APPARATUS FOR INTRODUCTION TO THE GAME OF GOLF IN A LIMITED SPACE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/140422
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for learning the game of golf with a semicircular base, including a vertical wall with a rounded shape for absorbing the impact of the balls. The base is made up of two identically shaped detachable parts, one being the mirror image of the other, fitted together by a mortice and tenon joint, with three game levels. The first game consists of hitting the ball to one or the other of the ends of the base representing the space of a golf hole so it will rise up an angled plane with projecting edges in the form of a quarter circle following the curve of the detachable part and then go back down via the centre of the base through a cut-out made in the material in the shape of a semi-circular funnel representing the space of a golf hole created by the joining of the two inner ends of each one of the detachable portions of the base, or otherwise continue moving until it reaches the opposite end before being returned towards the person who hit it by performing a U-shaped rotation in one direction or the other. The second game level consists of hitting the ball to one or the other of the two concave elliptic cut-outs made in the material located on the front surface of the base and located on either side of the space of the golf hole in the shape of a semi-circular funnel, which allow the ball to perform a U-shaped rotation before being returned to the person who hit it, in one direction or the other. The circular wall is held vertically by a framework made up of rods connected by sleeves and slid into a loop sown onto the upper portion of the perimeter of the wall made of fabric or any other material that can be extended with an oblong shape in order to be attached to the two outer ends of the upper portion of the base in recessed sleeves, used to absorb the impact of the ball before returning the ball to the person who hit it.
