  • Patent number: 4200131
    Abstract: There is disclosed a device for carrying golf clubs which includes a molded upper plate having individual holes for the handles and shafts of the clubs to be carried and having contoured surfaces coinciding with the loft angle of golf club irons so that each iron is maintained with its striking face in contact with a mating surface while it is being transported in the device, and with each contoured surface being longer than the corresponding surface of the golf club whereby, when the device is oriented with the gold clubs vertical, the contoured surfaces extend to a higher elevation than any portion of the heads of the golf clubs.

  • Patent number: 4062012
    Abstract: A radar signal processor employs digital circuits to provide two adaptive resholds which act to reject clutter and noise. A digital constant false alarm unit serves to set the first threshold level by comparing an expected false alarm number with a number of noise pulses occurring in a noise gate generated during the radar dead time. The second threshold is set by establishing a background average. The existence of a target in a particular range cell in relation to the second threshold is determined by comparing its hit count with the hit counts of two range cells proximately following it and the two range cells proximately preceding it. A target is automatically acquired in range and velocity by using a memory unit and constructing a velocity-range matrix which identifies range and velocity by pattern recognition techniques.
