Abstract
A golf vehicle including a golf bag support; wherein the golf vehicle is selected from a golf trolley and a golf cart; wherein the golf bag support includes a lower support member; wherein the lower support member includes one of an upwardly projecting locating member and a downwardly extending recess defined by a recess body portion; and wherein the upwardly projecting locating member or the recess body portion comprises a ferromagnetic material.
Claims2
A combination of a golf vehicle and a golf bag, wherein the golf vehicle includes a golf bag support;
- wherein the golf vehicle is selected from a golf trolley and a golf cart;
- wherein the golf bag support includes a lower support member;
- wherein the lower support member includes an upwardly projecting locating member;
- wherein the upwardly projecting locating member comprises a permanent magnet;
- wherein the upwardly projecting locating member tapers from a lower portion to an upper portion;
- wherein the locating member defines a proximal portion which is adjacent to the lower support member and defines a distal portion which is spaced from the lower support member;
- wherein the distal portion carries therein the permanent magnet;
- wherein the golf bag support further includes a support arm which extends upwardly from the lower support member;
- wherein the golf bag includes a bag base plate;
- the bag base plate defines an upwardly extending recess defined by a recess body portion, the recess receives therein the upwardly projecting locating member, and the recess body portion which defines the upwardly extending recess includes a ferromagnetic element in the form of a ferromagnetic plate;
- wherein the golf bag base plate defines a chamber above the recess, wherein the recess opens into the chamber, and the ferromagnetic plate is disposed within the chamber;
- and wherein the ferromagnetic plate is biased towards the recess along a bias axis, and a first cross-sectional dimension of the recess measured along a first plane normal to the bias axis is smaller than a second cross-sectional dimension of the ferromagnetic plate measured along a second plane that is normal to the bias axis and parallel to the first plane.
