A unique flexible container combination comprises a viscoelastomeric thermoset overlay disposed upon a flexible supportive base. Desirably, the viscoelastomeric thermoset overlay possesses exceptional adhesive, cohesive and releasability properties. In some embodiments, the flexible container combination can also exhibit antipathogenic, cleansability and/or reusability properties. The flexible container combination can maintain an adhered stowable item in an immobilized position until intentionally removed therefrom by a user. In some embodiments, the flexible container combination can be folded or rolled into a rolled-up configuration.

A satchel and wallet combination assembly includes a container that is flexible and includes a perimeter wall having an upper end open to access an interior of the container. The container may be manipulated into a folded condition wherein the container is folded multiple times upon itself and into a deployed condition wherein the container is unfolded. A wallet is attached to a front wall of the container such that a top edge of the wallet is positioned adjacent to the upper end and the first lateral edge of the container. The wallet is positionable in the container when the container is in the deployed condition. The container is abuttable against the wallet when the container is in the folded condition such that the container has a length and width substantially equal to a length and width of the wallet.

A collapsible travel case includes a plurality of panels that are each non-removably secured to at least one other panel of the plurality of panels. Each panel of a subset of the panels may be removably secured to another panel of the subset of panels such that the plurality of panels define a substantially cuboid shape. A top panel may define a top opening with a closure mechanism. A bottom panel may be foldable and insertable within the top opening with other panels of the plurality of panels folded between the top panel and the bottom panel. The bottom panel may include a retractable stiffening element. Panels may define openings through which flaps secured to other panels may insert and be secured within using fastening material.

A foldable and deformable handbag includes a bag body with an upward opening. The bag body includes a left bag wall, a right bag wall, a front bag wall, a rear bag wall, and a bottom bag wall. The front bag wall and the rear bag wall are symmetrically arranged and include a first folding line along a height direction thereof. A first movable connecting piece is arranged on one side of each first folding line. The left bag wall and the right bag wall are symmetrically arranged and include a second movable connecting piece. Each first movable connecting piece is connected with a corresponding second movable connecting piece when the bag body is folded along each first folding line. Main handles are arranged the front bag wall and the rear bag wall. Bottom plate for supporting the bottom bag wall are arranged on the bottom bag wall.

A containment device that converts between three different configurations or forms and includes a multilayer base. The forms include: 1) a mat or work surface that has a raised lip or edge structure that contains items on the mat or work surface; 2) a small volume bag or flexible container for holding the items inside, where the lip is gathered or compacted, e.g., by a drawstring, to form an annulus from the lip; and 3) a larger-volume, cylindrical-shaped bag, which may be used as a shopping bag. The cylindrical-shaped bag may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the mat configuration or the drawstring bag configuration, and the lip may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the cylindrical-shaped bag configuration.

A carry container is interchangeable between a closed position and an open position, wherein the container converts into a protective mat, such as a placemat, and becomes a barrier against germs. In one embodiment, the carry container includes an outer shell including a bottom panel and four side panels extending from the bottom panel and being configured to releasably attach to each of the two neighboring side panels using a fastener to form a container for carrying one or more items, such as food items. An inner lining formed by a generally square sheet is attached to an inner facing side of the outer shell and defines the protective mat when the outer shell is in an open position and flat on a surface. The container can be easily converted between the closed position (lunch box) and open position (protective mat).

The cylindrical-shaped bag may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the mat configuration or the drawstring bag configuration, and the lip may be stored between the layers of the base when the device is in the cylindrical-shaped bag configuration.

A convertible backpack that can be used as an edge protection mat to protect ropes against abrasion and includes a flexible mat or sheet that can be configured into a pack and carried on the back of a user to carry equipment, clothing, or other gear. A pair of rope protection members are affixed to the outer surface of the sheet for carrying the pack and are easily removable for use alone or in combination with the flexible sheet to further protect ropes.

Collapsible stand to support and exhibit an article includes a stand portion, two forward legs and a rear leg. The legs engage a lower portion of a main body and splay outwardly in the form of a tripod. The main body provides support against which the article rests in leaning engagement. The legs each include: a floor support panel hingeably connected to the main body to support the bottom of the article; an exterior support panel hingeably connected to the floor support panel and projecting from the floor to the main body to resist the opposing force created by the load of the article on the stand; a shelf panel hingeably connected to the exterior support panel to support the load of the article on the stand; and a shelf support panel hingeably connected to the shelf panel to support the shelf panel against the main body.
