Abstract: Fixed welding apparatus includes a torch body, a pusher rod, a reverse collet, and a collet. The pusher rod is slidably received within an opening formed through the torch body. A portion of the reverse collet is positioned in an opening formed in the pusher rod. The collet is attached to the torch body and contacts with the reverse collet. The torch body also may include at least one notch formed in its side to receive a retractable arm member, which slidably fits in the notch. The fixed welding apparatus may also include a torch housing, an adjusting knob and shaft, a beveled gear set attached to the shaft, an adjusting screw attached to the gear set, and an indicator block which attaches to the retractable arm.

Abstract: A device for measuring and adjusting the angle of lie and face angle of a golf club including a club head supporting base with a reference surface for supporting the sole of a golf club. A measuring element is indexed to the reference surface to contact the face of a golf club and to indicate the face angle thereof.A shaft supporting and club adjusting structure is secured to the base and includes measuring apparatus referenced to the sole reference surface for measuring the lie angle of the golf club and for producing golf club adjustments to selectively vary the lie and face angles of the golf club.

Abstract: A golf club adjusting apparatus for modifying the relationship of the club shaft and head which includes a base for supporting the club at spaced first and second preselected positions. A force applying element positioned intermediate the first and second support positions for controlled, precise club adjustment without damage, and an adjustment measuring element for determining the degree of adjustment.
