G. E. KANNEMANN FLAGPOLE HOLDER FOR GOLF CUURSES Filed April 18, 1928 H ll 4; I? *nia. n54- 1&5.
L t INVENTOR. A 45 d'aageEfKarmemerz AT ORNEY The invention has forv an object the pro-' vision of a device of the class mentioned,
'which is of simple, durable construction, de-
sirable and eflicient in action and which can be manufacturedand sold at a reasonable cost.
The device proposes theuse of a bushing arranged for "connection'on the bottom of a golf pole, and provided with a shoulder and a lower reduced portion for'engaging 111 an opening within a golf hole bracket so as, to firmly and positively hold the pole in vertlcal position; 1 A means may be provided. for
insuring a good connection between the said bushing and the golf hole bracket.
Thisarrangement, quite obviously, is far superior to the common method of forcibly driving a pointed peg usually arranged on the bottom of a golf pole thru a hole in the golf hole bracket and into the ground. Very often during this driving the golf pole splits and breaks, and besides great difficulties arise in that the golf pole refuses to remain in a vertical position and leans towards one side, due to soft ground or loose connections between the peg and the ground.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings,
and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a 'material part of this construction Fig. 1 is a vertical sectional view of a golf hole bracket, and a golf pole engaged therein according to this'invention.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the bracket, per se.
Fig. 3 is a side elevational view of a golf pole, and a bushing as used in this invention engaged thereon, the bushing being shown in section.
golf poles.
Figs. 4 and 5 are similar views of different Fig.- 6 is a ing, per se.
Fig. 7 is a side elevational view of a bushing of modified form, a portion thereof being broken away to disclose the interior construction.
The reference numeral 10 indicates generally the tubular body of a golf hole bracket,
perspective View of the bushor woonnuav, were I v F0 some ooUnsEs- 1928.- fseriai no. 270,865.
provided with acup shaped member 11 p This-cup shaped senting an opening '12. member is connected with'thetubular body by means' of substantially horizontal ribs '13 and vertical ribs 14. The bottom of the cup shaped member 11 has anaperture; 15 for permitting the bottom'pegs of golf [poles to pass thru and engage in the ground. vInthe instant invention thisaperture is not/used for this purpose, but serves as a1 outlet;foi',
rain water.
A wooden golf pole lti is iformed' with. a V
' reduced lower; end 17. upon which ' metallie rings 18 and 19 are-engaged. A metallic.
bushing engages upon these rings and is thus held'by a screw 21. Thejbushing 2Q is formed with a shoulder 22 and;a lower re duced portion 23. .As shown in" Fig; 1, the shoulder 22 restsupon the cup 11, and the reduced portion 23 snugly engages in, the cup opening 12, for firmly and positively holding the pole in verticalposition'. I
The golf pole 24 illustrated in Fig. 4, is a metallic one, and has an enlarged bottoln portion 25 and a ring 26 on the main port1on of the pole. The bushing 20 is engaged upon the .portion 25 and the ring 26 in a man- I 'ner similar to the one just described relative to golf pole 16. In Fig. 1 dot dash lines 24 simulate this pole. Since the pole 24 is thinner than pole 16, a golf ball may enter the golf ball bracket 10 easier when the thinner pole is used.
In Fig. 5 a bamboogolf pole '27 is illustrated provided with the same bushing 20,
and in Fig. 6 a detail perspective view of the bushing itself has been shown.
The modified form illustrated in Fig. 7 shows a bushing 20 provided with an at taching screw 21, a shoulder 22, and a bottom tapered member 23. Wedge members 28 are formed with dovetailed tongues 29 slidably engaging grooves in the sides of the tapered member 23. Pins 30 project from the Wedge members 28 and into slots-'31 formed 'lOO in the tapered member 23 for holding the wedges against displacement. In operation the wedge members 28 engage in the cup 12 and are spread outwards firmly against the sides of the cup by downward motion of the bushing 20.
l/Vhile I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and position.
1. A bushing for a device 'o-f the cl'ass de scribed, comprising a main portion arranged for connection with a golfpole', and a shoul der and reduced portion connected therewith and--providedwith Wedge members slidably mounted and being capable ofsnugly engaging-in a cup opening of'a golf hole bracket for holding-an engaged golf'pole inaverti'cal 2'. K bushing for adevice oft'lie classdescribed, comprisinga main portion arranged forconnectionw-it'h a'golf' pole, and a shoulder and 'reducedportion connected therewith and provided ith Wedge member's slidably mounted by reason of dovetailed tongues from the Wedge members engaging in grooves inthe' reduced portion, and the Wedge members beingcapable of snugly engaging in a cup opening of a'golf hole br'ack et for holding-an engaged golf pole in a vertical position; i
3;- A bushing for a'device of'the class described, compri-sing a main portion arranged for connection Witha golf pole, and sh'oul der and reduced portion connected therewith and provided-with Wedge members slidably" mounted by reason of tongues engaging in grooves, and the wedge members being capable of snugly engaging in a cup opening of a? golf hole bracket for holding an engagedgolf pole in a vertical position.
4': A bushingfor the class described, c0mprising a main portion arranged for connec tion with a golf pole, a shoulder and reduced portion connected therewith and provided with edge members slidably mounted and" belng capable of snugly engaging in acup opening ofa-golf hole bracket for holding an engaged golf pole in a vertical position and pins projecting from the Wedge memhers an'd en'gagingslots formed 1n the said reduced portion for-holding the Wedge members to limited movements. y
