BlLLIARD-CUE TIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 291,703, dated January 8, 1884.
Application filed February 28, 1883. No model.) I
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, HENRY EASTHOPE and GEORGE O. SCHNEIDER, both of the city of St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Billiard-Cue Tips, of which the following is a full. clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, formingpart of this specification.
Our invention relates to that class oibilliardcue tips which are formed of rubber; and our improvement consists in the construction of tip hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
Figure, l is a perspective view of the tip. Fig. 2 is a side view of the end of cue and tip; and Fig. 3 is a similar view, except that the tip is shown in section.
The tip has a convex end, A, and sides B, the latter being made of sufficient strength to give lateral support to the tip. The socket within the tip flares inwardly.
O is the cue, having its end turned into a pin, D, fitting the socket of the tip. The pin is made somewhat larger in diameter, so as to flare outwardly, at the end than at the shoulder E. The shoulder E is made to nicely fit the edge of the tip, so that the circumference of the tip at that point shall be flush with that of the cue.
This tip requires no adhesive material to hold it upon the cue, as the joint is air-tight and the pressure of the outer air is amply sufficient to hold it in place. The surface of the rubber is of such a nature that it takes the necessary hold of the ball and renders the use of chalk quite unnecessary, thus -doing away with a common source of annoyance and dirt. The peculiar shape of the tip avoids the use of any adhesive substance. The use of glue has disadvantages: First it is inconvenient to apply, and is liable to render the cue disagree able to handle, and to spoil the cloth when first put on. It is, in fact, inoperative until it has had time to dry. This would necessitate the keeping of an extra stock of cues; second, the use of glue renders the tip hard to remove, necessitating the cutting of it off, and this would be almost sure to leave the mortise untrue and utterly spoil the cue. Vith our con struction the tip can be pulled oft with proper degree of readiness; but it is never disturbed in position when in use, so that new tips may be substituted at any time and the cue put to immediate use.
WVe claim as our invention The combination of cue O,havin g outwardlyflaring rear end, D, leaving shoulder E, and the rubber tip A, having sides B flush with the cue, and inwardly-fiarin g socket fitting the rear end of the cue, as set forth.
