GAME APPARATU S.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 514,520, dated February 13, 1894.
Application filed April 20, 1893- To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PAUL THAMERUS, a sub- Germany, residing at Gablonz-on-the-Neisse, in the Province of B0- hemia, in the Empire of Austria-Hungary, haveinvented certain new andnseful Improvements in Game Apparatus; and I do hereby declare the following, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to a game called reform ball-game, and which is played on a table, the halls being prevented from falling ofi the latter by means of a sheet-iron band, placed on or around the table, thus forming a flange of the height required for preventing the balls from jumping over it. The halls are pushed by means of cues toward a goal consisting of a hollow truncated pyramid, placed in the middle of the table, and having at its top a cupshaped recess into which the balls are intended to fall. The sides of the pyramid are provided with holes cut into them, constituting obstacles for the balls running up said faces, since, if a ball is caught in one of these holes, it falls into the hollow inner part of the pyramid, instead of reaching the cup at the top of same.
In the accompanying sheet of drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical section of part of the table and of the pyramid used as a goal, of which latter Fig. 2 is a plan. Fig. 3 shows a cue. Fig. 4 is a plan of the table prepared for playing.
As shown, the table a is encompassed all around its periphery by a sheet-iron band 1) Serial No. 71,160. (No model.)
closed at 19, forming a flange of sufticient height to prevent the balls from falling 0d the table. .In the center of the table is erected the hollow pyramid a, used as a goal, having a cup 0' formed at its top, and holes a cut into its sides. The balls 6 pushed by means of cues (1 toward the goal run up the sides of the pyramid, and either fall through one of the holes 0 or fall into the cup 0, or pass beyond the whole pyramid, or run back without having reached the top of the pyramid. Each player receives an equal number of balls, of different colorfor each one; the rules of game are deducted from the value attributed to the various results of each stroke: balls within the pyramid, balls in the cup, balls on this or on the farther side of the pyramid.
I claim-- 1. A game,the essential feature of which is a goal formed by a hollow, truncated pyramid (c) placed in the center of the table, and provided at its top with a cup-shaped hollow (c) to receive the balls, and with holes (0 cut in its lateral faces, through which holes the balls may fall, substantially as described and shown.
2. A game consisting of a table,a pyramid 0 having a cup 0, openings in the sides of the pyramid, a band encircling the table and projecting above the surface thereof and balls and cues, said cues finding a rest on the band, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
PAUL TIIAMERUS.
