Abstract:
In combination, a tripod leg support of a type having left and right support legs pivotally mounted at upper ends thereof, and leg-operating means for urging said legs in opposite pivotal traverses for opening and closing said legs, and in attached relation a golf bag comprising a body having a circular wall bounding an interior golf club storage compartment, a delineated external surface on said circular wall serving as a rear of said golf bag and a site of attachment of said tripod leg support, a longitudinally oriented rectangular panel with opposite side edges attached to said rear of said golf bag in covering relation over said site of attachment so as to bound beneath said panel and site of attachment a storage compartment, a left and right flap with an edge connected to said golf bag rear surface to position each said flap edge in adjacent facing relation to a cooperating said panel edge so as to bound therebetween left and right openings into said storage compartment, interengaging and disengaging zipper teeth attached to said storage compartment openings-bounding edges, and upper first and lower second pairs of zipper pulls disposed for tracking along said zipper teeth, said operating modes during said tracking of said zipper pulls being opposite to each other so that in response to descending movement said first pair of zipper pulls causes disengaging of said zipper teeth and said second pair of zipper pulls causes interengaging of said zipper teeth, whereby alternate tracking of said zipper pulls correspondingly alternates said opening and closing of said storage compartment in coordinated relation to said opening and closing of said support legs.
