  • Patent number: 4252262
    Abstract: A method for the manufacture of golf clubs of the iron or wood types having the characteristic of improved driving power. This characteristic of greater driving power results from the manufacture of the golf clubs with a flexible striking face. The flexible striking face is designed to vibrate in simple harmonic motion of the same frequency as the struck golf ball. The flexible striking face design is such that the frequency of vibration of the striking face is constant across its face and the amplitude of vibration is constant across its face and, as a consequence thereof, the restoring force of the resilient face combines with the restoring force of the struck golf ball to impart a greater distance to the drive. The method of manufacture comprises casting a head having a neck and body dependent thereon and providing the body with an open cavity behind its face that extends from one edge thereof across a substantial portion of the face.

  • Patent number: 4099824
    Abstract: The mechanically adjustable electric outlet device comprises a plurality of female receptacle plugs connected in parallel circuit and a semi-stiff, spring-metal wire which is resiliently formed into a circle of variable diameter so as to mount at the top of Christmas trees of various diameter trunks. One end of the electric outlet device terminates in a conventional male plug which energizes the device by connecting to a power source while the other end of the device terminates in a fastener part which may fasten to second fastener means of any of the female receptacle plugs to provide circular mounting around Christmas tree trunks of various diameters.

  • Patent number: 4049201
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for dry, mechanical separation of heavy and light materials dispersed in substances. The apparatus comprises a screened funnel through which the substance is introduced, a cylindrical tube mounted on support means and inclined to the vertical, means to spread the substances, within the cylinder a second screened opening through which heavy material passes and exit means for the light weight, waste material.

  • Patent number: 4034813
    Abstract: A portable combined fire extinguisher and audible alarm that may be removably disposed at a desired location to automatically eject a stream of pressurized fire extinguishing fluid into an adjacent area upon the temperature of the ambient atmosphere surrounding the invention rising above a predetermined maximum. The invention is particularly useful in protecting areas in which highly combustible materials such as oily waste rags and the like are stored. The invention, when removably supported at a desired location, is adjustable horizontally through substantially 180.degree., and a discharge nozzle of the invention is capable of being disposed at any desired vertical angle relative to the area to be protected.

  • Patent number: 3965341
    Abstract: A method of correcting the non-linearity of flow meters to extend their usable range, including alternate means to manually enter fluid viscosity by front panel switches or by an analog to digital converter from a temperature probe. The flow rate computer computes frR, divides it by fr/Mfi to yield an output signal fo = MRfi which is a more accurate and linear signal versus flow representation. The flow rate computer extends flowmeter linear range by as much as 100 to 1.
