Golf ball teeing apparatus

Abstract

A golf ball teeing apparatus for continuous teeing of a supply of golf balls for driving or the like is presented. The golf ball teeing apparatus includes a platform, a housing having two chambers, a reciprocable pair of camming plates with angular upper camming surfaces, a piston with a tee mounted thereon and an actuator. Each of the reciprocable camming plates are adapted for sliding through one of the two chambers. The housing also includes an input which communicates with a first of the two chambers wherein a first of the two reciprocable camming plates is located. Located within a second chamber is the piston which is adapted for slideably engaging the upper camming surface of a second camming plate. After entering the housing through the input and upon actuation of the first and second reciprocable camming plates, a golf ball is slid upwardly along the upper camming surface of the first camming plate within the first chamber of the housing as the piston and tee slides downwardly along the upper camming surface of the second camming plate within the second chamber of the housing. Once the golf ball reaches the apex of the upper surface of the first camming plate, it rolls downwardly onto the tee. The piston and tee are then moved back upwardly by a return of the reciprocable plates and is ready to be struck by a golfer.
