LOUIS DOSCH, 0F BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
GAME-TABLE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LOUIS Dosorr, a subject of the Emperor of Germany, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Game-T ables, of which the following is a specification.
The general object of the invention is to improve the general character and efiiciency of game tables, such as are used in the games of shuttle-board, ten-pins and the like. And
' to this end the invention resides in surrounding the table proper with a frame, one of whose functions is to prevent the table from being jarred or swayed upon persons leaning against the device while the bal s, disks or other objects forming part of the game, are in motion on the surface of the table.
Other objects will appear and'be better understood from that embodiment of my invention of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, in which Figure 1 is a perspective of the device. Fig. 2 is a contracted vertical longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective showing an attachment for adapting the table to be used as a shutlle board. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective of a disk used in connection with the attachment shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a detail perspective of the playing stick or cue.
The frame indicated generally by a may be formed of any material found suitable for the purpose, as wood and of any convenient length. The legs 55 which sup ort the table a suitable distance above the cor, are
by preference arranged on the opposite sides (i-G of the table, those on each side being disposed suitable distances apart. Struts or cross pieces 7-7 connect opposite legs 5-5 with the opposite sides 66 of the frame; the presence of these elements lends an ele ment of rigidity to the frame when the same is set up as shown in the drawings.
At one end of the frame a is a tapered pocket 8which forms the bottom of a compartment 9 whose sides 10 and 11 are connected to the sides 6-6 of-the frame a, the said sides 10 and 11 rising for a considerable .distance above the table and being connected Specification of Letters Iatent.
Application filed January 27, 1913.
Patented Dec.2, 1913.
Serial No. 744,483.
12. Suitable supporting legs are connected to the sides of the compartment and serve to support the structure as shown.
The table proper indicated generally by -b, is arranged wholly within the frame at its top 13 being, if so desired, covered with billiard cloth 1% and supported by the legs 1515 which have flared bases 16-16 which provide relatively large bearing surfaces.
Referring now to Figs. 2, 3 and 4, the sides 17l7 of the table are out of contact with the inturned portions 18-18 of the sides 6-6. So too is one end of the table spaced from. the front end 19 of the frame a while the rear end portion of the table extends well over the pocket 8 but is spaced from the sides and the door 20 which forms the rear end of the compartment 9. \Vith this construction it will be seen that even a considerable amount of vibration in the frame will have no effect on the table. The table is so proportioned as to have its top 6 considerably above the inturned portions 1818 but a trifle below the upper edges of the sides 6-6 and to have its sides 1717 spaced from the portions 1818 for a distance less than the diameter of the ordinary pool hall 21. This construction admits of the sides 17 cooperating with the sides 6 and the inturned portions 18 to provide channels or ways for the balls which roll laterally from the table. The interiors of the pocket 8 and compartment 9 are padded as indicated by 22 Which padding deadens the sound resulting from the balls or pins 23 striking the sides of the compartment and walls of the pocket. Upon opening the door 20"access may be had to the compartment 9 and pocket 8, whereby to facilitate the setting up of the pins 23 and obtaining the balls which fall into the pocket. A chute or return 24 has one end connected to the cross beam 12 and its opposite end directed into the front part of one of the ball-ways or channels and near a pocket 25 formed by a strip of flexible material 26 connected to to the pins through the agency of a cue inthe hands of a player.. In Fig. 5, however, an attachment is shown for adapting the table for amodified form of game, such as shufile board. Here an attachment 27 having a plurality of pockets 28 is ,detachably connected to the rear end of the table by thumb screws 29 which pass through arms on the side of the attachment, one of such arms being shown in Fig. 5 and indicated by 30. The attachment may be so formed as to have the mouths of the pockets in any relation to the long'axis of the top 13, such as in the arrangement shown, where the mouths of three of the pockets are directed longitw' dinally of the top, while the mouths of the end pockets are directed laterally of the top. With this construction the operator is required to direct either directly with his hand or through the agency of a cue 31, a
. disk such as is indicated at 32, from the front end of the table into one of the pockets 28.
What is claimed as new is: 1. In a device of the class described, the combination of a frame, a table arranged within the frame and having the sides and ends of its top spaced from the corresponding parts of the frame, and a pocket at one end of the frame and below one end of the table top. I
2. In a device of the class described, the combination of a frame, having at one end a pocket and a compartment communicating with the pocket and located thereabove and.
opening into the frame, a table whollyarranged within the frame and having the sides and one end of its top arranged in spaced relation to the sides and one end of the frame and the other end of its top extending into the compartment and overlying the pocket.
3, In a device of the class described, the combination of a frame having at one end a compartment and a pocket communicating with and located below the compartment and further having inturned extensions on its sides, a table located wholly within the frame and having one end extending into the compartment and overlying the pocket and having its opposite sides arranged in spaced relation to the inturned extensions of the frame.
4. In a device of the class described, the combination of a frame having at. one end a compartment and a pocket communicating with and located below the compartment 5. In a device (if the class described, the combination of a frame, a table wholly arranged within the frame and having its sides and ends spaced from the corresponding portions of the frame and a flexible wall connecting one end of the pocket with the frame. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
