Treatment For Facilitating Bonding Between Golf Ball Layers And Resultant Golf Balls

View page
US Patent:
6609982, Aug 26, 2003
Filed:
Jul 26, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/912517
Inventors:
Edmund A. Hebert - Fairhaven MA
Mitchell E. Lutz - Fairhaven MA
Thomas Mydlack - Rochester MA
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
A63B 3704
US Classification:
473371, 473361, 473351
Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards a multilayer golf ball which comprises a core having a treated surface and a cover layer having a plurality of dimples, wherein the cover layer is disposed concentrically about the core and bonded to the core preferably without an adhesive. The multilayer golf balls may alternatively or additionally be formed such that at least one layer of the core has a treated surface and is bonded, preferably without an adhesive, to an adjacent layer. The golf balls may be prepared by forming a first portion of a golf ball, wherein the first portion has a surface, treating the surface of the first portion to increase the adhesion thereof, and bonding at least a portion of a second portion concentrically about the surface of the portion.

Mold-Half

US Patent:
6644948, Nov 11, 2003
Filed:
Jun 18, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/881733
Inventors:
Thomas L. Mydlack - Rochester MA
Mark Roger Verronneau - Acushnet MA
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
B29C 3310
US Classification:
425116, 425215, 425812
Abstract:
The present invention is an improved mold-half that is useful in forming golf ball covers or other layers. The mold-half is particularly useful for compression molding a thin polyurethane cover over a golf ball formed from a plurality of inner layers. The mold-half includes a cavity and a land area surrounding the cavity. The land area has an upper surface and at least one vent in fluid connection with the cavity via a chamber formed by a recessed circumferential ledge adjacent the cavity. The ledge controls the flow of excess layer material from the cavity to each vent.

Method Of Making Golf Balls

US Patent:
6936205, Aug 30, 2005
Filed:
Nov 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/986928
Inventors:
Christopher Cavallaro - Lakeville MA, US
Matthew F. Hogge - Mattapoisett MA, US
Mitch E. Lutz - Fairhaven MA, US
Thomas L. Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Jeffrey L. Dalton - North Dartmouth MA, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
B29C039/10
US Classification:
264229, 264275, 2642791, 264348
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method of making a golf ball including the steps of cooling a golf ball subassembly such that the golf ball subassembly undergoes a volumetric reduction, and applying a cover layer over the volumetrically reduced golf ball subassembly. The method can further include a three-step curing process after applying the cover layer. The three-steps include maintaining mold halves containing the covered subassembly at a first temperature, heating the mold halves to a second temperature, then maintaining the mold halves at a third temperature. Also, the method can include cooling the cover materials in a mixer so that higher levels of catalyst can be used.

Automated Flash Removal In Golf Ball Production

US Patent:
6998083, Feb 14, 2006
Filed:
May 21, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/442343
Inventors:
Thomas E. Moore - Bristol RI, US
Thomas L. Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
B29C 37/02
US Classification:
264161, 264334
Abstract:
An automated flash/overflow removal system for the manufacturing of golf balls, including a gripping assembly mounted on a motion system. The gripping assembly includes a plurality of gripping members capable of clamping and releasing the flash/overflow from a golf ball mold portion.

Use Of Patterned, Structured Light To Detect And Measure Surface Defects On A Golf Ball

View page
US Patent:
7162070, Jan 9, 2007
Filed:
Jun 6, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/456298
Inventors:
Paul A Furze - Tiverton RI, US
Thomas L Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
G06F 9/00
US Classification:
382141, 382108
Abstract:
A method of inspecting a golf ball, comprising the steps of providing a golf ball; providing a first light source emitting a first color of light; illuminating a first area of the golf ball with the first light source; providing a second light source emitting a second color of light different from the first color of light; illuminating a second area of the golf ball with a second light; providing a first detector comprising a first filter for transmitting the first color of light and filtering out the second color of light; providing a second detector comprising a second filter for transmitting the second color of light and filtering out the first color of light; rotating the ball about an axis; and detecting a shadow resulting from illumination by the first or second light sources.

Method Of Inspecting A Sphere Without Orienting The Sphere

US Patent:
7170592, Jan 30, 2007
Filed:
Mar 10, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/797798
Inventors:
Thomas L Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Paul A Furze - Tiverton RI, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
G01N 21/88
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
3562371, 356394, 382154
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method of inspecting a curved object comprising the steps of acquiring inspection image data of a curved object using a detector, generating adjusted image data by adjusting the inspection image data, and comparing the adjusted image data with digitally generated image data of a predetermined image. In one embodiment, golf balls are inspected using a line scan camera and a line of coplanar and parallel, diffuse light that uniformly illuminates the camera's scan line. A method of digitally filtering brightness in a digital image is also disclosed.

Method And Apparatus For Automatic Indexing Of A Golf Ball

View page
US Patent:
7387070, Jun 17, 2008
Filed:
Aug 1, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/832127
Inventors:
Thomas L. Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Edmund T. Maher - Fairhaven MA, US
Michael F. Vieira - Acushnet MA, US
Thomas N. Schermerhorn - Holliston MA, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
B41F 17/34
US Classification:
101492, 101493, 101 35, 1014071, 101DIG 40, 101 41
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for applying printing of indicia and logo to golf balls held and indexed by magnetic indexing devices connected to a 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.

Apparatus And Method For Inspecting Golf Balls Using Infrared Radiation

View page
US Patent:
7771777, Aug 10, 2010
Filed:
Jun 14, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/867495
Inventors:
Kevin M. Harris - New Bedford MA, US
William Brum - Raynham MA, US
Brian P. St. Aubin - South Dartmouth MA, US
Thomas L. Mydlack - Rochester MA, US
Paul A. Furze - Tiverton RI, US
Assignee:
Acushnet Company - Fairhaven MA
International Classification:
B05D 1/02
US Classification:
427 10, 4274211, 427 9
Abstract:
A method for inspecting golf balls is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing at least one sensor capable of obtaining images of the infrared radiation emitted from the ball, obtaining at least one image of the ball using the sensor after paint or a coating has been applied to the surface of the ball, and determining whether the liquid was applied evenly on the surface of the ball. Preferably, the image is obtained during the transient period when the solvent in the paint or coating is evaporating. A number of numerical analysis can be used to determine the evenness of the paint or coating.
