Definitions
- This invention relates to golf equipment and more especially it relates to holders for golf clubs and putters in particular.
- a golf club holder comprises a body having a club-receiving passageway extending therethrough, through which passageway in use, a club shaft can pass so as to be retained within the passageway, the said body being adapted for attachment to a frame member of a golf cart or trolley by attachment means.
- the body may be elongate and comprise a main portion in which the passageway is formed and an integral base portion which extends parallel with the passageway and which is spaced apart therefrom.
- the passageway may be generally tubular.
- the passageway may be slotted longitudinally from end to end to provide a somewhat narrower neck opening, through which in use, a narrow end of a tapered club shaft can pass to slip down so as to be retained within the passageway by a wider end of the said shaft.
- the base portion may have end portions which extend beyond the passageway at each end thereof whereby the bod ⁇ ' is adapted for attachment to a frame member of a golf cart or trolley in use, by adhesive tape used to bind the ends tightly to the frame member.
- the adaptation of the body may alternatively or additionally comprise slots in the body which extend transversely of the passageway and which serve to receive plasties straps or the like for securing the club holder to a frame member of a golf cart or trolley.
- the adaptation of the body may alternatively or additionally comprise an external grove in the base portion which extends substantially parallel with the said passageway to provide a seat for a frame member of a golf cart or trolley, into which in use the frame member is received so as to be positively located.
- the grove may be V shaped so as to receive and positively locate a frame member of rectangular or circular cross-section.
- any generally upwardly extending frame member of a golf cart or trolley may lend itself to the attachment thereto of the putter holder, it is especially contemplated that the holder would in use be secured to a golf cart handle or handle extension member.
- the putter holder may be made from moulded plastics material.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of a putter holder
- Figure 2 is a side view of the putter holder shown in Figure 1
- Figure 3 is an end view of the putter holder shown in Figures 1,
- Figure 4 is perspective view of the putter holder shown in Figure 1 and,
- Figure 5 is a perspective view of a golf cart to which a putter holder is fitted.
- a putter holder 1 comprises an elongate body 2, having a main portion 2 a, and an integral base portion 2b, the base portion 2b, being spaced apart from the main portion by a middle portion 2 C 7 in which is formed a central aperture 2d, which extends through the middle portion and which is provided to facilitate manufacture of the putter holder 1, by a plastics moulding process.
- a club receiving passageway 3, is provided in the main portion 2 a which extends longitudinally therethrough.
- the passageway 3 is slotted longitudinally from end to end to provide a somewhat narrower neck opening 4, through which in use, a narrow end 5a of a putter 5, having a tapered putter shaft 5 b, can pass to slip down so as to be retained within the passageway 3, by a wider end 5c of the said shaft 5b, as shown in Figure 5.
- the passageway 3 is arranged to be long enough to provide a secure seat for a club so that it cannot move about therein.
- the passageway 3 is slotted thereby to enable a putter or other club to be easily placed therein
- the passageway may not be slotted and simply comprise an open ended tube into which a club shaft may be inserted so as to drop down to be retained therein by a portion of its shaft which is of greater diameter than the passageway, or by the club head.
- this alternative embodiment is not nearly so convenient.
- the base portion 2b, of the body 2 is formed with a V shaped grove 6, which extends from end to end parallel with the passageway 3.
- the grove 6, thus enables the holder 1, to be positively located against a handle 7, of a golf cart or trolley 8, as shown in Figure 5.
- the base portion 2 b, of the body 2 is provided with a pair of spaced apart slots 9a, 9b, in opposite ends 9c, 9d, of the body 2, which extend therethrough to accommodate a pair of plastics straps 10a, 10b, as shown in Figure 5, which are used to attach the holder 1, to the handle 7.
- the straps 10a, 10b are used for attachment of the putter holder 1, to the handle 7, any other means of attachment may additionally or alternatively be used.
- the ends 9c, 9d, which extend beyond the passageway 3, at each end thereof comprise an adaptation of the body which enable it to be secured to the handle 7, by means of adhesive tape.
- any convenient form of clamp, screw, or rivet fixing may be used.
- the putter holder 1, as herein described thus enables the putter 5, to be stored conveniently ready for immediate use on the cart or trolley 8, with its heavy head 5d, positioned well away from other clubs which would normally be stored in a golf bag 11, which is attached to and supported by the cart or trolley 8.
- the putter holder as herein described without departing from the scope of the invention and for example the holder 1, may be made of any suitable material and fixed by any suitable means such as screw clamps to the handle 7. It will also be appreciated that although the club holder herein described is eminently suitable for supporting a putter, it may alternatively be used for other clubs.
