A rigging and rail attachment system facilitating innumerable configurations for attaching different types of backpackable equipment thereto. The rigging and rail attachment system includes rails connecting two portions of material and thereby forming a channel therebetween. The channel extends generally perpendicular to the two portions of material in a first direction. A webbing extends from a portion of the channel in a second direction away from the channel, and the webbing has one or more aperture attachment points for engaging any detachable fastener that can operatively associated with an opening, whereby various objects can be attached to the rigging and rail attachment system in various configurations.

The present invention provides a body-worn structure, and more particularly a body-worn structure that applies a containing structure to the body of an animal, including a person or pet, and uses a multifunctional structure for use by a user in various different circumstances. For example, the structure can be applied as a body protective device in an emergency situation in outdoor activities, such as riding a motorcycle, mountain-climbing, skiing, hand gliding, paragliding, and boating, when the body-worn structure is applied as a protective clothing, an airbag, airbag clothing, etc. Moreover, the body-worn structure is an all-in-one functional device, including use when taking a pet outdoors, when the structure can be applied as a pet knapsack, pet weatherproof clothing, pet carrier bag, and a fixing device for a pet droppings collection bag.

A case for an optical instrument is provided. The case has a body with a bottom and two pairs of oppositely disposed side walls connected to the body forming a cavity. The case also includes a lid having a top cover and two pairs of oppositely disposed side portions, each of which corresponds with and overlaps a corresponding side wall of the body when the lid is in a closed position. A first pair of the two pairs of side walls each includes an elastic chord which connects the given side wall to the corresponding side portion of the lid.

A medical backpack for storing medical supplies and medical equipment is disclosed. The medical backpack can be used by medics working in rural or remote areas that are not accessible by car and where access to hospitals and medical supplies is limited or non-existent. The medical backpack is light enough to carry long distances and comprised of a number of different compartments that are flexible to equip with various supplies for specific needs and circumstances.

A segmented bag with a single continuous strap or dual or more straps. A duffle bag with two segments secured together with diametrically opposed longitudinal zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners and/or magnets. A multi-segmented bag with two semi-cylindrical segments secured together with longitudinal zippers and each semi-cylindrical segment having quarter sections secured together with an annular zipper. The single continuous strap functions as a hand grip or a shoulder strap and maintains the connectivity of the duffle bag segments even when separated. The dual strap permits the releasably secured bag segments to be separated completely.

Case for containing an item and method of manufacture comprising: a first panel having a perimeter edge and at least one hinge for folding the first panel. A second panel having a perimeter edge and at least one hinge for folding the second panel. A side panel. A first fastener configured to attach the side panel to the perimeter edge of the first panel. A second fastener configured to attach the side panel to the perimeter edge of the second panel. Method of manufacture of a layered material comprising the steps of: placing a substrate between a first and a second layer of self-reinforced polypropylene (srPP). Bonding the layers of srPP and substrate by: stitching, or riveting through the first layer of srPP, the substrate and the second layer of srPP; or gluing the first layer of srPP, the substrate and the second layer of srPP together.

A soft-side container is sized to fit inside larger luggage such as a suitcase. It has a peripheral zipper that aids in compressing the contents of the container when it is loaded, such as with clothing, thereby tending to take less space in the suitcase. It also has a suspension system permitting the container to be hung from a hanger rod, or from another container of the same type, in a cascade of shelves. To aid in this function, the container has an expanding side wall, and also a form-preserving spreader that tends to cause the container to hold itself in a generally planar configuration to function more effectively as a shelf.
