Application filed September 12, 1927. Serial R0. 218,985.
The invention aims to provide a new and improved leg-equipped support in whlchthe legs are normally folded substantially against the bag but may readily be extended to support said bag in an inclined osition, allowing the various clubs to be rea 11y taken from and inserted into the bag.
With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject matter herein after described and claimed, the description being supplemented by the accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation partly broken away and in section, looking in the direction of the arrow A of Fig. 1.
The drawing above briefly described a golf bag may be considered as illustrating the preferred form of construction and while this coned, it is to be understood that within the scope of the invention as claimed, variations may be made.
The numerals 3 and 4 on the drawing denote upper and lower bands to surroun the ends of a golf bag B, any desired means such as the tongues 5 being employed for securing the ends, of each band .together. Extending between the two bands 3-4, are two bars Gwhich are secured at 7 to said bands, at substantially diametrically opposite points. upper portions of the bars 6, are two vertical plates 8 preferably of substantially triangular form as seen in Fig.1. Two legs 9 have their upper ends loosely pivoted at 10 to the plates 8 respectively, said legs 'normally lying at the outer sides of the bars 6, in which positions they may be held by spring clips 11 secured to the lower ends of said bars. Two substantially vertical levers 12 are fulcrumed between their ends at 13 to the plates. 8 respectively, at points,
spaced above the pivots; 10, the upper ends with the upper end of one of the levers 12 -to swing these levers in leg-retracting direc- 81? tion, as soon as the bag is lifted and the legs am free from the When the legs Riveted or otherwise secured to swing inwardly they snap into the cli s 11 and are thus securely held against acci ental projection. I
The plates 8 are provided withcams 18 which may well be formed'b outwardly stamping portions of said p ates. These cams are disposed in the outward paths of the legs 9 and asthese legs are swung outwardly away from the ba%B to or sub stantially to the position of ig. 1, the cams 8' outwardly swing said legs away from each other into diverging relation as shown in Fig. 2, thus insuring that the leg-su ported bag shall not accidentally tip laterafiy. To further insure against tipping and slippage of the bag, the band 4 is preferably provided with a shoe 19 having pointed ground-engaging portions 20.
Preferably used with the parts above described,-are two curved metal straps 21-22 which are secured to the plates 8 and extend around opposite portions of the bag B, assisting in holding said plates in rigidly spaced relation. f
With "the legs folded, the bag B may be ecarried by the usual handle H. When it .is desired to support the bag in position to permit removal and insertion of clubs however, the levers 12 are rocked by means of the handle 14, thus outwardly swinging the legs 9 away from the bag and causing the cams 18 to swing said levers laterally away from each other as shown in Fig. 2.. The bag may then be effectively supported upon the shoe 19 and the legs 9. When the bag is x to be carried to another place, it is simply necessary to lift it by means of the handle into play to restore the levers 12.and legs 9 to their normal positions, and in such posi- When this is done, the spring 16 comes tions, the legs 9 are held by the cli s 11.
Obviously, asthe legs swing inwar l or t rdly with regard to the bag B an th earns 18 efiectrelative lateral movement of said legs, the levers 12 must spring. These levers are of suitable material to permit such sprmgmg wlthout danger of being permanently distorted from their proper shape.
Preferably the cams 18 are rovided with stops 18! to limit the outwar swinging of the legs 9, and to hold these excessive spreading, guidebooks 18 are securedto said legs and slidably engaged with the lower edges of the cams.-
legs against It will be seen from the foregoing that]:v
novel provision has been made for attaina ing the desired end, and while the details herein disclosed are preferable, attention 18 again invited to the fact that within the scope of the invention as claimed, variations may be made.
