  • Patent number: 5419478
    Abstract: A cooler for beverages and food is mounted on the steering column of a golf cart so that it is easily accessible but does not occupy passenger compartment space. A channel is formed in the front and bottom walls of the cooler to accommodate the steering column. A mounting bracket assembly secured to the steering column includes a pivotally mounted platform that cooperates with the steering column to support the cooler in a horizontal plane. A hook and loop fastener is secured to the platform and to the bottom wall of the cooler so that the cooler may be removed from the cart without disassembly of the mounting bracket assembly.
