IMPROVEMENT IN BlLLlARD-CUES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 192,044, dated 311116 12, 1877 BJPPCB'OD filed August e, 1814.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that l, WARREN HILL, of Bos-A ton, in the county of Sui'olk, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Billiard-Cues, of which the following is a description sufficiently full, clear, and exact to enable -any person skilled iu the art or science to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in Which- Figure l isa perspective view of the tip; Fig. 2, a view ofthe cue with tip removed; and Fig. 3, a sectional view of the cue with the tip inserted.
Like letters of reference indicate correspond ing parts in the diierent iigures of the draw- 1n g.
My invention relates more especially to that class ot' billiard-cues which have adjustable or changeable tips; and consists in a novel construction and arrangement of the parts, as hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed, by which a more perfect article ofthis character is produced than is now iu common use.
[tis well known to all billiard-players that ordinary leathern tips are very liable to become accidentally detached or broken from the cues in playing, frequently causing annoying and expensive delays in making repairs.
I am aware that tips have been used which could be attached to the cue, as occasion required, without being glued on in the usual manner, and I do not, therefore, claim the same broadly; but great diiiculty has heretofore been experienced in maintaining the proper elasticity of the tip in cues of that character.
My invention is designed to obviate the dit' culties and objections which exist in this respect, and to that end I make use of a tip composed entirely of leather, and provided with a' leathern shank or projection, exteriorl y threaded for screwing into a corresponding'ly-threaded socket in the end of the cue.
In the drawing, A is the cue, G the tip, B the threaded shank or projection forming a part of the tip, and a the threaded socket in the end of the cue. The tip and its stud or shank are homogeneous, being composed entirely of one piece of leather, or of pieces of leather cemented together in such a manner as to be substantially inseparable.
By this form of construction it will be seen that a tip may be attached or detached with'
