Golf club head with adjustable weighting
First Claim
1. A golf club head comprising:
- a body comprising a first channel and a second channel; and
a weight assembly comprising;
at least one mechanical fastener comprising a head portion and a threaded extension portion;
a top portion comprising a first upper surface, a first lower surface, and a first through-bore sized to receive the head portion of the at least one mechanical fastener; and
a base portion comprising a second upper surface, a second lower surface, a second, threaded through-bore extending from the second upper surface to the second lower surface and sized to receive the threaded extension portion of the at least one mechanical fastener, and a clamping portion extending from the lower surface,wherein the first channel comprises a first floor, at least one first shoulder portion, and a first rail comprising a first upper portion,wherein the second channel comprises a second floor, at least one second shoulder portion, and a second rail comprising a second upper portion,wherein the clamping portion is sized to receive the first upper portion and the second upper portion,wherein, when the clamping portion is engaged with one of the first rail and the second rail, tightening the mechanical fastener pulls the top portion towards the base portion and causes the first lower surface of the top portion to press against the at least one first shoulder portion and the clamping portion to reversibly grip the first upper portion or the second upper portion.

Abstract
A golf club head comprising a means for adjusting the location of the center of gravity and a slidable weight assembly are disclosed herein. The club head comprises two channels, each having at least one shoulder portion, a floor, and a rail extending upwards from the floor. The channels intersect at a junction, and a slidable weight comprising a top portion, a mechanical fastener, a clamping structure, and a keyed, anti-rotation structure is disposed within at least one of the channels. When the mechanical fastener is tightened, the top portion presses against the at least one shoulder portion and pulls the clamping structure upward so that the clamping structure grips the rail. The rails are spaced from one another at the junction, and the clamping structure allows the slidable weight to be moved into either of the channels without being indexed.
