E. R. CONNOR, 0. W. VOELPEL & J. M. CONNOR;
TOY GOLF GAME.
APPLIOATION FILED MAY 13, 1914.
Patented Feb. 9, 1915.
Zn esis as ELMER R. CONNOR AND CHARLES W. VOELPEL, OF PORT RICHMOND, AND JOSEPH M.
CONNOR. OF NEXV YORK, N. Y.
TOY GOLF GAME.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that we, Enuicalt. CONNOR and Cnannn's \V. VonLrnL, residents of Port .liichmond, Richmond county, State of New York, and Josnrn M. CoxNou, residing at New York city, county and State of New York, all citizens of the United States, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toy (rolf Games, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
\Ve will now proceed to describe our in vention in detail. the novel features of which we will point out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part hereof, wherein Figure 1 is a sectional side view of our improved game, the section being taken on a line 11 in Fig. 2; Fig. 2 is a top plan view on a reduced scale; Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional detail view of the figure, showing one manner of operating the arms, and Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic face View showing the manner of operating the rod which in turn operates the arm preparatory to a stroke.
As herein embodied our improved game consists of a box-like standard or base 2 containing at one end thereof, a spring or clock-work motor 3 designed to rotate a drum 4. the said drum being secured to the shaft 5 of the motor. The motor 3 is not shown in detail for the reason that it is of the well known type of clock-work motor. At the opposite end of the box or base 2 we provide openings 6 through which the hall 7 will drop into a chute 8. the said openings being numbered if desirable.
As can be seen in Fig. 1, the periphery of the drum 4 is in alinement with the top surface 9 of the top member 10 of the box, so that when the ball 7 is cast it will roll off the drum onto the surface 9 of the top mem- Specification of Letters Patent.

ber 10 and along said surface to the openings 6 through any one of which the ball will drop if the cast is a good one.
To cast the ball we employ a figure 11 having movable arms 12 and 13 to which a staff or club 14 is secured. In this instance the arms are pivotally connected to the body of the figure at 15 and are pivotally connected to each other by a link 16. The link 16 carries a collar 17 against which one end of a spring 18 presses, the other end of the spring pressing against the figure 11. The spring 18 surrounds the link 16 as shown. To force the arms 12 and 13 toward the right, in this instance, we employ a bell-crank lever 19 pivoted as at 20 to the figure 11. One end of the lever is forked and contacts with the collar 17, the other end of the lever receives a pin 21 carried by a vertical rod 22 which is bent at a right angle, at its lower end, as at 23. To actuate the rod 22, or pull it downwardly,
we provide the drum 4 with a pin 24 positioned to strike the end or projection 23 of the rod as shown by dottedlines Fig. 4 at a certain point during the rotation of the drum 4. To retain the ball, in order that it will be carried to the position for casting by the rotating drum, we provide the drum with a cup 25 adapted to receive the ball, andto pick it up when the cup reaches a position opposite to the end 26 of the chute, 8. hen the ball rolls down the chute it will roll against a stop 27 Fig. 2 adjacent the opening 28 in the end of the chute through which the cup will pass, the opening 28 being smaller than the ball 7. After the ball has rolled against the stop 26 it Will be picked up by the cup 25 and carried to the dotted line position Fig. 1 or Fig. 4, as soon as said cup reaches a position opposite the end of the chute.
Just after the ball has been picked up. the pin 24 will strike the projection 23 on therod 22. The continued rotation of the drum will pull the arms 12 and 13 from the full line position Fig. 1 to the dotted line position, thereby placing the spring 18 under tension. At about the time that the ball 7 reaches its highest position as shown by dotted line Figs. 1 and 4, the pin 24 will leave the projection see full line position Fig. 4, at which time the spring 18 will react forcing the arms 12 and 13 to the right. As this latter movement will be quick, the
Having now described our invention what we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A toy golf game consisting of a base, provided with openings at one end thereof, a figure at the opposite end thereof, having movable arms, means to move said arms sidewise relative to the figure, a striker carried by said arms and means to locate a ball in alinement with the movement of the striker. I
2. A toy golf game consisting of a base, provided with openings at one end thereof, a figure at the opposite end thereof having movable arms, a striker carried by said arms, a rotatable drum adjacent said figure,
means carried by said drum to releasably retain a ball, a rod adapted to move said arms in one direction, resilient means to move the arms in the opposite direction and means carried by said drum to actuate said rod, said means being positioned torelease said rod when said ball alines with the striker carried by said arms.
3. A toy golf game consisting of a base,
provided with openings at one end thereof,l
a figure at the opposite end thereof having movable arms, a striker carried by said arms, a rotatable drum adjacent said figure, means carried by said drum to releasably retain a ball, a rod adapted to move said arms in one direction, resilient means to move said arms in the opposite 'direction, means carried by said drum to actuate said rod, said means being positioned to release said rod when said ball alines with the striker carried by said arms, and means to automatically place said ball in said retaining means after it has been cast by the striker.
