  • Publication number: 20240123297
    Abstract: Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion with a front opening and a back opening, a face portion closing the front opening, and a back cover portion that closes the back opening and includes at least 50% of the total area of the back portion, a first port, and a second port. A first mass portion and a second mass portion engage the first port and the second port to close the first port and a second port, respectively. The first mass portion and the second mass portion each includes a material with a greater density than the material of the body portion and the material of the back cover portion. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20240100405
    Abstract: Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion having an interior cavity and a face portion, first and second mass portions, first and second ports on the body portion connected to the interior cavity, a third port inside the body portion connected to the interior cavity and configured to receive the second mass portion, a port sleeve inside the second port and configured to receive the first mass portion, and a filler material inside the interior cavity and coupled to the port sleeve and coupled to a back surface of the face portion. The port sleeve is moveable inside the second port toward and away from the face portion. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 4545842
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for laminating plastics resin films to aluminum. The aluminum surface to be bonded is treated with a coating composition consisting essentially of an aqueous solution of polyacrylic acid or esters thereof and at least one acid selected from the group consisting of H.sub.2 ZrF.sub.6, H.sub.2 TiF.sub.6 and H.sub.2 SiF.sub.6. After this coating has dried, the plastics resin film is bonded to the aluminum, using dry laminating adhesives.

  • Patent number: 4199358
    Abstract: In a method of making decorative panels, a liquid masking material is applied to a surface of a panel, and is cured to form a substantially solid masking layer on the surface. A pattern comprising at least one unmasked area and at least one masked area is formed in the masking layer either simultaneously with the application of the liquid masking material or subsequent to the curing step. The surface of the panel is then treated to render the unmasked areas of the surface of the panel visually distinguishable from the masked areas. In one embodiment of the invention the masking layer is elastomeric and the surface of the panel is treated by sandblasting, after which the masking layer is removed. The entire process may then be repeated to provide a dual density effect. In another embodiment of the invention an asphaltum masking layer is applied to a mirror forming layer on a panel, after which the portions of the mirror forming layer corresponding to the unmasked areas are chemically removed.
