  • Publication number: 20120293906
    Abstract: A method of removing electrostatic charges from the tray (1, 1?) consists in supplying pressurized ionized air, first along the bottom (12, 12?) of the already turned over tray (1, 1?), and then, when unloading the tray (1, 1?), along its side walls (15, 15?) or the inner walls (14) of a compartment (13). The tray (1, 1?), made of dielectric material, protected against negative action of the electrostatic field, is provided inside with an insert (22, 22?) of conducting material, whereas the insert (22, 22?) may have different shapes. The device for unloading compartment trays (1) made of dielectric material is provided with an ionizer (10) disposed horizontally along the linear transporter (5), in the zone of feeding of the trays (1), whereas its nozzles (11) are turned in the direction of the inside of the bottom (12).

  • Patent number: 7431255
    Abstract: A device including a wooden, metal or plastic substrate having at least a back surface, a front surface, and a depth portion located between the back surface and the front surface. Further, the device includes an indentation having a length and a width on the front surface, wherein the length is longer than the width and the length is oriented perpendicular to the depth portion. Further still, the device includes an attachment apparatus connected to the back surface, wherein the attachment apparatus is for attaching the device to an object, such as a golf bag. Yet further, the device includes an adjustable strap connected to the device and traversing at least the width. Thereby, the device allows one or more items, such as a pen, pencil, cigar or cigarette, to be placed in the indentation and securely held in place by the adjustable strap, such as an elastomeric band.

  • Patent number: 7357251
    Abstract: A top cuff for a golf bag that has an outer collar and two sets of arcuate dividers. The first set of arcuate dividers may be angled in a first downward direction relative to the top of the top cuff. The second set of arcuate dividers are angled in a downward direction that is opposite from the downward angled direction of the first set of arcuate dividers. Each arcuate divider from the second set intersects at least one arcuate divider from the first set of arcuate dividers along a central axis extending vertically through the top cuff. The downward angled direction of each of the arcuate dividers allows golf clubs, when placed within each compartment, to be carried away from the central portion of the top cuff and come to rest near the outer collar, thereby minimizing contact between golf clubs.
