Dual-strap carrying structure

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

0001The present invention relates to a dual-strap carrying structure, and more particularly to a hardened, uneasily deformed ring-shaped structures for carrying a bag or an article on the back easily.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

0002Generally speaking, the golf bags are provided for holding several golf clubs. It is not easy to carry the golf bag by hands so the carrying straps are adopted for carriage. The existing numerous straps are usually designed for carrying the golf bag by one or two shoulders, wherein the shoulder may be hurt when the golf bag is carried by using a single shoulder. As a result, in the general design, the golf bag is mostly supported by both shoulders so as to share out the weight uniformly, thereby preventing the risk of hurt.

0003The conventional structures for carrying the golf bags were disclosed in, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,038,984, 5,042,704, 5,429,288, and 5,593,077, wherein two straps are attached to the golf bags via hooked rings for carrying the golf bags by two shoulders. In these references, heavier weight may be supported by these conventional structures, which have two straps coupled with the golf bags. However, these straps are not hardened structure, causing the inconvenience in use.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

0004Whereas the foregoing description, the present inventor makes diligent studies in providing an improved structure with reasonable design so as to overcome the conventional problems.

0005It is a main object of the present invention to provide a dual-strap carrying structure comprises two hardened, uneasily deformed strap members and is in compliance with human engineering so as to share the weight uniformly.

0006It is another object of the present invention to provide a dual-strap carrying structure that is applicable to a golf bag by using the hooked belts attached to the lower portion of the strap members or to a computer handbag by further using retaining slide rings attached to the lower portion of the strap members. When the dual-strap carrying structure is applied to the computer handbag, the direction of the connection belt can be changed by using the retaining slide ring such that the computer handbag can be carried on the back or on the side.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

0011The above-mentioned features and advantages of this invention, and the manner of attaining them, will become more apparent and the invention will be better understood by reference to the following description of embodiments of the invention taken in conjunction with the drawings.

0012Referring to <figref idref="DRAWINGS">FIG. 1</figref> and <figref idref="DRAWINGS">FIG. 2</figref>, the dual-strap carrying structure <b>1</b> comprises two strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b>, wherein these two strap members are hardened, uneasily deformed ring-shaped structures with a certain width to facilitate the carriage of the golf bag on the back. These two strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b> are coupled to one another by a connection belt <b>13</b> such that one of the strap members can be lifted up by lifting up the other strap member. The connection belt <b>13</b> is made of an elastic material so as to automatically adjust the distance between these two strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b> according to the body shape of the user. Besides, the lower portions of the strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b> are connected to each other by a lower fixing belt <b>14</b>. Hooked belts <b>15</b> are attached under the lower fixing belt <b>14</b> and the strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b> for hooking retaining rings <b>21</b> disposed on the golf bag <b>2</b>.

0013In order to carry the golf bag <b>2</b>, the strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b>, which are connected by the connection belt <b>13</b>, are unfoldable as a butterfly for being inserted through by the user's arms. As a result, it is very convenient to use. The placement of the strap members <b>11</b> and <b>12</b> is in compliance with human engineering so as to reduce the discomfortness in carrying the golf bag <b>2</b> on the back. At the same time, the weight of the golf bag <b>2</b> is shared out between both shoulders. As a result, it is more practical than the conventional single strap carrying structure.

0014Referring further to <figref idref="DRAWINGS">FIG. 3</figref> and <figref idref="DRAWINGS">FIG. 4</figref>, the dual strap carrying structure of the present invention is applicable to the computer handbag and the golf bag as well, as shown in <figref idref="DRAWINGS">FIG. 4</figref>.

0015In addition, another dual strap carrying structure <b>1</b>′ of the present invention comprises two strap members <b>11</b>′ and <b>12</b>′, wherein these two strap members are hardened, uneasily deformed ring-shaped structures with a certain width to facilitate the carriage of the golf bag on the back. These two strap members <b>11</b>′ and <b>12</b>′ are coupled to one another by a connection belt <b>13</b>′ such that one of the strap members can be lifted up by lifting up the other strap member. The connection belt <b>13</b>′ is made of an elastic material such that the distance between these two strap members <b>11</b>′ and <b>12</b>′ is adjustable.

0016Besides, at least a respective retaining slide rings <b>111</b>′ and <b>112</b>′ are mounted under the strap members <b>11</b>′ and <b>12</b>′, wherein lower coupling belts <b>14</b>′ are coupled with the retaining slide rings <b>111</b>′ and <b>112</b>′ so as to support the bag by both shoulders. Compared with the typical backpack structure, the computer handbag is carried by both shoulders according to the present invention. As a result, the dual strap carrying structure of the present invention is more convenient than the conventional backpack no matter it is applied to the computer handbag or the backpack. Furthermore, the retaining slide rings <b>111</b>′ and <b>112</b>′ are mounted under the strap members <b>11</b>′ and <b>12</b>′ to enable the shifting of the lower coupling belts <b>14</b>′ according to the carrying direction of the computer handbag. When the lower coupling belts <b>14</b>′ slide in the retaining slide rings <b>111</b>′ and <b>112</b>′, the computer handbag may be carried on the side or on the back. The articles inside the computer handbag can be taken out easily by merely shift the computer handbag to useable position without the need to take off the dual strap carrying structure.
