Abstract

A modular container system may enable a user to create a set of interconnected containers to organize and pack small items. The modular container system may be assembled in various ways to hold one or more items in separate compartments of varying size. The modular container system may have the same diameter as a typical sports water bottle, making the container system easy to pack and readily accessible to the user. The modular container system may be useful in various situations where a person needs to organize and store items. Applications may include outdoor sports and recreation, military, automotive, arts and crafts, construction tools and materials, food storage, toy storage, and the like.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 151,237, filed Feb. 10, 2009.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention generally relates to containers, and more specifically to modular containers and modular container systems.[0003]In many activities, including outdoor sports and recreation, it is difficult to organize, pack and make accessible small items. For certain activities, water resistant storage may be desired. Often, users store items in plastic storage bags or tins stowed in various compartments in a portable carry device, such as a backpack. Plastic bags may be crushed or punctured, spilling their contents and losing water resistance.[0004]As can be seen, there is a need for a container system that may organize, store and make accessible items stored therein.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]In one aspect of the present invention, a container comprises at least one open ended container, each...
