Application filed March 16, 1920. Serial N0. 366,336.
To all'zohomz'tmag concem: I
Be it known that I, ARTHUR C. CARPEN- ran, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pasadena, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Retrievers for Golf-Balls, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to golf impedimenta and has for its object to provide a device for retrieving golf balls, and a fur ther object of the invention is to provide for theutilization of broken golf sticks, canes and the like, and the invention consists of the construction, the combination, and in details and arrangements of the parts, an embodiment of which invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described and claimed hereinafter.
Figure 1.is a perspective of the retriever with the shank broken away to indicate indefinite length.
Fig. 2 is a sectional detail of the construction of the retriever embracing a ball.
-The instrument comprises a stick, cane, shaft or handle part 2 that may be readily formed by the utilization of broken canes and golf club handles, or the stafl may be especially made for the purpose.
On the lower end of the handle there is attached a device of appropriate construction and size to readily embrace and frictionallyhold a golf ball as G so as to eliminate the necessity of bending 'over' when traversing a golf course in order to' recover the ball.
The ball engaging meansv is shown as comprising a ferrule 3 having a set of arms 4 that are connected to a ring 5 forming a gripping means. The ring is shown-as arranged at right angles to the axis of the. ,shaft or handle and is of such size that when pressed over a golf ball will frictionally bind on the surface of the same to a sufficient degree to retain the ball when the retriever is lifted. This arrangementof the device provides ample opening above the ring for the application of the fingers to eject the golf ball from the socket or ring.
The ferrule may be threaded as at 3' or in any other manner suitably connected to the end of the handle 2.
As shown in the drawing the golf ball retriever is put at the end of the handle of the putter where it would be more convenient for use on the green or the putting contest wherever the putter is used.
Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:
A retriever for golf balls comprising a handle having a reduced threaded end portion, an internally threaded ferrule seated on the threaded end of said handle, a pair of oppositely disposed curved arms formed integral with and projecting outwardly and downwardly from said ferrule and a rin formed integral with the lower ends of sai arms, the internal diameter of which ring is slightly less than the diameter of an ordinary golf ball.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
