The present invention is generally directed to a vertically expanding tote bag or purse, formed from a substantially rigid bottom panel, an internal telescopic support connected to the bottom panel, a collapsible pocket connected to the solid bottom panel and the internal support, the collapsible pocket disposed such that it creates a collapsible cavity or pocket within the collapsible material when the internal support is telescoped into an extended position; and a non-collapsible pocket formed from non-collapsible side walls that form a cavity or pocket, the non-collapsible pocket attached to the internal support.

A container, of the type of trunks, suitcases, trolley cases, and the like, which includes at least one first half-shell, which can be closed at a free edge thereof by a second half-shell, when the second half-shell is arranged in a first configuration, in order to define an internal compartment that is designed to accommodate objects. The second half-shell can move from the first configuration to at least one second configuration, of free access to the compartment, and vice versa. The first half-shell has a door arranged, in a first arrangement of use, to close an opening that is provided along at least one first side wall of the first half-shell and is such as to define an additional, independent, access to the compartment. The door moves between the first arrangement and at least one second arrangement, in which the door is at least partially distanced from the opening, in order to allow free access to the compartment, even when the second half-shell is arranged in the first configuration.

A rolling tote bag including a collapsible container body made of a foldable assembly of fabric panels, including a bottom panel and side panels, that jointly define an inner storage volume when in an expanded state. The rolling tote bag further includes a rolling support assembly to provide rolling support for the collapsible container body in the expanded state, the rolling support assembly including a support plate and a plurality of caster wheels provided on an underside of the support plate. The collapsible container body further includes a retaining structure formed of one or more fabric panels, which retaining structure is provided underneath the bottom panel and is configured to securely hold the support plate outside of the inner storage volume against an underside of the bottom panel.

A removable caster system includes a roller, a roller frame and a roller seat, the roller being positioned on the frame via a horizontal axis, the frame being inserted into the vertical shaft hole of the seat through the vertical shaft to form a detachable position; wherein a chute is installed on the upper surface with a trapezoidal stopper; a wire retainer is placed in the chute and is controlled by the movement of its narrowing section or the vertical axis to achieve removable function.

A closure mechanism for locking a lid of a storage receptacle, such as a portable cooler, in a closed position. The closure mechanism includes an elongated rail attached to an outer surface of the storage receptacle. The closure mechanism further includes a flexible member having a first end fixedly attached to the lid of the storage receptacle. Disposed on the second end of the flexible member is a catch having a first tab and a second tab. The first tab and the second tab are each configured and dimensioned to selectively engage channels in the elongated rail.

A luggage case includes expansible sleeping compartment apparatus. The expansible sleeping compartment apparatus comprises at least two housing members which define a volume when closed together for receiving therein or thereon an expansible sleeping compartment in an unexpanded state. The expansible sleeping compartment apparatus is attached to at least one of said housing members. In an expanded state the surfaces of expansible sleeping compartment defines an enclosure with an opening for receiving a person therein.

A portable insulated cooler having a seat and a hinged mount that secures a set of wheels to the cooler provides easy cooled transport of food and beverages, along with a cooling agent such as ice. The hinged mount secures an axle, to which the wheels are mounted, underneath the cooler in a first position for transport, and is releasable so that in a second position, the wheels rest alongside the cooler, permitting the bottom of the cooler to completely rest on the ground. A seat is rotatably affixed to the top of the cooler, providing a long-term and movable sitting location, and may be releasable from the top of the cooler for easy stowage and transport. A bottom portion of a swivel mounting the seat to the cooler may be formed on the top of the cooler as a raised circular projection with an undercut reducing the cooler height.

A releasable wheel assembly includes a bracket having multiple bosses, each boss including a hole that receives an axle. A pair of wheels are mounted on the axle and a pair of locking caps fit over respective ends of the axle, the locking caps each including a clip for engaging the axle at a circumferential groove to prevent movement of the locking cap along the axle. The wheel assembly can be mounted to a carry bag or other storage unit by mounting the bracket to the storage unit, where the wheels and axle can be easily removed from the bracket.

A buckle structure includes a buckling base and a buckling shaft. An axial hole is defined in the buckling base, an axial channel extending along an axial direction of the axial hole and a circumferential channel extending along a circumferential direction of the axial hole are defined on an internal surface of the axial hole, an opening is defined at an end of the axial channel and the other end of the axial channel communicates with the circumferential channel, the axial channel is provided with a movable block blocking between the axial channel and the circumferential channel and able to selectively retreat from the axial channel and the circumferential channel. The buckling shaft is inserted in the axial hole; a latch protruding from a lateral surface of an end of the buckling shaft is able to move through the opening and along the axial channel and the circumferential channel.
