A moisture retaining pocket towel includes a water retaining mechanism having an absorbing layer, a base layer and an outer layer. The water retaining mechanism is divided into a first half portion and a second half portion which is capable to be folded in half to move between a folding position and an actuating position. The moisture retaining pocket towel also has an outer rim being jointed by an upper portion rim and a lower portion rim encasing around an outer edge of the water retaining mechanism for retaining moisture. In folding position, the water retaining mechanism is folded in half and the exposure of the absorbing layer to the outside environment is minimized for retaining moisture. In addition, magnetic elements are used to retain the folding position.

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.

An insulating device can include a body assembly and a lid assembly where an insulating layer is connected to both the body assembly and the lid assembly. An aperture with a closure is formed between the body assembly and lid assembly to form a storage compartment. An insulating tab may be formed from a portion of the insulating layer and an inner liner of the body assembly to help insulate the closure region. In addition, a first magnetic element may be secured within the insulating tab that may engage a second magnetic element secured within the lid assembly.

A case for a portable electronic device includes a housing, a lid, and a hinge rotatably coupling the lid to the housing such that the lid is operable between an open position and a closed position. The hinge includes a first multipole magnet coupled to the lid such that the first multipole magnet rotates with the lid. A second multipole magnet is coupled to the housing and is arranged coaxially with the first multipole magnet and such that the first multipole magnet and the lid rotate relative to the second multipole magnet. The lid is unstable between the open and closed positions, such that, between the open position and the closed position, the lid is biased toward either the open position or the closed position depending on an angle of orientation of the lid relative to the housing.

An electronic device case is provided. The electronic device case includes a first body, a first connection part coupled to the first body, a second body, a second connection part coupled to the second body and movably connected to the first connection part, an accommodating space formed by the first body and the second body, a first magnet fixed on the first connection part and including a first portion, and a second magnet fixed on the second connection part and including a second portion having a same polarity as the first portion. The electronic device case is transitioned, by movement of the second connection part with respect to the first connection part, to a first state in which the accommodating space is opened, and a second state in which the accommodating space is closed.

A case for storing articles includes a base including a lower body having a first hemispherical side surface, a flat external bottom surface, and an interior cavity. The base has a platform secured to the lower body within the interior cavity. The platform includes first and second receptacles for retaining first and second articles, respectively, at first and second heights relative to the external bottom surface, respectively. The first height is different from the second height. The case includes a lid coupled to the base such that the lid is movable relative to the base between an open state and a closed state. The lid includes an upper body having a second hemispherical side surface and a dome-shaped internal ceiling surface defining a storage chamber for receiving tops of the articles when the lid is in the closed state.

According to an embodiment, a carrier with retractable wheels comprises a main body including a storage space and an inlet hole formed in a bottom to be open or closed by a sliding plate and a moving unit having a body pivotably provided in the inlet hole and a wheel attached to an end of the body. When the inlet hole is closed by the sliding plate, the moving unit is pivoted up, the wheel is supported by the sliding plate to be positioned inside the inlet hole and, when the inlet hole is open, the moving unit is pivoted down to stick out of the inlet hole.

A magnetic sealing closure, comprising: a. a first flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; b. a second flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; wherein said sealing closure comprises membranes connectable to said first strip, and a second membrane connectable to said second strip, such that said plurality of magnetic elements of said second strip are embedded within said plurality of cavities between said second strip and said second membrane; when said first and second strips and are brought together from the side of said first and second membranes, magnetic elements of said first and said second strips magnetically attract each other, such that a sealing is provided.

A configuration of magnets for coupling an accessory to an article of clothing, including a first plurality of magnets arranged within a casing with an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface. Each of the first plurality of magnets having a first magnetic polarity and a second magnetic polarity opposite the first magnetic polarity. Each of the first plurality of magnets positioned within the casing with a minimum separation between each of the first plurality of magnets. Each of the first plurality of magnets oriented such that the first magnetic polarity emanates from the upper surface of the casing. An article of clothing including a portion in which the casing is embedded.

A mechanical wallet or cardholder can be opened using one hand by sliding a top or second plate along rails parallel to a bottom or first plate. A card arm forces cards in the cardholder (i.e., located between the first and second plates) out a second end of the cardholder in a fanned or stepped fashion. A magnet in the card arm and in a first end of the frame (opposite the second end of the cardholder and frame) cooperate to return and retain the card arm and first plate in the closed position. A card lock at the second end of the frame retains cards in the cardholder when the cardholder is in the closed position and allows the cards to be pushed from the second end of the cardholder by the card arm when the second plate is moved to the open position.
