(17) FIG. 1E exemplarily illustrates a rear elevation view of a detachable back panel 103 of a detachable bag 100. In an embodiment, the detachable back panel 103 is foam padded to provide a cushioning effect to the back of a user. The detachable back panel 103 is designed to affect the user's balance minimally. Consider the example of a worn out detachable back panel 103. As the foam padding of the detachable back panel 103 has lost its effectiveness, the user feels discomfort when his/her back comes into contact with the rear surface 103a of the detachable back panel 103. In such a scenario, the detachable back panel 103 alone is removed and replaced with a new detachable back panel 103, which has an effective foam padding. This results in reusability of the detachable bag 100, and prevents wastage due to a defect in one component of the detachable bag 100. The shoulder straps 105 extend from an upper end 103e to a lower end 103d of the detachable back panel 103. The shoulder straps 105 are rigidly attached at the upper end 103e and attached via the first attachment member 103c positioned at the lower end 103d of the detachable back panel 103 as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 1A.

(18) FIG. 1F exemplarily illustrates a front view of a shoulder strap 105 of a detachable bag 100. The shoulder strap 105 comprises a fourth fastening member 105a. The shoulder strap 105 enables a user to strap the detachable bag 100 to his/her shoulder, thereby providing better mobility than a bag held by hand. The fourth fastening member 105a is positioned at an upper end 105c of the shoulder strap 105. The third fastening member 104a of the detachable hood 104 and the fourth fastening member 105a enable attachment of the detachable hood 104 to the upper end 105c of the shoulder strap 105. Moreover, the second attachment member 105b is positioned at a lower end 105d of the shoulder straps 105. The first attachment member 103c and the second attachment member 105b enable attachment of the rear surface 103a of the detachable back panel 103 to the lower end 105d of the shoulder strap 105. The second attachment member 105b also allows adjustment of the shoulder straps 105 depending on the user's choice.

(19) FIG. 1G exemplarily illustrates a front view of a pocket 107 of a detachable bag 100. In an embodiment, the detachable front panel 101 comprises multiple pockets 107 for holding objects, for example, pens, pencils, erasers, pencil leads, etc.

(20) FIGS. 1H-1I exemplarily illustrate a front elevation view and a rear elevation view of a detachable hood 104 of a detachable bag 100 respectively. In an embodiment, the detachable hood 104 comprises one third fastening member 104a. In another embodiment, the detachable hood 104 comprises two third fastening members 104a as exemplarily illustrated in FIGS. 1H-1I. The detachable hood 104 attaches to the shoulder straps 105 using the fourth fastening members 105a and the two third fastening members 104a as disclosed in the detailed description of FIG. 1F. Additionally, the detachable hood 104 comprises a yoke 104b. As used herein, a yoke refers to a shaped pattern piece, which forms a part of the detachable hood 104, usually extending around the neck and shoulders. The yoke 104b is sewn onto the detachable hood 104. The yoke 104b provides added support to the neck and shoulders of a user and reduces the stress experienced by the user's neck and shoulders. The absence of the yoke 104b places additional strain as the weight of the detachable bag 100 is transferred directly to the detachable hood 104. In an embodiment, the detachable hood 104 provided are of different colours and fabrics. The fabric options provided depend on the current weather cycle. If the weather is rainy, the detachable hood 104 would be water resistant and prevent water from seeping through to the head of the user. If the weather is cold and dry, the detachable hood 104 has multiple layers made of, for example, wool, warm materials, etc.
