Abstract
A golf bag cart providing wheeled support for a golf bag and that is collapsible to a relatively flat storage condition. The cart includes an elongated frame member having a pair of wheel supporting legs pivoted thereto. A bracket member joins the legs to the frame member to enable folding of the legs from spread, operative positions wherein the legs project outward of the frame, and compact storage positions wherein the legs are folded close to the frame with the wheels thereon situated adjacent a handle end of the frame. A removable tensioner releasably secures the legs in the operative and inoperative storage positions.

A collapsible golf bag cart, comprising:
- an elongated frame member extending from a foot end to a handle end;
- means for mounting a golf bag to the frame member;
- a pair of elongated legs, each having an inward end and an outward end;
- a pair of wheels mounted to the outward leg ends for free rotation about wheel axes;
- means on the frame member for pivotally mounting the inner ends of the legs for movement between operative positions wherein the legs diverge from one another and project outwardly from the frame member to form an acute angle with part of the frame member and inoperative positions wherein the legs are adjacent to both one another and to the frame and the wheels are adjacent to one another and to the handle end of the frame member;
- an elongated extensible strap means releasably connectable to the frame member and legs for yieldably urging the legs outwardly from the frame member toward the operative positions and for alternatively holding the legs together against the frame member when in the inoperative positions;
- and
- stop means operably interposed between the legs and frame member for preventing pivotal movement of the legs outwardly from the frame member beyond their respective operative positions.
