Abstract
The Carbon Club Carrier is a lightweight, motorized golf pushcart designed to enhance convenience and ease of use for golfers. Traditional golf push carts can be cumbersome and require significant effort to maneuver across varying terrain. Our design integrates a carbon fiber frame for durability and weight reduction, coupled with an electric push-assist motor to reduce strain on the user. The use of carbon fiber composite materials ensures a strong yet lightweight structure, optimizing portability and performance. The push-assist motor system is designed to provide variable-speed assistance, allowing golfers to move their clubs effortlessly across the course. The carrier is also equipped with ergonomic features for enhanced user comfort and ease of control. This innovation aims to improve the golfing experience by combining advanced materials with practical mobility solutions.
