Golf bag clamping apparatus

摘要

A golf bag clamp apparatus comprises an elongated body having front and back side members configured to conform to specific features of a surface of a golf bag. The clamp apparatus is an accessory that is added to golf bags to allow any golf bag to be safely and securely transported on any golf cart configuration. The clamp apparatus is molded so that the elongated body forms a member bent at an upper portion, with one or more curvatures in the elongated body to adhere to contours of a golf bag so that no damage occurs when the golf bag is secured to a golf cart. Angled portions of the front side have recessed cavities within which a strap assembly is coupled to the clamp apparatus to enable coupling of a golf bag to one or more fixed members of a golf cart. The strap assembly may also be adhered to one of the side members to enable coupling of a golf bag to the one or more fixed members of the golf cart.

主权项

1. A clip assembly for a golf bag, comprising:
a member molded to form a back side and an opposing front side that is slightly elongated relative to the back side, with a closed end formed at upper portions of the front and back sides, and an open end formed at lower portions of the front and back sides, the member having angular sections on each of the front and back sides that include a top angled portion and a bottom angled portion along the front side, and a back angled portion along at least a section of the back side, the front and back sides each being tapered at the open end and having a tension formed between them to accommodate insertion, secure placement, and removal of the member relative to a golf bag; and recessed cavities positioned within thicker portions in the top and bottom angled portions on the front side having a thickness greater than the upper portion and the lower portion of the back side, so that a first recessed cavity is formed within a top angled portion of the front side, and a second recessed cavity is formed within a bottom angled portion of the front side, each of the top and bottom angled portions also having 1) an outer portion partially enclosing each recessed cavity, 2) a plurality of teeth extending out angularly near an end of each outer portion and towards each thicker portion that engage with at least one strap of a strap assembly to prevent at least one strap member from disengaging from the clip assembly when the golf bag is coupled to a golf cart, 3) an inner aperture within each thicker portion within which the at least one strap member is positioned, and 4) an open side within which a securing portion of the strap assembly is insertable and lockable therein.
