GOLF BAG SUPPORT Filed Aprilr 11, 1928 JUAN /gw ,91
` ATTORNEYS. l
Patented July l, 1930l UNITED STATES DANEL PERRY BICKFORD, OF EDGEWOOD, RHODE 'ISLAND i GOLF-BAG SUPPORT Application filed April 11,
This invention relates to means for supporting golf bags.
An object of the invention 1s to prov1de a supporting member which may be attached 6 to golf bags, such member having a leg pivoted thereto and also being provided with means for retaining the leg in a xed inoperative y position when-the bag is being transported.
Another object is to produce an eiiicient,
strong and durable support for golf bags which may be economically constructed and operated.
Other objects and advantages will herein after appear.
The views of the drawings are Figure 1 is a perspective view of a golf bag provided with the support of my invention, showing the same in an operative position Figure 2 is a detail perspective of the support detached from the golfbag;
Figure 3 is afront elevation of the structure shown in Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a. vertical longitudinal section taken along the line 4 4 of Figure 3.
Figure 5 is a detail perspective of the upper portion of the supporting member, showing an alternative form of means for attaching the member to a golf bag; and
Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 5 showing another modification of the invention.
Referring to the drawings, golf bags usually comprise a body 11, which covers a suitable skeleton frame.
The frame has upper and lower annular bands 12 and 13 respectively, and the body 11 has aiiixed thereto a looped' strap 14 to provide a` handle. Preferably the strap 14 is positioned adjacent the upper end of the bag, immediately below the band 12.
The supporting device comprises an elongated member l'which may be rigidly attached to the upper, portion of a golf bag longitudinally thereof.
rlhe top of the memberl has a cross head formed integrally therewith, the arms 16 of such cross head being perforated, as shown at 17, for the reception of faste-ning means, such for instance as rivets 18,
As clearly shown in Figure 2, the arms of 192s. serial No. 269,112.
the cross head should be shaped to conform to the contour of the band 12.
Near the upper end of the vmember 15 there are. outwardly projecting perforated lugs 19,
three being shown in the present instance.
Tothese lugs are pivotally connected 'by means of a pin 20, the bifurcated portion of a block 21.
The block 21 is substantially rectangular in form and its face opposite the bifurcated portion is formed with a threaded recess 22 for receiving the upper threaded end 23 ofra supporting leg 24.
The leg 24' may be of any suitable length. It may be composed of telescoping sections, as shown in Figures 1, or it may be made of a single piece of material. However, the leg should only have a length suiicient to permit the golf bag to be disposed at an angle that will present the contents of the bag to the users in the desired manner.
The tip of the leg 24 should be pointed, as indicated at 25, so that the. end of the leg will readily penetrate the ground when the golf bag is being set in posit-ion.
Near the lower end of the member 15 are spaced vertical, elongated slots 26, through which is passed a flexible strap 27 adapted to encircle the bag, and, when buckled, to hold the bottom portion of the member 15 securely in place. Y
Beneath the slots 26, the member 15 is bag when the latter is being transported or l not in use. v
As shown, the clip may be formed from a suitable blank of sheet metal. The clip has a back 29 perforated to receive rivets 30 passed through openings in the member 15 so that the clip will be rigidly mounted on the member.
Extending laterally from the sides oi the back 29 are oppositely disposed fingers 31. These fingers are folded outwardly and inwardly in the manner clearly shown in Figure 2, so that they will be positioned in front of the face of the member 15.
The lingers are furthermore so shaped as to present a restricted passage or gap through l apply the device to a golf bag,
which the leg 24 may be passed when such leg is swung from an operative to an ino ratlve position, or vice versa. It shoul be noted that the normal position of the lingers 31 is such as to prevent dislod ment of the leg 24 from its engagement wit the clip, as will be readily understood.
By my invention I have provided a comparatively simple device wherein but a single supporting leg is utilized, and as the tip of the leg is adapted to be inserted in the ground, suiicient rigidity in the structure is provided to prevent accidental displacement of a golf bag when such bag 1s in the operative positive position shown by Figure 1.
' For the purpose of limiting the outward movement of the leg 24, the blfurcated portionof the block 21 may be formed with upwardly projecting shoulders 34 which are adapted to bear against stops 35 provided in the upper portion of the member 15 between the lugs 19 (see Figure 4) In some cases it is desirable to detachably and therefore in Figure 5 I have shown an embodiment of the invention wherein the arms 16 are each provided with attaching means in the form of hook-like fingers 36 formed from suitable resilient material and designed to be suspended from the upper band of a golf bag as will be readily understood.
Another modiication of the invention is shown in Figure 6, wherein the arms 16 are pivotally connected to the member 15 through hinge joints 40. As shown, the arms in this form of the invention, may be made considerably longer than in the case of those which are rigid with the member. One of the advantages of this construction is that the device can be attached to bags of varyin diameters, rivets being passed through per orations 41 in the arms 16.
It will be apparent that in all embodiments of the inventlon, the simplicity of construction enhances the value and usefulness of the device. The coordinated design of the member 15 and the parts carried thereby is such that the leg 24 will swing quickly into its folded position, and be retained in such position by the spring clip, when the bag is raised from an operative position for transportation purposes.
The invention set forth herein is, of course, susceptible' of various other modifications and adaptations. j
The invention claimed is A golf bag support comprising a bar to extend longitudinally of the bag, laterall extending curved arms at the upper end o said bar for partially encircling the bag, a plurality of spaced ears adjacent the upper end of said bar having aligned openings therethrough, a member hin dly connected to said spaced ears, said mem er having a recess in the end thereof, a tubular rod secured in said recess, and a ground engaging rod telescoping within said tubular ro means for hold- 1ng said rods in adjusted position, and a. spring cllp at the lowerend of said bar for releasably holding the rods in engagement therewith.
In testimony whereof I alix my si nature.
