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 |
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 |
20100090370 | METHOD FOR MOLDING GOLF BALL COVER OVER SOFT CORE - A method for compression molding a thin cover layer over a large or soft core golf ball, wherein the process includes mold press speed of closure, pressure within the mold cavities, temperature of materials being molded, and the movement of the compression press is controlled by as the mold position rather than any fixed amounts of time. A Ram press is moved in a very controlled fashion during the low pressure stage by a servo controller, and is governed by data fed to a control computer by a linear potentiometer, which allows for a very deliberate movement, especially over the last 0.4 inches of closing. A pressure transducer and thermocouples determine the flow point of the cover layer. Once the cover material starts to flow, the Ram press is triggered into a high pressure close wherein the cover layer is formed and then finally cooled. | 04-15-2010 |
20110109010 | METHOD OF CASTING URETHANE FOR A GOLF BALL COVER - The present invention is directed relates to a method of applying a thin thermoset or thermoplastic cover over a golf ball subassembly by simultaneously dispensing polyurethane into multiple molds while using multiple mixers from multiple polyurethane sources. The method employs a continuous conveyor system wherein pre-heated first (top) and second (bottom) mold halves are pre-heated and pre-sorted prior to a polyurethane material being deposited in each mold half, preferably, each mold half comprises four cavities. A rotary table maneuvers the mold halves into position to receive a shot of polyurethane in each cavity. The polyurethane is dispensed from two separate mixers, each mixer having a pair of dispensing nozzles capable of shuttling back and forth between the cavities. To maintain process integrity, it is imperative that polyurethane dispensed into a particular top mold half and the polyurethane dispensed into the corresponding mated bottom mold half be from the same polyurethane mixer. The method of the invention provides a mechanism to maintain that the shot of polyurethane in each mold half is dispensed from the same mixer. | 05-12-2011 |

20140087725 | Circuit-Switched Call Delivery - Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to implementing circuit-switched call delivery. A mobile terminating call for user equipment (UE) is received. A first mobile switching center is determined to perform a first call termination attempt for the mobile terminating call by sending a provide roaming number (PRN) request with a pre-paging supported parameter to the first MSC. The first call termination attempt can include instructing the UE to return to a CS network domain to receive the call. A message indicating that the UE is not connected to the first MSC is received. It is determined whether the UE is in a registration process within a duration of time. If the registration succeeds, a second call termination attempt for the mobile terminating call is made via the second MSC. | 03-27-2014 |

20110310216 | COMBINING MULTIPLE BIT RATE AND SCALABLE VIDEO CODING - Video streams are generated using a combination of Multiple Bit Rate (MBR) encoding and Scalable Video Coding (SVC). Capabilities and requests of the clients are used in determining the video streams to generate as well as what video streams to deliver to the clients. The clients are placed into groups based on a resolution capability of the client. For each resolution grouping, MBR is used for generating spatial streams and SVC is used for generating temporal and quality streams. | 12-22-2011 |
20110310217 | REDUCING USE OF PERIODIC KEY FRAMES IN VIDEO CONFERENCING - The generation and delivery of key frames to clients of a video conference are performed in response to a need for a synchronization point. Instead of automatically sending a key frame periodically to each of the clients in the video conference, a key frame is sent to one or more clients upon the occurrence of an event in the video conference. For example, a key frame may be sent to a client when the client joins the video conference. A key frame may also be sent to a client that has packet loss, upon the request of a client, a speaker change within the video conference, when a new stream is added by the client, and the like. The clients in the video conference that are not affected by the event continue to receive predicted frames. | 12-22-2011 |
20110316965 | COMBINING DIRECT AND ROUTED COMMUNICATION IN A VIDEO CONFERENCE - A video conference cross-links at least a portion of the clients for point to point communication while still using a video conference server. The video conference server continues to manage some aspects of the video conference for the cross-linked clients and may be configured to perform audio/video processing for some of the clients in a video conference. For example, the video conference server may perform audio/video processing and routing of streams for clients that do not have the capabilities to perform the processing directly. Clients that are able to process their audio/video needs may directly connect to other clients through cross-links while still using the video conference server for management. | 12-29-2011 |
