Abstract

A compartment system with flexible volumes of space for use within a bag. The compartment system includes a primary compartment and a secondary compartment defined by the inner lining of the bag. The primary compartment is disposed adjacent the secondary compartment such that the sum of the volume of the primary compartment and the secondary compartment remains constant. The total volume of the primary and secondary compartment is approximately the volume of the bag. Increasing the volume of the secondary compartment space simultaneously decreases the volume of the primary compartment space such that the bag maintains a consistent exterior appearance. Access to the secondary compartment is via a compartment access flap disposed on one of the sides of the bag. The secondary compartment can be any size, shape or orientation. More than one secondary compartment can be used.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates in general to compartmentalized bags, in particular to handbags.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The use of compartmentalized carrying devices such as luggage, sports bags, hand bags, and beach bags are known in the art. Compartmentalized bags allow for items to be carried simultaneously, yet separately, without the need to use more than one bag. Compartmentalized bags allow for increased organization. Numerous compartmentalized bags known in the art comprise of compartments exterior to a main central compartment which affect the overall appearance of the bag depending on how much is placed in the compartments. Other compartmentalized bags contain compartments within the main central compartment which are separated by a lining to delineate the compartmentalized space. Such compartmentalization, however, often does not effectively use the compartmentalized space when the space is not being used.[0003]Compartmentalized bags can be use...
