Abstract: A golf club head includes a body defining an interior cavity. The body includes a sole positioned at a bottom portion of the golf club head, a crown positioned at a top portion, and a skirt positioned around a periphery between the sole and crown. The body has a forward portion and a rearward portion. The club head includes a face positioned at the forward portion of the body. The face defines a striking surface having an ideal impact location at a golf club head origin. Embodiments include club heads for a fairway wood that at least one of a high moment of inertia, a low center-of-gravity, a thin crown and a high coefficient of restitution. A sleeve for easily disconnecting a shaft to the club head allows for selective adjustment of the head's loft and lie angle.

Abstract: An automatic cut and transfer coiler and spooler apparatus, system and method for use generally comprising a rotatable turret with two independently driven spindles thereon wherein the drives for the independent spindles are attached to the turret for selectively rotating the spindles about their own axis independently.

Abstract: Golf club fitting systems can include a golf club head along with multiple alternative adjustment sleeves that each mate with the club head to modify loft and lie angles. Each adjustment sleeve can include a first portion having a respective longitudinal axis and configured to mate and coaxially align with a hosel of the golf club head, and a second portion having a respective longitudinal axis angularly offset from the longitudinal axis of the first portion and configured to mate and coaxially align with a golf club shaft. Each different adjustment sleeve can be configured to alter a position of the golf club head relative to a golf club shaft by a different adjustment value relative to each other. Fitting systems can also include a shaft sleeve that can join any of various different shafts with any of the adjustment sleeves. Fitting systems can also include additional club heads.

Abstract: Method of making a blow molded article from a preform including: a) providing a preform of a thermoplastic material having a plurality of effect structures each having an effect surface having a normal with an orientation, the preform having a body with one or more walls and an opening, wherein at least a portion of the one or more walls of the preform has a three-dimensional pattern of cavities and/or protrusions thereon; and b) blow molding the preform to form a blow molded article, wherein the step of blow molding the preform changes the orientation of the normal of at least some of the effect surfaces of the effect structures to create a visual effect in at least one wall of the blow molded article.

Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for a new and improved coiling system that provides sensors to a computer control on the traverse while winding wherein the sensors mounted on the traversing mechanism to detect flanges of different width or reel and spools as the flanges are approached during winding that provides an automatically turnaround point without human intervention and is computer controlled with communication from the sensor.

Abstract: A golf club head comprises a body, a track formed in or attached to the body and having a length and a weight and weight retainer. The weight is continuously repositionable such that it can be positioned at any selected point along the track between its ends. The weight has a major dimension, and the weight retainer comprises a fastening member having a diameter not greater than about one half of the major dimension of the weight.

Abstract: In some cases, a delivery service system may include a handheld electronic device for use with a delivery service (e.g., a grocery delivery service). When operating in a voice input mode, the handheld electronic device may record and store audio data in memory. The stored audio data may be communicated from the handheld electronic device (e.g., via a Wi-Fi connection) to the delivery service for speech processing. When operating in a scanner input mode, the handheld electronic device may record and store item identifier information (e.g., barcode data) in memory. The stored data may be communicated to the delivery service for item identification processing. In some cases, a user interface associated with the delivery service may allow the user to review and confirm an order prior to submission of the order for delivery.

Abstract: The present invention is an oscillating traverse coiler for flexible elongated materials apparatus, system, and method for use. The invention may include a reel having a first flange, a second flange, and a barrel between. The invention may include a take-up machine having a computer control that works in communication with a positioning system, which may include a frame, guide rails that traverse the frame with a motor, a computer controller, and a rotating materials guide for rotating pipe flexible elongated materials on the barrel of a reel.

Abstract: A log saw for cutting convolutely wound logs of web material is disclosed. The log saw includes a cutting blade operating in a cutting plane, a log saw clamp for the retention of a convolutely wound log of web material such that the convolutely wound log of web material extends in a log advancing path through to the cutting plane, and controls connected to the clamping device.

Abstract: The present invention is an automatic cut and transfer coiler and spooler apparatus, system and method for use generally comprising a rotatable turret with two independently driven spindles thereon wherein the drives for the independent spindles are attached to the turret for selectively rotating the spindles about their own axis independently.

Abstract: An apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to receive a first model and a second model; determine difference information that is representative of a difference between the first model and the second model and/or between the first task and the second task and/or between the first domain and the second domain; and generate a third model using the first model, the second model and the difference information, wherein the generating of the third model comprises training the third model to perform both of the first task and the second task and/or to operate on both the first domain and the second domain.
