DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0022] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 14. Note that the settings of front / back, up / down, left / right in the specification and drawings are for the convenience of explanation.

[0023] The bag is capable of storing various items T inside.

[0024] The bag of this embodiment is suitable for use when the user uses facilities where they come into contact with water, such as sauna facilities, bath facilities, and pool facilities.

[0025] The bag is configured to have excellent waterproof properties. The bag can be used to carry items T (clothing, swimsuits, towels, other small items, etc.) that become wet after using a facility that comes into contact with water. In other words, the bag is configured to prevent water from leaking out.

[0026] The bag comprises a first storage section 1 provided on one side with a first storage space S1 into which an item T can be put in and taken out through a first opening K1, a second storage section 2 provided on the other side with a second storage space S2 into which an item T can be put in and taken out through a second opening K2, and a partition 3 interposed between the first storage space S1 and the second storage space S2 to separate the first storage section 1 from the second storage section 2.

[0027] The bag is mainly made of a water-repellent or waterproof sheet material in both the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2. The partition 3 serves as a component of the first storage section 1 that forms the first storage space S1 and as a component of the second storage section 2 that forms the second storage space S2.

[0028] The bag of this embodiment will be described in detail below.

[0029] <<First storage section 1>> The first storage section 1 comprises one storage section component part A arranged at the front, the other storage section component part B arranged at the rear opposite to the one storage section component part A, a connecting part C connecting the lower part of the one storage section component part A and the other storage section component part B, a first opening K1 provided between the one storage section component part A and the other storage section component part B in an openable and closable manner, and a slide fastener F provided between the peripheral parts of the one and the other storage section component parts A, B excluding the connecting part C so as to open and close the first opening K1.

[0030] Between one storage unit constituent part A and the other storage unit constituent part B, a first storage space S1 capable of storing an article T is formed.

[0031] <One storage section component A> One of the storage section components A comprises a front cover portion 11 having a horizontally elongated rectangular shape when viewed from the front, a peripheral cover portion 12 extending rearward from the peripheral edge of the front cover portion 11, one slide fastener component member f1 and a connecting portion C arranged at the extended end of the peripheral cover portion 12, and a first pocket forming member dc arranged to connect between the left and right side portions 12b of the peripheral cover portion 12 and having a lower end connected to the lower portion 12c of the peripheral cover portion 12.

[0032] The front cover part 11 and the peripheral cover part 12 are made of a water-repellent or waterproof fabric. The front cover part 11 and the peripheral cover part 12 are made of a double layer of water-repellent or waterproof soft fabric.

[0033] A handle E that can be gripped by a user is provided in the left-right center of the upper part 12a of the peripheral cover part 12. Connection holes G are provided on both left and right sides of the handle E of the peripheral cover part 12, which are convenient for connecting an end of a hanging device (not shown) such as a neck belt or for hanging on a hook (not shown). The handle E and the connection holes G are formed by sewing a belt-shaped member H to the upper parts of the upper part 12a and both left and right parts 12b of the peripheral cover part 12.

[0034] One of the storage section constituent parts A is provided with a first pocket D having a first pocket space ds capable of storing an article T. That is, the first pocket space ds provided in one of the storage section constituent parts is formed by a region surrounded by a first pocket forming member dc made of a stretch mesh having a band-shaped rubber material dg on its edge, the front cover part 11, and the peripheral cover part 12.

[0035] <The other storage section component B> The other storage section component B comprises a partition 3 arranged opposite the front cover portion 11, the other slide fastener component member f2 and connecting portion C arranged on the peripheral portion of the partition 3, and a second pocket forming member pc arranged so as to cover one half of either the left or right side of the partition 3.

[0036] The partition 3 constitutes the other storage section constituent part B of the first storage section 1 and also constitutes the second storage section 2.

[0037] The partition 3 is composed of a partition main body portion 31 that constitutes the main part, and a gusset portion 32 that is connected to the periphery of the partition main body portion 31 and changes the division position of the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2.

[0038] The partition body 31 is made of a transparent, water-proof synthetic resin sheet material formed in a horizontally elongated rectangular shape. The partition body 31 is harder than the gusset portion 32.

[0039] That is, the partition body 31 is made of a material that is less flexible than the gusset portion 32. The partition body 31 is transparent. A user of the bag can see through the partition body 31 to see the back side.

[0040] The gusset portion 32 is made of a soft fabric having water repellency or waterproofness. The gusset portion 32 is softer than the partition body portion 31. In other words, the gusset portion 32 is made of a material having better flexibility than the partition body portion 31.

[0041] The gusset portion 32 is sleeve-shaped. The gusset portion 32 is continuous in a cylindrical shape. The gusset portion 32 is interposed between the peripheral edge of the partition body portion 31 and the other slide fastener component f2 and the connecting portion C.

[0042] The other storage section constituent part B is provided with a second pocket P having a second pocket space ps capable of storing an article T at a position facing one storage section constituent part A.

[0043] That is, the second pocket space ps is formed by an area surrounded by the second pocket forming member pc made of a stretch mesh having a band-shaped rubber material pg on its edge and the partition 3. The peripheral edge of the second pocket forming member pc is connected to the peripheral edge of the partition 3, i.e., the gusset portion 32.

[0044] <Slide fastener F> The slide fastener F has a known structure in which one and the other slide fastener components f1, f2 are brought into contact with and separated from each other by a sliding operation of a slider fs, thereby opening and closing the first opening K1.

[0045] The slide fastener F is disposed across the entire width of the upper portion of the first storage section 1, the entire vertical areas of both left and right sides, and both ends of the lower portion.

[0046] 6, the first storage section 1 can take an unfolded position (R) in which the inner surfaces of the one and other storage section constituent parts A and B face upward when the connected state of the one and other slide fastener constituent members f1, f2 by the slide fastener F is released. When the first storage section 1 is in the unfolded position (R), the first storage space S1 is opened, and the interior of the one and other storage section constituent parts A and B can be easily viewed.

[0047] <<Second storage section 2>> The second storage section 2 can be in an open state (L) in which the article T can be taken in and out through the second opening K2, and in a closed state (N) in which the article T cannot be taken in and out through the second opening K2.

[0048] In other words, the second storage section 2 is capable of opening the second opening K2 when the opening edge portion 21e of the second opening K2 is in a non-wound state, and is capable of adopting an expanded state (L) in which the second opening K2 can be opened and an item T can be taken in and out through the opened second opening K2, and is capable of adopting a closed state (N) in which an item T cannot be taken in and out when the opening edge portion 21e of the second opening K2 is in a rolled-up state.

[0049] When the second storage section 2 is in the unfolded state (L), it defines a second storage space S2 whose interior dimensions gradually increase from the second opening K2 side toward the partition 3 side in a cross-sectional view.

[0050] The second storage section 2 is provided with a second opening K2 at its outer end. The second storage section 2 includes a second storage section main body 21 made of a soft fabric having water repellency or waterproof properties, and a partition 3 disposed at the base end of the second storage section main body 21.

[0051] The second storage section main body 21 has a rectangular shape and comprises a pair of main cover parts 211 arranged on the inner side facing the second storage space S2, and left and right side cover parts 212 arranged to connect the side edges of the main cover parts 211.

[0052] The pair of main cover parts 211 and the left and right side cover parts 212 are made of a double layer of water-repellent or waterproof soft fabric material.

[0053] The left and right side cover parts 212 are provided with a tip cover part 213 formed so that the width dimension gradually decreases from the base end side having the partition 3 toward the tip side having the second opening K2. The tip cover part 213 has an appearance of a substantially triangle that is pointed toward the tip side in a side view.

[0054] The second opening K2 has a pair of flexible core materials M arranged in a band shape on the edge of the opening so as to face each other. The pair of core materials M has a dimension corresponding to almost the entire area of ​​the second opening K2 in the left-right direction, and is provided at the tip portions of the pair of main cover parts 211. The pair of core materials M is made of synthetic resin.

[0055] The second storage section 2 is configured such that an opening edge portion 21e of the second opening K2 can be wound around a pair of core materials M as a winding core so that the pair of core materials M approach each other in the direction of the partition 3. The opening edge portion 21e, which is the portion wound around the core material M as a winding core, is provided in the second storage section main body 21.

[0056] When the user operates the device to roll the opening edge portion 21e of the second storage section 2 so that it approaches the partition 3, the items T, such as clothing, stored in the second storage space S2 are compressed and deformed, which contributes to making the items compact and suitable for storage and carrying.

[0057] At both ends, i.e., the left and right ends, of the second opening K2 having a pair of core materials M, a fastener J2 capable of being engaged with and disengaged from one fastener J1 provided on the outer surface of the second storage section 2 is provided. The one and other fasteners J2 are of a known configuration called buckles.

[0058] One of the fasteners J1 is connected to the outer surface of the second storage section 2 via a belt member v. The other fastener J2 is connected to both left and right ends of the second opening K2 where the ends of the pair of core materials M are located via a belt member v.

[0059] <Regarding the partition body portion 31 of the partition 3> Next, the function and effect of the partition main body 31 of the partition 3 interposed between the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2 will be described.

[0060] The partition 3 has a partition body 31 made of a transparent synthetic resin sheet material. Therefore, the bag allows the user to see the first storage space S1 side or the second storage space S2 side located on the back side through the transparent partition body 31.

[0061] As shown in FIG. 13, a user can easily visually recognize an article T stored in the second storage space S2 of the second storage section 2 from the first storage section 1 side through the partition main body portion 31.

[0062] As shown in FIG. 14, a user can easily visually recognize the item T stored in the first storage space S1 of the first storage section 1 from the second storage section 2 side through the partition main body portion 31.

[0063] As shown in Figure 13, the bag of this embodiment can be configured so that the slide fastener F of the first storage section 1 can be released from its connected state, allowing one storage section component part A to be laid down on a supporting surface U such as a top plate, while the other storage section component part B adjacent to the one storage section component part B can be held upright relative to the supporting surface U.

[0064] More specifically, in the bag of this embodiment, one storage section constituent part A is placed on the mounting surface U with the outer surface side of the front cover part 11 facing the mounting surface U, while changing the position of the one storage section constituent part A so that the inner surface side of the one storage section constituent part A faces upward, and then the other storage section constituent part B can be held in an upright position relative to the mounting surface U, supported by the second storage section 2. The degree to which the other storage section constituent part B stands up relative to the mounting surface U can be adjusted by the degree to which the connection state by the slide fastener F is released.

[0065] <About the gusset part 32 of the partition 3> Next, the function and effect of the gusset portion 32 in the partition 3 interposed between the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2 will be described.

[0066] The partition 3 is provided with a gusset portion 32, so that the partition body portion 31 can flexibly move as the gusset portion 32 deforms.

[0067] As illustrated in Figures 11 and 12, the volume of the first storage space S1 (first pocket space ds) of the first storage section 1 and the volume of the second storage space S1 of the second storage section 1 can flexibly increase or decrease by changing the position of the partition 3 (the front-to-rear position of the partition main body portion 31) depending on the size and presence or absence of an item T stored in the second pocket P, and the size and presence or absence of an item T stored in the second storage space S2 in the second storage section 2.

[0068] An example of a situation in which the bag of this embodiment is used (before and after use of a sauna facility) will be described below.

[0069] Before using the sauna facility, the user stores dry items T such as soaps, cosmetics, personal belongings, and a pouch storing them in the first pocket D of the first storage section 1, and stores items T such as a change of dry clothes and a dry towel in the second pocket P of the first storage section 1. The second storage section 2 is left empty or has only a small amount of items T stored therein.

[0070] In the above-described state of use of the bag, the partition body 31 of the partition 3 constituting the second pocket P is moved in a direction that greatly expands the second pocket space sp (i.e., toward the second opening K2 of the second storage section 2) due to deformation of the gusset portion 32 caused by storing the item T in the second pocket space ps. Therefore, even an item T that is relatively bulky, such as dry clothes or a towel, can be stored in the second pocket P without difficulty.

[0071] Next, after using the sauna facility, the user throws items T, such as used clothes and wet towels, into the second storage section 2 through the second opening K2 to store them. At this time, the user has already removed items T, such as dry clothes and towels, from the second pocket P, so there are no items T stored in the second pocket P.

[0072] In the above-mentioned use state of the bag, the partition body 31 of the partition 3 constituting the second storage section 2 is moved in a direction that greatly expands the second storage space S2 (i.e., in the direction of one storage section constituent part A in the first storage section 1) due to deformation of the gusset part 32 caused by the introduction of an item into the second storage space S2. Therefore, even if the item T is bulky and often not folded neatly, such as used clothes or a wet towel after use, it can be stored in the second storage section 2, in which the second storage space S2 is secured large and water leakage is suppressed, without difficulty after using a sauna facility or the like. If the user connects the one and the other fasteners J1 and J2 while rolling up the opening edge part 21e of the second storage section 2 so as to approach the partition 3 direction, the item T, such as clothes or towels, stored in the second storage space S2 is compressed and deformed as the second storage section 2 is rolled up, and it is possible to achieve a compact size suitable for storage and carrying. In particular, used clothes, towels, and other items T are often not folded neatly by the user, and therefore tend to be bulkier than unused items. Therefore, used clothes, towels, and other items T can be advantageously compressed by being wrapped around the second storage section 2.

[0073] As described above, the bag of this embodiment comprises a first storage section 1 having a first storage space S1 provided on one side and allowing an item T to be taken in and out through a first opening K1, a second storage section 2 having a second storage space S2 provided on the other side and allowing an item T to be taken in and out through a second opening K2, and a partition 3 interposed between the first storage space S1 and the second storage space S2 to separate the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2.

[0074] The partition 3 is configured to include a partition main body 31 and a gusset portion 32 that is connected to the periphery of the partition main body 31 and changes the partition position between the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2. The partition main body 31 is harder than the gusset portion 32.

[0075] Therefore, it is possible to provide a bag that not only allows the item T to be easily put in and taken out, but also prevents the item T from losing its shape.

[0076] That is, the partition 3 has a gusset portion 32 around the partition main body portion 31. Therefore, in this embodiment, the partition 3 is configured to be easily moved uniformly between the first storage portion 1 and the second storage portion 2. Therefore, in the bag of this embodiment, the partition 3 having the gusset portion 32 allows the item T to be easily put in and taken out.

[0077] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the partition body 31 is harder than the gusset portion 32. Therefore, even when an article T is stored in the partition 3, the partition 3 as a whole is prevented from losing its shape.

[0078] In particular, even if small and heavy items T are stored in the first and second storage spaces S1 and S2, the partition main body portion 31, which is constructed to be harder than the gusset portion 32, makes it less likely for localized deformation to occur in the partition main body portion 31, and effectively prevents the partition 3 as a whole from losing its shape.

[0079] Since the partition body portion 31 is transparent, the rear side can be easily seen through the partition body portion 31.

[0080] With such a configuration, the user can properly recognize the item T stored in the first storage space S1 or the second storage space S2, which is located on the back side as seen from the user, through the partition main body portion T, thereby effectively preventing the user from forgetting to take out the item T.

[0081] In particular, the bag of this embodiment is suitable for use when using facilities that come into contact with water, such as sauna facilities, bath facilities, pool facilities, etc. For this reason, the transparent partition body 31 can function suitably, for example, when a user who has finished using the facility returns home with wet clothes or towels still stored in the bag.

[0082] In other words, the presence of the transparent partition main body 31 advantageously prevents the user from taking out only the item T stored in the first storage section 1 and leaving the item T (wet clothes or towels) stored in the second storage section 2 there.

[0083] The first opening K1 is configured so as to be openable and closable by a slide fastener F.

[0084] Therefore, the first storage section 1 is configured such that the article T can be smoothly put in and taken out by opening and closing the first opening K1 with the slide fastener F.

[0085] The second opening K2 has a pair of strip-shaped core materials M disposed on the edge of the opening so as to face each other.

[0086] Therefore, the second opening K2 of the second storage section 2 can be opened and closed very easily by moving the pair of cores M closer and farther apart. Therefore, the second opening K2 not only contributes to smooth insertion and removal of the article T, but also makes it easy to insert the article T into the second storage space S2, which has a larger volume than the first storage space S1.

[0087] The opening edge portion 21e of the second storage portion 2 is configured so that a pair of core materials M can be wound around it as a winding core.

[0088] Therefore, articles T such as clothes and towels placed in the second storage space S2 can be compressed compactly while blocking the second opening K2 so that the articles T do not come out.

[0089] A fastener J2 that can be engaged with and disengaged from one fastener J1 provided on the outer surface of the second storage section 2 is disposed on both ends of the second opening K2 having a pair of core materials M.

[0090] Therefore, by engaging the one and the other locking devices J2, the second opening K2 can be suitably maintained in a closed state.

[0091] Both the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2 are mainly made of a water-repellent or waterproof sheet material.

[0092] Therefore, in this embodiment, even if a wet object T is stored, it can be carried conveniently without wetting the surrounding area during transportation.

[0093] A second pocket P is provided having a second pocket space ps in which an item T can be stored, and the second pocket space ps is formed between a second pocket forming member pc arranged in the first storage section 1 and a partition 3.

[0094] For this reason, the second pocket P is capable of flexibly storing the item T since the volume of the second pocket space ps can be flexibly changed by moving the position of the partition 3.

[0095] The partition 3 serves as a constituent part of both the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2.

[0096] Therefore, the partition 3 can take a suitable position depending on the usage state of the first storage section 1 and the second storage section 2.

[0097] The first storage section 1 comprises one storage section component part A, the other storage section component part B arranged in a position opposite to the one storage section component part A, and a slide fastener F provided between the peripheral portions of the one and the other storage section component parts B.

[0098] Therefore, the storage section constituent part A on one side and the storage section constituent part B on the other side can be opened and closed suitably.

[0099] When the first storage section 1 is released from the connected state by the slide fastener F, it can take an expanded position (R) in which the inner surfaces of the first and second storage section constituent parts A and B face upward.

[0100] Therefore, the first storage section 1 can take the deployed position (R) as required, providing excellent visibility of the internal space.

[0101] The second storage section 2 includes a second storage space S2 that is formed so that the inside dimensions gradually increase from the second opening K2 side toward the partition 3 side.

[0102] Therefore, the second storage space S2 provided in the second storage section 2 has a shape capable of storing the article T suitably.

[0103] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above in detail.

[0104] It goes without saying that the specific aspects of the first storage section and the second storage section may be set in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
