. Thereafter, thecoupling protrusion 13 of theball support unit 10, which is connected to thepeg unit 20 by theloss prevention string 30, is inserted into thecoupling depression 21 of thepeg unit 20. At this time, themagnet 15 of theball support unit 10 attracts theiron core 23 of thepeg unit 20, so that theball support unit 10 is magnetically coupled to thepeg unit 20. - Then, the preparation of the golf tee 1 for use is complete.
- In this state, a golfer places a golf ball on the
ball seat 11, provided on the upper end of theball support unit 10, and executes the tee shot. - When the golfer executes the tee shot, if the
ball support unit 10 is struck along with the golf ball by the golf club, theball support unit 10 is separated from thepeg unit 20 and is moved along an imaginary line shown inFIG. 2 . - That is, in the present invention, even if the
ball support unit 10 is removed from thepeg unit 20, theball support unit 10 is not driven far from the tee shot position thanks to theloss prevention string 30, which couples theball support unit 10 to thepeg unit 20. - Meanwhile, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the
iron core 23, which is provided in thepeg unit 20, engages with themagnet 15 of theball support unit 10. However, in place of theiron core 23, a magnetic core may be used as the element responding to themagnet 15. In other words, the magnetic core may be inserted into thesecond receiving hole 22 of thepeg unit 20 in place of theiron core 23 such that opposite poles of the magnetic core and themagnet 15 face each other, thus magnetically coupling theball support unit 10 to thepeg unit 20. In this case, the rest of the structure of the golf tee 1 is the same as when using theiron core 23, therefore further explanation is deemed unnecessary. - As described above, the present invention provides a golf tee in which a magnet is inserted in a ball support unit and an iron core or magnetic core is inserted in a peg unit, so that the ball support unit is magnetically coupled to the peg unit, and which has a loss prevention string that couples the ball support unit and the peg unit to each other, so that, even if the ball support unit is separated from the peg unit by being struck along with the golf ball, the ball support unit is prevented from being lost. Therefore, the present invention solves a conventional problem in that a golfer must search for a golf tee which was driven far away from the tee shot position, thus preventing time from being wasted. Furthermore, additional expenses are prevented from being incurred due to the loss of a golf tee.
- Although the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
