Abstract

Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion having a back portion with a back wall portion. The back wall portion includes at least one rib portion extending from a center portion of the back wall portion toward a perimeter portion of the back wall portion. The at least one rib portion includes a rib portion height, a rib portion width, and a rib portion length. The golf club head also includes a filler material in the hollow body portion coupled to the rib portion. The rib portion width may vary along the rib portion length. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

Claims (50)

1. A golf club head comprising:

a hollow body portion comprising an interior portion, an exterior portion, a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a heel portion with a heel portion edge, a front portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, and a back portion with a back wall portion, the back wall portion comprising:

an outer surface;

an inner surface;

a perimeter portion;

a port connecting the exterior portion to the interior portion; and

at least one rib portion located between the port and the perimeter portion, the at least one rib portion having a rib portion height, a rib portion width, and a rib portion length, the rib portion height extending into an interior of the hollow body portion from the inner surface;

a face portion coupled to the front portion; and

a filler material in the hollow body portion coupled to the back wall portion and the face portion,

wherein the rib portion height or the rib portion width is greater than or equal to 0.020 inch (0.508 mm) and less than or equal to 0.150 inch (3.810 mm).

2. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 , wherein the rib portion height or the rib portion width is greater than or equal to 0.040 inch (1.016 mm) and less than or equal to 0.100 inch (2.540 mm).

3. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 , wherein the rib portion length extends diagonally between the port and the perimeter portion.

4. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 , wherein the rib portion height varies along the rib portion length.

5. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 , wherein the rib portion width varies along the rib portion length.

6. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 , wherein the port comprises a port wall extending from the back wall portion into the interior portion of the hollow body portion, and wherein the at least one rib portion extends from the port wall toward the perimeter portion.

7. A golf club head as defined in claim 1 further comprising a mass portion comprising a material having a greater density than a density of a material of the hollow body portion, wherein the port is configured to receive the mass portion.

8. A golf club head comprising:

a hollow body portion having a volume of less than or equal to 100 cubic centimeters, the hollow body portion comprising:

an interior portion;

an exterior portion;

a first material having a first density;

a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a heel portion with a heel portion edge, a front portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, and a back portion with a back wall portion, the back wall portion comprising at least one rib portion extending from a center portion of the back wall portion toward a perimeter portion of the back wall portion, the at least one rib portion comprising a rib portion height, a rib portion width, and a rib portion length; and

a port in the center portion of the back wall portion, the port connecting the exterior portion to the interior portion;

a mass portion coupled to the hollow body portion, the mass portion comprising a second material having a second density greater than the first density; and

a filler material in the hollow body portion coupled to the at least one rib portion,

wherein the rib portion width or the rib portion height varies along the rib portion length.

9. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the port is configured to receive the mass portion to close the port.

10. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the mass portion is coupled to the back wall portion, and wherein the at least one rib portion is between the port and the mass portion.

11. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the port comprises a port wall extending from the back wall portion into the interior portion of the hollow body portion, and wherein the at least one rib portion extends from the port wall toward the perimeter portion.

12. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the rib portion height or the rib portion width is greater than or equal to 0.020 inch (0.508 mm) and less than or equal to 0.150 inch (3.810 mm).

13. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the rib portion height or the rib portion width is greater than or equal to 0.040 inch (1.016 mm) and less than or equal to 0.100 inch (2.540 mm).

14. A golf club head as defined in claim 8 , wherein the rib portion length extends diagonally between the port and the perimeter portion.

15. A golf club comprising:

a shaft having a first end and a second end;

a grip coupled to the first end; and

a golf club head coupled to the second end, the golf club head comprising:

a hollow body portion comprising an interior portion, an exterior portion, a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a heel portion with a heel portion edge, a front portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, and a back portion with a back wall portion, the back wall portion comprising:

an outer surface;

an inner surface;

a perimeter portion;

a port connecting the exterior portion to the interior portion; and

at least one rib portion located between the port and the perimeter portion, the at least one rib portion having a rib portion height, a rib portion width, and a rib portion length, the rib portion height extending into the interior portion from the inner surface;

a face portion coupled to the front portion; and

a mass portion coupled to the hollow body portion, the mass portion comprising a material having a greater density than a material of the hollow body portion,

wherein the rib portion height or the rib portion width is greater than or equal to 0.020 inch (0.508 mm) and less than or equal to 0.150 inch (3.810 mm).

16. A golf club as defined in claim 15 , wherein the rib portion length extends diagonally between the port and the perimeter portion.
