1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates to an art regarding a billiard table and particularly a faceplate of a billiard table.

2. Description of Related Art

Playing billiards is a popular exercise being suitable for people who are 5 years old through 95 years old, an exercise well-nigh popular with the old and the young. Further, it is an activity for a social intercourse in an upper-class society, and a billiard table is very widespread in a large-scale company or a private house. Cue sports may be divided into 3 major categories, Pool from USA, Snooker from England, and Carom from France and Spain that are representative. The billiard tables are slightly different in size; for example, a fancy billiard table ranges from 6 inches to 12 inches in maximum, secondly Carom ranges from 5 inches to 10 inches, and Snooker ranges from 4.5 inches to 9 inches in minimum. An existing billiard table is generally structured with a slate comprising marble, shale, or cultural stone, which is single and certainly thick. Because the cost of slate is higher, the entire billiard table is very expensive; especially, the slate is pretty much heavy, and regarding the billiard table in each size, if assembling the entire slate, a user gets trouble.

Consequently, because of the technical defects of described above, the applicant keeps on carving unflaggingly through wholehearted experience and research to develop the present invention, which can effectively improve the defects described above.

In this invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned defects in the existing art, an easy and convenient faceplate of a billiard table that is low in cost and easy in assembly is mainly provided.

It is the other object in this invention to provide the faceplate of billiard table that is designed with an exterior edge wrapping for a fully consistent form and an effectively advanced texture of outline.

In order to achieve the objects, the following approach of technology is applied.

The faceplate of billiard table comprises a piece of entire substrate on which a block of entire slate is adhered or at least of blocks of flat slates may be put together.

The substrate is a woody plywood, MDF, or aluminum-plastic plate. The area of substrate is slightly smaller than that of entire slate or that of pieces of stones put together. Along a side of the substrate and below the slate, an edge board is adhered that is level with a side of the slate, in which the material of edge board is the same as that of slate.

The substrate and the slate are thick at 4˜25 mm.

A tooth nail is fast fixed between the substrate and the slate, in which a thru hole is formed on the slate for accommodation. One end of the quick tooth nail is fixed passing through the accommodation thru hole and the substrate.

As an advantage of this invention, one or many blocks of slates are assembled on the piece of full light substrate, which is instead of the design with a single marble, in order to reduce the thickness of slate and effectively lower the cost of slate and make easy and convenient the entire faceplate for achievement of easy assembly. Further, multiple blocks of slates may be assembled one by one for achievement of easy assembly. On the other hand, with the edge board, the exterior of substrate is properly wrapped in design so that the form of faceplate is consistent, which effectively avoid the exposed substrate from layering and then effectively exalts the texture of outline and presently heightens the grade of a product.
