In an exemplary embodiment, a rear side of the tubular section is provided with at least one compartment for storing shoulder straps and for allowing the shoulder straps to be readily removed from the compartment to allow the user to carry the luggage in the form of a backpack.

A device having a first container and a second container that is convertible between a primary configuration and a secondary configuration. Each container having a primary face (with primary access structure for accessing the interior of the container when the device is in the primary configuration) and a secondary face (with secondary access structure for accessing the interior of the container when the device is in the secondary configuration). A first mateable half and a second mateable half of an openable-closeable connection are connectable to secure the containers in either a primary configuration or a secondary configuration. Preferably, contents within the containers may remain during conversion between the primary configuration and the secondary configuration. A method for converting a device between the primary configuration and the secondary configuration.

A training device and method for baseball, softball, and other sports provides a plurality of fixed or adjustable bump elements on a transportable support surface so the device can be easily stored, transported, and positioned for hop drills and other training routines. In one embodiment, the device is a flexible one-piece mat or other support surface with a plurality of integral bump elements. The mat may be rolled for storage, transported with a carry arm strap, unrolled into a desired position on a field or indoor practice area, and then used to deflect balls that are rolled over it. After use, the device rolls up easily for transport and storage.

A power pad and a strip strap are disclosed. The power pad includes an array of batteries contained within a flexible, bendable housing. The housing in structured and configured to be draped over a user’s shoulder and to remain operational after a substantial number of flexing back and forth between curved and flat.

The present invention discloses a back pack for a mobile device user. A back pack for a mobile device user according to the present invention comprises a body; a support board adjacently facing a front side of the body in parallel; a hinge, being provided on the front side or on a lateral side of the body, for pivotally coupling the support board and the body; and a multiple positioning fix unit to fix the support board at an open position, wherein the support board is pivotally coupled to the body by the hinge and the multiple positioning fix unit so as to adjust an open angle of the support board.

A convertible carrying case having a first container and a second container that is convertible between a primary configuration and a secondary configuration. Each container having a primary face (with primary access structure for accessing the interior of the container when the convertible carrying case is in the primary configuration) and a secondary face (with secondary access structure for accessing the interior of the container when the convertible carrying case is in the secondary configuration). A first matable half and a second matable half of an openable-closeable connection are connectable to secure the containers in either a primary configuration or a secondary configuration. Preferably, contents within the containers may remain during conversion between the primary configuration and the secondary configuration. A method for converting a convertible carrying case between the primary configuration and the secondary configuration.

A multi-functional, convertible blanket that can be used in a blanket configuration or in a wrap configuration. An insulated blanket panel retains first and second hand-receiving structures, such as insulated pockets. Each pocket has a secondary opening between an entrance and an end such that a hand can be selectively retained within the pocket or passed at least partially through the secondary opening. A connected location disposed along the secondary opening can separate the secondary opening into first and second segments for separately receiving the thumbs and fingers of the wearer. An outer wall of each pocket can be formed by first and second overlapping panels with the secondary opening comprising a passage therebetween. An integrated storage pouch with first and second shells is fixed to the blanket panel for storing articles when in a retracted configuration and for storing the blanket panel when in an extended configuration.

A load-bearing strap with an inductive charging system is an apparatus that allows a user to charge a portable device, handsfree. The apparatus includes at least one strap, at least one pocket, a plurality of channels, and an inductive charging system. The inductive charging system is safely housed within the at least one strap as the at least one strap includes at least one charging chamber, a controller chamber, and a power source chamber. The at least one strap connects a bag about a user and houses the inductive charging system. The at least one pocket connects a portable device with the at least one strap. The plurality of channels connects the at least one charging chamber, the controller chamber, and the power source chamber with each other. The inductive charging system inductively charges a portable device with at least one set of coils, a microcontroller, and a power source.

A yoga rope with anti-slip structures includes a rope body, a first fastener assembly and at least one anti-slip structure. The rope body has a first operation end, a main portion and a second operation end orderly arranged in an extension direction. The first fastener assembly fixed to the first operation end is used for tying the main portion. The at least one anti-slip structure is attached to the rope body.
