AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent describes a portable container designed to carry and sanitary store wet wipes, formula, and other similar products for infants and children. The container is designed to be a handbag or satchel with two hollow interior compartments connected by a third opening. A closeable element can be used to close the openings. The container is comfortable to carry and convenient for use when on-the-go. The technical effects of this invention include a convenient and sanitary solution for carrying and storing personal accessories and care products for infants and children.

Problems solved by technology

However, these portable containers are generally unappealing, unattractive, and unsuitable for use in more professional environments.

Further, conventional handbags are not well-suited for quick access to needed products.

However, this means that when the user needs a wet wipe, the user must first locate the portable container within the handbag, remove the portable container, and then remove a wet wipe from the portable container for use.

This can make it difficult and frustrating to locate the container of wet wipes.

However, when there is a mess to clean up with a wet wipe, particularly when the mess concerns a young child, the situation is often tense, and time is of the essence.

The time spent in searching a purse for wipes, and lost in retrieving and opening the wipe container and retrieving a wipe from it, may result in what was originally a small mess becoming much larger one in short order.

As any parent knows, when the nature of the mess concerns the sanitary condition of a small child, every second counts, and minor accidents can quickly turn into stressful and anxiety-inducing disasters.

This in turn often results in the parent forgetting to reseal the wipe container, or not fully or properly resealing it while in a rush.

Thus, when the parent next requires wipes, the parent will be alarmed to discovery that the container has dried out.
