Patent number: 11547909Abstract: A method and a bowling ball enclosure are provided for encasing and reducing temperature fluctuations of and within a bowling ball. The bowling ball enclosure includes a flexible inner vapor barrier layer and a flexible outer layer that are made of a polymer material, the inner layer forming an interior region that receives the bowling ball. The bowling ball enclosure also includes a bottom portion and a top portion, wherein the top portion is positionable from a first position to a second position to encapsulate the bowling ball. In the first position, the top portion being in an open position to receive the bowling ball into the interior region. In the second position, the top portion being in a closed position to encapsulate the bowling bowl. A thermal resistor can be located between the bowling ball enclosure and a support surface.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: Magnum Shielding CorporationInventors: Cameron F.

Patent number: 8360478Abstract: A hose fitting assembly is provided, wherein the components are operably engaged with a length of hose to form a sacrificial construction. An end fitting having an insertion stem is disposed within a portion of the hose, wherein a clamping sleeve receiving a length of the hose threadingly engages the end fitting. A swaging collar is slide along the hose to threadingly engage the clamping sleeve, such that complete threaded engagement of the swaging collar and the clamping sleeve circumferentially compress and deform a portion of the clamping sleeve to clamp a portion of the hose intermediate the clamping sleeve and the insertion stem, and partially deformed threads on at least one of the clamping sleeve and the swaging collar. The hose fitting assembly can cooperatively engage a flexible high pressure metal braided hose, wherein the metal braid is formed of a less than full tensile strength steel, such as half hard stainless steel.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Magnum Shielding CorporationInventors: Scott L.
