Description

Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a handbag that is innovatively combined with a seat cushion. This combination is particularly suitable for people who rely on the use of a seat cushion due to health restrictions (e.g., osteoarthritis, hemorrhoids, or painful changes in the ischial tuberosities). State of the art

[0002] Handbags are available in countless designs and variations. Seat cushions, on the other hand, which are often used to relieve sitting discomfort, are usually made of foam and feature functional yet unobtrusive or promotional designs. Some seat cushions are foldable and feature carrying straps for easier transport. However, a combination of a handbag and a seat cushion is unknown to date. Summary of the invention

[0003] The invention according to claim 1 combines a handbag with a seat cushion into a single unit that is both practical and aesthetically pleasing. This combination allows the seat cushion to be transported discreetly and conveniently and used as needed without having to carry it separately.

[0004] The invention comprises: • Bag Section A (Seat Cushion Compartment): This compartment contains a seat cushion made of body-weight adjustable foam, which is securely stowed away with a zipper. The seat cushion is fully integrated into the design of the bag and is not noticeable to outsiders as a separate element. • Bag section B (handbag): This compartment corresponds to a conventional handbag, which is used to store personal items.

[0005] The two bag parts A and B are made of the same material and are connected by snap fasteners. This allows them to be easily separated and reassembled. How it works and advantages

[0006] During use—for example, in theaters, opera houses, restaurants, or other events requiring extended seating—the seat cushion can be discreetly removed from bag section B and placed on the seat. After use, the seat cushion is placed back into compartment A and the bag reassembled.

[0007] The main advantages of the invention are: 1. Inconspicuousness: The seat cushion is integrated into the bag and is not recognizable to outsiders as a separate element. 2. Practical use: The necessary seat cushion will not be forgotten as it is part of the handbag. 3. Flexibility: The invention offers numerous design possibilities in terms of shape, size, material and design. 4. Individualization: The compression hardness of the foam can be adjusted to the individual body weight. Design options

[0008] The bag can be manufactured in various designs, sizes, and materials to appeal to different target groups and applications. Customization of accessories such as carrying straps and closure types is also possible. Legend to Fig 1, Fig 2 and Fig 3

[0009] The invention is a combination of a handbag and a seat cushion, which has the following features: The handbag (1) can be used either on its own or in combination with the seat cushion (2). To do this, the seat cushion is connected to the handbag, e.g. using snap fasteners (3 & 4). The handbag (1) can be used either as an underarm handbag (so-called "clutch") or as a hanging handbag. For this purpose, the handle (7) can be attached to or removed from the handbag (1), e.g. using hooks or eyelets (5 & 6). One attachment option is available on the handle (5) and the other on the handbag (6).
