  • Publication number: 20060258480
    Abstract: A golf club head includes a body having a striking plate and an assembling portion, a first elastic weight member including an elastic matrix and a metal powder mixed in the elastic matrix, and a second elastic weight member including an elastic matrix and a metal powder mixed in the elastic matrix of the second elastic weight member. The second elastic weight member includes a specific density and an elastic coefficient different from those of the first elastic weight member. The first elastic weight member and the second elastic weight member are mounted in the assembling portion of the body to form a golf club head. The first elastic weight member and the second elastic weight member adjust a center of gravity of the golf club head and provide an elastic vibration-absorbing effect.

  • Publication number: 20060196037
    Abstract: A forging blank for a golf club head is made by casting and includes at least one bending portion, a club head portion extending from an end of the bending portion, and a hosel portion extending from the other end of the bending portion. The angled bending portion of the forging blank reduces the deformation of the forging blank during a forging step that fills cinder holes in the forging blank. A golf club head can be manufactured with fewer forging molds without sacrificing the structure of the golf club head.

  • Publication number: 20060073912
    Abstract: A golf club head includes a body and a striking plate. The body includes a front side having a recessed portion. The striking plate includes a front side for striking golf balls and a rear side. At least one groove is defined in one of the front side of the body and the rear side of the striking plate. At least one plastic protrusion is formed on the other of the front side of the body and the rear side of the striking plate. When assembling the striking plate and the body, the plastic protrusion deforms under pressure to form an engaging portion that is engaged in the groove, thereby securely engaging the striking plate with the body.

  • Patent number: 6945307
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a golf club head includes preparing a golf club head casting by casting, the golf club head casting having a striking face, forging the golf club head casting at least one time and removing cinders in the golf club head casting, thereby forming a golf club head blank, and removing burrs on the golf club head blank. The golf club head casting may be heated before the step of forging.

  • Publication number: 20030173342
    Abstract: A method for combining a golf club head and a ball striking plate, includes the following steps: letting an outer edge of a ball striking plate and an inner edge of a recessed seat of a golf club head incline outward matingly, and forming an annular welding flange around a periphery of the recessed seat of the golf club head; using at least one press block to press the welding flange of the golf club head to form a deformation; using a high energy welding manner to melt and join an interface of the golf club head and the ball striking plate; and trimming the welded interface of the golf club head and the ball striking plate.
