Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This application is in the field of items designed for the purpose of transporting articles while traveling where roll packing is a means of preventing undesired wrinkling. In particular, the present invention provides the incorporation within a simple garment bag of a flat device that when rolled becomes a rigid cylinder, upon which the clothes roll and are protected from wrinkles, even within soft luggage such as duffel bags or back packs. The cylinder can be integral to a garment bag, most commonly at the distal portion of the bag, or a free cylinder upon which the clothing is rolled.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]It has long been known that roll packing clothing within luggage prevents the undesirable wrinkling of the clothing, but items such as suits, dress shirts and long dresses are not easily packed in this fashion. Items like these are normally packed in separate soft folding garment bags or the folding garment section of standard rigid luggage...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The Cylindrical Clothes Protector Roll-up Packing System is a special garment bag that can keep clothes free from wrinkles when they need to be transported. It is designed to be placed into soft luggage and can keep items fresh and ready to wear when they are unrolled. Additionally, it can be produced as an integration within a conventional garment bag.

Problems solved by technology

It has long been known that roll packing clothing within luggage prevents the undesirable wrinkling of the clothing, but items such as suits, dress shirts and long dresses are not easily packed in this fashion.

The garment section of standard luggage also causes creasing of clothes and of course necessitates the use of a rigid suitcase.

There is limited bin space for suitcases large enough to have a satisfactory garment section causing stress for the traveler and the inconvenience of a late-checked bag.

As noted, both of these types of luggage have drawbacks particularly with airline travel.

None of these previous efforts, however, provides the benefits attendant with the Cylindrical Clothes Protector Roll-up Packing System.
