A maternity bag with a bag body defining an outer surface and a changing mat configured to be detachable from the outer surface of the body. The changing mat is optionally made of a same material as the bag body and/or has the same texture or color as the outer surface of the bag body, and is dimensioned to at least partially wrap around the outer surface of the bag body so as to be fully integrated and indistinguishable. The function and the look of the changing mat is concealed as it is integrated to the bag when attached. A method for changing babies using the bag is also provided. The changing mat being wrapped around the bag, it reinforces the body's structure and liberates space inside the bag. The invention provides an elegant and stylishly fashionable look to the bag. The invention also concerns the changing mat configured to be affixed to a diaper bag.

The purse with concealable compartments is an apparatus that houses a variety of items. A first compartment and a second compartment are defined as the apparatus includes an outer layer, a folding edge, at least one flap, at least one elongated fastener, and a plurality of fasteners. The first compartment houses a variety of items such as money, cards, and so on, which are readily viewable. The second compartment houses preferably concealed items such as feminine products. The folding edge laterally traverses across the outer layer such that the outer layer surrounds the variety of items. The at least one flap is hingedly connected with the outer layer thereby concealing the preferably concealed items with the plurality of fasteners. The at least one elongated fastener secures the items within the apparatus as the at least one elongated fastener is perimetrically connected across an inner surface of the outer layer.

A translucent reconfigurable bag designed to fold into a bag from a flattened member. The translucent reconfigurable bag includes a planar member having an inner side and an outer side, and composed of a plurality of panels, wherein each panel is translucent. The outer side and the inner side of the planar member each have at least one fastener with the two fasteners designed to secure to one another. The inner fastener and outer fastener are designed to allow the plurality of panels to fold and affix to one another, thereby forming an interior volume having an opening in communication with the interior volume. A light is disposed on one of the panels and is designed to activate when spoken to. In this way, a user is able to create a bag from an easily transportable planar member and quickly find items inside said bag.

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 fully open position (protective mat). A larger version for the container is also described with a portion of the inner liner folded in the closed position.

An apparatus includes a travel luggage bag. The travel luggage bag includes an elongated flexible foldable panel having spaced-apart elongated lateral panel sides. Spaced-apart flexible containers are permanently attached, at least in part, to the elongated flexible foldable panel. The spaced-apart flexible containers are configured to receive and securely store a personal travel item, such as a cosmetics item and/or a clothing item.

A soft-sided insulated container assembly has a generally box-shaped form like a school lunch box, having a main body and a lid. The lid is formed of one of the largest panels of the box-structure, and is joined to the main body of the box by a hinge that lets the lid lie flat next to the main body when the box is open. The inside face of the lid then defines a work surface on which to place objects such as foodstuffs and beverages. The work surface may be formed in a substantially rigid molded stiffener member, and may be divided into sub-regions with raised retainers to discourage sliding of objects where not precisely level. The container assembly may include a rigid internal liner with which the lid may mate zipperlessly. The mating portion of the lid may be formed in the same rigid member as the work surface.

An apparatus for changing a baby including a plurality of sections, connected together and configured to be placed in an open state, an assembled state, and a closed state; wherein in the open state, each of the plurality of sections lies in substantially the same plane, and none of the plurality of sections overlaps any of the other of the plurality of sections; wherein in the assembled state, a first section of the plurality of sections is temporarily fixed at substantially a right angle with respect to a second section of the plurality of sections; wherein in the closed state, the first section overlaps the second section; and wherein at least one of the first and second sections is padded. The apparatus may include a U-shaped strap connected to and used to pick up the plurality of sections, and a means for holding plurality of sections in the closed state.

IFAK assemblies may include an outer shell having a first outer shell end, a second outer shell end, an outer shell interior extending between the first outer shell end and the second outer shell end, a first shell opening at the first outer shell end and a second shell opening at the second outer shell end. An interior sleeve may be removably deployed in the outer shell interior of the outer shell. The interior sleeve may be selectively removable from a selected one of the first shell opening and the second shell opening. A plurality of first aid items may be carried by the interior sleeve. A left tourniquet sleeve may be carried by a first side of the outer shell. The left tourniquet sleeve may have a left sleeve interior and a left tourniquet retrieval opening corresponding in position to the first outer shell end of the outer shell. A left tourniquet may be deployed in place in the left sleeve interior of the left tourniquet sleeve. The left tourniquet may be selectively retrievable from the left tourniquet sleeve through the left tourniquet retrieval opening. A right tourniquet sleeve may be carried by a second side of the outer shell opposite the first side. The right tourniquet sleeve may have a right sleeve interior and a right tourniquet retrieval opening corresponding in position to the second outer shell end of the outer shell. A right tourniquet may be deployed in place in the right sleeve interior of the right tourniquet sleeve. The right tourniquet may be selectively retrievable from the right tourniquet sleeve through the right tourniquet retrieval opening.

An office supply organizer, for providing a compact housing for holding various office supply items in a secure environment. The organizer includes a main body platform substantially having a shape of a quadrangle having four peripheral edges, an underside and a top side. The main body platform further includes four distinct quadrants divided by seams. At least one pocket is attached to the top side of at least one of the four adjacent quadrants. The main body platform is foldable in a first direction and is reversible, and foldable in a second direction. At least one a closure is coupled to the main body platform and is configured to retain the main body platform in at least one of a first folded configuration and a second folded configuration.

A backpack comprising a first lateral wall including at least one fastener disposed along a first peripheral front edge, a second lateral wall including at least one further fastener disposed along a second peripheral front edge, and a front flap pivotably movable between a closed position and an open position and having at least one third fastener disposed along at least a portion of a perimeter of the front flap, the at least one third fastener releasably engaging the at least one fastener and the at least one further fastener when the front flap is in a closed position.
