GOLF TEE.
application filed January 18, 1928, Serial No. 246,547, and in New Zealand February 11, 1987.
This invention tee. v
The object of the invention is to provide a golf tee that will overcome the difficulties l experienced with existing tees, and in'particular, that .will enable the ball to be kept sufficiently off the ground and that will avoid having any unnecessary resistance to the head of the club if a shot is incorrectly layed. Furtherobjects are to diminish as far as possible distraction of attention caused, for example, by fear of meeting resistance, and to increase security of the tee itself.
According hereto the tee consists of a disc provided with a central shank -or pin adapted to be pushed into the ground. From the provides an improved golf upper surface of the disc project upwards preferably three flexible projections upon which the golf ball is to be placed, a lu being provided at one portion of the perip ery to which maybe attached a chain or cord attachedto an anchor disc, weight, or the like which will lie upon the ground so that after the ball is struck the tee will not be greatly displaced, and also enables the tee to be readily lifted out of the ground.
The invention will be described with the aid of the accompanying drawings, where- 3 in the tee in use.
Figure 2, is a cross section of the tee. Figure 3, is a plan and Figure 4, a sectional plan of the tee Figure 5, is a cross section of a modlfication.
. Referring to the drawings, the consists of a disc or button of rubber 1 slightly con- 0 vex'upon its u per surface and havingpro preferabl sliding on the cord to the other,
end of w ich is attached another tee. This anchor prevents the tee becoming too far displaced after the ball has-"been struck, and
' also enables the tee to be readily lifted out one having short Figure 1, is a perspective view showingof the ground. Usually two of the tees would be used and attached to the anchor 6, rojections and the other having considerab ylonger projections, one or other of which is used according to the di rection of the wind. I
The disc 1 of rubber is moulded around a suitable metal disc or cap 8 (see Figure 2) from which projects the shank formed of a pin 9, a disc .of fabric 10 being embedded in therubber just beneath the disc 8;
The pin 9 is preferably attached to the disc 8 as shown in Figure 2, where the head 11 of .the pin is inserted within the disc which. is of brass so thatthe rubber will vulcanize to it, and the pin is of iron so that the rubber will not adhere to it during vulcanization, and the pin at the same time will not be rigidly fixed to the cap 8.
In Figure 5, the head 11 of the pin 9 is inserted between two circular ieces of canvas 12, thus giving a greater (fzagree of flex ibility than in the former case.
What I claim is "1. A golf tee consisting of a disc of rubher or similar flexible material, flexible projections extending upwards fromthe disc at or near the circumference thereof, upon which a she; projectin from the underside of, the disc for insertion into the ground, discs of material embedded in said rubber disc to which the head of said shank is connected in such a manner that the joint between the shank and the discs of material is flexible,
substantially as described.
v2. In the golf tee asclaimed in claim 1 one of the discs made of. metal and receiving the head of the shank in such a manner that movement 'of the head is permitted within the disc of metal whereby -the joint between the shank and the discs is flexible, sub- 7 stanti'ally as described. Y
3.. In the golf, tee as claimed in claim 1, said flexible projections pointing in an outwardly direction, substantlally as and for the purpose described; v
4; A olf tee consisting of a disc of rubber or simi ar flexible m aterial, flexible'projec-- mo tions extending upwards from the disc at or near the circumference thereof upon which 4 rojections the golf ball is placed, and so I projections the golf ball is placed, and a 5. A golf tee as claimed in claim 1 a shank shank projecting from the underside of the having a head embedded in the rubber disc disc for insertion into the ground, a metal and apiece of canvas above and below said 10 disc embedded in said'rubber disc to which head, substantially as described. i said shank is connected and a disc of fabric In testimony whereof, I have signed my embedded in the rubber immediately below. name to this specification.
the metal disc, substantially as described. NORMAN R. J ACOBSEN.
