The fixing device is connected to the bag body and the stand assembly. The fixing device is a belt and has a bag body end mounted on the bag body and a stand end mounted on the stand assembly. A maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is selectively fixed so that the fixing device is capable of making the stand assembly unable to pivot away from the bag body when the maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is fixed, thereby preventing the loosened stand assembly from swaying arbitrarily with respect to the bag body.
Description
- The present invention relates to a component of sports equipment, especially to a fixing device for a stand of a golf bag.
- A golf bag is made for loading golf equipment such as golf clubs, and is mainly designed with double or single shoulder strap for a user to carry. A conventional golf bag has a bag body and a stand assembly having at least one stand and at least one stand retracting device. An end of the stand is pivotally mounted on the bag body so that the stand can be pivotally unfolded relative to the bag body, thereby allowing a user to stably incline and place the golf bag on the ground for use. The stand retracting device is an elastic rod connected between the bag body and the stand. When the stand is unfolded relative to the bag body, the stand retracting device flexes by its own elasticity and supports the stand. When the stand is not in use, the stand retracting device pulls the stand toward the bag body by its own elasticity to make the stand abut on the bag body.
- However, after long time of use, the pivoting structure between the stand and the bag body will be loosened and the stand retracting device will be worn out or suffer from elastic fatigue, and therefore the stand retracting device loses the effect of keeping the stand abutting on the bag body. As a result, when the user is carrying the golf bag, the stand will sag under the gravity and sway relative to the bag body, such that the stand ends up hitting the bag body and making noises. Besides, when the stand is unfolded relative to the bag body and abuts the ground, the loosened pivoting structure and the elastically fatigued stand retracting device will not be able to stably fix the angle between the stand and the bag body, so the stand becomes unable to stably support the bag body, which may cause the bag body to fall over.
- To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides a golf bag and a fixing device for a stand of the golf bag to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
- The main objective of the present invention is to provide a golf bag and a fixing device for a stand of the golf bag, wherein the fixing device is capable of binding a stand assembly and making the stand assembly unable to pivot relative to the bag body. Therefore by connecting the stand assembly and the bag body with the fixing device, the present invention prevents the loosened stand assembly from swaying arbitrarily with respect to the bag body. Besides, by mounting the fixing device on both the stand assembly and the strap, the fixing device will be pulled synchronously as the user pulls the strap to carry the golf bag, so that the stand assembly can be pulled toward the bag body and bound to the bag body firmly during carrying.
- The golf bag has a bag body, a stand assembly, and at least one fixing device. An end of the stand assembly is pivotally mounted on an outer surface of the bag body. The at least one fixing device is connected to the bag body and is connected to the stand assembly. Each of the at least one fixing device is a belt and has a bag body end and a stand end. The bag body end is mounted on the bag body. The stand end is mounted on the stand assembly. A maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is selectively fixed so that each of the at least one fixing device is capable of making the stand assembly unable to pivot away from the bag body when the maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is fixed.
- Since a maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is selectively fixed, by mounting the bag body end of the fixing device on the bag body and mounting the stand end of the fixing device on the stand assembly, the fixing device will be capable of binding the stand assembly and making the stand assembly unable to pivot relative to the bag body when the maximum distance between the stand end and the bag body end is fixed. Therefore, the present invention prevents the loosened stand assembly from swaying arbitrarily with respect to the bag body.
- Other objectives, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the golf bag in accordance with the present invention; -
FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a fixing device in accordance with the present invention; and -
FIG. 7 is an exploded view of the fixing device inFIG. 1 . - With reference to
FIGS. 1 and 3 , a first embodiment of a golf bag in accordance with the present invention comprises abag body 10, astand assembly 20, and at least onefixing device 30. - In the first embodiment, the
bag body 10 has amain body 11 and astrap assembly 12. Thestrap assembly 12 is connected to themain body 11, and thestrap assembly 12 has astrap 121. - An end of the
stand assembly 20 is pivotally mounted on an outer surface of thebag body 10. Specifically, in the first embodiment, thestand assembly 20 has twostands 21 and twostand retracting devices 22. Each of the two stands 21 is a rod. An end of each of the twostands 21 is pivotally mounted on the outer surface of thebag body 10. The twostand retracting devices 22 are respectively connected to the two stands 21 and are flexible. The twostand retracting devices 22 are configured to make the two stands 21 abut on the outer surface of thebag body 10. The structure of thestand assembly 20 is not limited thereto, as thestand assembly 20 can also be implemented with only onestand 21 and only onestand retracting device 22 in other embodiments. - With further reference to
FIGS. 2 and 4 , the at least onefixing device 30 is connected to thebag body 10 and is connected to thestand assembly 20. Specifically, in the first embodiment, an amount of the at least onefixing device 30 is two, and the twofixing devices 30 are respectively connected to the two stands 21 of thestand assembly 20. But in other embodiments, the amount of the at least onefixing device 30 can also be one, and in that case thefixing device 30 is connected to one of the two stands 21 and thebag body 10. Each of the at least onefixing device 30 is a belt and has abag body end 31 and astand end 32. - The
bag body end 31 is mounted on thebag body 10. Specifically, in the first embodiment, the bag body ends 31 of the twofixing devices 30 are mounted on thestrap assembly 12 of thebag body 10, and more specifically are mounted on thestrap 121 of thestrap assembly 12. But in other embodiments, the bag body ends 31 of the twofixing devices 30 can also be directly fixed to the outer surface of thebag body 10. - The
stand end 32 is mounted on thestand assembly 20. Specifically, in the first embodiment, the stand ends 32 of the twofixing devices 30 are respectively mounted on the two stands 22 of thestand assembly 20. A maximum distance between thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31 is selectively fixed, so that each of the at least onefixing device 30 is capable of making thestand assembly 20 unable to pivot away from thebag body 10 when the maximum distance between thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31 is fixed. In other words, since a length of the belt-type fixing device 30 is selectively fixed, when the length of thefixing device 30 is fixed and the two ends of thefixing device 30, which are thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31, are respectively mounted on thebag body 10 and thestand assembly 20, thestand assembly 20 will be restricted by the length of thefixing device 30, thereby being unable to pivot away from thebag body 10. - With further reference to
FIGS. 6 and 7 , specifically, in the first embodiment, thefixing device 30 further has afirst segment 331, asecond segment 332, amale buckle 341, afemale buckle 342, astand surrounding segment 351, astand snap button 352, a bagbody surrounding segment 361, and a bagbody snap button 362. - The
bag body end 31 is formed on thefirst segment 331, and thestand end 32 is formed on thesecond segment 332. Themale buckle 341 is mounted on thefirst segment 331, and in the first embodiment, themale buckle 341 has an adjusting segment. Thefirst segment 331 is moveably mounted in the adjusting segment, and is selectively fixed to the adjusting segment, so that themale buckle 341 is capable of moving toward or away from thebag body end 31 on thefirst segment 331, and is capable of being fixed relative to thebag body end 31 on thefirst segment 331. Thefemale buckle 342 is mounted on thesecond segment 332 and detachably buckles themale buckle 341. - The
stand surrounding segment 351 is formed on thestand end 32 and surrounds thestand assembly 20, and specifically surrounds one of thestands 21 of thestand assembly 20 in the first embodiment. Thestand snap button 352 is securely mounted on thestand surrounding segment 351 and thestand end 32, and selectively buckles thestand surrounding segment 351 and thestand end 32, so that the fixingdevice 30 is detachably mounted on thestand assembly 20 by thestand surrounding segment 351 and thestand snap button 352. The bagbody surrounding segment 361 is formed on thebag body end 31, and surrounds thestrap assembly 12. The bagbody snap button 362 is securely mounted on the bagbody surrounding segment 361 and thebag body end 31, and selectively buckles the bagbody surrounding segment 361 and thebag body end 31, so that the fixingdevice 30 is detachably mounted on thestrap assembly 12 by the bagbody surrounding segment 361 and the bagbody snap button 362. In addition, thestand snap button 352 and the bagbody snap button 362 can also be implemented as hook buckles, ring buckles, or hook and loop fasteners, as long as the implemented component is able to respectively fix thestand surrounding segment 351 and the bagbody surrounding segment 361 after surrounding the bag body and thestand assembly 20. - With the structure of the fixing
device 30 as mentioned above, when thebag body 10 needs to be pivotally unfolded relative to thebag body 10, the fixingdevice 30 is adapted to be separated into two segments via thefirst segment 331, thesecond segment 332, themale buckle 341, and thefemale buckle 342 to make the maximum distance between thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31 become unlimited, thereby removing the restriction on thestand assembly 20. Additionally, when thestand assembly 20 needs to be bound, the separated fixingdevice 30 is assembled by buckling themale buckle 341 and thefemale buckle 342 to fix the maximum distance between thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31, thereby restricting thestand assembly 20 and making thestand assembly 20 unable to pivot away from thebag body 10. Moreover, the length of the fixingdevice 30 can be adjusted by selectively fixing the adjusting segment of themale buckle 341 and thefirst segment 331. Further, with thestand surrounding segment 351 and the bagbody surrounding segment 361 surrounding the corresponding parts, and thestand snap button 352 and the bagbody snap button 362 respectively buckling the two surrounding segments, thebag body end 31 and thestand end 32 can be detachably mounted on thebag body 10 and thestand assembly 20, respectively. - The structure of the fixing
device 30 is not limited to the above mentioned in other embodiments, as the fixingdevice 30 can be implemented without thefirst segment 331, thesecond segment 332, themale buckle 341, thefemale buckle 342, thestand surrounding segment 351, thestand snap button 352, the bagbody surrounding segment 361, and the bagbody snap button 362, but is implemented as a length-fixed belt respectively fixed to thebag body 10 and the stand assembly with two ends, thereby achieving the same effect of restricting thestand assembly 20 and making thestand assembly 20 unable to pivot away from thebag body 10. - With further reference to
FIG. 5 , a structure of a second embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, and the differences are as follows. In the second embodiment, thestrap assembly 12A has aconnector 121A, twostraps 122A, and two connectingbelts 123A. An end of each of thestraps 122A is connected to theconnector 121A, and another end of each of thestraps 122A is connected to themain body 11A. An end of each of the connectingbelts 123A is connected to theconnector 121A, and another end of each of the connectingbelts 123A is connected to themain body 11A. Further, in the second embodiment, the bag body end 31 of the fixingdevice 30A is mounted on one of the two connectingbelts 121A. In other words, thebag body 10A is implemented with double straps in the second embodiment, thereby allowing a user to carry thebag body 10A with both shoulders. In the first embodiment, the bag body is implemented with one single strap, thereby allowing the user to carry the bag body with one shoulder. - Since a maximum distance between the
stand end 32 and thebag body end 31 is selectively fixed, by mounting the bag body end 31 of the fixingdevice 30 on thebag body 10 and mounting the stand end 32 of the fixingdevice 30 on thestand assembly 20, the fixingdevice 30 will be capable of binding thestand assembly 20 and making thestand assembly 20 unable to pivot relative to thebag body 10 when the maximum distance between thestand end 32 and thebag body end 31 is fixed. Therefore, the present invention prevents the loosenedstand assembly 20 from swaying arbitrarily with respect to thebag body 10. - Besides, by the two ends of the fixing
device 30 respectively mounted on thestand assembly 20 and thebag body 10, the fixingdevice 30 will be pulled synchronously when the user pulls thestrap 121 to carry the golf bag. Therefore, during carrying, thestand assembly 20 can be pulled toward thebag body 10 and be firmly bound to thebag body 10 automatically without the need to manually adjust the length of the fixingdevice 30. - Furthermore, a junction of the stand end 32 of the fixing
device 30 and thestand 21 is below a junction of thestand retracting device 22 and thestand 21. In other words, on thestand 21, the junction of the fixingdevice 30 and thestand 21 is farther away from a pivoting end where thestand 21 is pivotally mounted on thebag body 10, thereby allowing the fixingdevice 30 to pull thestand 21 with a longer moment arm to bind thestand 21 with less effort. - Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and features of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
