DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS In the following detailed description, only certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, simply by way of illustration. As those skilled in the art would realize, the described embodiments may be modified in various different ways, all without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive. Like reference numerals designate like elements throughout the specification.

In the specification, unless explicitly described to the contrary, the word "comprise/include" and variations such as "comprises/includes" and "comprising/including" will be understood to imply the inclusion of stated elements but not the exclusion of any other elements. In addition, in the specification, "a destination line" means a virtual linear line between a position where a golf ball is located and a destination for the golf ball.

Now, an aligning apparatus of a golf destination line and a golf putter according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

First, an aligning apparatus of a golf destination line according to a first exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 4. The aligning apparatus according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention is applied to a golf putter 1 (FIG. 2), and it is assumed that a reference line for aligning is parallel to a surface of a putter facele (FIG. 2).

FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of the golf destination line aligning apparatus according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and

FIG. 2 shows a golf putter in which the aligning apparatus of FIG. 1 is installed. As shown in FIG. 1 , the aligning apparatus 100 according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a variation setting unit 10, an input unit 20, a 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30, a 3-axis accelerometer 40, a processor 50, an output unit 60, and an interface 70. Referring to FIG. 2, a golf putter 1 includes a shaft 1a, a grip 1 b of the shaft 1a, a head 1c, a neck 1d connecting the shaft 1a and the head, and a putter that is a putting part of the head 1c. The aligning apparatus 100 according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be inserted into a folder (not shown) that is installed in the shaft 1a, the neck 1d, or the head 1c of the golf putter 1.

Referring to FIG. 1 again, the variation setting unit 10 sets a rotation angle and an acceptance angle based on the reference line and the destination line, and the rotation angle and the acceptance angle may be set in the variation setting unit 10 by the user. The rotation angle is a value for setting an angle variance between the reference line and the destination line, and in a normal state, the angle between the reference line and the destination line is maintained at the rotation angle. The acceptance angle is an acceptable error angle of the rotation angle, and in a normal state, the reference line moves within a range corresponding to the sum of the rotation angle and the acceptance angle with respect to the destination line. That is, the sum of the rotation angle and a sighted azimuth, which is sighted at the time of putting, is an aligning azimuth. For example, when the reference line, i.e., the surface of the putter face 1e (FIG. 2), is sighted to be parallel to the destination line, the rotation angle may be set to 90°, and the acceptance angle may be set to ±0.5°.

The input unit 20 receives a start signal from the user after the user sights the reference line and the destination line. The 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor

30 includes three resistance sensors that are respectively disposed to the X axis, Y axis, and Z axis of a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, and measures a 3-axis magnetic field strength of the putter 1 when the putter 1 is rotated. The 3-axis accelerometer 40 includes three accelerometers that are respectively disposed to the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis of the three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, and measures a 3-axis acceleration of the putter 1 when the putter 1 is rotated. The processor 50 determines a tilt angle of the 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30 by using a 3-axis gravity acceleration measured in the 3-axis accelerometer 40, and corrects the 3-axis magnetic field strength measured in the 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30 based on the determined tilt angle so as to determine an azimuth of the earth. The processor 50 compares the determined azimuth with the aligning azimuth, and outputs a reporting signal through the output unit 60 when the difference between the determined azimuth and the aligning azimuth is within the range of the acceptance angle.

The aligning apparatus 100 transmits signal from/to the variation setting unit 10, the input unit 20, the 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30, the 3-axis accelerometer 40, and the output unit 60 through the interface 70 to/from the processor 50. In addition, the aligning apparatus 100 may include a memory (not shown) storing a program such as the processing routine of the processor 50 and a power supplying unit for supplying power to these elements 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60. The processor 50, the interface 70, and the memory may be formed by a microcontroller, a digital signal processor, etc.

Next, an operation of the aligning apparatus of the golf destination line according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5.

FIG. 3 shows a state in which the putter face is sighted to be parallel to the destination line, FIG. 4 shows a state in which the putter face is aligned to be perpendicular to the destination line, and FIG. 5 is a schematic flowchart showing the operation of the aligning apparatus of the golf destination line according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, the processor 50 receives a start signal from the user through the input unit 20 at step S410 after the destination line 3 connecting the golf ball 2 and the destination is sighted to be parallel to the reference line, which is the putter face 1e, as shown in FIG. 3. Then, the processor 50 reads the rotation angle and the acceptance angle from the variation setting unit 10 at step S420. The rotation angle and the acceptance angle have been set in the variation setting unit 10 by the user. Basically, the rotation angle may be set to +90°, and the acceptance angle may be set to ±0.5°.

Next, the processor 50 reads the magnetic field strengths H_x, H_γ, and H_z of the respective axes X, Y₁ and Z measured in the 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30 and the accelerations A_x, A_γ, and A₂ of the respective axes X, Y, and Z measured in the 3-axis accelerometer 40 at step S430. The processor 50 calculates a resultant vector A of the accelerations applied to the putter 1 as expressed in Equation 1 , and compares the resultant vector A of the accelerations with 1[g] in accordance with the effect of acceleration due to gravity at step S440. Here, 'g' is a unit of acceleration due to gravity. (Equation 1)

The processor 50 repeats the step S430 when the magnitude of the resultant vector A of the accelerations is not 1[g]. The processor 50 calculates a pitch angle φ and a roll angle θ , which are the tilt angle of the 3-axis magnetic resistance

sensor 30, as expressed in Equation 2, at step S450 when the magnitude of the resultant vector A of the accelerations is 1[g]. (Equation 2) φ = arcsin(^ / A) θ = arcsin(_^4_j, / A) The processor 50 compensates the field strengths H_x, H_Y| and H_z calculated at the step S430 with the pitch angle φ and the roll angle θ , i.e., the tilt angle, at

step S460. That is, the processor 50 calculates compensated magnetic field

strengths H_x and H₇ as expressed in Equation 3.

(Equation 3)

H_x = H_x cosφ + H_y sinθ - H_z cosθsinφ

Next, the processor 50 calculates the azimuth of the putter face 1e of the golf

putter 1 from the magnetic field strengths H_x and H_γ compensated with the tilt

angle as expressed in Equation 4 at step S470. (Equation 4)

Azimuth = arctan(H_y / H_x )

The processor 50 determines whether the azimuth calculated at the step S470 is the sighted azimuth or not at step S480. The sighted azimuth is an azimuth that is sighted by the user. That is, the processor 50 determines whether the sighted azimuth corresponds to an azimuth that is first calculated by the processor 50 after the processor 50 receives the start signal through the input unit 20.

When the calculated azimuth is the sighted azimuth, the processor 50 adds the rotation angle to the sighted azimuth so as to calculate an aligning azimuth at step S481 , and then, the processor 50 repeats the step S430. The aligning azimuth is an azimuth of the putter face 1e when the destination line 3 is perpendicular to the reference line, i.e., the putter face 1 e of the golf putter. When the azimuth is not the sighted azimuth, the processor 50 determines whether the difference between the azimuth and the aligning azimuth is within the range of the acceptance angle at step S482.

When the difference is not within the range of the acceptance angle, the processor 50 repeats the step S430. When the difference is within the range of the acceptance angle, the processor 50 outputs the reporting signal through the output unit 60 at step S490. As shown in FIG. 4, the difference between the azimuth and the aligning azimuth is within the range of the acceptance angle when the rotation angle between the putter face 1e and the destination line 3 is substantially 90°.

According to the first exemplary embodiment, since the user can know when the angle between the reference line, i.e., the putter face 1e, and the destination line is within the acceptance angle, which is the acceptable error range of the rotation angle, the putter face 1e can be perpendicular to the destination line, i.e., a putting linear line.

While the aligning apparatus 100 has been applied to the golf putter to align the putting linear line in the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the aligning apparatus 100 may be used to align an address setup position. A second exemplary embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7.

In the second exemplary embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that the reference line for aligning is a virtual line (hereinafter referred to as "both shoulders line") connecting both feet of the user and/or both shoulders of the user. An aligning apparatus according to the second exemplary embodiment is installed on the user (not shown). The golf putter 1 (FIG 2) of the second exemplary embodiment is a golf club.

FIG. 6 shows a state in which the both shoulders line is sighted to be perpendicular to the destination line, and FIG. 7 shows a state in which the both shoulders line is aligned to be parallel to the destination line. The aligning apparatus according to the second exemplary embodiment of the present invention is used to align the both shoulders line 4 to be parallel to the destination line when the user swings the golf club. As shown in FIG. 6, a start signal is input to the input unit 20 after the reference line, i.e., the both shoulders line 4, is sighted to be perpendicular to the destination line. Then the 3-axis magnetic resistance sensor 30 and the 3-axis accelerometer 40 measure an azimuth of the both shoulders line 4 when the user rotates. Next, when the azimuth of the both shoulders line 4 according to the rotation of the user's body is within the range of the acceptance angle (e.g., ±0.5°) compared with the aligning azimuth, the processor 50 outputs the reporting signal through the output unit 60. As a result, the user can find the address setup position for aligning the both shoulders line 4 to be parallel to the destination line as shown in FIG. 7.

While the aligning apparatus 100 has been described to be formed by one apparatus as shown in FIG. 1 in the first and second exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the aligning apparatus 100 may be formed by at least two modules, and these modules may communicate with each other.
