Title: Golf ball teeing device
Inventor: MONTALVO SAMUEL A
IPC: A63B57/00
Filed: 2002-03-29
Abstract: A golf teeing device (10) includes a one-piece singulation arm (12) having a ball-receiving region (20) that is connected to a ball-seating region (24) by a ramp region (22). The unitary singulation arm (12) has a raised rest position and a lowered delivery position. The configuration of the ramp region (22) channels a golf ball (14) to the ball-seating region (24) when the singulation arm (12) is in its delivery position. The configuration of the ball-seating region (24) inhibits horizontal movement of the ball (14) in any direction when the ball reaches this region. In one embodiment, all three regions (20, 22 and 24) of the singulation arm (12) have dimensions that are consistent with the channel of the ramp region (22). A ball-striking mechanism (38) within a supply path (42) to the singulation arm (12) is activated to provide dislodging forces to at least two balls, thereby ensuring a consistent flow of balls to the singulation arm (12).

Title: A cleaning tool, which dispenses cleaning liquid, and a valve for controlling the flow of liquid
Inventor: SAMARTGIS JIM
IPC: A46B11/04
Filed: 2007-05-29
Abstract: A cleaning tool, such as a toilet bush includes a head (7) with a handle (5) extending from the head (7). The handle (5) can carry a liquid and can dispense it through the handle (5). The handle (5) includes a dispensing passage (51) that the liquid passes through to a liquid outlet (17) when the liquid is dispensed. The passage (51) has a valve (19) that controls flow of the liquid, and includes a sliding gate (65) and a stationary gate. The sliding gate (65) can move relative to the stationary gate (49) to a closed position, which blocks the flow of liquid when in one position, and can be moved relative to the stationary gate (49) to an open position, which permits the liquid to flow. The sliding gate (65) is an elongate shape that can be fixed at one end relative to the stationary gate (49) part. The sliding gate (65) is of a resilient material that allows it to be elongated, by a force applied to it, externally of the handle (5). When elongated, the other end of the sliding gate, which is opposite the fixed end, slides relative to the stationary gate (49)to open the valve, to permit the flow of liquid so liquid can be dispensed from the outlet (17). The resiliency also permits the sliding gate (65) to return to a closed position to close the valve, when the force applied externally is removed.
