Hand Held Cue Guide with An Adjustable Handle for Playing Billiards Games
The invention presents a hand held guide for cue shaft with an adjustable handle for playing billiard games. The guide comprises an elongated “V”-shaped guide containing said adjustable handle at least one axis that allow the pieces forming the axis to articulate up to 180 degrees. In addition, the handle contains at least one adjustable grip and the elongated “V”-shaped guide contains at least one concave groove to place the index finger or the middle finger when the person using the guide performs a closed bridge to wrap the guide.
BILLIARDS POINTER FOR CHECKING THICKNESS AND SUPPORTING CUE
The present invention relates to a billiards pointer for checking thickness and supporting a cue and, more particularly, to a billiards pointer in which a light irradiation ring is attached to an index finger so that two or more vertical lights are irradiated from the light irradiation ring, each irradiated vertical light, when a cue ball is being hit, simultaneously irradiates the cue ball and a first object ball to predict the degree of thickness by which the cue ball will hit the first object ball, the lights are blocked when the light irradiation is directed upward at a predetermined angle by means of a built-in tilt sensor, and a supporting ring fitted to a thumb is further provided, together with the light irradiation ring, to support the cue from above and below, thereby minimizing left and right rotations of the cue to enable precise hitting, so that beginners can easily understand, and enjoy a game of billiards.
Apparatus for playing billiards games
The invention includes an apparatus and method for playing billiard games including a cue glove with an easily attachable cue pilot guide to slide the cue shaft providing control to the player's stroke. In addition, the invention presents a Y-shaped lanyard attachable to the glove base allowing the player to perform an air bridge stroke. The apparatus improves the movements of the la er in all directions.
Cue sport aiming apparatus and method of use
An apparatus and method of use for assisting in ghost ball aiming are provided herein for use in cue sports. The apparatus enables a player to align an object ball with a target and determine an aim line at which to propel a cue ball to send the object ball to the target. The apparatus is selectively engaged or selectively attached to a cue stick to provide a visual indication of the aim line along the length of the cue stick. A pivot point of the apparatus is placed in contact with the play surface and secures an absolute position on the play surface as the cue stick and apparatus are rotated from a target line to the aim line.
Handheld billiards bridge
Invention comprises a hand held device for controlling and assisting with the striking of billiard balls. A user of the device slides the device over his or her knuckles on their bridge hand and the device, rather than the user's fingers, controls and directs the movement of the cue stick. The devices consists of a rigid thermoplastic or similar material with four apertures, into which the user the inserts his or her fingers, and various protrusions creating semi-circular guides through and against which the user slides the pool cue. The guides through which the tapered fore part of the cue stick is placed are located above and adjacent to the finger holes. In certain circumstances, the user can use one of the finger holes for directing the cue stick. Additionally, certain embodiments of the device may have fully circular (enclosed) guides for the cue stick.
ROLLING POOL BRIDGE
A rolling bridge is provided that includes a single wheel having a length greater than its diameter. The rolling bridge includes a chassis positioned to cover at least a portion of the single wheel and having at least two forks that extend along opposite ends of the wheel. An axle secures the wheel to the forks of the chassis and allows rotation of the wheel with respect to the chassis. The chassis includes one or more clip extensions that extend upward to define at least a portion of a substantially cylindrical channel having two open ends and an axis that is orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the wheel. The cylindrical channel is configured to secure the rolling bridge to a pool cue.
Bridge and cue support apparatuses to aid users with disabilities to play billiards and pool
Provided are bridge support apparatuses and cue stick supporting apparatuses to aid a person with a disabled hand or hands, or to aid a person with a missing hand or two missing hands, to allow a person to effectively play games that require a cue stick or another game related stick that requires supporting, aiming and carrying, including the games of billiards and pool. The cue stick supporting apparatuses are adjustable to grip onto and hold a cue stick to be used and to be carried.
Adjustable cue bridge
The Bragg Bridge is the only pool bridge that permits the height of the bridge head to be raised or lowered and tilted upward or downward thereby providing more support positions than conventional bridges; helping the player to avoid miscues or inadvertent contact or fouling the cue ball when attempting an over the ball shot, reducing the shot difficulty.
CUE SPORT AIMING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF USE
An apparatus and method of use for assisting in ghost ball aiming are provided herein for use in cue sports. The apparatus enables a player to align an object ball with a target and determine an aim line at which to propel a cue ball to send the object ball to the target. The apparatus is selectively engaged or selectively attached to a cue stick to provide a visual indication of the aim line along the length of the cue stick. A pivot point of the apparatus is placed in contact with the play surface and secures an absolute position on the play surface as the cue stick and apparatus are rotated from a target line to the aim line.
Adjustable billiards bridge device
An adjustable billiards bridge device may comprise a body having a first end and an opposing second end with one or more central cue surfaces disposed on the body. A first leg may be pivotally coupled to the first end of the body, and the first leg may have one or more peripheral cue surfaces. A second leg may be pivotally coupled to the second end of the body, and the second leg may have one or more peripheral cue surfaces. A coupler may be positioned on the body between the first end and the second end. The coupler may be configured to couple the device to a positioning stick which may be used by an individual to position the device on a billiards table. The first leg and second leg may be individually movable relative to the body to enable the device to assume a plurality of configurations.
