Description

BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION 1. Field of the Present Invention The present invention relates generally to an auxiliary training device for golf, and more particularly, to an auxiliary device for practicing golf swing posture. 2. The Prior Arts Golf players know that the correctness of the swing posture is very important. First, the player must adjust the stance from the tee off, and then the tee off and backswing to the top position of the backswing. This process starts with the upper body drives the lower body to move, and then changes from the top position of the backswing to the downswing position, followed by impact, follow-through to the final closing position. This process is the lower body driving the upper body to move. The process needs to be executed through the coordination and integration of muscles in all parts of the whole body from head to toe, including the upper and lower body, and the rotation of the head, arms, wrists, shoulders and waist to the shift of the center of gravity of the feet to fully release the power of the club head and hit the ball in an accurate direction and distance. It takes constant practice and correction before a player can master the trick. Generally, when beginners perform swing exercises, they will first ask a coach to help to guide and correct the swing movements and postures so that the club head can be on the correct path of the backswing or downswing phases during the swing. However, due to the swing path is an invisible abstract concept determined only by the coach's own experience, it is therefore often impossible to effectively and accurately pin point the problem with the movement. In addition, during subsequent self-practice without a coach, the club-holding hand posture is hard to maintain. Also, because of persistent swing practice, it is easy to develop the wrong swing posture, making it even more difficult to correctly adjust the posture in the future. SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION A primary objective of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary device for practicing golf swing posture that allows the user to correctly hold the club and move to the backswing position after the tee off, or to maintain the posture of holding the club during the downswing from the backswing position, impact the ball, and follow-through, so as to maintain the correct posture, and then grow accustomed to and develop the correct swing execution. In order to achieve the above objective, the present invention provides an auxiliary device for practicing golf swing posture, comprising: a housing, having a first housing base and a second housing base in an open manner; a clamping assembly, installed on the first housing base, and for clamping onto a shaft of a golf club; and a sector assembly, folded and stacked into a long square multi-layered structure forming an sector-shaped fan after unfolding. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping assembly comprises a pair of clamps and a control knob; the pair of clamps is disposed on the first housing base and can be opened or closed; the control knob is disposed on the first housing base and is connected with the pair of clamps; when the control knob rotates, the pair of clamps is opened or closed. In a preferred embodiment, semi-circular arc-shaped jaws are disposed on wall surfaces of the pair of clamps facing each other. In a preferred embodiment, an elastic member is disposed at a pivot joint of the pair of clamps and the first housing base, the elastic member is in contact with the pair of clamps and the pair of clamps is driven by the elastic member to open in the absence of external force. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping assembly further comprises a top latch, located in the first housing base and able to move over a short distance without breaking away; the top latch is embedded with a nut, and the control knob is provided with a screw; after assembly, the screw penetrates the first housing base and extends into the first housing base to connect with the nut; the screw is driven to rotate by rotating the control knob, and the top latch is synchronously driven to move because the screw is connected to the nut. In a preferred embodiment, the pair of clamps has an inclined surface facing an end connecting to the top latch, the top latch has a guide surface with double inclined surfaces corresponding to each inclined surface respectively, and the pair of clamps is opened or closed according to different contact states between the guide surface and the inclined surfaces of the clamps. In a preferred embodiment, the sector assembly comprises a locking unit, a plurality of fan ribs and a fan cloth; the fan cloth is arc-shaped and adheres to the plurality of the fan ribs, and the fan ribs are stacked together with one end locked together by the locking unit; when the locking unit is in an unlocked state, the plurality of fan ribs can be stacked together after folding, or can form an arc-shaped fan by unfoldin
