DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(9) As discussed above, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a container and more particularly to a container system.

(10) Generally speaking, the invention is a multipurpose container assembly comprising of at least two pieces, a container and a lid; the container having internal cavities of varying purposes. One cavity type is open and contained by the lid and used to mold and store a molded wax or soap bar or contain a separately molded wax bar or soap. The cavity may also be used to contain spare parts for relevant sporting activities or other products such as tobacco, candy, or coins. The second cavity type is not sealed by the lid. It may be vented through the outer wall of container and hold products intended to emit scent for the purpose of freshening. The lid comprises multiple items including a lid, a lace, fabric, or rope hinge attached to the container at one end and having an opening closing mechanism on the other end to close the container.

(11) Referring now more specifically to the drawings by numerals of reference, there is shown in FIGS. 1-5, various views of a container system 100. FIG. 1 shows a container system 100 during an in-use condition, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As illustrated, the container system 100 may include a container assembly 110 including a lid 120 having an attacher 128 and a container 130 having a second-cavity 134 (shown in FIG. 2 and not shown in FIG. 1) and a first-cavity 136. The container assembly 110 comprises the lid 120 and the container 130 in functional combination. The lid 120 comprises an attacher 128 and a female snap fastener 126. The container 130 comprises the second-cavity 134 and the first-cavity 136 in functional combination. The lid 120 may be removably couplable to and fit into the container 130. The second-cavity 134 comprises ventilated perforations 138 (shown in FIG. 2 and not shown in FIG. 1) to emit scents of a scented-item 10 (FIG. 4) contained within the second-cavity 134. The second-cavity 134 may be configured concentrically around the first-cavity 136 about an inside periphery of the container 130 and concentrically inside of the outer wall 131. The second-cavity 134 may comprise an inner volume suitable for removably containing at least one item that may include the scented-item 10 for providing air freshening via the ventilated perforations 138 (FIG. 2) for odor eliminating.

(12) FIG. 2 shows a rear perspective view of the container system 100 of FIG. 1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As above, the container system 100 may include a container assembly 110 including a lid 120 having an attacher 128 with a female snap fastener 126 and a container 130 having a second-cavity 134 and a first-cavity 136. A fastener may comprise a male snap-fastener 124. The attacher 128 may comprise a flexible rope, lace, fabric string, or other suitable fastening means. In a preferred embodiment the lid 120 comprises a first-aperture 160 and a second-aperture 162 for passing and looping the attacher 128 through the apertures and fastening the lid 120 to the container 130. The lid 120 is hingedly coupled to the container 130 via the attacher 128.

(13) FIG. 3 shows a front perspective view of the container system 100 of FIG. 1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As above, the container system 100 may include a container 130 supporting a male snap-fastener 124. When in a closed position, the male snap-fastener 124 can couple to the female snap-fastener 126. Male snap-fastener 124 is located on an outer wall 131 of the container 130. The second-cavity 134 and the first-cavity 136 comprise a cylindrical body. The container assembly 110 comprises customizable indicia. Indicia may include various designs for a plurality of activities and may aid the function of the present invention. The device may also use indicia to indicate ownership. The device may be manufactured in various shapes including a hockey puck. The color of the container, lid graphics, hinge design, and ventilated perforation 138 design may all be customized. The lid 120 comprises a lid-circumference smaller than that of the outer wall 131 and greater than that of the first-cavity 136 allowing the lid 120 to rest on the container 130 when in a closed position.

(14) FIG. 4 shows a front perspective view of the container system 100 of FIG. 1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As above, the container system 100 may include a first-cavity 136 that is able to mold and store a molded wax or soap. The first-cavity 136 is preferably thermal resistant allowing a user to pour hot wax directly inside the first-cavity 136 for molding and storing. The first-cavity 136 removably contains at least one item including a non-scented-item or a scented item. The at least one item comprises sporting equipment such as wax, helmet snaps, screws, sharpening stones or other loose products such as chewing tobacco, candy or coins. The ventilated perforations 138 connect the second-cavity 134 to the outer surface of container 130. The device may be used for freshening a surrounding environment such as a sporting equipment bag.

(15) FIG. 5 shows a perspective view of the container system 100 of FIG. 1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As above, the container system 100 may include a container assembly 110 including a lid 120 having a fastener, such as a snap fastener 124, and an attacher 128, and a container 130 having a first-cavity 136 and a second-cavity 134. Other fastening or attaching means may be used.

(16) FIG. 6 shows a cutaway, perspective view of the container system 100 of FIG. 1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. This view shows the container 130 with a portion of the outer wall 131 removed, revealing the second-cavity 134, which, in this embodiment, contains scented-item 10.

(17) According to one embodiment, the container system 100 may be arranged as a kit. The kit may include at least one scented item 10, a container assembly 110, and a set of user instructions 155. The instructions may detail functional relationships in relation to the structure of the container system 100 (such that the container system 100 can be used, maintained, or the like, in a preferred manner).

(18) The embodiments of the invention described herein are exemplary and numerous modifications, variations and rearrangements can be readily envisioned to achieve substantially equivalent results, all of which are intended to be embraced within the spirit and scope of the invention. Further, the purpose of the foregoing abstract is to enable the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally, and especially the scientist, engineers and practitioners in the art who are not familiar with patent or legal terms or phraseology, to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and essence of the technical disclosure of the application.
