Abstract: Disclosed is a golf ball holder comprising a generally cylindrical wall element forming a tubular member. There is an elongated aperture running along the entire length of the tubular member between opposed open ends in the tubular member. The tubular member is of a uniform diameter with the opposed open ends having a diameter slightly less than the diameter of the golf balls. The tubular member is made of a resilient material to enable the wall element to expand outwardly when a golf ball is inserted into either of the open ends. The aperture is sufficiently wide to allow the finger of the user to be inserted into it to force a golf ball out of either end but not so wide as to allow a golf ball to be inserted into the tubular member through the aperture. There is a stop member at one of the open ends which prevents a ball from passing through this end unless the user applies pressure to the golf ball and forces it past the stop member.

Abstract: A golf bag adapted to function as a shoulder carrier for a set of golf clubs or as a locked travel case therefor suitable for air transport. The bag, which is molded of rigid plastic material, has a generally cylindrical form closed at either end, the bag being composed of a semi-cylindrical chest section and a semi-cylindrical lid section hinged thereto. The lid section is divided into a major lid which extends from the bottom end of the bag to an upper level below the top end, and a minor lid which extends from the upper level to the top end whereby when the minor lid is swung open, the heads of the golf clubs whose long handles rest on the bottom of the bag are then accessible for removal. The major and minor lids are provided with raised edge borders which, when the lids are closed, overlie corresponding edges of the chest section. The longitudinal course on the borders of the lids have releasable clamps mounted thereon adapted to engage complementary anchor hooks on the chest section.

Each tube is dimensioned to receive a plurality of golf balls therein and each tube has a longitudinally extending slot extending along one side and between its ends. A stop member protrudes into the interior of each tube adjacent each end which abuts against the golf ball positioned within the interior of the tube to hold the golf balls within the tube. Each tube, however, has a flexible side wall portion adjacent each end which flexes outwardly to enable a golf ball to pass over the stop member and out of the tube. The golf accessory also includes a plurality of openings which are designed to slidably receive and frictionally engage golf tees, golf ball markers and golf green repair tools.

Abstract: A golf scorecard holder is formed of rigid transparent plastic and is of generally rectangular-shaped configuration. One longitudinal edge portion of the golf scorecard holder is shaped to define a curved clamping element and a recess which is shaped in dimension to frictionally engage a pencil for use by a golfer. The other longitudinal edge portion of the holder is shaped to define a retaining lip. A clamping ring may be attached to either end of a holder and is attachable to a golf bag. A transparent envelope is clamped against the clamping surface of the holder by the clamping element to retain the transparent envelope against the clamping surface. The scorecard is positioned between the panels of the envelope for ready examination by a user. The envelope and scorecard may be readily removed from the holder by a user for entry of the golfer's score.

Abstract: A solar cell array is disclosed having a support structure, cover, and mechanically joined solar cell panels.

Abstract: A tubular golf ball carrier of rigid plastic shaped like a sight gauge and normally carried in an upright manner retains golf balls within tubular carrier with sight opening. Reducing couplings are attached to the ends of the tubular section with sight opening. The bottom coupling has an aperture too small to pass a British golf ball. The top coupling has an aperture large enough to pass a U.S.G.A. golf ball. The top coupling retains a thin flexible annular ring between its inside upper wall and the upper rim of the tubular section. The flexible annular ring flexes to permit ball entry and withdrawal when a golf ball is pushed against it, but when relaxed it prevents a golf ball from rolling out of the carrier. The flexible annular ring is sized for either U.S.G.A. or British golf balls and is removable for use of the annular ring corresponding to the golf balls being played. The tubular carrier is attached to a golf club bag through holes with a rivet and/or other attaching means.

Abstract: This invention concerns a portable golf cart. It includes two wheels which support an axle upon which is mounted a main horizontal frame. An elongated bag support frame for holding the golf clubs is connected to the frame by a pivot connection so that the bag support frame can rotate from one position where it is essentially perpendicular to the horizontal frame to a second position where it is in alignment with such horizontal frame. The bag support frame can be locked in either position. The bag support frame itself is made of at least two sections that are pivoted with respect to each other so that they can be in an extended position or one section can be folded over the other so as to form a compact golf cart when the bag support frame is in its folded position and is rotated into alignment with the axle.

Abstract: An umbrella holder for a golf cart is adapted to hold a handle of an umbrella when the umbrella is open and to hold a collapsed canopy portion of the umbrella when the umbrella is closed.

Abstract: A golf club protective device for use with golf bags or other devices for holding golf clubs preferably comprises a small umbrella which normally is supported in a lowered position above the club heads in the golf bag so as to protect the heads and the open end of the bag. The umbrella head is configured such that in this lowered position it preferably surrounds the club heads and the upper end of the bag so as to protect against blowing rain as well as vertical rain. The umbrella head is supported by a shaft which may be guided by a conventional club tube carried in or by the bag, the shaft being sufficiently long to permit a golfer to lift the umbrella high enough to permit removal of a club without the shaft moving out of the tube, such that the shaft does not have to leave its guide. The shaft can be a telescoping shaft of adjustable length. The umbrella head, when collapsed, preferably fits inside the tube for storage.
