Description

TITLE: TWIN-BAR GOLF CART
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
I . Field of the Invention The present invention is related to a twin-bar golf cart, and especially to such golf cart which can be folded for storage, it does not occupy an overly large storage space, and is suitable to be used as a golf cart or the like.
2. Description of the Prior Ark The golf sport needs a very large ground, a golf kit is quite heavy; players hire caddies in formal international games, while in personal playing to strike golf balls in a golf course, a player himself mostly uses a hand-pull golf cart loaded with a golf kit.
The golf carts often used presently are mainly the golf carts each with a stem with a single bar; each of them structurally includes a stretchable main stem with a larger width, the stem is provided on the top thereof' with a handle and on the 1 ~ bottom thereof' with a lower stand; two wheels aa~e provided laterally at the two sides of the lower stand. The stem thereby can be used to carry a golf bag. Such a golf cart with a stem of a single bar is structurally less firm; and after the golf bag is placed on the golf cart, a user feels inconvenient when he tows the golf cart by walking. And after a golf game, such a golf cart with a stem of a single bar still has a large volume when it is collapsed, and is quite inconvenient and space occupying in carrying and storage, hence this is the primary defect of such a golf cart with a stem of a single bar.
In view that the conventional golf cart needs improvement against the defect thereof, the inventor of the present invention got a motive to provide after hard study and designing a twin-bar golf cart of quite a small volume, small weight and being convenient for carrying and storage.

SUMMARY OF THE INVEN~fION
The main object of the present invention is to provide a twin-bar golf cart convenient for collapsing and of quite a small volume after collapsing.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a twin-bar golf cart convenient for carrying and storage and occupying no overly large space.
To get the above stated objects, the twin-bar golf cart of the present invention includes an upper frame, a lower frame, two struts for wheels and a folding seat;
wherein the upper frame includes two mutual parallel bar combinations each with two telescopically connected bars, the bar combinations are connected each on one end thereof with a transverse bar and are connected pivotally each on the other end thereof at the open end of the upper frame with the folding seat. The bottom of the folding seat is combined with the Lower frame, and is connected on the rear side thereof with the two struts. With these members, a golf cart capable of receiving a golf bag is composed; when not in use, and the golf cart is separated from the golf bag, the golf cart can be folded to collapse in order to reduce the space occupied.
The present invention will be apparent in its features after reading the detailed description of the preferred embodiment thereof in reference to the accompanying drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF T'HI? DRAWINGS
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a schematic perspective view of the embodiment of the present invention, wherein, a golf bag is used thereon;
Figs. 3-6 are schematic views showing collapsing of the embodiment of the present invention;
Fig. 7 is an enlarged schematic view of a part of the embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Fig. 1, the twin-bar golf cart of the present invention is comprised of an upper frame 1. a lower frame 2, two struts 3 for wheels and a folding seat 15;
wherein the upper frame 1 includes two mutual parallel bar combinations each with a couple of telescopically connected bars each including a main bar 10 and a subordinate bar 1 I . A positioning pressing bar 12 is provided at each of the tops of the main bars 10 where the main bars 10 meet the subordinate bars 11. .A
transverse bar 14 is connected to the tops of the subordinate bars 11 to Form an inversed "I1"
shaped frame which is telescopically connected for stretching and retracting.
A golf bag 5 connecting an upper fixing mount 13 is suitably provided beneath the positioning pressing bars 12; the upper fixing mount 13 has an arched surface, and is provided on the two lateral edges thereof each with a slot 131 arranged in the longitudinal direction of the cart.
The lower frame 2 includes two bars 20, one end of each bar 20 is connected to a folding-limiting member 21, the folding-limiting member 21 is further pivotally connected to a bearing rack 22 for bearing the golf bag 5.
The two struts 3 for wheels each has an end movably and pivotally connected to a wheel 30, and is pivotally connected on the upper portion thereof to an auxiliary rod 31.
The width of the folding seat 1 S is given in corresponding with that of the upper frame l, it is provided at two ends on the rear side thereof with two protuberances 152 respectively movably connected with the ends of the main bars 10. The folding seat 15 is provided centrally on the upper end thereof with a pressing key 151 to control two contractible engaging blocks far hooking two folding blocks 153 on this upper end. The folding blocks 153 are provided in corresponding to the contractible engaging blocks with two inverse hooks 154;
the folding blocks 153 are further connected respectively with the main bars 10, and are provided centrally on the rear sides thereof each with a protruding block I55, and are connected on the lower ends thereof with the lower frame 2, and this rear sides are connected with the two struts 3 for wheels; the other ends of the auxiliary rods 31 are connected with the protruding blocks 155 of the folding blocks 1 S3.
With the above stated members composing the present invention, the bearing rack 22 for bearing the golf bag 5 is folded down to make it able to receive the golf bag 5, and as shown in Fig. 2, two binding straps 4 attached to the golf bag 5 are wound around the golf bag 5, the upper binding strap 4 is extended through the slots 131 provided on the two lateral edges of the upper fixing mount 13 to tightly bind up the golf bag 5. And the lower binding strap 4 is wound around the lower frame 2 and the golf bag S for tightly binding up, in this way, the golf bag 5 is tightly bound up on the upper and the lower frames 1, 2. 'Then by holding and pulling of the transverse bar 14, the golf cart can be towed at ones will without carrying the golf bag 5 on the back of the user.
After a golf game, when the golf cart is not in use, the two binding straps 4 are released to separate the golf bag 5 from the golf cart, the positioning pressing bar 12 is moved to open, the subordinate bars I 1 are slipped into the main bars 10, and the positioning pressing bars 12 are closed to make positioning of the positioning pressing bars 12 in the main bars 10 (as shown in Fig. 3). Referring simultaneously to Figs. 4 and 7, the pressing key 15 I of the folding seat 15 is pressed down, the two inverse hooks 154 on the ends of the folding blocks 153 are released from engagement, the two protuberances 152 respectively movably connected with the ends of the main bars 10 are taken each as a center of a circle to allow the main bars 10 to bend down for 180 degrees, and by linking of the two struts 3 for wheels with the auxiliary rods 31, the wheels 30 are collapsed to abut against the main bars 10;
and lastly, the bearing rack 22 provided on the folding-limiting members 21 for bearing the golf bag 5 is folded upwardly (referring to Fig. 5) to abut on the two bars 20; in this mode, the golf cant is folded to make the minimum volume (as shown in Fig. 6) to be more convenient for carrying and storage.
The structure of the present invention thereby has the following practical advantages:
1. The present invention has an effective arrangement in space occupying, so that when in use of the golf cart, it is firm and convenient for towing.
2. The golf cart of and the present invention can be collapsed in three sections, when it is not in use, it can he folded to make the minimum volume, thus is convenient for carrying or storage and does not occupy too much space.
The above stated are only for illustrating a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and not for giving any limitation to the scope of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in this art that various modifications or changes can be made to the elements of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention, all such modifications and changes shall fall within the scope of the appended claims.
Accordingly, the present invention surely can get the expected object thereof to provide a twin-bar golf cart; having thus described my invention with industrial value.
