Title: Golf teaching aid
Inventor: MABIE ANDY
IPC: A63B69/36

Granted: 2000-04-25
Abstract: A novel golf swing teaching aid golf club is provided herein. It includes a golf club which is simple in construction and is devoid of complicated mechanical, electrical or electronic gadgetry. The golf swing teaching aid golf club includes a golf club having a grip portion and a head portion, and a hollow cylindrical transparent shaft which is interposed between the grip portion and the head portion. The hollow cylindrical portion contains a predetermined volume of coloured, flowable, liquid of low viscosity. Such liquid is freely flowable, unimpeded, from one end of the hollow cylindrical transparent shaft portion adjacent to the grip portion to the other end thereof adjacent to the head portion to check the correctness of the swing of a golfer. Before the golf swing, the liquid adopts a position within the hollow cylindrical transparent shaft at a first selected marker line to provide an easily-visible correct attitude of the golf club, when the golf ball is addressed. Under the influence of centrifugal force during the golf stroke, the liquid thereby adopts different locations within the hollow cylindrical transparent shaft during the golf swing at selected further marker lines so as to provide an easily-visible indicator of the correct attitude of back swing, at golf ball impact and of follow through.

Abstract: A slurry of sodium acid sulfate crystals generally from a chlorine dioxide generating process, is metathesized on no more than one drum filter. The crystals are fed to a first filtration zone on the filter wherein the crystals are separated from the slurry. The crystals are contacted with an aqueous metathesizing medium to effect solid phase conversion of the sodium acid sulfate crystals to neutral sodium sulfate crystals.      The resulting slurry is fed to a second filtration zone on the drum filter element separate from the first filtration zone, wherein the neutral sodium sulfate crystals are separated from the acidic medium formed in the metathesis step. The employment of a single dual service drum filter provides a simplification and cost reduction compared to conventional procedures and to also a minimization or elimination of the impact imposed by the additional evaporative load on the chlorine dioxide generator.

Abstract: A method for converting a series of m-bit information words to a modulated signal is described. For each information word from the series, an n-bit code word is delivered. The delivered code words are: converted to the modulated signal. The code words are distributed over at least one group (G11, G12) of a first type and at least one group (G 2) of a second type. For the delivery of each of the code words belonging to the group (G11, G12) of the first type the associated group establishes a coding state (S1, S4) of the first type. When each of the code words belonging to the group (G2) of the second type is delivere d, a coding state (S2, S3) of the second type is established which is determined by an information word belonging to the delivered code word. When one of the code words is assigned to the received information word, this code word is selected from a set (V1, V2, V3, V4) of code words which depends on the coding state (S1, S2, S3, S4). The sets of code words (V2, V3) belonging to the coding states (S1, S2) of the second type are disjunct. The DC and LF parameters of the modulated signal are improved, when in a coding state of the first ty pe (S1 and S4), by assigning a code word from a set of another state of the first type, while not violating the dk-constraint. That one of the sets of the first type is selected, of which the code word results in the best momentary running DC value. The method can be applied to 8 to 15 , 8 to 16 (like EFM+) or other codes with coding state mechanisms. Further a record carrier, a signal, a coding and a recording device are disclosed.

Abstract: The signal to be controlled is sent along an optical fibre (3) by means of a wavelength tunable laser (2) whose emission wavelength may be varied as a function of a possible phase variation in the received signal with respect to a reference phase. At the receiving end of the fibre a control signal is generated by extracting a fraction of the power associated with the received signal and sending such fraction back towards the transmitting end, and at the transmitting end the phase of said fraction is compared with that of the original signal and the tunable laser is driven (2) in such a way as to transmit at a wavelength such that the clock information reaches the receiving end with the reference phase.

Abstract: The Logical Channel Table (LCT), utilizing simple conventional channels or Composite Channels, provides mapping between a Logical Channel Number (LCN) representing a service and the transport stream (TSID) / program number (PN) on which the service can be found. The LCT entry contains a Composite Channel Indicator (CCI), which when set to ' 1', indicates that the selected channel is a composite channel thereby indicating the home channel of the Composite Channel. The LCT provides the Composite Channel Table (CCT) to the decoder (10) so that the tuner (12) can be returned to the actual program designated in the CCT for current viewing. Each entry in the CCT associates a Composite Channel Number (CCN) with a LCN and represents the "present" definition for the composite channel. As time progresses, the CCN is used as a "pointer" to the LCN which is the currently active service for the composite channel. These tables work with conventional MPEG-2 service definitions to decode multi-service transport streams.
