Vibrating grip assembly

摘要

A vibrating grip assembly for providing a sensory response to excess gripping pressure on a golf club. The vibrating grip assembly comprises a grip body, defined by a rubber cover and a vibrating transducer, and a removable battery compartment. The vibrating grip assembly is configured to be placed around the gripping area of a golf club, replacing the conventional grip on a golf club. In operation, when manual pressure which exceeds a predetermined threshold is exerted in a compressing direction on the rubber cover, the vibrating transducer uses a integrated sensor to convert the mechanical energy from the manual pressure into electrical energy and an integrated actuator to accept the electrical energy and product vibration. This action results in the vibrating grip assembly vibrating in a user's hands in response to manual pressure in a compressing direction which exceeds the predetermined threshold.

主权项

1. A vibrating grip assembly, comprising:
a grip body having a vibrating transducer and a rubber cover; a removable battery compartment adapted to removably attach to said grip body, contacting the vibrating transducer in a manner which enables it to supply electrical power to said vibrating transducer; and wherein said vibrating transducer is configured to cause said vibrating grip assembly to vibrate in response to the application of manual pressure beyond a predetermined threshold in a compressing direction and provide an increasingly strong vibration in response to increasing manual pressure.
