BILLIARD-c-Un CHALKER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed. June 16, 1915. Serial No. 34,462
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that'I, JOHN H. MILKS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Grays River, in the county of lVahkiakum and State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Billiard-Cue Chalkers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the artto which it anpertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to devices for coating the tips of billiard cues with chalk; and
it consists in the novel construction and com- I bination of the parts hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a billiard cue chalker constructed according to this invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the device, taken on the line 00-%' in Fig. 2.
A stationary cylindrical guide 2 is provided, and is adapted to be secured to any convenient support, such as a wall or ceiling. A tube 3 is slidable longitudinally in the cylindrical guide, and is provided with two similar spiral slots 4- arranged opposite to each other. A pin 5 is secured to the cylindrical. guide and passes through the two slots 4, crosswise of the tube 3, so that when the tube is slid longitudinally it is constrained to revolve on its own axis. A pin 6 is also secured to the top portion of the tube 3, and 7 is a, helical tension spring having its ends secured to the pins 5 and 6, and pulling the tube 3 downwardly.
A chalk cup or receptacle 8 is secured to the bottom end portion of the tube 3, and 9 is a block of prepared chalk or similar coating material secured in the chalk cup 8. The chalk cup has a conical guide 10 at its bottom, and this guide has a central hole 12 through which the tip of the one is thrust into con- Gopies of this patent may be obtained for tact with the chalk. When the tip of the one is pressed against the chalk, the tube 3 is raised and revolved in its guide so that a coating of chalk is applied to the tip. The conical guide 10 is shallow, so that only the tip of the cue touches it, no portion of the wooden cue being forced into contact with any metallic surface. In this manner the wooden one is preserved from being scratched or abraided. The guide 10 is removable and forms a cover for the chalk cup. It is slipped into engagement with the chalk cup, having a flange 13 for that purpose. The lower end portion of the tube 3 is cut longitudinally so as to form spring clips or fin gers lt for holding the block of chalk centrally 1n the chalk cup.
What I claim is:
1. Ina billiard cue chalker, a stationary cylindrical guide, a tube slidable l0ngitudi nally in the guide and provided with two spiral slots, a pin secured to the guide and passing transversely through the two slots, a tension spring arranged between the said pin and the upper portion of the tube, and a chalk holder secured to the lower end of the said tube.
2. In a billiard cue chalker, a stationary cylindrical guide, a tube slidable longitudinally in the guide and provided with two spiral slots, a pin secured to the guide and passing transversely through the two slots, a tension spring arranged between the said pin and the upper portion of the tube, a
chalk cup secured tothe lower end of the said tube, means for positioning the chalk in the chalk cup and a conical guide for the cue tip secured to the chalk cup and having a central opening, the said chalk cup and conical guide being slidable vertically with the said tube.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
JOHN H. MILKS.
