A golf putter head with base member and wing member is disclosed. The base member has a front face for contacting a golf ball in the performance of putting a golf ball. The front face extends in a direction along the axis of elongation of the base member. The wing member is relatively wide where at its connection interface with the base member, to assure that force is applied from the wing member evenly to the base member as a golfer swings the putter. The disclosure also covers a golf putter with the disclosed putter head and shaft assembly.

Golf putter and head therefor

Golf putter head

A lubricant nozzle positioning system and method for use with a machine tool having an automated tool changing assembly and a plurality of cutting tools secured therein, for selectively positioning a desired cutting tool to contact a workpiece to be tooled. The lubricating system includes a lubricating assembly having at least one movable nozzle for providing a desired lubricant, and a nozzle positioning subsystem for cooperation with a selected program of the automated tool changing assembly for positioning the nozzle of the lubricating assembly proximate an interface of each cutting tool and a respective portion of a workpiece to be tooled upon sequential movement of the cutting tools into position by the automated tool changing assembly according to the selected program so as to provide the lubricant as desired.

A tree processing machine for felling and processing standing trees into predetermined lengths which includes generally a prime mover capable of turning in a short radius with a relatively short support frame as compared to the prior art mounted on the prime mover, a carriage frame pivotally mounted on the support frame about a roll axis generally vertically aligned with and parallel to the longitudinal centerline of the prime mover, a main support bed pivotally mounted at its upper end to the forward end of the carriage frame for pivoting from a vertical position in which the lower end thereof is near the ground to a horizontal position above the prime mover, a set of traversing drive assemblies mounted on the support bed for holding a tree against the bed and for moving the tree longitudinally with respect to the bed, a cutting assembly mounted on that end of the bed opposite its pivoted end and movable with the bed as well as with respect to the bed for selectively felling trees and cutting them into selected lengths, an adjustable delimbing mechanism carried by the bed and carriage frame for selectively delimbing the tree as it is driven by the traversing assembly, topping means carried by the carriage frame for shearing the top from the tree, an automatic control means for controlling the operating of the bed, cutting assembly, traversing drive assemblies, delimbing assembly, and topping means.
