Abstract: According to this invention, a conventional pair of golf gloves is provided with
pads (9a,9b) across the palm portions thereof which abut the grip portion of a golf club shaft to
automatically align the shaft for proper gripping. The guide pads are so positioned across
the palm portions of the gloves that when the golf club head is soled on the ground and
the upper and lower gripping hands of a golfer wearing the gloves receive the grip
portion of the club shaft across the palms of the glove and against the pads, the shaft will
lie diagonally across the roots of the fingers and when the hands are closed around the
shaft with the guide pads cradling the grip portion of the golf club distal from the golf
club head, an automatic proper gripping of the golf club will be insured. The guide pads
are substantially parallel to the transverse creases of the hand, lying diagonally across the
roots of the fingers. The pad on the first glove (1a) spans substantially the entire palm of the
hand. The pad on the second glove (1b) spans from about the outer edge ofthe index finger to
about the middle of the metacarpal-phalangeal joint of the second finger of the hand.
Differences between the lengths of the pads allow the use of the gloves without one pad
impinging upon the other.

Patent EP-1601445-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ROCHELLE GARY
IPC: B01D53/14
Filed: 2004-03-04
Abstract: An acid gas such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, or a mixture thereof is removed from gaseous streams using aqueous absorption and stripping processes. By replacing the conventional stripper used to regenerate the aqueous solvent and capture the acid gas with a multipressure stripper (51) that combines acid gas compression with stripping, less energy is consumed. The multipressure stripper is a multistage flash (52, 55, 59) in which the total vapor flow from each stage is compressed and fed to the bottom of the previous flash stage at a higher pressure. In this process, the heat in the water content of the vapor exiting each stage is utilized at a higher pressure in the previous stage. The described stripping process generates the acid gas at a higher pressure without operating the stripper at a higher temperature, thereby reducing the energy. consumption of the system.
