Modular Golf Bag with Removable Buckles for Easy Disassembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional golf bags are difficult for unprofessional users to disassemble and assemble due to complex assembly processes, which can lead to damage and resource waste, especially when parts are damaged, making repair or recycling challenging.
Innovation Solution
A golf bag design featuring a head frame, bag body portion, and bottom frame that can be easily assembled and disassembled using clear buckles and a supporting stick, allowing for independent repair or replacement of damaged parts, and incorporating a folding wall for use as a stand.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional golf bags use concealed buttons or locking screws for assembly, then the structure is more secure, but the assembly process becomes complicated and difficult for unprofessional users to disassemble and assemble
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical fastening methods (screws, concealed buttons) with a buckle-based system. The buckles feature clear visual indicators and simple insertion/removal actions, transforming the complex mechanical assembly process into an intuitive operation that users can easily perform without specialized tools or skills.
Solution Approach 2:
The buckle design enables users to independently assemble and disassemble the golf bag without requiring professional service. The clear visual cues and simple mechanism allow end-users to perform maintenance, repairs, and reconfiguration tasks themselves, eliminating the need to return the product to the factory for minor issues.
2Stability of the object's composition
If traditional golf bags use multiple combination processes and complicated assembly, then the structure is more stable, but the assembly and disassembly process becomes time-consuming and complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the golf bag into modular components (head frame, bottom frame, bag body) that can be independently assembled and disassembled using buckles. This segmentation allows each component to be quickly attached or detached without affecting the entire structure, reducing assembly time while maintaining stability through proper modular design.
Solution Approach 2:
The buckle mechanism provides dynamic adjustability, allowing users to quickly assemble or disassemble components as needed. The system transitions from a fixed, permanent assembly to a flexible, reconfigurable structure that can be adapted based on user needs, reducing the time investment for assembly while maintaining structural integrity during use.
3Strength
If traditional golf bags use rivets to combine the bottom frame with the bag body, then the connection is strong, but the bag cannot be easily disassembled for repair or recycling
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces permanent rivet connections with removable buckle fasteners. This substitution maintains the necessary connection strength during normal use while enabling easy disassembly for repair, maintenance, or recycling. The buckle mechanism provides sufficient holding force without the permanence of rivets, allowing users to separate components when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The removable buckle system facilitates the recovery and reuse of individual components. When one part of the golf bag becomes damaged or obsolete, users can easily detach and replace only the affected component rather than discarding the entire bag, promoting resource efficiency and sustainability through selective component replacement.
4Stability of the object's composition
If traditional golf bags have the combination device embedded in the bag body, then the structure is more integrated, but the disassembly process becomes difficult for unprofessional users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces embedded combination devices with externally accessible buckle mechanisms. The buckles are positioned and designed to be easily located and operated by users, providing clear visual indicators and simple insertion/removal actions. This externalizes the fastening mechanism from the bag body structure, making disassembly intuitive and accessible to non-professional users while maintaining structural integration during normal use.

AI summary
A golf bag able to be disassembled and assembled freely comprises a head frame, a bag body portion, a supporting stick and a bottom frame, or a folding wall arranged on the bottom frame, a plurality of buckles are attached to the head frame and the bottom frame; when the golf bag is disassembled, just press a hook of an outer wall of the bottom frame, snap a buckle pin, take out a supporting stick, press a hook of an upper end and lower end of the bag body portion, and separate the head frame, the bag body portion and the bottom frame, such that the disassembly of the whole golf bag is completed.
