Patent number: 6450894Abstract: A golf putter head has a central portion made of a relatively light weight material such as a light alloy of extruded aluminum or extruded plastic alloy. To further reduce the weight of the central portion, this portion may be extruded and the face plate formed from a light polymer or rubber material. The toe and heel portions of the head are separately formed of a relatively heavy material such as sintered tungsten or tungsten copper. The toe and heel portions are similar to each other and are attached to the central portion by means of pins which fit into opposing holes formed in the ends of the central portion and the toe and heel end portions as well as well as screws which fit through apertures in the end portions and engage threads formed in the central portion. Employing a central portion which is much lighter in weight than the end portions provides an anti-twisting motion of inertia to the club head.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2000Date of Patent: September 17, 2002Assignee: CIPA Manufacturing Corp.Inventors: Donald J. C. Sun, Ching-Chung Chiu

Patent number: 5766537Abstract: A method is used for manufacturing a seamless tubular member by a plastic and metal powder mixture. A liquid DOP material is added into the plastic and metal powder mixture so as to soften the metal powder material and so as to decrease the melting point of the metal powder material to a melting point closer to that of the plastic material. The plastic and metal powder mixture and the liquid DOP solution material are disposed in a container of a protruding mechanism and are heated to a temperature greater than the melting point of the plastic material so as to melt the metal powder material and the plastic material simultaneously. The melted plastic and metal mixture is then injected into a mold cavity so as to form the seamless tubular member.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 1997Date of Patent: June 16, 1998Inventor: Ching-Chung Chiu
