BY I
ATTONEY Patented Jan. 26, 1926.
UNITED STATES JOHN W. SIBlBALD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
GOLF TEE.
Application filed October 10, 1925. Serial No. 61,829.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, JOHN W. SIBBALD, a citizen of the .United States, residing at: New-York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful lmprovements'in Golf Tees, of which the following is a specification. The invention relates to an improved golf ball tee adapted to'be carried about conyeniently by a player, 's'aid tee being provided with adjustable means for supporting the ball at a height to suit the requirements,f0r example, a tee of the character set forth in my prior U. S. Letters Patent No, 1,413,496.
The present invention relates more particularly to a construction of tee of this type whereby possible damage to the adgustab e portion thereof is prevented; and, urthermore, whereby a guide may be provided to assist a player in the striking of the ball. In the tee set forth in my aforesaid patent, r the ball support member is 'adjustably mounted in a boss or hub; but I have found. that if the same be frequently struck by a golf club there is danger of such hub be coming damaged to the extent even of mterfering with the adjustment of the ball supporting member, particularly if the tee be made of comparatively li ht material as aluminum and which is a hlghly desirable material to employ for this purpose- The resent invention obviates any possibility of damage in this respect to the ball supporting member; and the novel structure is shown more particularly in the accompanying drawings, wherein-- Fi l'is a plan view of the improved tee, and ig. 2 is a side elevation thereof. Referring to the drawings, 10 designates a generally segmental base member having a radially" disposed approach incline 11 merging into the circumference of said base,
the portions either side being cut away, leaving upstanding from the base theradiallydis osed in'cline or arm 11. At the inner on is a central andhub portion 12 formtaining the adjustable ball support 13 which hub, as in my prior construction, is of sub-- stantial proportions; and the arm 11 is designed to merge therein, being radially directed thereto with its inclined upper surface 14 extending from the circumference of i the vbase 10 upwardly substantially to the upperedge of said hub, as indicated more 0 early in Fig. 2 of the drawings. The aides of incline 11, however, extend abruptly .therein and thus cause the tee from the surface of the base and the arm 18 effectively set off therefrom. Moreover,
the surface of the base at both sides of the incline 11 at the immediate circumference portion is beveled off, as at 15, toward the circumference to assist also in deflecting a blow upwardly should the stroke beslightly from one side or the other. This improved incline member provides a substantial approach surface "in driving as well" as a reinforcement of the hub so that all damage thereto is obviated-in the striking of the same by a'club and there is'no tendency of the ball supporting member 13 binding to lose the advanta of adjustment. Moreover, in case a club s ould strike the toe, the blow will be deflected upwardly due to the inclined approach surface 11 or-the-beveled portions 15 and, furthermore,will be guided toward the ball. A still-further advantage'of the improved construction resides inthe fact that in instances where the tee is hit rather than the ball, the former is notv hurled to 'any great-distance due to a downward component of the blow resulting from impact upon the said inclined approach surfaces. The
ample surface ofthe base portion provides,
moreover, for adequate support of the tee asa whole and renders the same sufliciently stable in use.
I claim 1. A golf ball tee, comprising a supporting base having a protruding boss or hub, an arm with inclined approach and guide surface extending from said base substantially to the top of the said hub, and a recessed member adjustably. mounted in said boss adapted to receivea golf ball.
2. A golf ball tee, comprising a segmental base support having a centrally located protruding boss or hub, a radial arm with inclined approach and guide surface extend ing substantially to the top of said hub from the circumference of said base, and a recessed member adjustably mounted in said boss adaptedto'receive a golf ball.
3. A golf ball tee,co'mprising a segmental base support having a centrally-located protruding boss or hub, a radial arm with abrupt sides and inclined approach and guide surface extending substantially to the top of said hub from the circumference of said base, and a recessed member adjusta golf ball.
ably mounted in said boss adapted to receive 4. Agolf ball tee, comprising a segmental tion thereof at both sides of the radial arm base support having a centrally located probeing beveled to the circumference of the truding boss or hub, a radial arm with base, and a. recessed member adjustably abrupt sides and inclined approach and mounted in said boss adapted to receive a 5 guide surface extending substantially to the golf ball. I
