GOLF BAG Filed July 2, 1951 1N VEN TUR. Y wel MMM B Patented May 16,v 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT oFFlcE ROBERT T. MULLINS,'OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR TO A. G SPALDING & BROS.,
OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A. CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY Y GOLF BAG Application filed July 2, 1931. Serial No. 548,279.
This invention relates to golf bags of the type having a folding hood by which the bag may be completely closed and locked for security in shipping and storing.
A principal object of the invention resides in the provision of a protecting sleeve within the hood, whereby the wooden golf clubs are protected from the iron clubs when the hood is closed and in the shipping position.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the description proceeds.
VVhilea preferred form of the invention has been disclosed for purposes of illustra- 15 tion, it should be understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is an elevation of the upper end of the golf bag, showing the hood raised with the clubs inserted therein, preparatory to closing the hood for shipping; y
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 but showing the bag in playing position.
Referring to the drawing more particularly, indicates the body of a golf bag which may be of an ordinary type, formed of leather or other suitable material, 11 is a flexible hood which may be pulled up over the ends of the clubs toprotect them during shipping and storing, as indicated in Figure 1, or which may be folded down yinside the bag when the bag is in playing position as indicated in Figure 2. A suitable fastening device,`as indicated at 12, may be used to close the hood when it is in the position of Figure 1, and the fastening means may be secured by a lock 13.
The particular feature of this invention is the protecting sleeve ll'which is located on the inside of thehood 11. This protecting sleeve is formed of leather or other suitable flexible material and extends vertically of the hood having its sides secured to the hood by stitching or other suitable fastening means. This protecting sleeve is of such a size and is so located on the interior of the hood that when the Wood clubs indicated at 15k are placed in position with their shafts extending through the sleeve, the shanks of the Wood clubs are protected against injury by the iron clubs 16. It should be quite apparent that the iron clubs being loose in the bag will rattle about duringpshipment, but due to the presence of the protecting sleeve 14 they cannot come into direct contact with the wood clubs.
The advantages of this construction will be evident to all golfers who have had experience with shipping clubs in a bag of a conventional type, as they are familiar with ythe inevitable injury to the wood clubs.
lt should be clearly yunderstood that the protecting sleevela is used only when the bag is prepared for shipping and that this protecting sleeve does not take the place of the ordinary separating strap 17 used to separate the wood and iron clubs during play.
I claim:
l. A golf bag comprising a body, a flexible hood adapted to extend above the body to a protecting position over golf clubs inserted in the body, a protecting sleeve of flexible material open at its upper and lower ends attached to the inside of the hood, the opening through the sleeve being parallel to the vertical axis of the body of the bag.
2. A golf bag comprising a body, a flexible hood adapted to extend above the body to a protecting position over golf clubs inserted in the body, a protecting sleeve of flexible material open at its upper and lower ends attached to the inside of the hood, the opening through the sleeve being parallel to the vertical axis of the body of the bag, the sleeve being of sufficient length and so located as to completely cover the shanls of the wood clubs over the zone adjacent the heads of the iron clubs when the clubs are packed for shipping.
ROBERT T. MULLINS.
