[0011] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Although preferred embodiments are shown in the drawings, the invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. In the following description, when terms indicating specific directions or positions (e.g., "left and right," "up and down") are used as needed, the longitudinal direction of the storage pouch 1 shown in Figure 1, etc. will be defined as the left-right direction, the direction corresponding to the top and bottom of the paper will be defined as the up and down direction, and the direction perpendicular to the left-right direction, excluding the up and down direction, will be defined as the front-back direction.
[0012] The storage pouch 1 of the embodiment (hereinafter simply referred to as "pouch") will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 20. The items L (see Figures 19 and 20) stored in pouch 1 are not limited to any particular type of item, but include all items that can be stored. Examples include clothing, documents, stationery such as notebooks, books, magazines, daily necessities, household goods, hobby and recreation items, food and beverages, or medical supplies.
[0013] Figure 1 is a perspective view of pouch 1 with the side gusset 4 extended, Figure 2 is a front view, Figure 3 is a rear view, Figure 4 is a top view, Figure 5 is a bottom view, Figure 6 is a left side view, and Figure 7 is a right side view.
[0014] Figure 8 is a perspective view of pouch 1 with the side gusset 4 shortened, Figure 9 is a front view, Figure 10 is a rear view, Figure 11 is a top view, Figure 12 is a bottom view, Figure 13 is a left side view, and Figure 14 is a right side view.
[0015] Figure 15 is a perspective view showing the front flap 2 of pouch 1 with the partition bottom 5 moved towards the rear flap 3, and Figure 16 is an enlarged perspective view showing the rear flap 3 with the state in Figure 15 open. Figure 17 is a perspective view showing the rear flap 3 of pouch 1 with the partition bottom 5 moved towards the front flap 2, and Figure 18 is an enlarged perspective view showing the front flap 2 with the state in Figure 17 open.
[0016] Figure 19 is a cross-sectional view showing the case where luggage L is stored with the bottom of the divider 5 of pouch 1 moved towards the rear lid 3, and Figure 20 is a cross-sectional view showing the case where luggage L is stored with the bottom of the divider 5 of pouch 1 moved towards the front lid 2.
[0017] As shown in Figures 1 to 20, the pouch 1 of the embodiment has a front flap 2, a rear flap 3, and a side gusset 4 connected to the front flap 2 and the rear flap 3, and is formed as a roughly rectangular parallelepiped overall. The internal space of the pouch 1, that is, the space enclosed by the front flap 2, the rear flap 3, and the side gusset 4, is the storage space for storing luggage L. The front flap 2, the rear flap 3, and the side gusset 4 are made of a flexible material, such as a fabric made of synthetic fibers, regenerated fibers, or natural fibers. The side gusset 4 is formed in a roughly cylindrical shape that opens to both the front and rear sides, and has a top gusset 41, a bottom gusset 42, a left gusset 43, and a right gusset 44.
[0018] The front opening 45 of the side gusset portion 4 is covered by the front flap portion 2 in a way that allows it to be opened and closed. A front zipper 21 is provided between the front flap portion 2 and the front opening end of the side gusset portion 4. In this embodiment, the front zipper 21 extends continuously from approximately the left end of the bottom gusset 42 through the left gusset 43, top gusset 41 and right gusset 44 to the right end of the bottom gusset 42, between the front flap portion 2 and the front opening end of the side gusset portion 4. The front zipper 21 is provided with two sliders 22. By sliding the sliders 22 to open and close the front zipper 21, the front opening 45 of the side gusset portion 4 is opened and closed by the front flap portion 2.
[0019] The rear opening 46 of the side gusset portion 4 is covered by the rear flap portion 3 in a way that allows it to be opened and closed. A rear zipper 31 is provided between the rear flap portion 3 and the rear opening end of the side gusset portion 4. The rear zipper 31 of this embodiment, like the front zipper 21, extends continuously from approximately the left end of the bottom gusset 42 through the left gusset 43, top gusset 41 and right gusset 44 to the right end of the bottom gusset 42, between the front flap portion 2 and the front opening end of the side gusset portion 4. The rear zipper 31 is provided with two sliders 32. As with the front zipper 21, when the rear zipper 31 is opened and closed by sliding the sliders 32, the rear opening 46 of the side gusset portion 4 is opened and closed by the rear flap portion 3.
[0020] An adjustment fastener 47 is provided on the outer periphery of the side gusset portion 4, specifically between the portion of the side gusset portion 4 closer to the front opening 45 and the portion of the side gusset portion 4 closer to the rear opening 46. The adjustment fastener 47 has a different role from the front and rear fasteners 21 and 31, and is responsible for widening or narrowing the front-to-back width of the side gusset portion 4 in the front-to-back direction. In this embodiment, the adjustment fastener 47 extends continuously from the middle of the bottom gusset 42 through the right gusset 44, top gusset 41 and left gusset 43 to the middle of the bottom gusset 42 again, between the portion of the side gusset portion 45 and the portion of the side gusset 46. In this case, the end of the adjustment fastener 47 overlaps the starting end of the adjustment fastener 47 on the outer surface of the bottom gusset 42 (not shown).
[0021] The adjustment zipper 47 is equipped with one slider 48. When the adjustment zipper 47 is fully opened by sliding the slider 48, the side gusset section 4 can be extended in the front-to-back direction, increasing its front-to-back width, and as a result, the storage space inside the pouch 1 can be expanded to its maximum volume. Conversely, when the adjustment zipper 47 is fully closed by sliding the slider 48, the side gusset section 4 can be forcibly shortened in the front-to-back direction, reducing its front-to-back width, and as a result, the storage space inside the pouch 1 can be reduced.
[0022] When pouch 1 is not in use, the thickness (front-to-back width) of pouch 1 can be reduced by fully closing the adjustment zipper 47, making pouch 1 more compact. When storing luggage L in pouch 1, fully open the adjustment zipper 47 to extend the side gusset section 4 in the front-to-back direction, widening the front-to-back width of the side gusset section 4 (which can also be called the thickness of pouch 1), and expanding the storage space inside pouch 1 to its maximum volume. In this way, a large amount of luggage L can be stored according to the maximum volume of pouch 1.
[0023] The pouch 1 is provided with a partition bottom 5 that divides the interior (which can also be called the interior of the side gusset 4) into front and back sections. Therefore, the interior space of the pouch 1 is divided by the partition bottom 5 into a front storage space that communicates with the front opening 45 and a rear storage space that communicates with the rear opening 46. The partition bottom 5 is formed in a roughly rectangular shape and, like the front flap 2, rear flap 3 and side gusset 4, is made of a flexible material such as a fabric made of synthetic fibers, recycled fibers, or natural fibers.
[0024] On the inner surface of the side gusset portion 4, a roughly cylindrical lining portion 6 is provided, opening to both the front and rear sides, similar to the side gusset portion 4. The lining portion 6 is positioned to overlap the inner surface of the side gusset portion 4. The bottom of the partition is connected to the lining portion 6 by means of sewing or other means, but in this embodiment, the front-to-back width dimension WL of the lining portion 6 is made larger than the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4. In this embodiment, the lining portion 6 is divided into a front lining portion 61 and a rear lining portion 62. The front-to-back width dimensions WL61 and WL62 of the front and rear lining portions 61 and 62, excluding the seam allowance, are set to be greater than 0.5 times the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4, excluding the seam allowance, but smaller than 1 time (0.5W). <WL61<W、0.5W<WL62<W)。
[0025] As shown in Figures 19 and 20, the front peripheral edge of the front lining portion 61 is connected to the front peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the rear peripheral edge of the front zipper 21 by sewing or other means, with the front edging portion 71 covering it. The rear peripheral edge of the rear lining portion 62 is connected to the rear peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the front peripheral edge of the rear zipper 31 by sewing or other means, with the rear edging portion 72 covering it. Furthermore, the rear peripheral edge of the front lining portion 61, the front peripheral edge of the rear lining portion 62, and the peripheral edge of the bottom of the partition 5 are connected to each other by sewing or other means, with the middle edging portion 73 covering them.
[0026] In this embodiment, the peripheral edge of the front flap 2, the peripheral edge of the front outer pocket 23 (described later), the peripheral edge of the front inner pocket 25 (described later), and the front peripheral edge of the front zipper 21 are connected by means of sewing or other means while covered by the front flap trim 74. The peripheral edge of the rear flap 3 and the rear peripheral edge of the rear zipper 31 are connected by means of sewing or other means while covered by the rear flap trim 75.
[0027] With this configuration, the sum of the front-to-back width dimensions WL61 and WL62 of the front and rear lining sections 61 and 62 is greater than the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset section 4, allowing for adjustment of the storage space by moving the bottom of the partition 5 within the pouch 1, either towards the rear lid section 3 or the front lid section 2. For example, if the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the rear lid section 3, the storage space within the pouch 1 can be largely occupied as the front storage space (see Figures 15 and 19). Conversely, if the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the front lid section 2, the storage space within the pouch 1 can be largely occupied as the rear storage space (see Figures 16 and 20).
[0028] As shown in Figure 16, if the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the rear lid 3 and the rear lid 3 is opened, the bottom of the partition 5 will appear blocking the rear opening 46 of the side gusset 4. As shown in Figure 18, if the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the front lid 2 and the front lid 2 is opened, the bottom of the partition 5 will appear blocking the front opening 45 of the side gusset 4.
[0029] Therefore, for example, when storing luggage L such as clothing in the pouch 1, the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the rear lid 3, and luggage L before wearing is stored in the front storage space (see Figures 15 and 19). After wearing, luggage L is sequentially stored in the rear storage space, and finally, the bottom of the partition 5 is moved towards the front lid 2, making it possible to store all worn luggage L in the rear storage space (see Figures 16 and 20). In other words, according to the configuration of this embodiment, a pouch 1 that can effectively utilize the entire internal storage space can be realized.
[0030] In this embodiment, an upward-opening front outer pocket 23 is provided on the outer surface of the front flap 2. A detachable snap button 24 is provided at the corresponding location on the front flap 2 and the upper center of the front outer pocket 23. An upward-opening front inner pocket 25 is also provided on the inner surface of the front flap 2. A detachable snap button 26 is provided at the corresponding location on the front flap 2 and the upper center of the front inner pocket 25. Furthermore, a handle 49 for carrying the pouch 1 is attached to the outer surface of the top gusset 41.
[0031] Next, an alternative example of the pouch 1 will be described with reference to Figures 21 and 22. Figure 21 is a cross-sectional view showing a first alternative example of how the partition bottom 5 is attached, and Figure 22 is a cross-sectional view showing a second alternative example of how the partition bottom 5 is attached. In each alternative example, components whose configuration and operation are common to the embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as the embodiment, and their detailed description is omitted.
[0032] In the first alternative example shown in Figure 21, the lining portion 6 is not constructed as a separate component but as a single member, and the front-to-back width dimension WL of the lining portion 6 is given extra room compared to the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4. It is preferable to set the front-to-back width dimension WL of the lining portion 6, excluding the seam allowance, to be approximately equal in size to the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4, excluding the seam allowance. The front-to-back width dimension WL of the lining portion 6 does not need to be shortened to 0.5 times the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4.
[0033] In Figure 21, one peripheral edge of the lining portion 6 is connected to the front peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the rear peripheral edge of the front zipper 21 by sewing or other means, with the front edging portion 71 covering it, and the other peripheral edge is connected to the peripheral edge of the partition bottom portion 5 by sewing or other means, with the middle edging portion 73 covering it, but the configuration is not limited to this. The lining portion 6 and partition bottom portion 5 in Figure 21 may be turned inside out, that is, one peripheral edge of the lining portion 6 may be connected to the rear peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the front peripheral edge of the rear zipper 31 by sewing or other means, with the rear edging portion 72 covering it, and the other peripheral edge may be connected to the peripheral edge of the partition bottom portion 5 by sewing or other means, with the middle edging portion 73 covering it.
[0034] Even with this configuration, the bottom of the partition 5 can be moved within the pouch 1 to adjust the storage space, such as by moving it towards the rear lid 3 or the front lid 2, thereby creating a pouch 1 that can effectively utilize the entire internal storage space.
[0035] In the second alternative example shown in Figure 22, the lining portion 6 is omitted, and the size of the partition bottom portion 5 itself is set larger, with the peripheral portion of the partition bottom portion 5 functioning as the lining portion 6 in the embodiment and the first alternative example. In this case, the peripheral portion of the partition bottom portion 5 is made longer than the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4 to provide some leeway.
[0036] In Figure 22, the peripheral edge of the partition bottom 5 is connected to the front peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the rear peripheral edge of the front zipper 21 by sewing or other means, with the front edging portion 71 covering it. However, the design is not limited to this configuration. The partition bottom 5 in Figure 22 may also be inverted, meaning that the peripheral edge of the partition bottom 5 is connected to the rear peripheral edge of the adjustment zipper 47 and the front peripheral edge of the rear zipper 31 by sewing or other means, with the rear edging portion 72 covering it.
[0037] Even with this configuration, the bottom of the partition 5 can be moved within the pouch 1 to adjust the storage space, such as by moving it towards the rear lid 3 or the front lid 2, thereby creating a pouch 1 that can effectively utilize the entire internal storage space.
[0038] Furthermore, the provision of extra space compared to the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4 is not limited to the lining portion 6 (both front and rear lining portions 61, 62) or the peripheral edge of the partition bottom portion 5 alone. It is sufficient to achieve the effects of the present invention by combining the lining portion 6 (both front and rear lining portions 61, 62) and the peripheral edge of the partition bottom portion 5 to provide extra space compared to the front-to-back width dimension W of the side gusset portion 4.
[0039] Although embodiments have been described above, the configuration of each part in the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention. [Explanation of Symbols]
