Collapsible golf cart

A golf bag push cart which is movable from a extended configuration to a collapsed configuration, comprising:

• a frame;
• first and second rear wheels;
• first and second wheel struts, to which said first and second rear wheels are rotatably mounted, the first and second wheel struts being pivotally mounted to said frame by mid-frame pivots;
• a front wheel and a front wheel mount to which said front wheel is rotatably mounted, said front wheel mount being pivotally attached to said frame by a lower frame pivot, such that said front wheel pivots underneath said frame when moving to the collapsed position;
• a lower bag support mounted on said frame to support the lower end of a golf bag during usage;
• a handle which is pivotally attached to said frame at an upper frame pivot, so that said handle pivots about said upper frame pivot from an extended position to a collapsed position;
• and
• at least one link rod which is at least semi-rigid, connecting a portion of said handle to a portion of at least one of said wheel struts so that when said handle pivots about said upper frame pivot, said link rod is pushed, and said at least one wheel strut is urged to pivot such that said rear wheels pivot about said mid-frame pivots to move towards each other and also move towards said front wheel, and said front wheel and said wheel mount pivot about said lower frame pivot so that said front wheel moves towards said rear wheels when said golf bag cart is being collapsed.

A golf bag push cart comprising:

• a frame having a lower end;
• a handle which is pivotally attached to said frame at an upper frame pivot at an upper end of said frame, so that said handle pivots about said upper frame pivot from an extended position to a collapsed position;
• a front wheel;
• first and second rear wheels;
• first and second wheel struts, to which said first and second rear wheels are rotatably mounted, the first and second wheel struts being pivotally mounted to said frame;
• linking means connecting a portion of said handle to a portion of each of said wheel struts, said wheel struts being thus coupled together such that said rear wheels move in unison in response to pivotal motion by said handle when said golf bag cart is moved from a extended configuration to a collapsed configuration;
• a lower bag support mounted on said frame to support the lower end of a golf bag during usage;
• and
• a front wheel mount to which said front wheel is rotatably mounted, said front wheel mount being pivotally attached to said frame by a lower frame pivot, and said front wheel and said wheel mount pivot about said lower frame pivot so that said front wheel moves from a position forward of said lower end of said frame towards said rear wheels when said golf bag push cart is being collapsed.
