Patent number: 7144609Abstract: An artificial turf system which includes a support layer, a base layer, and an outer layer. The support layer comprises an area of selected size and composition. The base layer comprises at least one grid which consists of a plurality of interconnected cells. The base layer is positioned over the support layer. Each cell forming the grid comprises an upstanding tubular member which includes an upper portion, having a first diameter, and a lower portion having a second diameter. The lower cell portion provides the cell with vertical flexibility. The plurality of cells provide the grid with selected vertical movement on contact providing the artificial turf system with improved softness.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2004Date of Patent: December 5, 2006Assignee: U.S. Greentech, Inc.Inventor: Randolph S.

Patent number: 6616542Abstract: A stable artificial putting green which includes a base, an intermediate layer, an artificial putting surface including a pile fabric supported by the intermediate layer, and an edging defining its outer limits. The pile fabric extends over the upper edge and down an outer side of the edging where it is secured. Fine sand fills the interstices about the pile yarns. The intermediate layer includes a PYRACELL layer. The PYRACELL layer includes a synthetic sheet formed with a plurality of raised conically shaped hollow cells over its upper surface. A plurality of drainage holes are formed in spaces between the cells and a non-wove porous web is secured to the lower surface of the sheet. Finally, a coarse sand is laid over the sheet up to substantially top surfaces of the cells.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2001Date of Patent: September 9, 2003Assignee: U.S. Greentech, Inc.Inventor: Randolph S.

Patent number: 6508719Abstract: A golf cup retaining system for use with artificial putting greens. The golf cup retaining system includes a retaining tube positioned in the ground at a selected area of the artificial green. An anchor plate secures with the upper portion of the retaining tube to secure it against lateral movement. Flaps of artificial carpet extend into the upper opening of the retaining tube and the golf cup is positioned against the carpet and into the retaining tube. The carpet acts to secure the cup in position while the cup acts to retain the carpet about the opening into the retaining tube in a taut and smooth condition.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2001Date of Patent: January 21, 2003Inventor: Randolph S.
