By the way, a golf bag has a plurality of partitions provided in the upper opening, and the partitions are used to distribute the golf clubs according to their sizes and store them in the partitions. However, the head of the golf club projects upwards,
Further, since the golf bag is eccentric from the shaft, the center of gravity of the golf bag is located above and is deviated, and the golf bag as a whole is in an unstable state.

[0004]

As described above, the golf bag has a high center of gravity due to the head portion of the golf club being located above, and the number of golf clubs housed in each partition is Depending on the position, the golf bag is in an unstable state. Therefore, at the driving range, the wind causes the golfer to fall, and at the golf course, the ground may tilt due to sloping (undulations, irregularities, etc.) or strong winds, which may interfere with practice or play and may cause a shock when the golfer falls. May hurt clubs.

[0005] At a golf driving range, practice is performed while leaning against a predetermined place or a pillar, and at a golf course, the golf bag is played sideways on the fairway so that the golf bag does not fall. In particular, in a place where undulations are severe, such as on a short course, the golf bag is unavoidably left in a state of being laid sideways, which naturally results in the soiling of the golf bag.

However, if the golf bag is laid down sideways, it takes more time than necessary to select and take out or store the golf club.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent the golf bag from easily falling due to wind or a gentle inclination.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a fall prevention device for a golf bag according to the present invention is provided with an upper casing member fixed to the bottom of the golf bag and rotatable with respect to the upper casing member. A casing member formed of the lower casing member provided, and a fall prevention member that expands and contracts from the casing member, and one of the casing members is provided with a sliding groove in which the fall prevention member slides outward from the central portion, The fall prevention member is inserted into the sliding groove, and an engagement member is provided inside the fall prevention member.

With the above structure, when the fall prevention member is extended,
By rotating the upper part of the golf bag in one direction from the state of standing the golf bag on the ground or the like, the lower surface of the lower casing member does not rotate due to friction with the ground surface or the like, and is provided inside the fall prevention member. The engagement member moves in a state of being engaged with the engagement groove, and this movement causes the fall prevention member to extend from the casing member along the sliding groove. Further, when the fall prevention member is contracted, the upper casing of the golf bag is rotated in a direction opposite to the above direction so that the lower casing member does not rotate and the engagement member provided inside the fall prevention member does not rotate. The fall prevention member contracts in the casing member along the sliding groove by the movement while being engaged with the engagement groove.

Thus, by converting the rotational movement of the golf bag into the expansion / contraction movement of the fall prevention member, the fall prevention member can be expanded and contracted outward from the central portion of the bottom of the golf bag, so that the golf bag stands upright. It stabilizes in the state.
