    Abstract: Golf balls include dimples for generating a turbulent boundary layer. At least some of the dimples include a fan-shape. The fan-shaped dimple has a plurality of blades. Each blade has a trailing edge flush with a land area of a spherical surface of the golf ball, a leading edge, and a side wall connected to the leading edge. The dimple also has a sloped floor extending from the trailing edge to the leading edge, a blade tip connecting the leading edge to the trailing edge at a distal end of the blade, and a blade root connecting the leading edge to the trailing edge at a proximal end of the blade.

    Abstract: The present invention concerns golf balls having a modified aerodynamic configuration and a method for creating a modified aerodynamic configuration that improves dimple coverage, interdigitation, and non-alignment in golf ball dimple patterns by rotating the repeating area elements about pre-determined center points, with further optional steps of expanding or contracting the elemental arrangements about pre-determined center points, enlarging or reducing the sizes of dimples, and adding extra dimples to occupy land areas created by the previous steps. The resulting modified aerodynamic configuration with a rotated element has increased dimple coverage, greater interdigitation and improved non-alignment.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to golf balls, specifically to a golf ball comprising an aerodynamic pattern having novel shaped dimple structures which reduce the variation in airflow turning angle thereby improving the golf ball's flight performance. The dimple structures have a conical shaped base with a dimple in the center and reduced or no flat land areas between the dimples.
