5results about "Bowling balls" patented technology

Training balls are presented including: a solid sphere defining a first hemisphere having a first surface and a second hemisphere having a second surface; a tactile feature positioned along the first surface and substantially centered with the first hemisphere, where the tactile feature includes: a center portion having a closed geometric shape; and a continuous grooved border encompassing the center portion; a first grooved feature positioned along the second surface, where the first grooved feature includes a first body segment; a second grooved feature positioned along the second surface, where the second grooved feature includes a second body segment, where the first body segment and the second body segment are substantially parallel, and where the first grooved feature and the second grooved feature are substantially centered with and solely upon the second hemisphere along the second surface.

A mobile apparatus includes a motion action portion. The motion action portion including a frame portion, at least part of the frame portion including a structural battery, the structural battery including one or more energy storage devices. Each of the one or more energy storage devices having at least one anode core of a continuous carbon fiber, an electrolyte arranged on the at least one continuous carbon fiber core, and a cathode layer arranged to the at least one continuous carbon fiber core on the electrolyte, and at least one interface electrically connected to the structural battery, the interface for inputting power for charging the structural battery and for outputting power.

Embodiments disclosed herein include an insert for a bowling ball. In an embodiment, the insert comprises a bottom surface, a sidewall surface that extends up from the bottom surface, and a top surface, where the top surface is a partial spherical surface with a radius substantially equal to a radius of the bowling ball. In an embodiment, a first hole is provided into the top surface, a second hole is provided into the top surface, and a third hole with a diameter that is smaller than a diameter of the first hole or the second hole is provided in the insert, and where the third hole passes through a thickness of the insert.

Various technologies described herein pertain to systems and associated methods that record a sensor measurement of bowling ball dynamics or bowling environment conditions and output the sensor measurement, upon which bowling performance may be evaluated or bowling strategy may be adjusted. The system includes a base that adheres to an indentation of a bowling ball. The base includes an opening to receive an insert and a protrusion that is received by a slot formed on the insert to restrain relative movement between the base and the insert. The system includes a sensor housing that may be removably coupled to the insert by way of guide portions and / or locking features on the sensor housing and the insert.
