Description
FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

The present invention relates to a green repair device for golf. Especially the present invention relates to a green repair device for golf comprising a brush portion to clean filth which includes grass and soil attached to the head portion of a golf club, wherein the brush portion is able to be integrally formed with the device or to be attached to the device and removed from the device.

BACKGROUND OF TECHNOLOGY

With the increase of income the interest about health and recreation is increasing sharply and the number of people enjoying golf as one of recreation is increasing gradually. However when people play golf, soil, grass debris or other alien substance is attached to a head part of a golf club well so that they become a factor disturbing a golf ball in flying far away. In order to remove such a factor people have to clean up head part of a golf club with a separately carrying brush diligently. However it is a very vexatious matter. Accordingly a caddy or an individual golfer carries a toothbrush or another kind of brush to clean up a head part rapidly. But as a handle of a toothbrush is long and it doesn't match with an item put in a pocket, it makes a lover of golf embarrassed which is a sport showing off wealth. Besides as a golfer carries a toothbrush in a pocket and loses it easily, it was necessary to carry several toothbrushes but it was inconvenient.

To remove such an inconvenience a Korean patent publication no. 10-2002-68612 teaches us a repair device on one side of an end of which a brush is attached. FIG. 18 shows a perspective view of a repair device according to prior art. A rear part (18a) of a scraper (18) projects and the projected part (18a) is used to scrape debris of grass attached to a head of a golf club and a brush (16) is used to clear away alien substances attached to the surface of a golf article.

But as in such a green repair device according to prior art a gap of a finger part (14) widens much, it was inconvenient to collect soil or grass in case of repair of grass and it was not convenient somatologically to grip a device and there was a problem that a thumb slides in case of repair. And as a grip part (12) and a finger part (14) form a straight line, it was inconvenient to repair.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Subject

 BEST MODE FOR EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

This invention can be embodied in various ways. Now the composition and the principle of operation of each embodiment are explained in detail by referring to the drawings.

1. A First Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

A green repair device for golf according to the present invention is illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 7. A green repair device for golf of this invention,

characterized in comprising,

a repair part (40) which consists of two legs spread out in a form of a fork and a waist connecting the two legs and is used in order to restore grass damaged by a golf ball into normal state;

a handle (20) of said green repair device which is connected to the waist (41) of said repair device (40) and whose width is formed wider compared to its thickness; and

a brush part (50) which is attached to end of said handle (20) of said green repair device in an attachable and removable type and cleans up filth including grass and soil attached to the head part of a golf club,

wherein multiple of penetration holes (11) (12) are formed in the upper part of said handle (20) of the green repair device and,

said brush part (50) comprises

a brush head part (52) on one side of which multiple of pieces of hair (54) are implanted;

a groove part (57) (58) formed on the other side of said brush head part (52) where no pieces of hair are implemented in order that said groove part has a diameter of a size corresponding to the penetration holes (11) (12) and has the same number as the penetration holes;

an extension part (59) of a brush head which is a one-sided extension of said brush head part (52) and has a straight line form and has the same width as said handle (20) of the green repair device and is well bent if a force is given and is positioned at the opposite side of said brush head part (52) and whose material is soft plastic; and

projected parts (55) (56) of a brush head which on said extension part (59) of a brush head of said brush head part (52) is formed a specific distance 2d apart from said brush part (50) to be projected opposite the hair (54) and is prepared a distance d apart from said brush part (50) for correspondence to the number of said groove part (57) (58) so as to fix to said handle (20) of the green repair device by setting in said projected parts (55) (56) into multiple of said groove parts (57) (58) through the penetration holes (11) (12) by bending said extension part (59) of said brush head part opposite the hair (54),
