162 Golf ball cleaning machine US11518588 2006-09-07 US20080060147A1 2008-03-13 James Parton
This Golf Ball Cleaning Machine is a portable or a fixed mount design constructed of an aluminum casing in two hinged halves that opens for service of mechanisms and parts. The inner machine consists of a plastic tubular shell that houses an augur mechanism and scrubbing pads along its length. Cleaning action results from an external hand cranking of the auger and continuous ball contact with scrubbing surfaces in a water-based detergent solution in the cleaning chamber. Balls to be cleaned are fed by gravity, up to six per batch, or sequentially. Balls exit the machine via a chute and are held in an integral container. The design is corrosion resistant and resistant to ambient environmental conditions.

165 Liner for golf equipment washer US11701212 2007-02-01 US20070180636A1 2007-08-09 Todd Rosquist
The present invention provides a liner for a golf equipment washer. The liner is adapted to fit within a conventional golf equipment washer and to hold cleaning solution of such a washer. When the cleaning solution needs to be changed, the old solution and liner are removed and replaced with new. In addition, the liner is adjustable in its volumetric capacity such that when the cleaning solution freezes, the liner expands to absorb the enlarged volume without imparting pressure on the reservoir of the washer and thereby damaging the washer. Moreover, through the use of the liner, anti-freeze within the cleaning solution cannot contact the washer itself and corrode the washer.
