Abstract

The invention relates to a golf bag for receiving golf clubs, comprising a tubular housing part and a storage space for golf clubs forming an inner rotating device which is rotatably arranged inside the tubular housing about the longitudinal axis thereof, wherein an outer rotating device is also provided as a storage space for other golf clubs and/or golf utensils, such that the inner rotating device is arranged inside the annular outer rotating device. The outer rotating device, which is arranged inside the tubular housing part and which can be rotated relative thereto about a common longitudinal axis, and the tubular housing part are respectively provided with a longitudinal opening which extends along the length thereof, enabling golf clubs to be removed laterally from the rotating device or to be inserted into said rotating device(s).

Claims

1 - 17 . (canceled) 
   
   
       18 . Golf bag for accommodating golf clubs ( 22 ,  23 ), having
 a) a tube-shaped housing part ( 100 ),   b) in which a rotating stand is disposed, so as to rotate about the longitudinal axis ( 24 ) of the part, which stand forms an inner rotating device, which serves as a magazine for such golf clubs, for example irons ( 22 ), and   c) having another rotating stand, which forms an outer rotating device ( 120 ), serving as a magazine for additional golf clubs, for example woods ( 23 ), which is disposed in the tube-shaped housing part ( 100 ) so as to rotate relative to the latter, whereby   d) the magazines ( 110 ) and/or ( 120 ) that can rotate about the central longitudinal axis ( 24 ) and are disposed coaxial to one another, for the irons ( 22 ) and the woods ( 23 ), respectively, can be rotated individually or together, as needed—for example by hand—about the central axis of rotation ( 24 ), into defined positions, in which positions the selected iron ( 22 ) or wood ( 23 ) that is needed can be laterally removed, in the region of a longitudinal opening ( 2 / 2 ) of the tube-shaped housing part ( 100 ) intended both for removal of the woods ( 23 ) and for removal of the irons ( 22 ), or can be put back into the magazine in question, whereby furthermore   e) the club ( 22 ), in each instance, can be removed from the inner magazine ( 110 ) by way of a recess of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) for removal, which gets into an arrangement with the longitudinal opening ( 2 / 2 ) of the tube-shaped housing part ( 100 ) in which they have equal coverage, and whereby   f) in order to remove a club from the outer magazine ( 120 ), this magazine can be rotated into a position, independent of the position of the inner rotating device ( 110 ), in which a removal slot ( 31 ) of the outer magazine ( 120 ), open at the edge, stands in communicating connection with the longitudinal opening ( 2 / 2 ) of the tube-shaped housing part ( 100 ).   
   
   
       19 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein at least one cover ( 18 ) is present in the case of the outer rotating device ( 120 ), which is azimuthally wider than the longitudinal opening ( 2 / 2 ) of the housing part ( 100 ), so that the interior of the golf bag ( 1 ) can be closed off by means of a relative rotation between the housing mantle ( 100 ) and the outer rotating device ( 120 ). 
   
   
       20 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the inner rotating device ( 110 ) is designed for accommodating irons ( 22 ). 
   
   
       21 . Golf bag according to  18 , wherein the outer rotating device ( 120 ) is designed for accommodating putters and/or woods and/or golf utensils. 
   
   
       22 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the inner rotating device ( 110 ) is mounted to rotate on a bolt ( 2 ) in the housing part ( 100 ), whereby the bolt ( 2 ) engages into an accommodation opening ( 4 ) at the bottom of the inner rotating device ( 110 ). 
   
   
       23 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein an upper end ( 8 ) of the inner rotating device ( 110 ) projects out of the housing part ( 100 ) and the outer rotating device ( 120 ), upwards, and has an activation device ( 8 ;  29 ) for turning the inner rotating device ( 110 ). 
   
   
       24 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the inner rotating device ( 110 ) has a rod or a pipe ( 6 ), about which the golf clubs ( 22 ,  23 ) can be grouped, whereby a scale ( 19 ) with club numbers is disposed in the upper region. 
   
   
       25 . Golf bag according to  claim 24 , wherein the rod or the pipe ( 6 ) is provided with a bottom pot ( 3 ), which has an accommodation bed ( 3 / 1 ) for accommodating club heads of the golf clubs. 
   
   
       26 . Golf bag according to  claim 25 , wherein the pot ( 3 ) is guided in a bottom region ( 2 ,  34 ) of the housing part ( 100 ). 
   
   
       27 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the housing part ( 100 ) is configured as a sleeve, the upper end of which is open for insertion of the outer rotating device ( 120 ), whereby an upper end of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) projects beyond the lower housing part ( 100 ), upwards. 
   
   
       28 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the outer rotating device ( 120 ) is essentially open in its region that is accommodated in the housing part ( 100 ), with the exception of the cover, and has at least two, preferably four, struts ( 10 ;  41 ) distributed equidistantly in the circumference direction, and narrow in the circumference direction. 
   
   
       29 . Golf bag according to  claim 28 , wherein the struts ( 10 ) extend over a radial partial region of the outer rotating device ( 120 ), and divide the outer rotating device ( 120 ) into at least two, preferably four sector-shaped divisions (A, B, C, D). 
   
   
       30 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein the outer rotating device ( 120 ) has a bottom ( 11 ) at its lower end, which has a recess (A) for removing or introducing clubs into the inner rotating device ( 110 ). 
   
   
       31 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein an upper region of the outer rotating device ( 120 ), which projects out of the housing part ( 100 ), is essentially closed on the circumference, and has at least one slot that runs longitudinally, for removing clubs. 
   
   
       32 . Golf bag according to  claim 30 , wherein the recess (A) in the bottom of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) and the at least one slot in the upper region of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) are disposed in the same position, in terms of azimuth. 
   
   
       33 . Golf bag according to  claim 30 , wherein the upper region of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) and/or the cover ( 18 ) of the outer rotating device ( 120 ) is transparent. 
   
   
       34 . Golf bag according to  claim 18 , wherein it can be broken down into the housing part ( 100 ) the inner rotating device ( 110 ), and the outer rotating device ( 120 ).
