Abstract

Abstract A club container is removably mounted on a cart and has a bottom notch receiving a crossrod of the cart and an upper, releasable latch. The club container has a pleated, flexible plastic irons separator and has long tubular sockets receiving shafts of the woods. The cart has a frame of two U-shaped tubes secured together by rivets which also pivot a U-shaped wheel suspension tube carrying pivot pins on which are pvioted circle-carrying arms biased by torsion spring rods secured to the tube. To form a folding linkage, a pair of rods having bent-over lower end portions trapped in the wheel suspension tube are held together with bent-over, upper end portions trapped in a block secured to a handle. Two pairs of legs pivotally secured to a seat and having ends hooked into the frame of the cart mount the seat, along with a pair of braces hooked into the frame and slidable along one of the pairs of rods, for overcenter movement between a seating position and a folded position.
