Travel storage systems

Abstract

A re-usable, portable, storage travel system for storing flowable substance products such as lotions, shampoos, creams, liquid medicines, and the like for transport, particularly when traveling and, specifically designed for assisting traveler conformance to travel security recommendations for carrying such flowable substance products. The system provides methods and means for transferring flowable materials from larger containers to smaller containers, particularly small-volume, flexible, sealable, plastic squeezable-tubes. This system also provides a re-usable, portable, storage travel system for storing a flowable food-grade substance such as, for example, liquor.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0018] It is a further object and feature of the present invention to provide such a system that provides transparent viewing of the flowable substance when passing through security checkpoints.

Problems solved by technology

Such stored items are normally sold in bulk containers that are not approved by the Authorities having Jurisdiction for security and, therefore, do not provide a container for convenient transport and use.

For airport and international travel, small, re-usable, self-standing, transparent containers and small, re-usable, counter-terrorism friendly, transparent flexible tubes, are not currently made for distribution to the public, nor are means for transferring such flowable substances from a bulk container to a regulation approved storage container.

Heretofore such small, re-usable, self-standing, flexible bag-like containers and small, re-usable, flexible tubes have not been available in a kit for consumer use.

Even further, an adapter for transferring such flowable substances into the top openings of flexible tubes has not been available.
