Patent number: 8486322Abstract: The invention provides a method of manufacturing golf balls having a core and least one cover layer which involves injecting a molten cover resin material around a core so as to form a cover layer. The cover resin material is a single resin composition made up of (A) a thermoplastic polyurethane, (B) a polyisocyanate compound and (C) a thermoplastic elastomer other than the thermoplastic polyurethane in a weight ratio (A):(B):(C)=100: {2-50}: {0-50}, and is injected with from 10 to 99% of the total number of isocyanate groups in component B remaining in an unreacted state within the cover resin material. The method of the invention provides a high manufacturability and a good amenability to mass production, and the manufactured gold balls thus obtained have a high rebound and excellent scuff resistance.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2011Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Bridgestone Sports Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroyuki Nagasawa, Hiroshi Higuchi, Motoki Aoyagi, Daisuke Arai

Patent number: 8367781Abstract: The invention provides a golf ball having a core and one or more cover layer encasing the core, wherein at least one cover layer is formed by injection-molding a single resin composition of primarily (A) a thermoplastic polyurethane and (B) a polyisocyanate compound, and at least some polyisocyanate compound in which all the isocyanate groups on the molecule remain in an unreacted state is present in the resin composition. The golf ball has a high rebound, an excellent spin performance and an excellent scuff resistance, and the cover layer-forming resin composition has excellent flow properties and an excellent cover layer manufacturability.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2011Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: Bridgestone Sports Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroyuki Nagasawa, Hiroshi Higuchi, Motoki Aoyagi, Daisuke Arai
