Dual core golf ball incorporating a solid spherical inner core component that is immovably centered within three outer core compression moldable parts and method of making same

Dual core golf ball constructions achieving consistent and repeatable concentricity by incorporating/using an assembly of dual core components comprising a solid spherical inner core component and three outer core components that are collectively compression molded about the solid spherical inner core component to create an outer core layer thereabout. The three outer core components include a first half-shell, a second half-shell; and a ring-shaped securing plate such that the solid spherical inner core component is immovably centered within the outer core layer. Each of the first half-shell, the ring-shaped securing plate, and the second half-shell is comprised of the same rubber composition(s) and possess strong cohesive and adhesive bonds at parting lines between the three molded assembly parts and collectively create an outer core layer having one or more uniform property profile, such as a hardness gradient throughout, without interruption at parting lines between the three outer core components.

A machine and method of forming an article generally comprising extruding a molten bead of thermoplastic material along x, y and z axes in forming an article consisting of a strata of such material, and passing a roller over each applied portion of such molten bead to compress such bead portion, enhancing the fusion of engaging plies of such extruded material.

Marine Decking with Sandwich-Type Construction and Method of Making Same
20230101522 · 2023-03-30 · ·

A marine deck member and the process for forming the same are provided. The marine deck member comprises a sandwich-type composite panel made by a compression molding process. In such a process, the panel is made by subjecting a heated stack of layers of material to cold pressing in a mold. The cellular core has a 2-D array of cells, with end faces open to the respective layers or skins. The surface traction of this type of composite panel can be enhanced for marine deck applications by controlled debossing, or embossing, of the first skin while it cools in the compression mold. The debossing effect can be affected by applying pressurized gas, e.g., pressurized air, onto the outer surface of the first skin while in the compression mold. The embossing can be affected by applying vacuum pressure on the outer surface of the first skin while in the compression mold.

20230067711 · 2023-03-02 ·

A laminating auxiliary jig includes a base having an accommodating recess, and a pressing plate pivotably attached to the base and having a positioning trough. When the pressing plate is opened, it is separated from the accommodating recess, which a first composite material is put into. When the pressing plate is closed, it is located in the accommodating recess and pressed on the first composite material, the positioning trough communicates with the accommodating recess, and at least one middle foam material is put into the positioning trough to be positioned and attached to the first composite material. When the pressing plate is opened again, a second composite material is put into the accommodating recess to be attached to the middle foam material. Therefore, the laminating auxiliary jig helps a user quickly complete laminating the multilayer composite material. The method of using the laminating auxiliary jig is also provided.
