Foldable frame device with spool
11987974 · 2024-05-21 ·

A portable expandable device with a contracting mechanism which allows for many forms of recreational products and structures to be expanded, reinforced in the expanded shape, and then contracted easily to regain its portable form. The expansion means is exercised by the use of at least one of the following, resiliently extending, unfolding, inflating, as to become an expanding form which can then be easily retracted to the redeployed form. The retraction mechanism reverses the expansion process utilizing a mechanism which sequentially exerts the forces needed in the proper locations in order to ensure proper contraction. Disclosed embodiments utilized supplemental structural reinforcement of the expanded form through the use of joints, releasable interlocks, latching mechanisms, air bladders, to ensure the form is stable and usable. The objective being a stable structure with a rapid and easy deployment and a supplemental retraction means as to be easily transportable.

Combination bag, mat, and flotation device
11986076 · 2024-05-21 ·

Disclosed is a system for a combination bag, mat, and flotation device. The system includes an elongated mat having an external surface, internal surface, a mat section first side and second side, and a mat section first side and second side. A pair of flotation devices are attached to the mat section first side and second side. Each flotation device has an internal air compartment, inflation nozzle, and attachment element, and when inflated, allow the mat to be used as a flotation device. A first fastener being in attachment proximate to the mat section first side and a second fastener being in attachment proximate to the mat section second side. The first fastener and second fastener are configured to removably mate with each other. When the mat is folded so that the first fastener and second fastener are mated and the zipper is sealed, the mat forms a bag configuration.
