ABSTRACT:
A golf bag stand having both an actuated state and a disabled state. The bag has two legs pivotally mounted side by side at the top of the bag. Each leg carries a sliding bracket which can be held in a disabled position and an actuating position. The two arms of a V-shaped spring push rod fit within the bracket, the arms being spring-pressed towards one another. The lower end of this rod forms a projector. When the stand is in its disabled state, the projector does not extend beyond the base of the bag; when in its actuated state, the projector extends two to three inches below the base of the bag. When the device is in its actuated state and the user puts the bag down on its base, the projector touches the ground and is forced upwardly relative to the bag. This forces the legs to swing outwardly, forming, with the bag itself, a tripod-like stand for the bag.
