Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to a bag that allows goods stored inside to be seen from the outside. [Background technology]

[0002] BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, there have been bags in which hobby goods such as badges and key chains placed inside the bag can be seen from the outside by making one side of the bag transparent. The bag in Patent Document 1 is such a bag, and has a holding sheet to which goods can be attached and held, and a storage section for storing the holding sheet. The outer surface of the storage section is made transparent, so that the designs of the goods attached to the holding sheet can be seen from the outside. This allows you to enjoy designing one side of the bag to suit your tastes, and you can also enjoy changing the design by changing the goods. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3207520 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, the bag in Patent Document 1 allows others to see the goods inside and reveal one's hobbies and preferences. For this reason, in some situations, such as on a train or at work, one may not want others to know one's hobbies and preferences, making the bag unsuitable for use. If only one side of the bag is transparent, it is possible to turn the bag inside out and press the transparent part against one's body to hide the transparent part or goods, but it is difficult to keep them completely hidden for long periods of time.

[0005] The present invention has been made to solve the above problem, and aims to provide a bag that allows goods stored inside to be visible from the outside, while also allowing the goods to be hidden depending on the situation. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The above problem is solved by a bag comprising a bag body having a storage space inside which an item inserted through an opening is stored, and a pouch which can enter and exit the storage space through the opening, wherein the bag body has a partition which separates the storage space, and a pouch storage section which stores the pouch so that it can enter and exit between this partition and at least one of the main surface sections, the surface section having a through hole which exposes the main surface of the pouch stored in the pouch storage section to the outside and having a frame section around the through hole, the main surface of the pouch having two main surfaces, each of which has an area which covers the through hole, and one of the two main surfaces having a transparent section which makes the inside of the pouch visible from the outside, and the other main surface being opaque.

[0007] According to the above configuration, the bag body has a pouch storage section for storing a pouch between at least one surface and a partition that separates the storage space, and the surface has a through-hole that exposes the main surface of the pouch stored in the pouch storage section to the outside. Therefore, the main surface of the pouch placed in the pouch storage section can be seen from the outside through the through-hole of the bag body. Since one of the main surfaces of the pouch has a transparent portion, placing the pouch in the pouch storage section with this transparent portion facing the through-hole allows the goods inside the pouch to be viewed from the outside through the transparent portion and the through-hole. If a transparent member were provided at the position of the through-hole in the bag body, the goods inside the pouch would be viewed through two transparent portions, which would reduce visibility. However, in the present invention, the area of the bag body through which the goods are viewed is the through-hole, so visibility is good. The other of the two main surfaces of the pouch is opaque. Therefore, if you do not want your hobbies and preferences to be known, you can place the other side of the pouch in the pouch storage section facing the through-hole, exposing the opaque side through the through-hole and preventing the goods from being seen from the outside. The bag body has a frame around the through hole on its surface, and the main surface of the pouch has an area that covers the through hole, so even if the bag body has a through hole, the pouch can be locked onto the frame and prevented from slipping out through the through hole.

[0008] Preferably, a ring-shaped member is partially connected to either the pouch or the partition, and a connecting member is provided which has one end connected to the other of the pouch or the partition and the other end passing through the ring of the ring-shaped member so as to be detachably connected. In this case, for example, by passing one end of a connecting member connected to the partition through the loop of a ring-shaped member connected to the pouch and then connecting the other end to the partition, the pouch and the partition can be connected via the connecting member and the ring-shaped member. Therefore, even if a through-hole is formed in the bag body, the pouch can be more effectively prevented from slipping out through the through-hole. Furthermore, because the other end of the connecting member is detachable, for example, by removing the other end from the partition, the connection between the ring-shaped member and the connecting member is released, and the pouch can be removed from the pouch storage section.

[0009] Preferably, the ring-shaped member is arranged on the top of the pouch or the partition, the connecting member is arranged on the top of the pouch or the partition, and the ring-shaped member or the connecting member connected to the partition is arranged on the surface opposite the through hole side. In this way, the connecting member and ring-shaped member are positioned above the pouch and the partition, and the pouch and the partition are connected at the top. Therefore, even if someone reaches their hand through the through-hole and pulls the pouch downward, the pouch is less likely to fly out of the through-hole. In other words, if the pouch and the partition were connected at the bottom, the pouch would easily come off the upper frame and fly out of the through-hole when pulled downward, but this prevents such a situation. Furthermore, since the ring-shaped member or connecting member connected to the partition is positioned on the surface opposite the through-hole side, when the pouch is inserted or removed from the pouch storage section located between the partition and the through-hole, the pouch can be inserted or removed smoothly without being hindered by the ring-shaped member or connecting member.

[0010] Preferably, one of the main surfaces of the pouch is characterized in that hard portions having a higher hardness than the transparent portion are arranged in a strip shape along the direction of entry and exit when entering and exiting in the regions on both the left and right sides of the transparent portion. In this way, even if the transparent part is made of a flexible material such as soft polyvinyl chloride and is prone to bending when the pouch is put in or taken out of the pouch storage part, the hard parts on both the left and right sides of the transparent part prevent bending, and the pouch can be easily put in or taken out of the pouch storage part.

[0011] Preferably, the frame and the other opaque main surface of the pouch have the same color and / or pattern, making it difficult to distinguish the boundary between the frame and the pouch and making the through-hole less noticeable.

[0012] Preferably, the other main surface of the pouch is generally more flexible than the frame portion, so that when the pouch is inflated with goods inside and the other opaque surface is exposed through the through-hole, the other surface of the pouch and the frame portion are tightly attached to each other, making the through-hole less noticeable. [Effects of the Invention]

[0013] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a bag that allows goods stored inside to be visible from the outside, and that can also hide the goods depending on the situation. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0015] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below are preferred examples of the present invention, and therefore various technically preferable limitations are applied thereto. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited to these embodiments unless otherwise specified in the following description to the effect that the present invention is limited thereto. In addition, in each drawing, similar components are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0016] In this embodiment, the bag 2 shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 is formed by combining the bag body 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 with the pouch 50 shown in FIGS. First, the bag body 10 will be described primarily using Figures 1 to 3, with reference to other figures as appropriate. Figure 1 is a perspective view of the front body (front section) 11 of the bag body 10, Figure 2 is a perspective view of the back body (back section) 12 of the bag body 10, and Figure 3 is a view of the inside of the bag body 10 viewed from diagonally above with the flap 20 opened. Note that, in this example, the side from which the flap 20 begins to be opened is considered the front body 11, focusing on the bag's inherent functionality. However, since the items placed inside are visible from the side shown in Figure 2, as will be described later, the side shown in Figure 2 may also be considered the front if the focus is on personal preferences. Also, Figures 2 and 3 show the shoulder strap 25 shown in Figure 1 removed. The area enclosed by the two-dot chain line in Figure 3 is an enlarged view of the area surrounding the connecting member 29.

[0017] 1 to 3 has a storage space S for storing an item inserted through an upper opening 30. Although the bag body 10 is shown as a formal bag by way of example, the present invention is not limited to this and can be used for various bags such as shoulder bags, clasp bags, tote bags, and other handbags, as well as briefcases. The bag body 10 in the figures is generally rectangular overall, and has a front body 11, a back body 12, and side body parts 13 and 14 as its main surfaces, and also has a cover 20. The front body 11 and the back body 12 have the same outer shape and are generally opposite each other. In this embodiment, the front body 11 and the back body 12 are rectangular in shape with a height that is smaller than the width.

[0018] The side portions 13, 14 are so-called gussets that connect the front body 11 and the back body 12. The side portions 13, 14 have the same outer shape and are arranged substantially opposite each other. When viewed from the front, the side portions 13, 14 in the drawings have a depth D1 that gradually narrows from the bottom surface 15 toward the top, forming a slightly trapezoidal shape, but the present invention is not limited to this. These side sections 13, 14 are not accordion-shaped, V-shaped, or like folding shapes, but rather have so-called horizontal gussets, and the front body 11 and back body 12 are integrated via the bottom section 15, with the side sections 13, 14 being surfaces independent of the front body 11, back body 12, and bottom section 15. This keeps the depth D1 between the front body 11 and back body 12 as constant as possible during use, making it easy to insert and remove a pouch 50 (see Figures 4 to 6; the same applies hereinafter unless otherwise specified) described below.

[0019] As shown in Fig. 1, shoulder straps 25 are detachably connected to side surface portions 13, 14. For example, D-rings 26 provided on side surface portions 13, 14 are connected to snap hooks 27 provided on shoulder strap 25, and shoulder strap 25 is detachably connected to side surface portions 13, 14. Although shoulder strap 25 in the figure is a belt, it may also be a chain or the like.

[0020] The flap 20 is a lid that can be opened and closed to cover the upper opening 30. Specifically, one end 20A of the flap 20 in the rolling direction R is sewn to the upper part 12A of the back 12, and the other end 20B is detachable from the front 11 using a fastener 23. The opening 30 can be opened and closed by rotating the flap 20 in the direction R around the upper part 12A of the back 12 as an axis. While the fastener 23 shown in the figure is a twist fastener, it can also be a hook-and-loop fastener, a hook-and-loop fastener, or the like. The flap 20 shown in this embodiment is used to enlarge the opening 30 and make it easier to insert and remove the pouch 50. However, the means for opening and closing the opening 30 of the present invention is not limited to the flap 20, and may be, for example, a zipper, a clasp like a clasp, or a type that can be tied with a string like a drawstring bag. A handle 24 is provided on the top surface of the flap 20 shown in the figure.

[0021] Here, bag body 10 has a partition 37 inside it that divides storage space S into at least two along the direction in which pouch 50 moves in and out. Partition 37 is a means for restricting movement of pouch 50, which will be described later, within storage space S. In other words, partition 37 is intended to form a pouch storage section 38 that stores pouch 50 between at least one of the main surface sections of bag body 10 (front body 11, back body 12, side sections 13, 14). As shown in Fig. 3, the one surface in this embodiment is the back body 12, and the partition 37 and the back body 12 are arranged to face each other, forming a pouch storage section 38 for storing a pouch 50 between the partition 37 and the back body 12. However, the configuration of the pouch storage section 38 in this device is not limited to this, and the pouch storage section 38 may also be between the partition 37 and the front body 11, or between the partition 37 and the side portion 13 or the side portion 14. Furthermore, for example, two partitions may be formed to divide the storage space S into three sections, and the space between the partition and the front body 11 and the space between the partition and the back body 12 may both be used as pouch storage sections 38.

[0022] The upper end of the divider 37 is not connected to anything so that the pouch 50 can be taken in and out through the upper opening 19 of the pouch storage section 38. The distance between the divider 37 and the back 12 is set so that the main surface of the pouch 50 containing goods stored in the pouch storage section 38 can easily come into light contact with the back 12. Note that the goods in this embodiment are assumed to be relatively thin goods such as can badges and pin badges. Specifically, the divider 37 has its lower edge 37B (see FIG. 2) sewn to the boundary BL1 (see FIG. 1) between the back 12 and the bottom 15 (i.e., the distance between the lower end of the divider 37 and the back 12 is approximately zero). As shown in FIG. 3, the distance between the divider 37 and the back 12 gradually increases toward the top, with the distance D2 between the upper edge 37C and the back 12 being the largest. This distance D2 is larger than the maximum thickness D3 (see FIG. 5) of a pouch 50 containing goods. Furthermore, the distance D4 between the lower peripheral edge 40A of a through-hole 40 in FIG. 3 (described later) and the divider 37, which is at the same height as the lower peripheral edge 40A, is slightly larger than the thickness D5 (see FIG. 5) of the bottom of the pouch 50 containing goods, allowing the pouch 50 to be placed below the lower peripheral edge 40A. 2 are sewn together at boundary BL2 between back body 12 and side portions 13, 14 shown in Fig. 1. This makes it easier to fit pouch 50 stored in pouch storage section 38 to back body 12.

[0023] 3 is made of a flexible and pliable fabric, and a surface 37A facing the back 12 is lined with a smooth fabric such as nylon (not shown). The partition 37 may be made of an elastic material such as a rubber sheet that exerts elasticity in the directions of the distances D2 and D4 so that the distances D2 and D4 from the back 12 can be adjusted. This allows the goods pouch 50 to be easily stored in the pouch storage section 38 and pressed against the back 12.

[0024] Additionally, upper edge 37C of divider 37 is located lower than upper edge 12B of back body 12. This is to facilitate the connecting operation, described later, for fixing pouch 50 to pouch storage section 38. That is, as shown in the diagram surrounded by the two-dot chain line in Figure 3, divider 37 is provided with connecting member 29 that connects to ring-shaped member 52 (see Figure 7) on pouch 50, described later, and this is to facilitate this connecting operation.

[0025] The connecting member 29 may be in any shape, such as a string, belt, chain, or tape, as long as it can be connected to the ring-shaped member 52 (see FIG. 7). The connecting member 29 shown in the figure is a slightly long tongue-like piece, with one end 29A fixed to the partition 37 by sewing, and the other end 29B being a free end. The other end 29B of the connecting member 29 is attachable to and detachable from the partition 37 by a connecting member 36. The connecting member 36 shown in the figure is a hook and eye fastener consisting of a male and female part, but it may also be a hook and loop fastener or the like.

[0026] In the present embodiment, as a preferred form, connecting member 29 is disposed entirely above partition 37, with one end 29A disposed relatively on the upper side and the other end 29B disposed relatively on the lower side. Connecting member 29 is also disposed on surface 37F of partition 37 opposite back body 12. Connecting member 29 is provided in two locations, on the side of side 13 and the side of side 14, corresponding to the positions of two ring-shaped members 52 (see FIG. 7) of pouch 50 housed in pouch housing section 38. Connecting member 29 is preferably a flexible member.

[0027] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 , at least one of the main surfaces of the bag body 10 (in this embodiment, the back body 12) has a through-hole 40 formed in the thickness direction of the bag body 10, leaving a frame 41 at the periphery. The through-hole 40 is a hole for exposing the main surface of the pouch 50 stored in the pouch storage section 38 to the outside. It is not covered with a transparent film or the like; it is simply a through hole. The through-hole 40 in the figure has a rectangular shape corresponding to the shape of the main surface of the pouch 50, and the frame 41 around the entire periphery of the through-hole 40 has a rectangular frame shape. A core material (not shown) is disposed inside the frame 41 to minimize deformation of the frame 41. Known core materials, such as pulp-based or resin-based materials, can be used for the core material. The end 20A of the cover 20 is connected to the top of the back body 12, and this end 20A also becomes part of the back body 12 and forms the frame 41.

[0028] Next, pouch 50 will be described mainly using Figures 4 and 5, with reference to other figures as appropriate. Figure 4(A) is a front view of one main surface 50A of pouch 50 having transparent portion 60, Figure 4(B) is a front view of the other opaque main surface 50B, and Figure 5 is a perspective view of pouch 50 viewed obliquely from above with zipper 54 of pouch 50 mostly open. Note that detailed shapes of elements 28 of zipper 54 are omitted in Figures 4 and 5.

[0029] The pouch 50 is an inner bag for putting the user's favorite goods GD in its inner space S2, and for making the goods visible through the through-hole 40 in FIG. 3, or conversely, for hiding them. In this embodiment, the goods GD to be placed in the pouch 50 are assumed to be thin goods such as badges, pin badges, key chains, etc., bearing images of animation or manga characters or photos of voice actors, actors, musicians, etc. Specifically, the user cuts cardboard, thin plastic sheet, etc. to a desired size to form a sheet-like body EH, attaches goods GD such as badges to it, and then places the sheet-like body EH in the inner space S2 for use. The pouch 50 containing the goods GD attached to the sheet-like body EH is formed slightly smaller than the space inside the pouch storage section 38 in FIG.

[0030] As shown in Figure 5, pouch 50 has a zipper 54 at the top, and opening 33 for putting goods GD in and out can be opened and closed. Zipper 54 is a slide zipper and has element 28 (detailed shape omitted) and slider 34. The zipper 54 in the figure does not have a fastener for fastening slider 34, and element 28 is bent at its end 28A and connected to fabric portion 56 at the top end of pouch 50. This allows slider 34 to slide to both the left and right ends, and therefore opening 33 of pouch 50 is formed large, making it easy to put goods GD in and out.

[0031] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, pouch 50 is a thin pouch with two opposing main surfaces 50A and 50B that are generally rectangular. Each of these two main surfaces 50A and 50B is larger than the opening area of through-hole 40 (see Figures 2, 3, and 6; the same applies below), and has an area that covers through-hole 40 when facing it head-on. Regarding main surfaces 50A and 50B of pouch 50 of this embodiment, both their vertical dimension H1 and horizontal dimension W1 are larger than the vertical dimension H2 and horizontal dimension W2 of through-hole 40 shown in Figure 2. As a result, when pouch 50 shown in Figure 4 is accommodated in the pouch accommodating section, all of peripheral edge 48 contacts the inside of frame 41 (see Figure 2), preventing pouch 50 from slipping out of through-hole 40.

[0032] 4 and 5, the pouch 50 has two main surfaces 50A, 50B, one of which, the main surface 50A, has a transparent portion 60 (a portion partially marked with parallel diagonal lines) that allows the internal space S2 to be viewed from the outside. The transparent portion 60 is arranged on the main surface 50A of the pouch 50 in the horizontal direction, excluding the regions AR at both the left and right ends. The transparent portion 60 is formed, for example, from a sheet-like polyvinyl chloride, and is preferably soft vinyl chloride so that it can flex in accordance with the shape and number of goods GD placed in the internal space S2. The transparent portion 60 is arranged in the entire vertical region, excluding the fastener 54. In regions AR on both the left and right sides of transparent portion 60, hard portions with a higher hardness than transparent portion 60 are arranged in strips along the direction of movement of pouch 50. These hard portions are formed by inserting core material 49 inside region AR. Well-known materials such as pulp-based or resin-based materials can be used for core material 49. Note that while the surface of region AR in the figure is an opaque portion made of genuine leather or synthetic leather, it may also be transparent as long as it has a higher hardness than central transparent portion 60.

[0033] In contrast, the other main surface 50B of the two main surfaces 50A, 50B of the pouch 50 is opaque. This concept of opacity includes not only cases where the entire other main surface 50B is opaque, but also cases where only a very limited portion (particularly the portion hidden by the frame portion 41 in FIG. 2) is transparent. This other main surface 50B is preferably more flexible overall than the frame portion 41 (see FIG. 2), and does not have a core material or the like disposed inside. This makes it easier to adhere the other main surface 50B to the inner surface of the frame portion 41 (see FIG. 2).

[0034] A ring-shaped member 52 is partially connected to the top of the pouch 50. The ring-shaped member 52 in this embodiment is a flexible string that is designed to bend toward the partition 37 when housed in the pouch housing section 38 shown in FIG. 3. However, the ring-shaped member 52 of the present invention is not limited to this, and may be formed by connecting a key chain or D-ring to the pouch 50 via a tab or chain, for example. The ring-shaped member 52 is also connected to the top of two side surfaces 50C and 50D of the pouch 50.

[0035] Next, the bag 2 in the state where the above-described bag body 10 and pouch 50 are combined will be described mainly with reference to FIGS. Fig. 6 shows the bag 2 which combines the bag body 10 and the pouch 50, Fig. 6(A) is a view showing the main surface 50A of the pouch 50 with the transparent portion 60 exposed through the through-hole 40, Fig. 6(B) is a view showing the opaque main surface 50B of the pouch 50 exposed through the through-hole 40, and Fig. 7 is a view of the storage space S viewed from diagonally above with the cover 20 opened. Note that Fig. 7 omits the detailed shape of the zipper 54. Also, Figs. 6 and 7 show the shoulder strap 25 shown in Fig. 1 removed.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 6(A), if the pouch 50 is housed in a pouch housing section with the main surface 50A having the transparent portion 60 of the pouch 50 facing the through-hole 40, the goods GD inside the pouch 50 can be seen from the outside through the through-hole 40 and the transparent portion 60 of the pouch body 10. In contrast, as shown in FIG. 6(B), if the pouch 50 is housed in a pouch housing section with the opaque main surface 50B, which is larger than the through-hole 40 of the pouch 50, facing the through-hole 40, only the opaque main surface 50B is exposed through the through-hole 40, so the goods inside the pouch 50 are completely hidden from view. In this way, the user can expose or hide the goods GD depending on the situation.

[0037] 6(A) and 6(B), main surfaces 50A and 50B of pouch 50 are larger than the opening area of through-hole 40 and have an area that covers through-hole 40 when facing directly opposite through-hole 40. Therefore, peripheral edge 48 of pouch 50 is engaged with frame 41 that surrounds through-hole 40 in bag body 10, preventing pouch 50 from slipping out of through-hole 40. Furthermore, this embodiment has a means for solving the new problem of "pouch 50 slipping out of through-hole 40" that arises when through-hole 40 is provided. That is, as shown in Fig. 7, a ring-shaped member 52 is partially connected to pouch 50. This ring-shaped member 52 is capable of bending toward partition 37. In response to this, a connecting member 29 is provided to the upper part of partition 37, with one end 29A fixed thereto and the other end 29B detachably connected thereto.

[0038] Thus, by passing the other end 29B of connecting member 29 through the loop of ring-shaped member 52 while it is separated from partition portion 37 and then connecting it to partition portion 37, connecting member 29 and ring-shaped member 52 can be connected (a part of ring-shaped member 52 is sandwiched between partition portion 37 and connecting member 29). This allows pouch 50 to be fixed in pouch accommodating portion 38. When removing pouch 50 from pouch accommodating portion 38, connecting member 36 such as a hook is detached as shown by the dash-dotted line with the other end 29B of connecting member 29 on the left side of FIG. 7 raised, and then separating the other end 29B of connecting member 29 from partition portion 37. This releases the connection between connecting member 29 and ring-shaped member 52, and pouch 50 can be removed from pouch accommodating portion 38 as shown by the dash-dotted line in FIG. 7. In this way, the pouch 50 can be placed in the pouch storage section 38 and fixed therein, or released from this fixed state and removed, and as shown in Figures 6(A) and 6(B), the user can invert the pouch 50 depending on the situation and switch between using the main surface 50A and the main surface 50B of the pouch 50 exposed through the through hole 40.

[0039] Furthermore, if someone tries to insert their hand through through-hole 40 and pull the pouch, it is expected that they will pull downward. Therefore, connecting member 29 and ring-shaped member 52 are arranged above pouch 50 and partition 37. Furthermore, connecting member 29 connected to partition 37 is arranged on the surface opposite to through-hole 40 (the surface toward the front torso) so as not to interfere with putting pouch 50 into pouch storage section 38.

[0040] Next, a modified example of the above-described embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 8. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a bag 90 according to the modified example of Fig. 6(B), in which the opaque main surface 50B is exposed through the through-hole 40. In this figure, parts with the same reference numerals as Figs. 1 to 7 have the same configuration, so redundant explanations will be omitted and the following explanation will focus on the differences. The bag 90 in FIG. 8 differs from the bag 2 described above in that the bag 90 has a structure for making the through-holes 40 formed in the bag body 10 less noticeable.

[0041] That is, as described above, the opaque main surface 50B of the pouch 50 is more flexible than the frame 41 of the bag body 10. Therefore, when the pouch 50 is filled with goods and inflated, the main surface 50B and the frame 41 easily adhere to each other, making the through-holes 40 less noticeable. Furthermore, in the bag 90 shown in FIG. 8 , the frame 41 and the opaque main surface 50B of the pouch 50 have similar colors and / or patterns. This creates a sense of unity between the frame 41 and the pouch's main surface 50B, making the inner periphery of the through-hole 40 at their boundary less noticeable. Preferably, both the color and the pattern are similar, and the frame 41 and the opaque main surface 50B should have as fine a pattern as possible. While the pattern shown in FIG. 8 is a fine polka dot pattern, more complex patterns, such as camouflage or crocodile patterns, are more preferable.

[0042] Although the above describes exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. For example, in the above embodiment, the loop-shaped member 52 is connected to the pouch 50 and the connecting member 29 is connected to the divider 37. However, the connecting member 29 may be provided on the pouch 50 and the loop-shaped member 52 may be provided on the divider 37. Furthermore, the pouch 50 may be thicker, with the transparent main surface and the opaque main surface orthogonal to each other. Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the opening 30 of the bag body 10 and the opening 19 of the pouch storage portion 38 are formed at the top, respectively. However, the opening 30 may be formed on the side of the bag body 10 and the opening 19 on the side of the pouch storage portion 38, allowing the pouch 50 to be inserted from the side.
