i GOLF BAG.
Application filed Marchll, 1926. Serial` No. 97,127.
This invention relates to improvements in' golf bags. f v
rllhe primary object of the invention resides in the provision of av golf bagf which is constructed of metal or other relatively rigid material so as to withstand rough usage withouty showing the effects, `as it will be appreciated that the type of golf bags now' in use are usually constructed of flexiblematerial such as leather, canvasv or; the like and are noty capable of long-life for the reason that the weight of the golfv clubs .and otherparaphernalia carried therein tends to cause sagging of' the bag, thus disfiguring the-shape of the same.v
Another object of the invention is to provide a4 novel means for detachably mount ing an outer covering of water-proof material. tothe body of' the` bag to protect the body from wear and to lend to the bag an artistic appearance. The covering may be of various attractive colors and: readily removed or-replaced when wor-n, sol that the bag may always be kept in a neat condition, thus eliminating the expense of a new bag when the covering becomesy soiled.
A further object is to provide a golf bag in one end of which is arranged a golf ball compartment for carrying of the balls and into which compartment the handles of the wooden clubs extend while the shorter or iron clubs rest upon the bottom of the bag. This arrangement permits the heads of the clubs to extend an even distance from the open end of the bag so that a suitable cover may be passed thereoverto snugly hold the clubs therein.
With these and other objects in view, the invention resides in certain novel construction and combination and arrangement of parts, the essential features of which are hereinafter fully described7 are particularly pointed 'out in the appended claims, and are illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in wl1ich y Figure 1 is a perspective view of `my improved golf bag.
Figure 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view therethrough.
Figure 3 is a detail horizontal sectional view on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure l is a sectional perspective view showing the manner of att-aching the outer covering to the body of the bag.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the reference numeral 10 designates a hollow tubular member constructed of: a i
rigid andlight material such as aluminum, and` which is open at its top as at 11 for the insertion of the golf clubs to be carried thereby, while the opposite end ofthe member is internally screw threaded as at 12. for the reception of a removable screw cap 13. TheA interior of the tubular memberfis divided adjacent the bottom thereof by a partition 14, which has a central opening 15 therein. The partition 1A and cap 13 coact to 1 provide a golffball compartment 16, in .which a supply ofI golf balls may be carried. v
The exterior walls of the tubularmember 10 arel reduced in diameter for themajor portion of its length as at17 and which reduced portion isr provided with a longitudinally disposedrecess 1,8 in which is seated a female element 19, constructedof flat springy metal and which element has its lonf gitudinal edgesrolled tol provideyieldable portions 20. The portions 2O are normally spaced' from the walls ofthe recess to allow them to be slightlyy expanded for the purattractive appearance to the bag,v and yet" serve to protect the same. The meeting edges of the flexible material are overlapped and are clamped by means of a male element 22, which is in the form of a strip of springy material having its, longitudinal edges bent over as at 23. After the meeting edges of' the flexible material have been brought together, the male element 22 is pressed into engagement with the yieldable portiony 20 of the female element which causes the portions 20 to expand and allows the male element to vseat within the recess and be held therein by the portions 20. When the two elements are in co-acting'position, the overlapping ends ofthe flexible material are securely clamped which holds the flexible covering in a taut condition about the bag. The covering is prevented from longitudinal movement by means of the shoulders formed by the reduced portion A carrying handle or grip 24 is formed on the member 10 adjacent the top thereof Vwhile the top end of the. member is reduced as at 25 to receive any suitable cover which may be applied thereto for housing the club ends of the golf clubs. y l
Byproviding the opening 15 .in the par ytition 14, it will be seen that the handles of a the long clubs, namely those known as the wood clubs are passed through the opening and rest upon Athe cap 13, 4while the shorter clubs known as the iron clubs rest upon the partition 14, so that the heads of .it is possible to always keep the same in a neat and attractive condition.
What is claimed as new is l. A golf bag comprising a hollow rigid member', an outer flexible covering, and coacting means for removably holding said covering about said hollow rigid member,
said4 co-acting means including a part car-' ried by the outer wall of said hollowmember and countersunk below the exterior surface thereof, the meeting edges of said flexible covering overlapping each other, and a removable part engageable with said iirst part for clamping the meeting edges of said covering therebetween.
2. A golf bag comprising a hollow rigid member having a reduced exteriorl portion, a flexible covering of waterproof material encircling said reduced portion, and co-acting means for clamping and concealing the meeting edges of said covering for holding the same in a taut condition about said hollow rigid member.
8. A golf bag comprising a hollow rigid member. having a reduced exterior portion, a flexible covering of waterproof material encircling said reduced portion, and co-acting means for clamping and concealing the meeting edges of said covering for holding the same in a taut condition about said hollow rigid member, said co-acting means m-L cluding a female element carried*V by said hollow member and extending the length of said reduced portion, and a removable mal element engageable therewith` 4. A golf bag comprising a metallic hollow member open at the top end thereof, a
rest against said cap. f
In testimony whereof I have aiiixed my signature. f
