GOLF BAG CARRIER Filed May 1, 1945 Patented Apr. 30, 1946 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GOLF BAG CARRIER Alfred Alexander Strain, Miami, Fla.
Application May 1, 1945, Serial No. 591,355
3 Claims.
This invention relates to wheeled carriers, and more particularly to a folding wheeled carrier for golf bags.
An object of the invention is to provide a wheeled carrier so constructed as to permit its being folded into a compact form for carr in when not in use.
Other objects will more particularly appear in the course of the following detailed description.
The invention consists in the novel construction, arrangement, and combinations of parts hereinafter more particularly described and claimed.
One sheet of drawings accompanies this specification as part thereof, in which like reference characters indicate like parts throughout.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a rear view of the improved carrier extended;
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the device extended;
Figure 3 is a side view of the device folded for carrying;
Figure 4 is a plan view of the device folded for carrying; and,
Figure 5 is a fragmentary view partly in crosssection showing details of the swivel joint for the wheel-carrying arms and the lower extension of the main standard.
The present invention is designed for the convenience of golfers under conditions where caddies are not readily available and the object has been to produce a light, efiicient carrier for a golf bag which can be folded into an extremely compact form so as to be conveniently carried in a car to and from the golf course or stored in a locker on the golf course.
Referring to the drawing, a standard I herein illustrated as a tubular member is provided having on its upper end a tenon part 2 adapted to seat between the bifurcated portions 3 of a handle extension I, having a hand grip 8, which handle can be adjusted with respect to the standard i by means of a wing bolt 4.
The lower end of the standard i is itself bifurcated into portions I 4 between which are adapted to seat a tenon portion l5 formed as an offset lug associated with an extension standard l6 which may also be of tubular construction. The extension standard It is pivoted through its tenon portion l5 and the parts I! of standard I as by pivot l1 and held in adjusted position as by wing bolt i8.
Intermediate the swivel Joints thus described the standard I is provided on diametrical sides wardly toward the axis of the standard 1.
with planarbearing faces 1-1, which bearing faces, it will be noted from Figure 1, lie in angularl disposed planes inclining inwardly and upsociated with these bearing faces 1-1. are two arcuate arms 8-8, each of which has one end formed into a planar bearing face complementary to the bearing faces 1-1 and adapted to seat thereon. The arms 8-8 are pivoted with respect to standard I as by bolts 9 and wing nuts l0 so as to permit the securing of the arms 8-8 in either extended or folding position with respect to the standard I. Immediately below the bearing faces 1-! of standard I is a transverse bracket member ll secured to standard i as by rivets l2 and having holes adjacent its opposed ends adapted to register with threaded holes in the arcuate arms 8-8 to receive wing bolts l3-i3, so that when the arcuate arms 8-8 are fully extended they will be reinforced in that extended position by being secured to the transverse bracket ii.
The free ends of the arcuate arms 8-8 are formed as offset spindles Iii-l 9, upon which spindles are journaled the wheels 20-20.
By reference to Figures 3 and 4 it will be observed that when not in use this carrier can be very compactly arranged by folding the handle part 5 down against the main standard i and by folding the arcuate arms 8-8 upwardly against the main standard, in which swivel movement of the arcuate arms 8-8 it will be observed that by reason of the inclined bearing surfaces 1-1 the wheels are not only brought upwardly ad- Jacent the main portion of the standard I but they are brought together transversely so as to occupy a very compact position transversely of the standard I, as shown more particularly in Figure 4. The various joints can be tightened in the folded position by reason of the wing bolt pivots and in this folded position the device is very compact and can readily be stored in a baggage carrier of an automobile or in a locker such as is commonly provided in golf course quarters.
Various modifications in the particular form of the various parts will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in the art but within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
Having thus described my invention. I claim:
1. Folding bag carrier comprising a standard having oppositely disposed plane bearing surfaces, the planes oi said bearing surfaces anguiarly disposed with respect to the long axis of the standard, arms each having one end formed as a bearing face disposed at an angle to the long axis of the arm adapted to seat on one of the bearings on the standard, means for swiveling said arms on the standard, the free end of each arm formed with an offset spindle and a wheel on each spindle.
2. Folding bag carrier comprising a standard formed with oppositely disposed bearing faces angularly disposed with respect to the long axis of the standard, arcuate arms each formed with an end bearing face, means for adJustably swiveling said arms with their end bearing faces engaging the bearing faces of the standard, said arms having their free ends formed as an oflset spindle, wheels on said spindles, a handle having one end pivoted on one end oi the standard, an extension standard having one end pivoted to sesame the other end of the standard and means for securing a golf bag or the like to the standard members.
3. A bag carrier comprising a standard formed with angularly disposed bearing faces on opposite sides, arcuate arms each having an end bearing face, means for adjustably swiveling said arms with said bearing faces engaging the nearing faces on the standard, the arms having their free ends formed as offset spindles, wheel on. said spindles, a transverse bracket carried by the standard and means for securing the arms with respect to said bracket, a handle member and an extension standard, the end of the handle member and upper end of the standard formed with complementary mortise and tenon parts to provide a pivoted Joint, the bottom end of the standard slotted, the end of the standard extension formed with an offset portion and pivoted in the slot of the standard, with means for securing a golf bag to the standard and standard extension.
