Abstract
A rake storage system to store a rake adjacent a sand trap of a golf course, and to selectively elevate the rake for use, includes an elongated container to be disposed underground adjacent the sand trap in a substantially vertical orientation. A rake is removably disposed within the elongated container. A mechanical lifting mechanism is disposed in the elongated container to elevate the rake. A releasable retaining mechanism is disposed in the container to retain the rake in the container, and includes a lip formed in the container, and a protrusion disposed on the rake near the distal end adjacent the rake head. The protrusion is engagable with the lip to retain the rake in the container when the rake is disposed in the container. A flange can be formed about the inside of the container. A collar can be disposed around the rake near a distal end adjacent a rake head to engage the flange when the rake is received within the container to substantially close the container below the flange and the collar.
