A modular personal storage system can include a personal storage container that can include a first outer wall including a paramagnetic metal or a diamagnetic metal, a second outer wall including the paramagnetic metal or the diamagnetic metal, where the second outer wall is positioned opposite to and spaced apart from the first outer wall to define a container volume between the first outer wall and the second outer wall. At least two permanent magnetic elements can be spaced apart from one another and at least partially located within the container volume.

A device for storing at least one object which is designed for wireless communication, in particular for storing one or more debit cards, includes a hollow chamber in which the object can be positioned and which is at least partially shielded from electromagnetic waves of a surrounding environment by a shielding layer. In order to place an object arranged in the device in a non-readable state from a readable state in a particularly simple manner, it is provided that an external antenna for wirelessly communicating with equipment arranged in an environment surrounding the device and an internal antenna for wirelessly communicating with an object arranged in the hollow chamber are provided, wherein the internal antenna can be electrically connected to the external antenna in a reversible manner via an electric switch in order to enable a wireless communication between the equipment and the object.

There is disclosed a compact wallet, comprising at least two rigid plates at least one having a channel into which an encircling elastic band is interposed to bias the at least two rigid plates inwardly and securely hold the card-like contents while providing elastic volume therebetween while allowing freedom for the dynamic extension and contraction of the band over the entire running length of the wallet. The wallet includes an auxiliary feature removably attached within the interior at least one of the at least two rigid plates interposed using a tang inserted into a recess formed inside the plate, the tang having a hook, the hook extending at an angle to the tang, the hook engaging an undercut of the recess to prevent inadvertent dislodgement of the auxiliary feature from the recess.

The invention relates to a holding device for cards and/or money, in particular to the use of U-shaped holding devices for credit cards. The invention relates to a holding device (100) for cards, money, or the like, comprising a first plate (101) and a second plate (102) with smaller dimensions than the first plate (101). According to the invention, the second plate (102) lies over the first plate (101) and is connected to the first plate (101) on at least two sides, and the second plate (102) has a region (102a) which tapers outwards on one side not connected to the first plate (101).

A protector includes a substrate and a first sheet of a first material supported by the substrate. The first sheet of a first material may be configured to be removed from the substrate and coupled to a casing for a collectable. A kit may include the protector and a first template. The template may have a body including at least one surface configured to guide an instrument to facilitate cutting the protector.

A two-sided hinged note comprises a generally planar sheet, an adhesive, and a hinge. The sheet has opposing front and back sides, both of which are suitable to be written upon at least in part. The adhesive, which may be pressure-sensitive and re-adherable, is on an adhesive area of the back side of the note and is capable of adhering to a surface of an item such that the sheet is flat against the surface thereby presenting the front side of the sheet facing outward from the surface. The hinge is proximate the adhesive area, wherein the hinge is operable to pivot approximately 180° to thereby present the back side of the sheet facing outward from the surface as a the sheet is approximately flat against the surface of the item.

A holder for receiving, storing and carrying photographic items such as cameras, printers, film packs or photographic prints. The holder has a front/distal case that is removably connected to a back/proximal case so that the two cases can be used together or separately. A multi-clip having a pair of open sections and a base member removably attaches the front case to the back case. A pair of side members guide the multi-clip into place to be received in a clip receiver. The cases are configured be used with various carrying devices that allow the user to carry the holder or one of the cases thereof. In one embodiment, the front case has a back section with a divider that defines separate areas for a film pack and prints and a front section that pivots to open or close the front case and allow access to the items.
