Abstract: An apparatus for securing storage vessel inlet pipes may include (i) an actuator, configured to be anchored to an inlet pipe that includes a movable portion, (ii) a cap lock configured to secure to a cap for the inlet pipe and that (a) secures to the movable portion of the actuator when the actuator is in an extended position and (b) releases from the actuator when the movable portion is retracted, and (iii) a control unit configured to, in response to receiving an unlock signal, trigger the actuator to retract the movable portion of the actuator.

Abstract: A golf club head is provided with an electronic display that is visible to a user of the golf club head when the golf club head is in the address position, such as for displaying one or more images to the user. The electronic display may include a memory, a microprocessor, and a battery, and may be configured to communicate with a user operable electronic device via a wired or a wireless communication protocol. For example, the electronic display may be configured to receive one or more images from the user operable electronic device, to store the one or more images in the memory, and to display the one or more images to the user.

Abstract: A golf club head and golf club having large head dimensions, and large face characteristics, as well as unique mass property attributes driven by relationships not often considered in conventional club head design, to achieve a resistance to squaring the club head during a golf swing that is comfortable to the novice golfer, while increasing stability during off-center impacts and obtaining preferred launch characteristics. This is achieved in part via establishing a club head configuration and associated weight distribution to yield a center of gravity location that results in a preferred magnitude of Delta1 and Delta2 values, CG angle, moments of inertia, and associated ratios, relationships, and club head mass property characteristics influenced by these variables to achieve improved performance.

Abstract: A golf club head comprises a body having a face, a crown and a sole together defining an interior cavity. The body having a head-shaft connection system, a rear weight fastened to the golf club head proximate the rear end of the club head and proximate the Y-Z plane, and a front weight port or an internal cap connection system for securing the rear weight; in combination with specific windows regarding the moments of inertia and center of gravity.

Abstract: Golf clubs have a primary alignment feature including a paint or masking line which delineates the transition between at least a first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the face. Some have a primary alignment feature including a paint or masking line which delineates the transition between a first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color and the area of shade or color of the face. A secondary alignment feature includes a paint or masking line that delineates the transition between the first portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the face and a second portion of the crown having an area of contrasting shade or color with the shade or color of the first portion.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention are directed to golf club having a crown, a sole, a face, and a primary alignment feature hard tooled into the golf club head.
