Upright bent edge structure of a striking plate for combing with a golf club head body

Abstract

A golf club head includes a golf club head body, a striking plate and a connecting portion. The golf club head body provides with an assembling recession at its front side. The striking plate provides with a main plate, an upright bent edge and a support wall to constitute a U-shaped or L-shaped configuration that can increase elastic deformation of the striking plate. In assembling, the support wall of the striking plate is initially inserted into the assembling recession of the golf club head body. The connection portion is located between the golf club head body and the striking plate, and securely connects the striking plate with the golf club head body.

1 . A golf club head comprising: 
 a golf club head body including an assembling recession at its front side, and a hosel;    a striking plate adapted to connect to the assembling recession of the golf club head body, the striking plate further including at least one upright bent edge and at least one support wall engaging with the assembling recession of the golf club head body; and    a connecting portion located between the golf club head body and the striking plate adjacent to the support wall;    wherein said connecting portion securely connects the striking plate with the golf club head body;    wherein said support wall correspondingly adjacent to the connecting portion increase elastic deformation of the striking plate while striking golf ball.    
   
   
       2 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the assembling recession of the golf club head body includes a shoulder adapted to engage with the support wall of the striking plate.  
   
   
       3 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the striking plate includes a notch located between two ends of the support wall.  
   
   
       4 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 3 , wherein the notch has a position selectively formed proximate a heel portion, proximate a toe portion, or extending from a heel portion to a toe portion.  
   
   
       5 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 4 , wherein the support wall is formed on a sole portion, a top portion, a heel portion or a toe portion of the striking plate.  
   
   
       6 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is made from a connecting structure by means of pressing.  
   
   
       7 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 6 , wherein the upright bent edge of the striking plate includes an engaging groove to form a filling space, and the golf club head body correspondingly includes an engaging protrusion which is pressed to fill into the filling space of the engaging groove to constitute the connecting portion.  
   
   
       8 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is welded by gas tungsten arc welding.  
   
   
       9 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 8 , wherein the upright bent edge of the striking plate includes a first inclined surface, and the golf club head body correspondingly includes a second inclined surface that the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface commonly form a filling space for filling welding material.  
   
   
       10 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is welded by laser welding or high-energy welding.  
   
   
       11 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the connecting portion is welded by braze welding.  
   
   
       12 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 11 , wherein the assembling recession of the striking plate includes a shoulder and a barrier thereof, the barrier positions the support wall of the striking plate.  
   
   
       13 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the striking plate includes a thickness-adjusting portion corresponding to a sweet spot for adjusting a degree of elastic deformation while striking golf ball, the thickness-adjusting portion has a relatively thicker thickness with respect to that of the striking plate.  
   
   
       14 . The golf club head as defined in  claim 1 , wherein wherein the striking plate includes a thickness-adjusting portion corresponding to a sweet spot for adjusting a degree of elastic deformation while striking golf ball, the thickness-adjusting portion has a relatively thinner thickness with respect to that of the striking plate.
