This invention relates to golf balls, and, more particularly, to a golf ball which includes a lattice structure between the core and the cover.
Since the advent of the solid two-piece ball in the 1970's, different companies have tried to manufacture a solid ball with good spin characteristics, good distance, and good feel. Generally, with just a solid rubber core and a thermoplastic cover to work with, a golf ball developer can achieve two of these three attributes to one degree or another. For example, a designer can achieve good spin and distance, but at the detriment of feel. Likewise, a designer can achieve good feel and spin, but only with a loss of distance.
One method companies have used to overcome this shortfall of solid balls is the employment of double covers. Golf balls have been proposed which have two covers, one formed from a soft resin, the other formed from a hard resin. By using combinations of these different covers, some of the design constraints of the two-piece solid ball can be overcome. However, other disadvantages remain. For instance, if a designer uses a soft inner cover and hard outer cover, the ball still lacks adequate spin for certain types of products. If a designer uses a hard inner cover, and a soft outer cover, the product is essentially a distance two-piece ball with an outer cover over it.
Generally, the manufacture of these multi-covered balls encounters one of several problems. First, if both covers are thick enough to be injection molded, the total combined thickness of the two covers over the core is too large to achieve adequate feel, spin, and distance. If this total thickness is reduced, one of the covers must be thinned, and thus must either be compression molded or some type of manufacturing process, such as centerless grinding of the inner layer, must take place. This increases cost and complexity.
Some golf balls include a mantle layer between the core and the cover. The mantle layer may be formed from materials which are conventionally used in covers, for example, ionomer resins, or from materials which are conventionally used in cores, for example, polybutadiene. A mantle layer presents the same difficulties as an inner cover layer.
It is not essential that a full mantle or inner layer be molded on the core, rather just a substructure is sufficient. This substructure should accomplish several important objectives. First, it should provide adequate support for the typically solid rubber core during impact. It should hold the core substantially spherical in shape for maximum energy transfer during and after impact. Secondly, it should not require additional total cover thickness to achieve the desired initial velocity or distance. Thirdly, the substructure should either not, or only slightly, affect the feel and playability of the ball as detected by the golfer.
The invention provides this substructure as a lattice structure, which covers only portions of the core and leaves other portions of the core exposed. The lattice would be structural enough to provide the support required by the core during impact, but innocuous enough to not cause detriment to the playability aspects of the ball.
This lattice could come in any form and preferably comprises a series of bands about the core. In order to obtain some sort of symmetry about the sphere, the lattice may replicate one of the Platonic or Archimedean solids which is projected onto the surface of a sphere. The bands or lattice legs then occupy the same great circle paths as created by the boundary of the polyhedra of the solid. For example, for an octahedron, the lattice would entail three bands circumnavigating the ball, each at right angles from each other. Other solids which could be utilized include, but are not limited to, the cuboctahedron, the icosahedron, and the icosadodecahedron.
The lattice can be used with a homogenous or multi-layered core and with a homogeneous or multi-layered cover or combinations thereof.
The invention will be explained in conjunction with illustrative embodiments shown in the accompanying drawing, in which
FIG. 1 is a fragmentary view of a golf ball which is formed in accordance with the invention and which has a portion of the cover removed to show the lattice structure;
FIG. 2 illustrates a golf ball core and a lattice structure formed in the shape of a spherical octahedron;
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 in which the lattice structure is in the shape of a spherical cubactahedron;
FIG. 4 illustrates a lattice structure in the shape of a spherical icosahedron;
FIG. 5 illustrates a lattice structure in the shape of a spherical icosadodecadron;
FIG. 6 is a fragmentary sectional view through one of the bands of the lattice structure; and
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary sectional view of a golf ball which includes a core, a lattice structure, and a cover.
FIG. 1 illustrates a golf ball 10 which includes a core 11, a lattice structure 12, and a cover 13. Referring also to FIG. 6, the core has a spherical outer boundary 14, and the lattice structure extends outwardly from portions 14 a of the outer boundary of the cores. openings 15 in the lattice expose portions 14 b of the outer boundary or surface of the core.
The cover 13 surrounds the core and lattice structure. The cover includes a spherical outer surface 17 which is provided with dimples 18. Referring to FIG. 7, the cover extends downwardly into the openings 15 in the lattice to contact the exposed portions of the core.
FIG. 2 illustrates a core 20 and a lattice structure 21 which is formed by three intersecting bands or solid portions 22, 23, and 24 which extend at right angles to each other. The bands form a spherical octahedron on the core. A spherical octahedron is formed by projecting a solid octahedron onto the surface of a sphere. The bands 22-24 follow the great circle paths of the projected boundaries or intersections of the sides of the solid octahedron. The bands form openings 25 in the shape of spherical triangles which expose portions of the core.
If desired, the bands or lattice structure can be formed at the same time as the core by molding the core and bands integrally from the same material. The material can be molded in a two-part mold in which the surface of the mold cavity is provided with recesses in the shape of the bands. Referring to FIG. 6, even if the core and lattice are integral, the core is defined by the sphere 14, and the lattice projects outwardly from the sphere.
Alternatively, the lattice can be formed on the core after the core is molded. For example, a molded core can be positioned in a two-part mold in which the surface of the cavity includes spherical portions which contact the surface of the core and recesses which form the bands. The material for the lattice can be injected into the recesses of the mold.
The cover 13 is molded over the core and the lattice. The cover can be injection molded over the core and lattice, or the cover can be formed from half shells which are compression molded over the core and the lattice.
FIG. 3 illustrates a core 28 and a lattice 29 which is in the form of a spherical cuboctahedron. A spherical cuboctahedron is formed by projecting a solid cuboctahedron onto the surface of a sphere. The lattice 29 includes intersecting bands 30 which follow great circle paths and which form openings 31 and 32 in the shape of spherical rectangles and spherical triangles.
FIG. 4 illustrates a core 35 and a lattice 36 which is formed in the shape of a spherical icosahedron. The lattice includes bands 37 which follow segments of great circle paths or geodesics. The bands form 20 openings 38 in the shape of spherical triangles.
FIG. 5 illustrates a core 40 and a lattice 41 which is formed in the shape of a spherical icosadodecadron. The lattice includes six bands 42 which follow great circle paths. The bands form 20 small spherical triangular openings 43 and 12 spherical pentagons 44. The lattice 12 of FIG. 1 is also in the form of an icosadodechadron.
FIG. 6 illustrates the cross sectional configuration of one embodiment of the bands 46 of the lattice. The band includes a curved outer surface 47 and a pair of curved side surfaces 48 and 49. The outer surface 47 has a radius R1, and the side surfaces 48 and 49 have a radius R2. Chord C is the distance between the intersections of the side walls with the spherical surface 14 of the core. The chord extends parallel to a tangent to the spherical surface at the middle of the band and has a length D. The depth d of the band is the dimension between the chord and the outermost point of the outer surface 47.
For a golf ball having a conventional diameter of 1.680 inches, the diameter of the spherical surface of the core can be within the range of 1.450 to 1.600 inches. The thickness or depth of the lattice can be within the range of 0.010 to 0.130 inch. The thickness of the cover in the openings of the lattice can be within the range of 0.080 to 0.230 inch, and the thickness of the cover over the solid areas of the lattice can be within the range of 0.070 to 0.220 inch. However, other dimensions can be used.
Each of the lattice structures which is illustrated in FIGS. 1-6 is formed from bands in the shape of a spherical projection of a solid having polygonal sides. However, the lattice can have other shapes. Both the portions of the lattice which cover the core and the openings in the lattice which expose the core can have any desired shape. However, lattice structures in the shape of Platonic or Archimedean solids provide advantageous symmetry.
The lattice covers enough of the core to provide structural support to the core when the golf ball is impacted with a golf club. The area of the core covered by the lattice structure will typically be between 15% and 85% of the total surface area of the core, with the most effective range being between 35% and 65%. However, the open area of the lattice is such that the cover can be thin enough to provide good feel and playability. The combined coefficient of restitution of the core, lattice, and cover is sufficient to provide advantageous initial velocity and distance. Initial velocity and overall distance can be measured in accordance with standard tests of the United States Golf Association.
The core, lattice, and cover can be made from a variety of materials depending upon the performance characteristics which are desired. The core will typically be compression molded from a homogeneous blend of conventional core material. However, the core could also be injection or transfer molded. The core is preferably formed from a composition which includes polybutadiene as the primary ingredient, a crosslinking agent such as zinc diacrylate, and other conventional core ingredients. The core could also be formed from two or more parts, for example, a center and an outer layer or mantle.
The lattice can be formed from the same or different material as the core. For example, the lattice can comprise primarily polybutadiene or can be formed primarily from cover-type materials such as ionomer resins, balata, and urethanes. Thermoplastic or thermosetting materials can be used.
The cover can be formed from any conventional cover material, for example, ionomer resins, balata, polyurethanes, mixtures thereof, or any other materials which could be used in golf ball covers.

Weekly Roundup showcases stories and information about the students and schools we serve, K12 educators, and important education issues.
Online schools offer customized education for students
(Upper Michigans Source)
Many parents are now looking to the internet for their children's education. The Michigan Great Lakes Virtual Academy is online school run by K12.com. They provide education for students from kindergarten all the way through 12th grade. They are classified as a public school, so they are accredited just like any other public school. This also means the costs for the school would also be covered by the state.
Provider of online school programs entering second phase
(The Daily Times)
One year ago K12 Inc. came to Alcoa to announce it was opening its Family Support Campus in Blount County. With 152 employees on board in phase one, K12 plans on pushing its total employment numbers to more than 330 by the end of phase two in July.

G-E-N-I-U-S: Jackson Township siblings are among youngest Mensa members
(Times Reporter)
Akash and Amrita Vukoti of Jackson Township are among the youngest sibling pairs to be inducted into American Mensa, which is the exclusive high IQ society. Akash, who last year became a Davidson Institute young scholar, is 5 and Armita is a second-grader. They attend an online school.
The Times Reporter reports that Akash and Amrita Vukoti became one of the youngest sibling pairs to be inducted in American Mensa, a distinguished high intelligence organization where members must score in the top 2 percent of the general population on an accepted standardized intelligence test.
In 2013, Akash (then 3) and Amrita (then 5) were tested and accepted into American Mensa. Two years later, the siblings are enrolled at Ohio Virtual Academy, where the flexibility of online learning allows Akash and Amrita to learn at their own pace.
Read more about the Vukoti family, here.
Now in its 13th year, Ohio Virtual Academy (OHVA) is welcoming families with students in grades K-12 to enroll for the 2015-2016 academic year. OHVA is open to all students who reside in Ohio and is hosting information sessions and upcoming community events. To find out more information, visit the OHVA school website.
Former Tech students shepherd video game app to market
Matt Boudah, 19, Avery Rovatti, 18, both of South Deerfield and Aaron Milewski 19, of Gill, show code and their finished product in The Recorder office. The trio, as Temple Studios, have developed a video game app for iOS devices called Shear Resistance. The three know each other from the Franklin County Technical School's programming and web development program, from which Boudah and Milewski graduated in 2013. Rovatti is finishing high school online with the Massachusetts Virtual Academy.
Letter: TN Virtual Academy should stay open

UA Student Headed for Career in Special Education
(Inside Tucson Business)
University of Arizona student Kateri Hitchcock will be the one in cap and gown this May, but it's others who will benefit most from her degree. Hitchcock, a 21-year-old Tucson native, was inspired to study special education because of her brother, Maximilian, 6, who was born with Down syndrome. Kateri, one of seven children, was homeschooled via the Arizona Virtual Academy, a state-certified online public schooling system. Being at home allowed her to help out with her brother, which while challenging at times, has been every bit as rewarding.
POLL: Tennessee Voters Overwhelmingly Agree Public Schools Should Not Be Closed Based Solely on State Tests
(Press Release)
A recent poll by the Tarrance Group found an overwhelming majority of Tennessee registered voters oppose the closing of a public school based solely on results from the state's standardized test. The same poll found voters were even more strongly against state legislators who supported such closings.
Though future in doubt, TN Virtual Academy fights on
While Tennessee's Education Commissioner Candice McQueen has upheld a decision to close the Tennessee Virtual Academy at the end of the year unless its scores continue to improve, school officials are still fighting for it.
Announcing Open Enrollment
School Choice Parents Sue Tennessee Education Commissioner
(TN Watchdog)
Two sets of parents of children attending a Tennessee virtual charter school have filed a lawsuit to keep the school open. State officials want to shut it down after the school year.

11-year old just wants to skate
(Bluff Country News)
Laci Skifter, an 11-year-old, is always in motion…twirling, jumping, running, sliding into a room like she's meant to arrive that way with an audience awaiting her. But at the same time, she could care less if an audience was there – the Minnesota Virtual Academy student's got her confidence spinning and ready for her next figure skating competition on Sunday, March 15, in Wisconsin.

Young authors and young fans and Festival of Books
The University of Arizona mall and surrounding area was filled with thousands today for the first day of the Tucson Festival of Books. The event draws authors from all over for book signings like Amy Tan, Valerie Plame, Dave Barry and more. Among the list of renowned authors is a newcomer of sorts, 14-year-old China Dennington.

This Stock Puzzle consists of a 4×5 board with sliding blocks. One block is 2×2; the other blocks are 2×1, 1×2 and 1×1. The goal of the puzzle is to get the 2×2 block into the bottom position. There are variations of this puzzle based on differences in the initial position, or in the number of blocks of various sizes. It is sometimes known as the Dad's Puzzle, where the theme is a father trying to move around pieces of furniture, or the Pennant Puzzle.
Examples:Video Games
- The "World's Most Difficult Trick" in Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals.
- The furniture puzzle in The 11th Hour.
- The "Last Pedestal of Buddha" in Quest For Karma.
- The Archie Comics Web site has a Java puzzle called "Traffic Jam", in which the player must move Archie's red car to the exit by rearranging other vehicles in the parking lot.
- A physical version of this has been sold under the name "Rush Hour".
- The old Windows game pack came with Klotski: three levels of eight puzzles each, starting with several variants of the puzzle described above, then moving through more complex puzzles and culminating in a 27×27-square puzzle titled Sunshine. This final puzzle, requiring some 2000-plus moves to get the 5×5 block to its home, takes not so much ingenuity as patience: With only five squares' leeway, each square required for a single move of the red piece, work the red piece down to the door, then tediously work it around the edge of the puzzle and back up to the top.
- The GNOME desktop environment includes a straightforward Klotski game in the GNOME Games package.
- And if you thought this kind of puzzle was hard enough, don't even look at Bricks, a Windows/DOS Klotski clone that includes, among other things, magnetic pieces, walls that pop up if you slide something over them, pieces that can't move until a certain "key" piece is brought to a certain position, and unconnected groups of pieces that move as one unit. And that's just in the first installment.
- This type of puzzle appears in the Professor Layton games, naturally. Obscenely difficult versions are also the final puzzles in each game.
- The Adventure Game Companions of Xanth includes an optional Klotski puzzle.
- The video for Rockman.EXE Axess' ending theme, Hikari Todoku Basho, has a short animation of the puzzle being solved in the background near the start of the video.
- The International Obfuscated C Code Contest had a winning entry one year that solved this puzzle. Here's the catch: When presenting its moves and the current state of the board, it would print out valid C code (obfuscated to look like the blocks)... which actually compiled, into a program that did the same thing, but faster. Crowning Moment of Awesome for the entire study of computer science.

Several school districts around the country will not be broadcasting President Obama's address to them. What are these parents and these school districts afraid of? Truth? Intelligence? Insight?
Through the years, and during the duration of this blog, I have been called an atheist, communist, socialist, Jew, Moslem, ad infinitum. So, it is fair to directly deal with it. What belief system do I adhere to? None, but I take from most of them. I am not out to save my own skin for eternity. I do not believe in man-made religions, which major religions are. The three major religions of the Western World all have much of their foundation in the patriarch, Abraham. I like him. In Genesis he confronts God about God's vengeance and over-reaction and brutality, and the God depicted in the Bible certainly needs that confrontation. But none of those 3 major religions follow the "good" parts of the Bible. They claim they do, but simply look at the actions of the people who wear their religion on their sleeve.
Far too many Americans think the group of early leaders in the founding of the United States of America were devout Christians. And the same Americans who believe this place all kinds of denominational or specific Christian interpretations on these guys. While they each held to the various flavors of religion, many were very bigoted and judgmental of others as they are today. It is impossible to make statements about their all being Christians and coming anything close to the truth. At best, regarding religion, many were Deists. Some were atheists. Some were Quakers. And just as today, the silly list of beliefs goes on. Here are some quotes from the early American leaders; judge for yourself...
To those who want to focus the life of Edward Kennedy on one incident in his life for which he should forever have been ashamed, I ask you to simply notice the avalanche of accoldades coming from the conservative leaders, past and present. Note what is being stated clearly by Nancy Reagan, by politicians of the right-wing with names like Hatch, Romney, etc. And from more moderate Republicans like John McCain. Note especially how Teddy was able to work with those across the aisle to pass over 300 bills that bear his name and are now law. Note how he was able to work with President George W. Bush to pass educational legislation.
Hundreds of years ago, Jews began to migrate into Europe. They found prejudice and bigotry everywhere. To survive, they found a kink in the armor of all these "proper" Christian Europeans. Their Christian puritanical streak would not allow them to loan money at a profit or interest. Christian principles had nothing to do with it, it was a way for the rich to remain with their riches and for the poor to stay poor. The Jews, who had no such double-standards and hypocrisy in the matter, found that they could make a living by giving out loans at a rate of interest. Thus evolved the Jewish businessman. The hypocritical Christians never fully forgave them for "taking advantage" of the hypocrisy, and bigotry fluorished through pogroms and other atrocities aimed at Jews. The Holocaust was the culmination of "Christian" retribution against the Jews for being less hypocritical and making a profit from it.

Arthritis Health Center
Understanding Lyme Disease -- Symptoms
In this article
What Are the Symptoms of Lyme Disease?
The first sign of Lyme disease is usually a bull's-eye rash that begins from 3 to 30 days after the bite. This circular rash expands to several inches or more in diameter before disappearing after a few weeks.
Be aware, however, that there's not always a rash, or the rash may look different than a bull's-eye shape.
Recommended Related to Arthritis
Understanding Lyme Disease -- Prevention
Tips for preventing Lyme disease include the following: Because infection does not occur until a tick has been attached for at least 24 hours, a thorough daily tick check can be an effective first-line defense. Be aware that the ticks are very small, although they are larger when engorged with blood. If you spend time outdoors in areas inhabited by deer ticks, wear shoes, long pants tucked into socks or pant legs, and long sleeves. Use insect repellent with 20%-30% DEET around your...
Read the Understanding Lyme Disease -- Prevention article > >
Other early symptoms -- with or without the rash -- may be flu-like feelings of fatigue, headache, fever, sore throat, chills, or body aches.
You may also have vague pains in the joints, without swelling. In about 60% of people who are not treated, this joint pain returns months to years later as painful arthritis, with swelling often in one or both knees. In about 10% to 20% of these cases, Lyme arthritis becomes chronic. Some patients also experience a complex range of other symptoms, including stiff neck, headaches, sensitivity to light, memory loss, mood changes, chronic fatigue, recurring rashes, paralysis of one or both sides of the face, disruption of heart rhythm, and areas of tingling or numbness.
In summary, general symptoms may include:
- A circular, bull's-eye rash, often with a clear center, expanding to 8 inches or more and lasting 2 to 4 weeks
- Any type of rash following a tick bite
- Flu-like symptoms such as headache, fatigue, fever, chills, sore throat, and aching muscles and joints
- Paralysis, most often of the face
- Memory impairment
- Random areas of tingling or numbness
- Skin sensitivities
- Stiff neck
- Sensitivity to light
- Heart palpitations
- Irregular heartbeat, chest pain, or dizziness
- Psychological changes, including depression
If untreated, you may develop a generalized, painful kind of arthritis, with swelling, weeks later.
See Your Doctor About Lyme Disease If:
You think you may have contracted Lyme disease, especially if you notice a bull's-eye rash or if you suddenly develop knee pain and swelling without previous injury or arthritis. Delaying treatment can result in more serious neurological symptoms that can be difficult and sometimes impossible to cure.

Insektroniken behave like primitive insects in terms of communication and perception. Initiated by darkness each entity starts to vivaciously communicate with others by fast light flashes and buzzing sounds, activating one another to endure their existence that can only be silenced by brightness.
A mechanical bicycle lock, like a U-lock, should be attached to a solid and immobile object like a rack to ensure safety. Nevertheless, these racks are quite rare and popular, thus often occupied and although a bicycle lock prevents the bike from being carried away, as it fixes single parts like the frame or the wheels, other parts can be dismounted. Therefore an electronic system, consisting of several sensors, can extend the range of protection with only few components and less effort.
The omnipresence of electromagnetic fields is implied just by simple current flow. We are surrounded by electromagnetic fields which we produce for information transfer or as a by-product of electric infrastructure. Many of those fields are very capacitive and can be harvested with coils and high frequency diodes. Accordingly, I built special harvesting devices that are able to tap into several electromagnetic fields to exploit them and charge a regular battery.

The telephone is an everyday object that connects people. Regrettably the communication reduces the spectrum of perception to the hearing sense. This results in a neglect of emotions. In my project I propose to add the haptic sense to expand this spectrum. My augmented telephone connects two people, spatially separated, on different levels through special modules.

4K UHD HU8500 Series Smart TV - 55" Class (54.6" Diag.)UN55HU8500FXZA
Rated 4.9 out of 5Â by 88 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5Â by deannie Good product- has a few bugs Love this TV- color and picture are absolutely beautiful! Size is great, Smart TV Hub is great almost all the time (have trouble with Pandora locking up and also sometimes going to a station and it shows nothing but grey-) Would love it if there were more Smart Hub items in Music. Love to watch Netflix and MGo on this TV..very realistic. There are some 4UHD films online and the quality is terrific! Another Plus: did not require a sound bar- this TV has several settings and speakers- I find leaving it on Movie gives me consistently great sound even when playing music! May 10, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by 5150radtech Great TV The Samsung HU8500 offers a great combination of picture quality and features in a 4K TV. May 4, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by CoolMilt Remarkable picture! This is my first 50 inch plus LED screen television. I've always had plasma TVs due to the refresh /motion rates. The highest rate. With my plasma sets were @ 600; the motion rate of my new Samsung is 1200 which results in picture clarity that I've never seen before. I will admit that it takes some time to read and understand all the electronic instructions and to understand all the features. I had this set now for two weeks and I'm learning something new every day. Taking the time to read everything is worth it'! April 19, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by DanOB Great TV!!! Great picture and sound. Still learning about the features. Probably has more features than I will use, such as syncing to my phone and online use. Great value also. Definitely would recommend it. May 18, 2015
