Abstract: The blade heads (11) of golf club irons are provided with a protuberance or knob (23) on the bottom sole faces (20) thereof to minimize "fat" shots, reduce the size of divots, and to accommodate tilting of the club head on the turf laterally and in front to rear directions without spoiling the shot. The protuberance or knob (23) on the sole (20) is positioned rearwardly from the striking face (17) of the head (11), extends lengthwise about 1/3 the length of the sole (20) and merges upwardly to the rear face (21) of the head (11). The front face (24) of the knob (23) is curved or arcuate in a top to bottom plane and also in a longitudinal plane. The rear face (29) of the knob (23) is curved upwardly to smoothly merge into and mate with the rear face (21) of the head (11). The maximum depth (26) of the knob (23) is on the axis of the centre of balance or "sweet spot" (30) of the head (11). While the longitudinal length of the knob remains substantially the same for all irons, the fore-to-aft width and the depth of the knob will increase with the loft or angular inclination of the striking face (17) of the head (11) the fore-to-aft width of the sole. Since the knob (23) accommodates lateral tilting of the club head, a single standard shaft inclination and length will accommodate golfers of all heights.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for protection against fault currents in power supplies, having an energy storage means, such as frequency converters for the operation of three-phase motors. The arrangement comprises two identical detector windings in the supply lines leading to the power supply so that a differential current detector winding connected with such detector windings causes a circuit breaker device to be actuated when a given value is exceeded. This circuit breaker device interrupts all the supply lines between the power supply and a load connected therewith by means of switching paths. This ensures that despite the energy stored in the power supply there is rapid and reliable switching off of the load should a fault current occur.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods which utilize anti-idiotypic antibodies, or fragments thereof, for tumor immunotherapy or immunoprophylaxis. Monoclonal anti-idiotypic antibodies which recognize an idiotype present on a second antibody or on a T lymphocyte or on an immune suppressor factor which is directed against a defined tumor antigen, can be used for immunization against a tumor, for immune anti-tumor activation or inhibition of suppression, or for in vitro activation of lymphocytes to be used in adoptive immunotherapy. The anti-idiotypic antibodies, or fragments thereof, can also be used to monitor anti-antibody induction in patients undergoing passive immunization to a tumor antigen by administration of anti-tumor antibody. In another embodiment, administration of T lymphocytes which express an idiotype directed against a defined tumor antigen can be used to transfer delayed-type hypersensitivity to the tumor. In another method of the invention, the induction of anti-idiotypic antibodies in vivo by administration of anti-tumor antibody or immune cells or factors exhibiting an anti-tumor idiotype can be therapeutically valuable.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for producing a high hardness refractory metal part, the method comprising hot isostatic pressing a refractory metal part having a density greater than about 98% of the theoretical density in the presence of a pressurizing gas having an atomic size great enough to strain the lattice of the refractory metal at a pressure to exceed the yield strength of the metal to result in the densification of the part to a density of greater than about 98% of the theoretical density. The part is then rapidly cooled. The resulting part has a hardness approaching the hardness of mechanically worked material.
