Description
June 19, 1956 H. MOWRY COLLAPSIBLE GOLF BAG STANDARD Filed July 28, 1952 INVENTOR IVAN H. MOWRY ATTORNEY United States Patent 2,751,176 COLLAPSIBLE GOLF BAG STANDARD Ivan H. Mowry, Spartanburg, S. C. Application July 28, 1952, Serial No. 301,267 1 Claim. (Cl. 24896) This invention relates to a support means for a golf bag an particularly to a collapsible standard to which One of the inconveniences in playing golf is that if no human caddy is used, the player must set his bag of clubs on the ground before making a shot. If he needs another club than the one he is holding for the stroke,
game and, at times, causes the player to lose his touch. Wheeled carriers have been used to avoid this inconvenience, but such wheeled carriers are limited in their use since they cannot conveniently be taken into the rough.
It is, therefore, one object of this invention to remove e petty annoyances caused by not having the instant selection of a golf club available to a player.
Fig. 5 is a top plan view of the upper attaching means for the strap which holds the bag in position.
Fig. 6 is a top plan view of the bottom holding means for the bag.
Fig. 7 is a top plan view of the pivot ears for the legs of the support.
Fig. 8 is a top plan view of the pivot ears for the linkage connecting the legs to the main support body.
Fig. 9 is a top plan view of the means for holding the legs in their folded position.
Referring now in greater detail to the drawing wherein similar reference characters refer to similar parts, there is shown a golf bag A of standard construction which has attached to it a support member B.
The support B comprises a tube 10 of any desired material, although aluminum is preferred. The tube 10 is open at both ends. At its upper end, the tube is provided with a C-shaped member 12 which is also preferably made welding, At the other end of the tube is provided a golf bag bottom support 14. The support 14 portion 20 integral with tubular portion 16 and spaced from the portion 18. A recess 22 is formed in the projecting foot portion 20 to receive the rim or flange customarily present on the bottom of a golf bag.
A pair of cars 24 are formed on the periphery of tube 10 and to these ears are pivoted a pair of legs 26. Also pivoted to the legs 26 at points spaced from the ears 24 A C-shaped member 48 is attached to the tube 10 at its lower portion and is adapted to keep the legs in folded position.
tions are looped through openings 56 in the C-shaped portion 18.
In operation, when the bag is to be placed in position, it is lowered to the ground with the point 36 of the rod 34 abutting against the ground first. downwardly, the rod 34 remains stationary while the tube slides downwardly relative thereto.
42 abutting the-ground. The golf bag is then in operative standing position.
When the bag is picked up, the spring 46 automatically moves the rod downwardly, causing the links 28 to move downwardly, carrying the legs '26 with them. The legs 26 are then secured in their folded position by enclosing them'within themember 48.
Although this invention has been described in considerable detail, such description is intended as being illustrative rather than limiting, since the invention may be variously embodied, and the scope of the invention is to be determined as claimed.
What is claimed as the invention is:
A readily attachable and detachable support means for golf bags or the like comprising an elongated tubular memberof a length substantially equal to a golf bag, a golf bag top embracing and securing means comprising a rigid G-shaped member and flexible member thereon secured to the top end of said elongated tubular member, a golf bag bottom supporting and embracing means comprising a rigid C-shaped member and a flexible member thereon for embracing the golf bag and a recessed projecting foot portion adapted to extend underneath the golf bag, a spring-pressed rod slidable within said elongated tubular member, a slot in said tubular member, linkage connected to said rod and extending through said slot, and legs pivoted at their intermediate portions to said linkage,
said legs being additionally pivoted at one end to the outer periphery of said tubular member,-said rod, when-pressed against the ground, adaptedzto cause said linkage to pivotally move the free ends of said legs from a position jacent said tubular member to an extended position away from said tubular member, and said rod, when removed from contact with the ground, causing said linkage to return the free ends of said legs to ;a position adjacent said tubular member, the ground engaging ends .of ,said rod and said legs having ground penetrating points and penetration limiting rings thereon spaced from saidipolnts.
