Abstract
A golf club carrying case has first and second elongated shells connected along a first longitude edge by one or more hinges. At least one closing mechanism is used to hold the first and second elongated shells together, along a second longitude edge, to form an elongated housing. A number of restraints are used to restrain golf clubs within the elongated housing. The first and second elongated shells are shaped such that one end of the elongated housing is large enough to accommodate the heads of driver clubs and the lengths of the first and second elongated shells are sufficient to accommodate the maximum length of a driver club.
Claims28
A golf club carrying case comprising:
- first and second elongated shells;
- a hinge connecting the first and second elongated shells along a first longitude edge;
- at least one closing mechanism configured to hold the first and second elongated shells together along a second longitude edge to form an elongated housing having a first end and a second end;
- and
- at least one restraint coupled to at least one of the first and second elongated shells and configured to restrain golf clubs within the elongated housing;
- wherein the first and second elongated shells are shaped such that the first end of the elongated housing is large enough to accommodate the heads of a plurality of driver clubs and wherein the lengths of the first and second elongated shells are sufficient to accommodate a maximum length of a driver club.
A golf club carrying case comprising:
- an elongated housing having:
- first and second regions that form first and second elongated shells;
- and
- a third region, located between longitudinal edges of the first and second regions, that forms a hinge, the material in the third region being thinner than the material first and second regions;
- wherein the first and second elongated shells are shaped such that one end of the elongated housing is large enough to accommodate the heads of a plurality of driver clubs and wherein the lengths of the first and second elongated shells are sufficient to accommodate a maximum length of a driver club.
A golf club carrying case comprising:
- a first elongated shell;
- a second elongated shell;
- a hinge connecting the first and second elongated shells along a first longitude edge;
- at least one closing mechanism configured to hold the first and second elongated shells together along a second longitude edge to form an elongated housing having a first end and a second end;
- a latch integrated with the first elongated shell;
- and
- a catch integrated with the second elongated shell and positioned to engage the latch of the first elongated shell,
- wherein the first and second elongated shells are shaped such that one end of the elongated housing is large enough to accommodate the heads of a plurality of driver clubs and wherein the lengths of the first and second elongated shells are sufficient to accommodate a maximum length of a driver club.
