An expandable and collapsible pouch for accommodating an orthodontic appliance while not is use. The pouch may be selectively and repeatedly coupled to a variety of objects. After selectively coupling the pouch to a desired object, the user opens the pouch by expanding at least one collapsible wall or side. The user then removes their orthodontic appliance, inserts it into the open pouch, and then closes the pouch by letting the pouch contract. When the orthodontic appliance is needed again, the user removes the appliance from the pouch and lets the pouch contract into its original position flush against the surface of the object. The pouch is coupled to the object via a magnet disposed within the pouch that is configured to interact with the surface of the object. The pouch also includes a second magnet which assists the pouch maintain a closed position while an appliance is inserted therein.

The invention relates to a curable composition, containing (A) at least one polyorganosiloxane, which has at least one hydroxy group bound to a silicon atom, (B) at least one silane of the formula (1):
Si(R.sup.1).sub.m(R.sup.2).sub.n(R.sup.3).sub.4−(m+n)  (1), as defined herein, (C) at least one aminosilane, and (D) at least one tin compound,
wherein the composition is free of epoxysilane and the molar ratio of the aminosilane to the tin compound is 1:1 to 50:1, as well as to the preparation and use thereof.

The invention relates to a sanitary pack device having a plurality of compartments therein. More specifically, the device is comprised of a first compartment located on a front side, wherein the first compartment is accessible from at least one end of the compartment and from a front window. The first compartment is meant to hold a package of sanitary wipes, wherein individual wipes from the package may be dispensed through the front window without having to remove the package from the compartment and without having to reposition the closure mechanism located along the end opening. The device also comprise additional compartments, some having closure mechanisms and some without closure mechanisms, and a strap mechanism for removably attaching the device to an individual.

A survival backpack system includes a main bag, and a pair of shoulder straps for mounting the main bag on a user's shoulders. The system includes a plurality of gear packs, all the same size, and each containing a different type of survival gear. The main bag forms a plurality of gear compartments, each slightly larger than each of the plurality of gear packs, each of the plurality of gear compartments being accessible through an opening in the top panel. A hydration compartment is accessible through an opening in the bottom panel, the hydration compartment being sized and shaped to receive a hydration pack therein.

An add-on medicine carrier comprising a container, a lid structure and an attachment mechanism. The container has at least one sidewall coupled adjacent one end to a base wall to define a chamber sized to receive at least one dose of a medication. The lid structure is configured to detachably mate adjacent to an opposing end the one or more sidewalls. The attachment mechanism is on an outer surface of the base wall to detachably secure the container to a surface of a mobile device.

A backpack (11) provides a protective utility vestment including a panel of armor material fully stored beneath the openable cover (22) an anterior chamber within the backpack, obscuring its existence. A pair of hand-graspable pull-tabs (31) connected to opposite lateral sides of the vestment allow rapid deployment of the vestment over the user's head and into position on the user's chest. The pull-tabs can be obscured on the shoulder supports (14,15) of the backpack until used. Decoy bands (43) on the shoulder supports can further enhance the obscuring effect. The pull-tabs can secure to the hip support pads (16,17) to further secure the vestment on the user's chest. A bottom deployed utility caddy can be stowed within a hidden medial compartment.

Quick release assembly comprises a bag and a material organizer. The bag defines an opening flap and a fastener. The fastener includes a first fastening element provided on the opening flap and a second fastening element provided on a side wall of the bag. The second fastening element removably couples with the first fastening element. The material organizer is received within the bag and defines a pull tab that extends from the material organizer to outside of the bag. The pull tab defines an aperture sized for the first fastening element to pass therethrough for detachably coupling with the second fastening element to form a closed configuration of the bag, thereby securing the material organizer within the bag. Pulling the pull tab detaches the coupling between the first and second fastening elements.

The present invention relates in general to portable first aid kits and, in particular, to a low profile first aid kit that is adaptable for a quick release from a carrier and can be easily stored and carried by a person. The design of the disclosed release system allows for the first aid kit to be released with one hand from a carrier with mounting capabilities. Additionally, the medical kit includes a dual purpose carrier strap that can either be wound around the first aid kit and operable to torque the kit for storage purposes when in the closed position, or used to carry the kit in the open position until it can be secured and subsequently stored.

A mask storing device comprises a storing unit, a hook member, a stopper portion, a positioning member, and a flexible stopper member for storing a mask. A method to store a mask, which functions as a safe and hygienicway to allow users to store and take out the mask safely by only holding ear loops without touching the body of the mask.

This disclosure includes a description of luggage devices configured to provide convenient access to sanitizers. The luggage device can include a receptacle having an opening to receive a sanitizer container therein. The luggage device can include a support that is translated or moved within the receptacle by way of a push-to-release mechanism. The push-to-release mechanism can translate or move the support between a deployed position in which the sanitizer container is at least partially exposed outside the receptacle and a stowed position in which the sanitizer container is disposed inside the receptacle. The luggage device can include a dispenser that enables the user to dispense sanitizer from a sanitization container in the receptacle.
