YOCKET HOLDER FOR POOL TABLES.
Application filed April 28, 1925.
The invention relates to the means for securing the pockets of pool tables to thc bed of the table.
Heretofore the open end of pockets used in pool tables have been secured to the bed of the table by means of tacks or other driven fastenings. As vfrequently the pockets have to bear the weight of a plurality of pool balls the tacks have been pulled out of place thus requiring frequent repair and the time, when happening during a game, permitting the balls to roll onto the floor.
The invention that is the subject matter of this application is designed to more securely hold the pockets in engagement with the table bed and has for its principal object the provision of a curved rod shaped to lit the opening formed for the pocket, said curved rod being adapted to be threaded through the loops of the pocket when made of netted cord, or the netted cord pocket may be pr0- vided with a tubular member made of the same material as the pocket or of other suitable material. The device is also adapted to be applied to use with leather pockets as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
The construction and operation and advantages of the invention will be described in detail hereinafter and will be found illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a top plan view of a corner of a pool table showing the pocket and the improved means for holding the top edge of the pocket to the bed of the table,
Figure 2 is a sectional view of the corner of the table taken on a plane indicated by the line @W2 of Figure l,
Figure 3 another sectional view taken on a plane indicated by the line 3 3 of Figure 1 Figure 4t a detail view showing the device applied by running the rod through loops of the pocket, and
Figure a similar view as Figure 4 showing the device applied to a pocket made of leather or Other flexible material.
In the drawings similar reference characters will be used to designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
A pool table is yfragmentally shown in Fig- Serial No. 26,405.
ure l and designated A, B indicating the usual corner piece to which the outer portion of the pocket is secured at its Open end. The table bed is shown provided with the usual recess C to which the inner portion of the pocket is secured at its open end.
As hereinbefore stated, the usual practice is to secure the inner edge of the pocket B to the table bed at the opening C by means of tacks or other driven fastenings. This invention has for its object to provide a better means for securing the inner edge of the pocket to the table bed and comprises a curved bar l provided with openings 2, one of said openings being adjacent to each of the ends of the rod and another opening intermediate of its ends7 these openings being designed to admit securing the rods t0 the edge of the table at the opening C by means of driven fastenings. preferably of flat headed screws. The rod l engages in a tubular member secured to the open edge of the pocket, said tubular member being as shown in Figures l, 2, and 3 formed of a 75 cord similar to the cord of which the pocket is made, and said tubular member is designated 4.
In Figure 4t the rod l is shown engaging in the loops of the pocket at its open end and this structure may be utilized in place of the structure shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3. lVhere the rod is threaded through the loops the rod should be covered with a cord or other suitable covering designated 5 to 85 prevent injury to the pool balls in entering the pocket.
ln Figure 5 is shown the adaptation of the device to a pool table employing pockets of leather or other flexible fabric, wherein the edge of the pocket is turned back on itself and sewed or otherwise secured to form a hem 6 through which the rod may be inserted, said hem being divided intermediate the ends of the rod to permit fastening the rod to the table edge by inserting the screw or other fastening through the opening 2 intermediate the ends of the rod.
As the rod l is made preferably of metal, it will be apparent that it may be shaped 10z to tit the edge of the table at the pocket opening so that it may be applied to a the impact of balls thereagainst, n pocket suspended by said bar and Covering, and fastening elements separate from the bal' to 10 secure the same to the table.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
NOAH F. ROLLEY.
