Publication number: 20240082667Abstract: A putter-type golf club head that, when oriented in a reference position, includes a striking wall extending in the heel to toe direction and defines a substantially planar striking face for hitting a golf ball. A central elongate member is in communication with, and extends rearward from, the striking wall. An upper surface of the central elongate member includes a plurality of separate alignment elements. At least one of the plurality of alignment elements has an edge that extends substantially parallel to the striking face. The length of the parallel edge is substantially equivalent to the diameter of a golf ball.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: SUMITOMO RUBBER INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Nick TRAHAN, Thomas CARLSON, Christopher R.

Patent number: 10616055Abstract: According to an example, with respect to hash based device configuration management, a device configuration status and a device configuration hash value associated with a configuration file for a device may be ascertained. Based on a determination that the device configuration hash value matches an application configuration hash value, an application configuration status for the device may be modified to correspond to the device configuration status. If there is no match, a determination may be made as to whether the device has permission to locally modify the configuration for the device, and if not, a configuration file may be sent to the device to modify the configuration for the device. If the device has permission, the configuration file that is associated with the device configuration hash value may be requested, and a configuration record associated with the device may be updated based on the requested configuration file.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2018Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: ACCENTURE GLOBAL SOLUTIONS LIMITEDInventor: Christopher R Cooper

Patent number: 9623297Abstract: A golf club may include a front surface, a rear surface having a recess, and an insert at least partially disposed in the recess. The insert may comprise a durometer hardness of less than about 95 Shore A and a cavity having a reinforcement member disposed therein. Preferably, the durometer hardness of the reinforcement member is also less than about 95 Shore A. The insert may further comprise an anterior perimetric boundary having a first length and a posterior perimetric boundary having a second length. The ratio of the first length to the second length may be less than 1 and greater than 0.5. In one example, the insert may have a triangular front profile and a triangular side profile.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: SRI SPORTS LIMITEDInventors: Andrew P. Chick, Christopher R. Cooper, Sharon J. Park, Kevin R. Tassistro

Patent number: 8721472Abstract: An adjustable golf club incorporates instructions into the golf club, and more particularly, in connection with the club head. More specifically, encoded information is visibly provided on the club head, the encoded information relating to the performance of the club head. In addition to the encoded information, a decoder or device for interpreting the encoded performance information is also provided on the club head. The encoded information, in conjunction with the decoder, allows the golfer to easily adjust his or her club head based on playing conditions or his or her swing. Typically, the encoded information relates to a weight of the club head, and may be used to vary the weight of the club head. A method of configuring a putter-type golf club head adaptable to a plurality of configurations is described, as well as a kit for selectively configuring components of a golf club head.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2007Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: SRI Sports LimitedInventors: Jimmy Kuan, Christopher R. Cooper, Michael Sandoval, Adam K. Sheldon, Edward Mendoza
