20080236025 | MOSQUITO TRAP WITH IMPROVED AIRFLOW - An insect trap including a suction device to suck insects into a catch where they are killed or detained. The insect trap also includes a catalytic reactor that uses a portion of the air and a combustible fuel to produce CO | 10-02-2008 |
20080244959 | FLOW RESTRICTOR - A flow restrictor is provided to reduce pressure in the flow of a fluid, such as a hydrocarbon-based fuel. The flow restrictor takes the form of a capillary that is void of any abrupt flow disruptions. The flow restrictor may be used in place of an orifice and provides the advantage that it has a larger diameter than an orifice of similar function. Precipitation is less likely to form on the restrictor and any precipitation is less likely to have an adverse affect on performance. | 10-09-2008 |
20100148473 | Stroller System - A stroller system includes a stroller frame and a seat system. The stroller frame includes first and second frame supports spaced apart from each other, at least one third frame support attaching the first frame support to the second frame support, and wheels rotatably attached to one or more of the frame supports. The seat system is removably attached to the stroller frame and includes a seat support having first and second end portions, and first and second end connectors disposed on the corresponding first and second end portions of the seat support. Each end connector includes a connector body having first and second end portions, where each end portion defines a recess configured to receive one of the frame supports. The recesses arranged substantially in opposition to engage the received support in substantially opposing directions. | 06-17-2010 |

20090031904 | DEVICE FOR AUTOMATIC INDEXING OF A GOLF BALL - The present invention is directed to a magnetic indexing device that can be connected to a conveyor, the device firmly holding a golf ball in a particular orientation for the purposes of printing of indicia and logo on the ball when device and ball move along the conveyor. The device includes a stationary base portion and a rotating cup portion which are magnetically coupled to each other. Each portion has recesses for housing magnets to create a magnetic field of attraction which firmly locks the two portions together. When rotation of the cup portion to the base portion is required, the rotation is substantially friction-free because of a thrust bearing ring set in the base portion. The cup portion is caused to rotate 45° or 90° upon being biasly urged by station locks located on the conveyor. The cup portion has an open bridge section wherein cam surfaces of the station locks can engage and cause the cup portion to rotate, which is necessary for each new procedure, whether it be inspection of the ball, pad printing of indicia and logo, or curing the printed ink with ultraviolet light. | 02-05-2009 |
20090039552 | MOLDING OF GOLF BALL COVERS AND INNER LAYERS - A method of molding an inner or cover layer of a thermoset or thermoplastic material around a golf ball core within a compression mold, in which the core is positioned within a mold cavity containing preformed inner hemispherical shells and holding the opposing mold portions in a closed position wherein heat and pressure are applied. Knockout pins engage the core and layer to biasly eject it from the mold cavity, while simultaneously blowing high pressure air into the mold cavity to aid in releasing the core and layer without the need of a release agent coating the cavities. | 02-12-2009 |
20100059902 | PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR BUFFING GOLF BALLS - A method and apparatus for automatically removing flash along the parting line of a golf ball, especially when the parting line is wavy or corrugated. The apparatus is also effective for removing flash from golf balls that are not completely spherical, or golf balls that are void of tabs or annular ring which are commonly used for alignment. The method removes flash from a golf ball by using a mapping device comprising either a vision orientation system or a laser means incorporating comprises high resolution CCD displacement sensors on a servo controlled vertical axis to properly place the ball in position wherein a cutter and buffer are maneuvered along a mapped contour of the flash that is captured by the coordinated motion logic of a computer. | 03-11-2010 |
20100225022 | PARTS COOLER - Methods for cooling golf ball cores are provided. The methods involve passing a matrix of hot golf ball cores through a die plate to separate individual golf ball cores from the matrix. The die plate has a plurality of holes and each hole is sized to allow a single golf ball core to pass there through. A post-cure unit is arranged to receive the hot cores for additional curing and cross-linking. The hot, cured golf ball cores are then passed through a cooling section where high velocity air is passed over the golf ball cores to achieve the desired level of cooling. The cooling section may contain a fan assembly including an air diffuser to provide sufficient air flow coverage. The cooled golf ball cores may be delivered to a pneumatic delivery system for additional processing. | 09-09-2010 |
20130337135 | APPARATUSES FOR PRODUCING FOOD PRODUCTS FROM FISH AND CHICKEN SHIMS AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Food processing apparatuses and associated methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a fish processing apparatus includes two sets of the shim magazines on the opposite sides of mold(s) for making food products. Food shuttles alternate in transporting food shims from their corresponding shim magazines to a position under the mold(s). An actuator presses the mold(s) against the food shim to form food products. The force of the mold(s) can be controlled to improve separation of the food products from the food shim. Formed food products fall on a conveyor, which transports them away from the apparatus for further processing. | 12-19-2013 |
