Storage device with an organizing system and a luggage system with such a storage device

Abstract

A storage device with a surface element that is forming an organizer system and that has multiple bag elements and / or reception appliances for receiving bag elements or functional elements arranged at a side of the surface element at a respectively defined position. One bag element is assigned to a content with a certain function, wherein the content of the bag elements represents basic equipment for a user, containing essential items that are to be carried along at all times, and the surface element is embodied so as to be transferrable for optional use in at least one piece of luggage or an item of clothing for definable functions, travel or day sections as a corresponding part of the storage device and can be fixedly attached to the same by means of a retaining appliance.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to a storage device with a surface element that forms an organizer system according to the kind as it is more closely defined in the generic term of claim 1, as well as a luggage system with such a storage device.STATE OF THE ART[0002]In the field of storage devices such as bags or luggage systems, what often occurs in practice is the problem that items inside a compartment or a bag are hard to access, since, in the stored state, they are received so far inside the respective bag element that they are hard to find and / or to pull out by hand.[0003]If multiple items are positioned inside a bag element, it is usually necessary to identify the desired object in a purely haptic manner with the fingers, and to take it out separately of multiple items that are possibly located at the bottom of the bag element. Therefore, the complete interior space of a bag element is often emptied—if that is even possible, and not a larger piece of luggage...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The storage device described in this patent combines the benefits of an organizer system and a modular bag system. It allows users to quickly and easily arrange the necessary items for their daily functions inside small, well-organized compartments within larger bags. The individual bag elements can be attached to other pieces of luggage or clothing, creating a versatility and ease of use. The surface element can also be folded into a separate bag for added convenience. The technical effects of this invention include improved functionality, practicality, and flexibility for users in packing and accessing their essential items.

Problems solved by technology

In the field of storage devices such as bags or luggage systems, what often occurs in practice is the problem that items inside a compartment or a bag are hard to access, since, in the stored state, they are received so far inside the respective bag element that they are hard to find and / or to pull out by hand.

Therefore, the complete interior space of a bag element is often emptied—if that is even possible, and not a larger piece of luggage connected to the bag element has to be turned over, which means that the content of the other piece of luggage respectively comes into disarray.

A disadvantage here is that the basic problem with bags still remains, namely the searching through items that are not organized, or that are contained in separate containers in a difficult-to-distinguish interior space of the bag.

What is additionally disadvantageous here, just like in most bag-in-bag systems, is that the inside bags are arranged at the bottom of an outer bag, taking away room for other things.

Further, this known solution entails the problem that the allocation of essential items, which a user usually wishes to carry with them at all times, to certain bag elements is insufficient, so that, if bags are changed, the user also transfers some things they often do not need.

This problem is for example also present in the organizing devices or the organizer for handbags or other transportable bags disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 8,225,829 B2, since they represent internal bags which can also be used independently as separate bags.

Such repacking is in itself time-consuming, and requires that the person using the bag re-orientates themselves, wherein in practice often a lot of time is needed for searching for certain items inside a bag.

Thus, this known solution also represents a bag-in-bag system, which poses the user before the problem of searching in separate interior bags that are arranged without a haptically memorable system, and wherein the inside bags disadvantageously take up a considerable amount of space at the bottom of the tote bag.
