Abstract
179,444. Willoughby, F. S. May 27, 1921. Balls.-A billiard or like ball with a true spherical surface has its centre of gravity displaced' from the geometrical centre to give the ball an uncertain movement. In a bonzaline ball a metal ball may be embedded out of centre during the moulding process, or a disc b, Fig. 4, or a series of metal rods, may be let into the surface. In an ivory ball, a plug c, Fig. 2, may retain a single ball a, a series of small balls, or a quantity of quicksilver. A section or a half of the billiard ball may be made of a lighter or heavier material, or a cavity d, Fig. 10, may be made in the ball. A weight g, Fig. 8, adjustable by a screw f may be provided within a bore, or the ball may be made in two separable parts, Fig. 9, to permit access to an adjustable weight j.
