UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

GOLF TEE.
My invention relates to improvements in golf tees, and more particularly to improve ments in such tees which are foldable so as to be conveniently transportable, and it is the principal object of my invention to provide a golf tee of this type having a telescopic seat for the ball-in order to adapt the tee to the stature of a player.
Another object of the invention is the provision of atelescopic golf tee equipped with means for conveniently and positively controlling the telescopic operation.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a golf tee the ball seat of which is arranged on top of a'screw or the like allowing an adjustment of the seat relative to the ground.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a golf tee of the foldable 9 type adapted to be cheaply made from duraluminum or any other suitable material which is light and durable, and well adapted to hold the ball in the exact position desired on the ground. 7
It is also one of the objects of the invention to provide a tee :having a ground spike with a suitable weight attached to the tee by a flexible means and adapted to cover the ground spike when the tee is folded so as to allow a convenient carrying of the tee in the pocket etc. while in its operative position the tee forms an eflicient pedestal for mounting the ball thereon, preparatory to making a stroke.
Furthermore, my invention comprises also a golf tee, provided with a hard rubber cup or ball seat having a metal lining or sleeve adapted to be screwed upon the screw forming the ground spike.
These and other objects'and advantages of the invention will become more fully known as the description thereof roceeds, and will then be more specifically efined in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a golf tee constructed according to my invention.
Fig. 2 is atop plan view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a modified form of my improved golf tee. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of another modified form of my invention.
As illustrated, the golf-tee constructed ac- 55 cording to my invention comprises a prefertion. as shown in Figure 1, these members are frictionally or otherwise held in place to form a firm and positive support for a ball idicated at 15. A screw 16 or the like, facilitates the folding of the telescopic members and their extenslon. A weight 17 preferably of the form illustrated in Figure 1 or of any other suitable form and material, has a central perforation l8, and is connected to the disk 10 by means of a flexible connection, wire, or the like 19; the connection may be either direct or by the intermediary of suitable pins br prongs 20 and 21 respectively projecting from the sides of the disk and weight. I
A ground spike 22 or the like is centrally arranged on the underside of 'the'disk 10 and is adapted to anchor the tee in the ground. This spike may at its upper part be shaped to present a seat for the lowermost telescopic member.
It will be clear that the weight may be folded on account 'of its flexible connection against the under face of disk 10 as shown in broken lines in Figure 1, so that the ground spike engages in the perforation 18.
In the modified form of my invention, illustrated in Figure 3, the general construc tion ofthe tee is the same with the. exception that the telescopic seat supporting members 11, 12, 13 and 14 are replaced by a screw 23 carrying at its upper end the seat 24 for the ball 15, while its shaft passes through ,a threaded, centrally located opening of the disk 10 and its lower end is formed into a spike, as indicated at 25, to enter the ground for anchoring the tee firmly in the same. The other features are the same as above described wit-h respect to the preferred form.
As illustrated in Figure 4 my golf tee comprises a cup 27 made of hard rubber or the like with an inner metal lining and combined with a sleeve 26 adapted to be screwed upon the screw 23. 4
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. Golf tee comprising a metal base-disk, a tee, a means for varying the distance of said tee from the ground, a perforated weight, a means for anchoring said tee in the ground, and a flexible connection between said weight and said base-disk allowin a folding of said weight against said disk with the perforation in said weight engaged by said anchoring means.
Golf tee comprising a disk of metal having v a flat bottom and inverted saucershaped body, a tee member, a means for varyingthe distance of said tee from the ground, a perforated weight, a flexible connection between said weight and said disk, an anchor spike formed with said tee said flexible connection allowing a folding of said weight against the bottom of said tee with the anchor or ground spike engaging the perforation in said weight.
Golf tee comprising a base having a centrally located, threaded perforation, a screw passed through said erforation, a ball seat at the upper end 0 said screw, a ground engaging spike at the lower end of said screw, a perforated weight, a flexible connection between a said base and said Weight, said connection allowing a folding of said weight against said base with the spike of said screw engaging the Perforation of said weight. i
4. Golf tee comprising a base having a centrally located, threaded perforation, a screw passed through said perforation, a ground spike formed at the lower end of said screw, a sleeve or metal lining screwed upon the upper part of said screw, a rubber ball seat formed with said sleeve, a weight, and a flexible connection between said weight and said base; I
