ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to a golf bag, and more particularly to a support frame of the golf bag.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The conventional golf bag is generally provided with a support frame capable of holding securely the golf bag on a flat surface of the golf course. The golf course is not entirely flat; it has many depressions, elevations, and slopes. As a result, the support frame of the conventional golf bag is not adapted to support securely the golf bag on the golf course. A caddie often has to take pains to find a flat surface on the golf course to place the golf bag.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a golf bag with a support frame capable of supporting securely the golf bag on a golf course regardless of the surface features of the golf course.
In keeping with the principle of the present invention, the foregoing objective of the present invention is attained by a support frame comprising two expandable legs, each having an elastic element capable of compressing in response to a surface feature of the golf course. The support frame further comprises a movable base which is linked with the two expandable legs by a link rod. The two expandable legs are actuated by the link rod to expand at such time when the movable base is located on a surface of the golf course. As a result, the golf bag is securely supported on the surface by the two expandable legs and the movable base, which form together three supporting points.
The foregoing objective, features, functions, and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following detailed description of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
