HERVEY E. WETZEL, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
GOLF-TEE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 662,368, dated NovemberBO, 1900.
Application filed October 8, 1900. Serial No. 32,431. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HERVEY E. WETZEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Golf-Tees, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to golf-tees; and it is the object of the invention to obtain a simple and inexpensive construction which is light, compact, and capable of adjustment both as to height and diameter of the ball-support.
The invention consists in the construction as hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a tee as arranged when not in use. Fig. 2 is a perspective view thereof as expanded for use. Fig. 3 is a diagram-section showing one adjustment of the tee, and Figs. 4 and 5 are similar views showing different adjustments.
As shown in the drawings, the tee comprises a coiled strip A of light flexible material, such as paper, the outer coil (1 being secured upon itself, as at b, so as to form a retainingband, preventing the expansion of the coil. The device, as thus formed, may be elongated by pushing the coil into a spiral form, and when thus adjusted there will be sufficient friction between the adjacent convolutions to hold the coil in any position against the weight of the ball.
It is to be noticed that the coil may be adjusted not only as to height, but also as to diameter of the upper coil forming the ballseat; Thus in Fig. 3 the coil is adjusted to form a ball-seat of smallest diameter-via,
that of the inner coil. In Fig. 4 the same height is maintained; but the diameter of the ball-support is increased by pulling some of the intermediate coils to the top and pushing,
ball-seat thereabove and means for adjusting the height and diameter of said seat in relation to said base.
2. A golf-tee, comprising a coiled strip adapted to be adjusted into a spiral form and means for retaining said coil from expansion in diameter.
3. A golf-tee, comprising a coiled strip adapted to be adjusted into spiral form, the outer coil being secured upon itself to form a retaining-band.
a. A golf-tee, comprising a coiled strip of paper adapted to be adjusted into spiral form, the outer coil being glued upon itself to form a retaining-band.
5. A golf-tee, comprising a base and an an- 11 ular ball-seat having a telescopic connection with said base whereby said tee may be extended for use and collapsed for carrying.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HERVEY E. WETZEL.
