- My inventionl relates to an improvement in putting or golf cups and has for one vof its objectsV the provision of a cup of improved construction whereby the flag socket can be entered very easily and readily and in which a good support is provided for holding the iiag socket vertically at all times.
' tion, while Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Fig. l.
Referring to the drawings in detail, l designates the sidewalls of my improved cup, and 2 a Vconical bottom therefor. The walls and bottom may be a single casting as shown or in two pieces, just as desired. At the cen-V ter of the conical bottom 2 I provide a flag socket aperture or opening 4. On the underside of the conical bottom 3 are four fiat .legs designated 5, these legs being spacedl from each other as illustrated in Fig. 2, and the planes of the legs being radial to the aperture or opening 4 in the cup bottom.
' The inner edge of each legextends inwardly toward the center of the conical bottom 3 beyond the edge of the hole or opening 4 as indicated at 6. Y
The lower ends of the legs carry a base 7 of smaller diameter than the cup and also providedwith a hole or opening 8, inline with the opening 4 in the cup bottomv 8.
The socket for receiving a flag stick is designated 9, and as will appear from the drawing is provided with-a collar l() Iwhich engages the inwardly projecting portions of the legs 5 to limit the downward movement of the socket relatively to the cup, it being understood that the portion of the socket below the collar 10 passes through the opening 4 inthe bottom of the cup and down Y through the hole 8 in the base member 7 of the cup and into the ground, asindicated at 1l. The opening 4 in the cup bottom is larger in diameter than the ycollar l0, but the legs 5 extend inwardly beyond the edge of this opening a suiicient distance to provide a support for the collar, as above noted, thereby leaving a drainage space about the periphery of they collar l0, preventing collar from acting as a valve andenabling vwater to drain freely out of the cup downV through theopening 4, between the legs 5 and into' the ground.
f It will be apparent from if the foregoing that I have provideda device for' thepur-l pose above indicated in which good Ydrainagels assured at all'ftimes by the conical construction of the cup bottom 3 .andv the open.- ing 4 therein taken in conjunction with the` spaced legs 5.
' It will be apparent, furthermore, that, Vdue i I Y y i to the conical bottom of the cup, the opening 4 and legs 5, together with the base member 7, enable the flag socket to be placed readily in position and properly held in such position. i
It will be obvious also that the base 7, being of smaller diameter than the cup walls, water' draining outof the cup is free to pass outwardly between the legs 5 and over the edge of the base 7 and into the ground.
Vhat I claim is.: v
l. A cup for golf, comprising a body portion, a bottom for said kbody portion provided with a central aperture, a base forsaid cup, said base being provided with an aper-V ture in line withV the aperture in the cup bottom, legs spacing thecup bottom and base from each other and uniting said cup bottom and base, Y ing'inwardly beyond the'edge of said apertures. y j
2. A, cup for golf comprising'a body portion, a bottom provided with an base, legs spacing the base and cup bottom from each other, said legs being spaced' about the said apertureV with their planes extending radially thereof, the inner edge of each leg projecting inwardly beyond the edge of.
said aperture. Y
3. A cup forgolf, comprising a body portion, a bottom vided with an aperture, a base, legs uniting said base and cup'bottom, said base lying-below the bottom of said portion of the cup and being provided with an aperture in vertical alignment with the.
aperture in the cup bottom, said legs being spaced from each other to permitof drainage of the cup through the aperture in the cup bottom and laterally with respect tothe cup.
4. A cup for golf comprising a body portion, a conical bottom,y said bottom having for said body portion pro? the inner edge of each leg projectaperture, a
Vwalls of thev bodyI i lation to said' apertures,V
'base from each other, said legs being Vjeeting slightly beyond the aperture in. ther eup bottom. t
5. A @up forfgolf compri-sing aI body vportion, a bottom having an aperture at the eenter thereof a base of smaller diameter than said bottoniI provided with a-n aperture lying beneath the aperture in the eupbottom, a lpluralityv orf legs spacing the eup bottom and with their planes radially disposed withV retheV inner edge of eaehy leg projecting slightly beyond theV edge v20 of the.` aperture in the cup bottom.
6. In combination,V a golf cup comprising flat a bottom having an aperture, spacing the CupV bottom and base, edges of said base projecting inwardly slightly beyond the edge of the aperture in the eupvbott'enr, a fllag socket, adapted to be dreceived by said aperture and to lpass between said' legs, and a collar or abutment provided on'said socket adapted to engage tl'ie upper edge of said legs, said collar being of less diameter bottom. A
7. A cup `for golr1 eomprisi'ng'a bodypor`- tion, an unobstructed bottom for said body portion, a base beneath the cup bottom and spaced therefrom, means permitting of drainage of the cup laterally in the spaee base. I y I This speeiioation signedfthis v10 day of January, 1927. 1
