ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a golf bag and particularly to one which can move the golf clubs held therein to a higher position when the golf bag is propped against a support leg member thereof. The user of the golf bag can pick the desired one of the golf clubs more easily after same have been raised.
Referring to
FIG. 9
, a heretofore known golf bag comprises a main body
10
, a support leg member
30
, a first bottom plate
20
, a second bottom plate
40
and a connecting rod
50
.
The main body
10
is substantially cylindrical, and has a top opening provided for golf clubs to be put into or taken from the same. The main body
10
has a bottom, of which a rear part is a slope.
The first bottom plate
20
is pivoted on the bottom of the main body
1
.
The second bottom plate
40
is arranged inside the main body
10
, and connected to an inner support member
60
. The connecting rod
50
is pivoted to the first and the second bottom plates
20
,
40
from two ends thereof respectively.
The support leg member
30
has two support legs
301
, and is coupled to the straight side of the main body.
Thus, when the golf bag is propped against the support legs
301
, the bottom slope will rest on the ground, making the first bottom plate
20
pivot upwards, and forcing the second bottom plate
40
to pivot upwards. Consequently the inner support member
60
is raised and the golf clubs resting thereon are also moved to a higher position.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is a main object of the present invention to provide a golf bag capable of raising golf clubs therein, which can be used more easily.
The golf bag comprises:
a holding part provided for holding golf clubs;
a bottom part connected to a lower end of the holding part; the bottom has a front flat portion and a rear slope portion; the bottom part has two holding tubes projecting into the holding part; the holding tubes each has a guide slot lengthwise arranged thereon;
two sliding members each movably received in a respective one of the holding tubes; the sliding members each has a raising block passed through the guide slots of the holding tubes; the bottom part has elongated openings thereon for permitting the raising blocks of the sliding members to move therethrough;
a first raising plate pivoted to a lower side of the bottom part; the first raising plate having an upper side contacts lower ends of the sliding members;
a second raising plate movably received in the holding part, disposed on an upper side of the bottom part; the second raising plate has holes for permitting the holding tubes of the bottom part to be passed therethrough, and has a lower side resting on the raising block of the sliding members; the second raising plate has guide protrusions fitted onto guide trenches parallel to the holding tubes for guiding a movement thereof;
whereby the golf clubs are capable of being raised by disposing the golf bag in a sloping position where the rear slope part of the bottom part rests on the first raising plate with the first raising plate forcing the sliding members to move upwards to raise the second raising plate and golf clubs disposed thereon.
