BILLIARD-TABLE CLOTH.
Application sied June 12, 192s. sei-iai No. 644,847.
Theinvention has reference to the cloth used for covering billiard tables. The cloth at present employed for this purpose is a fine woolen cloth woven to a certain thiclc ness' with a carefully finished surface and is very expensive. y
Under my invention I weave a cloth which is admirably adapted for the purpose from cotton, 'and the finished product in many respects possesses advantages over the wool en cloth, besides being very much cheaper. For the purpose of my invention I employ cotton of very fine counts, say from 60 to 100 count yarns, although I do not confine myself precisely to such, and the yarn used isftwisted' from such fine counts and may be cleaned and gassed. From such cotton yarn I weave a homogeneous multiple fabric of the desired thickness and which possesses the requisite elasticity and softness. Such a fabric may be of 3 or more cloths according to the ineness of the count ,of the cotton yarn, and is wovento show a plain weave surface on both sides. For this purpose, weaving a fabric of threev cloths, I may use `a six shaft loom, although the material can be woven by other mechanism, such as by using a dobby or other means for conveniently operating the warp threads.
The accompanying diagram shows in Fig. 1 the tie-up in a six shaft loom, V12 to the round, suitable for weaving the improved cloth, and, Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the weft threads a in section.
The material ywhen finished and dyed an appropriate green colour, is eminently suitable for covering billiard tables `and cushions. It is reversible, and possesses such a smooth surface that the ball will travel faster than on an ordinary woolen billiard cloth. There is no nap to offerfrictional resistance to the travel of the ball, 'so that ironing is unnecessary, and the surface being very smoothcfi'ers no resistance to the cue tip, and thus is not liable to be accidentally cut by the tip. f
.The method of manufacturing such new billiard table cloth from cotton may how-` ever be varied from that described, so that the result produces a homogeneous cloth of the requisite thickness, smoothness of surface, and elasticity.
I declare that what I claim is:
1. A reversible, napless cloth for covering billiard tables, comprising a homogeneous fnmltiplefabric of a plurality of cloths solid woven in the loom from cotton yarns of fine counts doubled, into the requisite number of folds and then twisted and gassed'and dyed the Vappropriate color, said fabric being nished so as to produce a .solid woven, surfaced, napless, reversible cloth as herein described. 1
2. A napless,vreversible cotton cloth for billiard tables, comprising a homogeneous multiple fabric of several cloths solidwoven from cotton yarns of to 100 counts doubled into the required number of folds and then twisted.
3. A napless, reversible cottoncloth for billiardtables, comprising a homogeneous, multiple fabric of several cloths solid woven from cotton yarns of 60 to 100. counts doubled into the required number of folds `and then twisted, said billiard cloth having a plain weave onboth surfaces.
4. rIhe process of producing a billiard 'cloth which consists in doubling cotton yarns of GO to 100 counts Ainto a plurality of folds, twisting the yarns, cleaning and gassing said yarns and weaving the same into a homo-v geneous, fabric. f
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specication. 1
