Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a golf bag, and more particularly to a golf bag provided with a removable telescopic tube.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, traditional golf bags do not have a telescopic tube function. Usually, they are not recommended for transportation in a horizontal position and cannot provide good protection for golf clubs during transportation. However, their advantage is that they are relatively light in weight and more convenient and simple during normal use. On the other hand, golf bags with telescopic tubes have better protection and can protect golf clubs well during transportation. However, due to the weight of the telescopic tube assembly, the overall weight of the bag becomes relatively heavy. When there is no need for normal transportation use, the function of the telescopic tube is very rarely used, and the telescopic tube cannot be removed, which is relatively inconvenient.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] The main object of the present invention is to provide a golf bag with a removable telescopic tube that allows users to remove and attach the telescopic tube inside the golf bag by themselves, improving the functionality of the bag.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] To achieve the above object of the invention, the golf bag provided with a removable telescopic tube provided by the present invention includes a bag body, a head frame assembly, and a telescopic tube. The bag body has an accommodation space inside and an opening at the top that communicates with the accommodation space. A plurality of brackets are provided in the accommodation space. One end of each of the plurality of brackets is fixed to the bottom of the bag body, and the other end extends along the direction approaching the opening. The head frame assembly comprises a first head frame, a second head frame, and a control component. The first head frame is substantially annular in shape, and a plurality of hollow positioning components are mounted around its outer circumferential surface. One end of each bracket, near the opening, passes through the positioning components, fixing the first head frame to the storage space of the bag body and positioning it adjacent to the opening. The second head frame is detachably connected to the first head frame by a control component. The control component is operated to switch between a closed and an open state. When the control component is switched to the closed state, it fixes the second head frame to the first head frame, and when the control component is switched to the open state, it detaches from the first head frame, making the second head frame separable from the first head frame. The telescopic tube is detachably mounted within the storage space of the bag body and is driven to move along a direction toward or away from the bag body. When the second head frame is removed from the bag body, the telescopic tube can be removed through the opening of the bag body. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0006] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, a golf bag with a removable telescopic tube according to one preferred embodiment of the present invention mainly comprises a bag body 10, a head frame assembly 20, and a telescopic tube 30. Details are as follows.

[0007] The bag body 10 has an internal storage space 11 and an opening 12 at the top that communicates with the storage space 11, and the storage space 11 is for storing at least one golf club (not shown). In the bag body 10, a plurality of brackets 13 are provided in the storage space 11, one end of the plurality of brackets 13 is connected to the bottom of the bag body 10, and the other end extends in the direction toward the opening 12. In this embodiment, the plurality of brackets 13 are fiberglass rods.

[0008] The head frame assembly 20 includes a first head frame 21, a second head frame 22, and control components 23. The first head frame 21 is provided with multiple compartments 211 separated by multiple partition plates 210. Multiple hollow positioning components 212 are installed surrounding the outer circumferential surface of the first head frame 21, and the multiple positioning components 212 are drilled at one end of multiple brackets 13 near the opening 12, fixing the first head frame 21 within the storage space 11 of the bag body 10 and adjacent to the opening 12. A screw hole 213 is provided in the center of the first head frame 21.

[0009] The second head frame 22 is detachably mounted above the first head frame 21 and connected to the first head frame 21 by a control component 23. The second head frame 22 has a housing component 220 and a soft rubber component 221, the soft rubber component 221 being extrapolated onto the housing component 220, and the flexibility of the soft rubber component 221 being greater than that of the housing component. In the second head frame, the soft rubber component 221 is provided with a plurality of through-holes 222 of soft rubber corresponding to a plurality of compartments 211 of the first head frame 21, and the golf club passes through the soft rubber holes 222 and compartments 211 to be housed in the storage space 11 of the bag body 10.

[0010] The control component 23 is detachably connected to the first head frame 21 and the second head frame 22 and is operated to switch between a closed and an open state. When the control component 23 is switched to the closed state, it fixes the second head frame 22 to the first head frame 21. When the control component 23 is switched to the open state, it detaches from the first head frame 21, making the second head frame 22 separable from the first head frame 21. The control component 23 has a screw seat 230 and a rotary button 231. The screw seat 230 has a threaded portion 230a, a shaft portion 230b, and a plurality of convex ribs 230c. The threaded portion 230a is detachably screwed into a screw hole 213 of the first head frame 21. The shaft portion 230b extends from one end of the threaded portion 230a and protrudes into the center of the second head frame 22, and the outer diameter of the shaft portion 230b is smaller than the outer diameter of the threaded portion 230a. Multiple convex ribs 230c are arranged to surround the connection point between the threaded portion 230a and the shaft portion 230b. The rotary button 231 is rotatably mounted in the center of the second head frame 22, and one end of it is provided with a hollow tube portion 231a that is fitted onto the shaft portion 230b of the screw seat 230. In addition, one end of the tube portion 231a of the rotary button 231 is provided with multiple recesses 231b corresponding to the multiple convex ribs 230c, and when the rotary button 231 is connected to the screw seat 230, the multiple convex ribs 230c engage with the multiple recesses 231b, enabling the rotary button 231 and the screw seat 230 to rotate synchronously. As a result, when the rotary button 231 is rotated clockwise, the threaded portion 230a of the screw seat 230 is screwed into the screw hole 213, fixing the second head frame 22 to the first head frame 21. When the rotary button 231 is rotated counterclockwise, the threaded portion 230a of the screw seat 230 disengages from the screw hole 213, making the second head frame 22 detachable from the first head frame 21.

[0011] The telescopic tube 30 has an inner frame 31 and a cylindrical body 32. The inner frame 31 has an annular wall 310, a bottom wall 311 and a plurality of hollow rail components 312. One end of the bottom wall 311 is connected to the bottom of the annular wall 310, and the other end extends outward along the direction away from the annular wall 310. The plurality of rail components 312 are hollow tubular members, arranged around the inner periphery of the annular wall 310, corresponding to a plurality of brackets 13, each being passed through by the plurality of brackets 13, and each rail component 312 has a notch 312a on one side that extends along the axial direction of the bracket 13. The inner diameter of the plurality of rail components 312 is greater than the outer diameter of the plurality of positioning components 212. The cylindrical body 32 is detachably provided in the storage space 11 of the bag body 10, its bottom is in contact with the inner frame 31, and it is movable along the direction towards or away from the bag body 10. The bottom of the cylindrical body 32 has an inner recess 320, the inner diameter of which is smaller than the inner diameter of the rest of the cylindrical body. When the cylindrical body 32 is connected to the middle frame 31, the inner wall surface of the inner recess 320 abuts against the annular wall 310 of the middle frame 31, and the bottom surface of the inner recess 320 abuts against the bottom wall 311 of the middle frame 31. The top of the cylindrical body 32 has an openable closure 321. When the closure 321 is opened, the cylindrical body 32 slides down into the bag body 10, exposing the golf clubs.

[0012] As shown in Figure 8, in this embodiment, the head frame assembly 20 further includes a head frame case 24 that is detachably connected to the second head frame 22. The outer periphery of the second head frame 22 is provided with a plurality of engagement grooves 223, and the inner periphery of the head frame case 24 is provided with a plurality of inwardly extending engagement protrusions 240, each corresponding to the plurality of engagement grooves 223. When assembling the second head frame 22 and the head frame case 24, the plurality of engagement protrusions 240 are fitted into the plurality of engagement grooves 223 to engage them. Each of the opposing lower edges on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the head frame case 24 is provided with an extension portion 241 that extends downward in an arc shape.

[0013] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the telescopic cylinder 30 is attached to the bag body 10, the golf bag of the present invention can be telescoped and used in the same manner as a golf bag having a general telescopic cylinder structure.

[0014] Next, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 10, the removal procedure of the telescopic cylinder of the present invention is as follows.

[0015] The user rotates the rotary button 231 of the control component 23 counterclockwise to gradually disengage the screw seat 230 of the control component 23 from the screw hole 213 of the first head frame 21, and further switches the control component 23 to an open state. In this state, the control component 23 and the second head frame 22 can be separated from the first head frame 21 and taken out from the bag body 10.

[0016] After the second head frame 22 is separated from the accommodation space 11 of the bag body 10, the barrel body 32 of the telescopic cylinder 30 is moved upward. When the telescopic cylinder 30 continues to move upward, the plurality of rail components 312 approach a plurality of positioning components 212 arranged around the first head frame 21 and the outer peripheral edge of the first head frame 21. At this time, the inner diameter of the plurality of rail components 312 is larger than the outer diameter of the plurality of positioning components 212, and since the plurality of rail components 312 have a plurality of cutouts 312a, the rail components 312 can pass through the plurality of positioning components 212 through their hollow interiors and the cutouts 312a, so that the telescopic cylinder 30 can pass through the first head frame 21 without being blocked by the first head frame 21, and then the telescopic cylinder 30 can be removed from the bag body 10 along the opening 12.

[0017] Before attaching the second head frame 22 to the bag body 10 again, the user places the head frame case 24 at the bottom of the second head frame 22, aligns it with the second head frame 22, and then overlaps it to extrapolate the head frame case 24 onto the outer peripheral edge of the second head frame 22.

[0018] After assembling the second head frame 22 and the head frame case 24, the second head frame 22 can be attached to the first head frame 21 after aligning it with the first head frame 21. After attachment, rotate the rotary button 231 of the control component 23 clockwise to lock the screw seat 230 of the control component 23 again into the screw hole 213 of the first head frame 21, and further switch the control component 23 to a closed state. In this way, the second head frame 22 and the first head frame 21 are fixed again, and the golf bag becomes a bag without a telescopic function.
