Publication number: 20240149120Abstract: An iron-type golf club head that includes a rear wall having a variable thickness region. The variable thickness region includes a plurality of recesses formed in an interior surface of the rear wall. A thickness of the rear wall, defined by the recesses, is less than the thickness of the rear wall between the recesses. A body of the golf club head includes a face opening, a toe port, and an internal-weight cavity. The golf club head also includes a strike plate, attached to the body so that the strike plate covers the face opening, and an internal weight, seated in the internal-weight cavity. An internal cavity of the golf club head is configured to receive the filler material through the toe port. A ratio of a minimum rear wall thickness to a minimum face thickness is between 0.15 to 0.65.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Connor Halberg, Adam Warren, Allan Saliba, Scott Taylor, Brian Hill, Conner Sarich, Mike Walker

Patent number: 11361373Abstract: A user device such as a tablet may present search results. Filters may be applied to filter the search results. The filtered search results may include indicia that identify that the filtered search results have been filtered and that individual items within the filtered search results correspond to the applied filter. The indicia may fade out over time as the applied filter expires. The filtered search results may also include the individual items that do not correspond to the applied filter. These individual items may have different indicia applied to them, so as to differentiate them from individual items that do correspond to the applied filter. By providing the indicia, a user is provided with a visual confirmation that the search results have been filtered, what filter has been applied, and a differentiation between the individual items that do and do not correspond with the applied filter.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2017Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Brian Warren, Nathan Ross Mueller, Aaron Michael Strom

Publication number: 20130007621Abstract: A system for learning the names and information about individual members of a group includes a server. A database is in communication with the server and stores the names and likenesses of a first group of individuals. Names and job types of a second group of individuals is stored in the database and the server associates respective members of the first group of individuals with respective individuals of the second group of individuals as a function of the job type of the second group of individuals. A remote computer is in communication with the server. The server causes the display of the associated member of the first group to the respective member of the second group at the remote computer. The remote computer has a graphical user interface. The server causes the name and the likeness of two or more individuals of the first group to be displayed at the remote computer.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2011Publication date: January 3, 2013Inventor: Brian Warren

Patent number: 7385798Abstract: A feedback architecture for ionizers that allows simultaneous adjustment of positive and negative ionizer power supplies. Balance and swing data are fed back to the ionizer through an intermediate module, which permits an extra level of signal processing. Swing information is returned to both power supplies in negative feedback mode. If swing is too high, both power supplies lower output. Balance is fed back in both negative and positive feedback mode. This architecture is compatible with multiple sensors and multiple ionizers.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2007Date of Patent: June 10, 2008Assignee: MKS InstrumentsInventors: Brian Warren, Edward Oldynski, Scott Gehlke

Publication number: 20070159764Abstract: Ionizers are monitored and controlled by a small remote sensor that can read the same as a charge plate monitor located at a different location. Balance amplification to compensate for the remote sensor's small size maintains accuracy. Balance and swing are measured directly. Balance pre-amplification, smoothing, and remote offset correlation is accomplished with signal-processing modules based on historical data. The signal-processing modules are embedded into a microprocessor.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2006Publication date: July 12, 2007Inventors: Brian Warren, Edward Oldynski

Patent number: 7011739Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of sanitizing the shells of eggs, which are used for human consumption and also as hatchlings. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method of sanitizing eggs using an electrostatic sprayer with electrolyzed oxidizing water produced from an electrolyte solution. It is the overall objective of the present invention to provide a method for sanitizing eggs comprising the steps of passing an electrolyte solution through a water electrolysis machine in combination with feed water to produce electrolyzed oxidizing water, and then spraying the eggs with the electrolyzed oxidizing water by using an electrostatic sprayer which creates a negative charge on the spray droplets as they leave the sprayer.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2002Date of Patent: March 14, 2006Inventors: Gene Harkins, Brian Warren

Publication number: 20050145739Abstract: Disclosed is an elongate material management apparatus. It is comprised of a housing removably connected to a base plate that may be opened for the placement of tubing therein. Disposed within the housing is a dual spool to wind and unwind tubing. The dual spool is disposed on a spindle vertically supported on the base plate. The dual spool include a u-turn channel to reverse the direction of the tubing without collapsing it so that the tubing can either wind up or unwind from both of halves of the dual spool simultaneously. The dual spool is energized with a torsional drive that may be a coil spring to wind up unused tubing, one end of which is attached to a slot in the dual spool while the other is attached to the housing to achieve mild tension in the tubing from both directions. The inventive apparatus also includes a ratchet and pawl type device to selectively hold the dual spool in a given position without tension being on the tube when it is not needed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2003Publication date: July 7, 2005Inventors: Jessica Warren, Brian Warren

Patent number: 6831890Abstract: Data cells traversing an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network (10) are passively monitored by probes at two spaced points (12,14). A filtering characteristic is applied to select cells comparatively infrequently, and timestamps or sequence numbers (or both) for the cells selected at each point are forwarded to a correlator (28). The correlator identifies similarities in the temporal patterns of intervals between timestamps received from each probe, and uses these similarities to identify and correlate timestamps relating to occurrence of the same cell at the two monitored points. The correlated timestamps are used to determine parameters indicative of the performance of the network, such as one-way delay, variation in that delay, and rate of cell loss.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2000Date of Patent: December 14, 2004Assignee: Agilent Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Patrick Goldsack, Jeremy Peter William Brown, Brian Warren Woodroffe, Simon Love, James W.

Publication number: 20020091495Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring traffic in telecommunications networks, in particular applied to the problem of recognizing real-time traffic such as voice traffic in packet- or cell-based networks through network traffic characterization. The method classifies data traffic in a packet-based communications network conveying different classes of data through the monitoring of data traffic so as to identify sequences of data packets of unknown class transmitted between a source address and a destination address, subsequently measuring parameters of at least a significant part of the packet sequence and deriving from the measured parameters a probable classification of the data conveyed in the packet sequence.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2001Publication date: July 11, 2002Inventor: Brian Warren Woodroffe
