Abstract
A system for a bicycle or other vehicle to carry a golf bag, such as to, from, and on a golf course, in which the system can facilitate its use and transportation of the golf bag, such as by providing adjustability (e.g., to adjust how the golf bag is positioned), stability (e.g., to properly distribute weight and/or adapt to irregularity, softness, and/or other conditions of a ground surface), and/or other benefits.
Claims30
A golf-bag carrier for a bicycle to carry a golf bag, the bicycle comprising a front wheel, a rear wheel, a frame, and a seat, the front wheel and the rear wheel being configured to roll on a ground surface, the golf-bag carrier comprising:
- a base configured to be connected to the bicycle;
- and
- a holder connected to the base and configured to hold the golf bag such that the golf bag is supported on the ground surface only by the front wheel and the rear wheel while the bicycle travels on the ground surface;
- wherein:
- the holder is adjustable relative to the base for adjusting a linear position of the golf bag relative to the bicycle in a longitudinal direction of the bicycle and for adjusting an inclination of the golf bag relative to the bicycle;
- the golf-bag carrier comprises an adjustment system that comprises a first adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a linear position of at least part of the holder relative to the bicycle in the longitudinal direction of the bicycle, and a second adjustment mechanism configured to adjust an inclination of at least part of the holder relative to the bicycle.
