    Abstract: A method of soldering electrical lead strands (of a width at least 0.3 inch) to a printed electrical path is disclosed. The path is planted on an alumina ceramic substrate and a solder pad is attached to a portion of the path. A flat surface portion of each lead strand is forced into full interengagement with a pad, a CO.sub.2 defocused laser beam is directed onto the soldering assembly with the beam controlled to have a beam power of at least 100 watts, a beam spot diameter no less than the width of the lead strand and no greater than the width of the pad, and a beam on-time effective to exert a controlled thermal radius on the soldering assembly to reflow only a preselected portion of the pad and effect a solder joint between the pad and strand portion, the joint having a strength of at least 400 grams. The parameters of the beam power, beam spot diameter, and beam on-time are optimally correlated by the following equation: ##EQU1## where: C is the critical thermal radius, a is the Gaussian radius at 1/e.sup.2, ln is logarithm, Tm is the melting temperature of the solder minus the specimen temperature, P is the laser beam power in watts, A is the surface absorptivity of the solder at 10.6 microns, R is the terminal resistance per unit area of the system, tc is the critical time to bring the solder to the Tm temperature, c is the heat capacity of the system.

    Abstract: A golf club, such as a driver, includes a head designed for reducing spin imparted to a golf ball struck by the club head. The club head has a face portion for contacting a golf ball that is formed of a relatively hard material having a generally slippery characteristic. The golf ball slips on the face portion when a plane of the face portion at a point of contact between the ball and face portion is not generally normal to a direction of travel of the club head. The slippery characteristic may be obtained by forming the face of the club head from a sintered material impregnated with a lubricant such as PTFE. The club head may also include a plastic insert with a self-lubricating filler.

    Abstract: A laser welding machine includes an arbor for rotating a plurality of bellows diaphragms positioned together in side-by-side relation adjacent the laser. An optical tracker is provided for optically tracking a position of a rotating outer joint of the diaphragms as the arbor rotates. In addition, a low inertia beam steering mechanism is used for directing the laser beam to form a weld in the rotating outer joint responsive to the optical tracker. The laser may be an Nd:YAG, a diode laser, or carbon dioxide laser, for example. The optical tracker preferably includes a solid state camera and an illumination source positioned on opposite sides of the rotating outer joint to capture a shadow image of the joint. The welding machine may further include a processor and associated display operatively connected to the camera and to the beam steering means. The display may be used for displaying the shadow image of the rotating outer joint. The laser beam may be aligned horizontally, and indexing of joints and distance positioning for focusing the laser beam provided by an X-Y table.

    Abstract: A golf ball having a reduced spin rate is provided for minimizing the tendency of the golf ball to hook or slice in response to a sliding blow from a golf club. The golf ball may have a cover that is constructed to have a slippery surface such that when the club strikes the ball the club slides on the surface rather than imparting spin to the ball. In addition, the cover may be isolated from the inner core of the golf ball by an intervening lubricating layer which allows the cover to slip on the core so that any spin imparted to the cover is only minimally transferred to the core thereby minimizing spin of the golf ball. The golf ball may also be constructed with a fluid core either of a liquid or gelatinous substance which will not respond to any initial spin imparted to the outer cover of the golf ball and will thereby retard the spin rate of the ball.

    Abstract: A golf club having a ball-contacting surface formed by a very thin layer of lubricant for reducing the spin imparted to a golf ball. By maintaining the thickness of lubricant exposed at the ball-contacting surface to be less than 20 microns, the integrity of the lubricant layer is improved and the mechanical locking effect between the soft lubricant and the golf ball is minimized. The thin lubricating layer may be supported by a reinforcing structure to convey the force of the golf ball impact to the club head without indentation of the thin lubricating layer.

    Abstract: A method is provided for monitoring of the progression and the quality of laser material processing. Sensors and detectors are placed in the vicinity of reaction area to capture the signatures of material processing. The signals include light, temperature, sound, gas, smoke, vapor, particles, etc. emanating from the reaction area. The intensity and the timing of certain signals indicate the stages of the processing and the processing quality. One example of this invention is the use of photodiode sensors to monitor the progression of laser spot welding of a certain electronic component. Three photodiode sensors are used to monitor the laser pulse, the reflected beam, and the transmitted beam. A computer analyzes these signals in real time to determine the progressive stages of the laser welding process and the expected weld quality.
