DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0024] An embodiment of a multiple compartment storage carry case 10 according to the present invention is illustrated in FIGS. 1-7. Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, the multiple compartment storage carry case 10 has an upper storage compartment 30 having a front side 16 pivotally connected to a lower storage compartment lid 22 using a hinged connection 14. The hinge 14 may be located at the opposite side of the construction from the hinge 20, so that the upper storage compartment lid 18 opens in the direction opposite from the opening direction of the lower storage compartment lid 22 (as shown in FIGS. 2-3).

[0025] Still referring to FIGS. 1-2, the upper storage compartment lid 18 may be secured in a closed position using a latch 12, such as for example, draw latch. It will be appreciated that any suitable means of securing or locking the lid 18 in the closed position may be implemented.

[0026] FIG. 3 illustrates the multiple storage compartment carry case 10 in use as a storage medium for the components of baby mouth items. In a non-limiting embodiment, the upper storage compartment 30 is provided with a plurality of cut-outs 24, 26, and 28 in which baby mouth items may be stored.

[0027] Although FIG. 3 illustrates a particular arrangement for the components of the baby mouth items, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the arrangement is not critical, and can be varied without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. For example, the arrangement depends in part on the configuration of the components of the storage carry case 10, since different configurations of the components may be used in the storage carry case 10, thereby requiring a different arrangement.

[0028] Referring to FIGS. 4, 5, 6 and 7, the multiple compartment storage carry case 10 has a lower storage compartment 44 having a front side 46 pivotally connected to the upper storage compartment lid 18 using a hinged connection 20. The hinge 20 may be located at the opposite side of the construction from the hinge 14, so that the lower storage compartment lid 22 opens in the direction opposite from the opening direction of the upper storage compartment lid 18 (as shown in FIGS. 6-7).

[0029] The lower storage compartment lid 22 may be secured in a closed position on a top of the container body 40 using latch 12, such as for example, draw latch. It will be appreciated that any suitable means of securing or locking the lid 22 in the closed position may be implemented.

[0030] Referring FIGS. 5-6, the lower storage compartment lid 22 has a top portion 42 covering an aperture 36 which is used to provide access to a first container body 40. A top cover 32 which is connected to a top portion 42 using a hinge connection 34 and is secured to a locked position using a snap 38. To open the top cover 32 for accessing the first container body 40, user simply lifts the top cover 32 from the snap 38.

[0031] FIG. 7 shows the lower storage compartment 44 of the multiple storage compartment carry case 10 having the first container body 40, which is pivotally connected to a second container body 42 using a hinge connection 20. The first container body 40 may be positioned above the second container body 42 in the space defined by the second container body 42.

[0032] The embodiments were chosen and described to best explain the principles of the invention and its practical application to persons who are skilled in the art. As various modifications could be made to the exemplary embodiments, as described above with reference to the corresponding illustrations, without departing from the scope of the invention, it is intended that all matter contained in the foregoing description and shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative rather than limiting. Thus, the breadth and scope of the present invention should not be limited by any of the above described exemplary embodiments, but should be defined only in accordance with the following claims appended hereto and their equivalents.

[0033] Having illustrated and described the principles of the present invention in a preferred embodiment, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the embodiment can be modified in arrangement and detail without departing from such principles. Any and all such embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
