Description

Handbag for accommodating replacement shoes

Technical Field

The invention relates to a bag for accommodating a replacement shoe according to claim 1 and a kit of parts according to claim 19.

Background

Bags for receiving shoes are known in particular in the field of sports in connection with sports shoes. For example, in which indoor shoes intended for use in sports stadiums and which must not be worn outside can be stored. Most of these bags are designed to accommodate other sports accessories and are not suitable for some other uses, such as lady handbags, based on their size and design. It is well known that women often carry two pairs of shoes, such as comfortable shoes suitable for long-term walking and elegant high-heeled shoes suitable for wearing in restaurants, clubs, weddings, etc., but the high-heeled shoes are relatively uncomfortable to walk and can cause foot pain. Usually, the second pair of shoes is carried in a second bag or pouch, which on the one hand has the disadvantage of carrying a second piece of "luggage" in addition to the woman's handbag, and on the other hand is visually unattractive.

Disclosure of Invention

The task of the invention is to provide a practical and flexible handbag.

This object is achieved in a first aspect of the invention by the features of claim 1. Accordingly, a carry bag for receiving replacement shoes is provided. The handbag is provided with a front surface, a back surface, a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface forms the bottom of the handbag. The carrying bag comprises at least one first bag and a second bag used for accommodating replaceable shoes. The second pack comprises a closure system, by means of which the interior space of the second pack can be closed and opened for replacing the shoe. The first pack can be fixed to the second pack by means of a fixing system at or on a common separating plane formed by a separating side of the first pack and a separating side of the second pack facing the separating side of the first pack. The fixing system is designed such that the first pack can be completely removed from the second pack.

One advantage of the present invention is that only one single bag needs to be carried, which on the one hand provides space for the indispensable accessories of the wearer in the first bag and on the other hand provides inconspicuous space for the replacement of shoes in the second bag. The modular structure of the bag comprising two bags is advantageous on the basis of its flexibility. The articles can be stored separately in the first bag or the second bag in the handbag. Furthermore, for example, the second pack with the shoes can be put in a wardrobe, while only the first pack is carried as a lady pack for the corresponding activity. Upon removal from the activity, the second pack may be removed and the shoe replaced, and then the second pack may be re-secured to the first pack.

In a preferred embodiment, in the carry bag, the separating surface is directed towards the bottom of the bag and the middle area of the separating surface is closer to the bottom of the bag than the edge area of the separating surface. This design has the additional advantage of: on account of the special shape of the second packet in which the edge region is higher than the middle region, the higher rear part of the high-heeled shoe can be accommodated in the edge region, while the distinctly flatter front part of the shoe can be accommodated without problems in the middle, even if the height of the second packet is lower in this region. Thereby saving space.

Preferably in this embodiment at least a portion of the separating surface is substantially convex when viewed from the bottom of the bag. By substantially convex it is understood here that the middle region of the second packet, viewed from the bottom of the packet, protrudes with respect to the edge region of the second packet. In this context, this does not have to be a pure curved surface, but it can also have straight sections.

Furthermore, a partition wall is preferably provided in the interior of the second pack, which partition wall divides the interior into two compartments, so that the replacement shoes can be stored in one compartment each without touching one another. This measure advantageously ensures that the shoes do not get dirty from each other. In this embodiment it is also preferred that the partition wall is flexible so that it can adapt to the shape of the replacement shoe. This is advantageous because different shoe shapes are often used, so that the partition wall can be adapted to the current shoe shape. Furthermore, the separating wall is preferably removable, so that the second pack can accommodate other articles in another use situation, which in particular can have a volume which is greater than the volume occupied by a shoe.

In embodiments, the securing system comprises at least one zipper for securing the first pack to the second pack. The zipper described herein preferably extends along the entire contour of the separating surface, which allows for quick attachment and detachment of the bag in one pull. Alternatively, depending on the geometric design of the bag, two or more zippers may be provided which respectively close or open a section of the separating surface profile.

Alternatively or additionally, the fixing system may comprise at least one magnet on each of the first and second packs, the magnets cooperating on the parting plane to fix the first pack to the second pack by means of magnetic attraction. As an alternative, this solution has the advantage that it also enables a quick fixing or detachment of the pack, while the fixing system is not visible from the outside. Furthermore, there is no risk of the (permanent) magnet being damaged and not functioning properly anymore, as is often the case with zippers. As a complement to the slide fastener, the magnet offers the following advantages, in particular in the case of a separating flank made of soft material: even when the pack is full, the separating flanks remain together at the separating plane and the inner space of the first pack and the second pack remains substantially unchanged and the separating plane does not sag into the inner space of the other pack, for example under the influence of the weight of the articles in the pack.

Alternatively or additionally, the fastening system may comprise at least one hook and loop fastener on the first and second packs, respectively. The hook and loop fastener strips of the one bag and the loop fastener strips of the other bag cooperate in a known manner on the release surface to secure the first bag to the second bag. The advantage is similar to the advantage of using magnets, and another advantage is that velcro is less costly and lighter in weight.

Another aspect of the invention relates to a kit of parts for a bag according to the invention, comprising at least one first bag, one second bag and at least one carrying strap. Advantageously, the carry bag according to the invention can be provided as a wrapping element, the first or second bag also being available separately as a spare part.

Drawings

Further embodiments, advantages and applications of the invention result from the dependent claims and the following description on the basis of the drawings. The attached drawings are as follows:

figure 1 shows a schematic front view of the front side of a bag according to the invention;

FIG. 2 shows the carrying bag of FIG. 1 with replacement shoes in the interior space of the second bag;

figure 3 shows a top view of the bag showing the entrance of the first bag; and

figures 4 to 16 show schematically in front views of other embodiments of a bag according to the invention, respectively.

Detailed Description

The expressions "upper", "lower" and "side" in this text should be interpreted with reference to the normal orientation of the figures.

A "separating surface" is understood in this context to be a contact surface of the two separating flanks of the first and second packets in the mutually fixed state.

The term "separation plane towards the bottom of the bag" in the following text means that the separation plane is not perpendicular to the bottom of the bag, in other words, that at least one section of the separation plane is not at an angle of 90 ° to the bottom of the bag.

The bag bottom itself is always supposed to rest on the respective support when used as intended, which is exemplarily based on a horizontal direction in all the figures. In this context, the bottom of the bag always relates to the entire handbag.

In all figures, the first packets are shown shaded differently from the second packets for better overview.

In the drawings, like reference numbers indicate identical or functionally similar elements.

Fig. 1 shows a schematic front view of a handbag 1 for accommodating replacement shoes 2 according to the present invention. High-heeled shoes are used as an example in this context, since such shoes require particularly much space on the basis of their shape. Of course, the handbag 1 according to the present invention is also suitable for other types of shoes, in particular because other types of shoes must be contained in the bag, as far as the characteristics of interchangeability of the shoes are concerned. As mentioned above, the bag 1 comprises a first bag 1a having the first entrance 3c and the first separating side 3b (in the present case the first bottom 3b) and a second bag 1b for accommodating a replacement shoe 2. The second pack 1b has a separating side surface 4a facing the first separating side surface (first bottom 3 b). In this embodiment, the bottom of the pack corresponds to the bottom 4b of the second pack. The separating

sides

3b and 4a face each other and form a separating plane in the secured state of the bag, which separating plane extends perpendicularly into the plane of the drawing in fig. 1, which applies to all front views of the following embodiments.

Preferably, the bottom 4b of the bag is reinforced with a hard material. It is particularly desirable to reinforce the bottom 4b of the bag, since on the one hand, when the bag is put down, the entire weight of the bag falls on the bottom of the bag. On the other hand, the resistance of the sole portion 4b in high-heeled shoes, in particular thin high-heeled shoes, to the bottom action is thereby increased. Furthermore, it is preferred that the first bottom 3b of the first pack and/or the separating side 4a of the second pack is reinforced with a hard material. Thereby, the connection between the two packs can be established more easily depending on the shape of the separating surfaces, especially in case one or more zippers are used.

The bag 1 further comprises a securing system 5a for securing the first bag 1a to the second bag 1 b. The fixing system 5a is designed such that the first pack 1a can be completely removed from the second pack 1b when opened. Preferably, the fastening system 5a is formed by at least one zipper, by means of which the first bottom 3b of the first pack 1a can be fastened along its contour to the separating side 4a of the second pack 1 b. The use of a single zipper may be advantageous because the first pack 1a may be separated from the second pack 1b in one pull, especially if the top surface 3a (see fig. 3) of the first pack is wider and/or does not form a sharp edge with the front or back surface of the first pack 1 a. However, according to the design of the handbag 1, a zipper for fixing can be arranged on the front surface (shown in fig. 1) and the back surface (not visible) of the handbag 1. This may be advantageous if the top side of the first bag 1a is narrow and/or forms a sharp edge with the front or back side of the bag 1, otherwise the opening or closing of the individual zippers may be problematic when transitioning to or from the top side to the front or back side of the first bag. Alternatively, the fastening system 5a can of course also be realized by a latching system, such as a snap closure (clipverse), or a hook-and-loop fastener, or by a magnet. In the case of velcro or magnets, they may also act on the parting plane, as described above.

The bag 1 comprises a strap 8 which can be selectively secured to either the first holder 6a (eyelet) on the first bag 1a or the second holder 6b (eyelet) on the second bag 1 b. Advantageously, the respective bag or the entire bag 1 can be carried thereby. In the above-mentioned example, the second pack 1b may be put into a wardrobe, where the carry strap 8 is separated from the holder 6b and mounted to the holder 6a, so that the first pack 1a can be conveniently carried.

However, the carrying strap may also be used as part of the securing system in addition to its intended function. The carrying strap is here fixed at each end to one eyelet 6a of the first pack and at the same time to one eyelet 6b of the second pack, as shown in fig. 1. The strap may even be used as the sole fastening system, wherein the zipper on the separating

sides

3b, 4a may be omitted.

In an embodiment, the bag comprises at least one additional retainer 6c, for example also in the form of an eyelet, in the bottom area of the bag. Two backpack straps can be provided, each of which is fastened at one end to the additional holder 6c and at the other end to one of the first holders 6a or one of the second holders 6b, so that the bag can be carried as a backpack. If the additional holder 6c is designed in the manner of a carabiner clip (karabinerarigi) so that the middle of the strap 8 can be inserted therein, the strap 8 can also be used in this case. Whereby the two loops each form a backpack strip.

In this embodiment, the separation side 4a is closer to the bag bottom 4b in the middle region (region around the arrow 3b) than in the edge region (region at the holder 6b) which is farther from the bag bottom in the second bag 1 b. In the context of this document, the central region extends up to a length corresponding to approximately one third of the total width of the front side. As mentioned above, in a preferred embodiment the separating side 4a of the second pack 1b is substantially convex when viewed from the pack bottom 4 b. The advantages of this design of the top surface 4a can be clearly seen in connection with fig. 2. The heel region of the shoe 2 can be accommodated in the edge region, while the front region (toe cap) of the shoe 2, which takes up less space, can be accommodated in the middle region. Thereby, the space above the toe can be used for the first pack 1 a. This space is best utilized when the first bottom 3b of the first pack 1a coincides congruent with the top surface 4a of the second pack 1b (deckungsgleich). In other words, when the two

packs

1a, 1b are connected, the bottom face (separating side face) of the first pack 1a rests with a large surface on the top face (separating side face) of the second pack 1 b. Obviously, the bulging/convex area may also be used for storing items in the first pack 1 a. In other words, the space saved in the toe area in the second pack is used for the first pack. This embodiment is preferred, but for example for design reasons the first bottom 3b may be designed differently and not congruent with the top surface 4a over the entire extension of the parting plane.

The second pack 1b comprises a closure system 5b, by means of which the access opening of the second pack 1b can be closed and opened for replacing the shoe 2 (see fig. 1 and 2). In this embodiment, one zipper 5b opens and closes the front face substantially formed by one flap 9. When the zipper is opened, the flaps 9 are folded upwards. In another embodiment, two zippers may be provided which may flap open and close a portion of the front face, respectively.

The closure system may also be designed differently. In another embodiment, at least one zipper (not shown) is provided, which extends at least along a part of the bottom 4b of the pack, in particular along the entire bottom of the pack and further along the side 11 of the second pack 1 b. The zipper can run centrally in the bag bottom 4b or along the contour of the bag bottom, so that replacement shoes can be placed into and removed from the second bag 1b from below on the bottom side, which is particularly advantageous in soft second bottoms.

In another embodiment, the closure system comprises two not shown side zippers by means of which one replacement shoe 2 can be placed into and removed from the second pack 1b from one side thereof and the other replacement shoe 2 can be placed into and removed from the second pack 1b from the other side thereof (i.e. in the direction of arrow 11). The respective zipper can extend centrally on the side or over the contour of the side.

Fig. 2 shows the carrying bag of fig. 1 with the second bag 1b opened and the replacement shoe 2 in the inner space of the second bag 1b, the flap 9 of fig. 1 not being shown here for the sake of clarity.

A partition wall 7 is provided in the inner space of the second pack 1b so that the replacement shoes 2 can be stored in the second pack 1b without contacting each other. As previously mentioned, it is preferred that the partition wall 7 is flexible so that it can adapt to the shape of the replacement shoe 2, which facilitates placement of the replacement shoe 2 in the interior space. As in the other embodiments, the partition wall 7 is shown here in dashed lines and is formed for the sake of simplicity by two sections with one angle. In this context, this illustration is only used to illustrate the flexibility of the partition wall and the adaptation to the shoe shape, which also applies to the other embodiments and is not repeated. Furthermore, it is preferred that the partition wall 7 is removable, so that the second pack is also suitable for other purposes, for example for placing items larger than the volume of the shoe in the interior space. For this purpose, the partition wall 7 can be fixed, for example, by means of velcro or the like.

The partition wall 7 divides the interior space into two compartments 10, which compartments 10 can be stacked in a vertical or horizontal direction, so that replacement shoes 2 can be stored in one compartment 10 with their toes overlapping in front. The division in the vertical direction (in the case shown in fig. 2) means that the partition wall 7 is directed on the surface towards the bottom of the bag, which is preferred. In other words, the replacement shoe 2 is overlapped in the vertical direction. Division in the horizontal direction (into the plane of the figure, not shown) means that the partition walls are on the surface towards the front or back of the bag 1. In this embodiment, the toes are not stacked one above the other as in the vertical division, but are arranged side by side. Although this takes up more space in the horizontal direction (into the plane of the drawing of fig. 2), the first packet 1a can reach a lower position in the intermediate region (the convexity is more pronounced) and thus provide more space in its inner space.

Preferably the inner wall of the second pack 1b is made of or coated with a water impermeable material, such as plastic, which may also optionally be suitable for the first pack 1 a. Such a material advantageously prevents the penetration of water when the shoe is worn, for example in the rain, thereby preventing damage to the normally high quality outer material of the bag 1 and the penetration of moisture into the first packet 1 a. Furthermore, this makes the interior space easier to clean, which is desirable in view of road dirt penetrating into the interior space when storing the shoes after use.

Regarding the length of the handbag (length of the bottom part 4b in the drawing), the size of the handbag 1 can be unified to the maximum size of the common women's shoes, or can be individually sized through custom production, or can be sized for different standard shoe sizes. In one exemplary embodiment, the second bottom 4b is 29.8cm long.

Similarly, the carrying bag 1 may also have a different maximum height (in the edge area), or a standard height, of the inner space of the second bag 1b

Or custom height. Depending on the maximum height of the heel that should be specified. For example, heel heights up to 15cm are known, plus the height of the rear of the shoe. In the above exemplary embodiment, the height is 15.35 cm.

In the above-described exemplary embodiment, the height (minimum height) of the second pack 1b in the intermediate region is about 12.4cm from the second bottom 4b to the first bottom 3 b.

The modular structure of the bag also allows to replace only the first or

second bag

1a, 1b, whether based on damage or on design changes.

Figure 3 shows the bag in a view looking towards the top surface 3a with the entrance 3c of the first bag 1 a. In this view it can be seen that the

holders

6a, 6b are curved in this embodiment. Thereby preventing the bag from being removed towards the front or back of the bag. It can only be pulled out upwards. This is advantageous in an embodiment of the bag in which the securing system does not comprise a zipper 5a, but the first and second bags are held together only by the strap 8 secured to the holder, as has been explained in connection with fig. 1. Although the carrying strap holds the pack together, it has some clearance in the

eyelets

6a, 6b and therefore does not prevent small movements of the first pack relative to the second pack. Based on the curved design of the

eyelets

6a, 6b, the first pack cannot move towards the front or back and remains flush with the second pack at the front. This embodiment is particularly advantageous if the bag is used as a satchel, since in this case it may hit the buttocks and cause said movement of the first bag towards the front when walking.

Fig. 4 to 16 each schematically show another embodiment of a hand bag according to the invention.

Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the separating plane is directed towards the bottom part 4b of the bale and extends in an inclined plane with respect to the bottom part 4b of the bale. It should be noted that the inclined plane may also be present only in sections, another or other section may for example be horizontal or curved. Such further sections are shown by way of example in fig. 4 in dashed lines and are denoted by reference numeral 4d for this embodiment and other embodiments which will be explained below. In this example, a vertical section and then a horizontal section are connected at the inclined section of the separating surface. But may also follow only one curved section.

For all embodiments of the bag, in the case of a separating surface formed by a plurality of segments, the following applies in principle: these sections can be combined in such a way that a larger and a smaller partial volume are always formed in the second pack 1b, so that the heel is located in the larger volume and the toe is located in the smaller volume.

In all the shown embodiments of the bag according to the invention, the separating plane extends at least partially non-parallel to the bag bottom. But of course a parting plane parallel to the bottom of the bag may be provided.

In the current embodiment, the first bag is not flush with the second bag, which gives the bag an unusual appearance. This is of course not necessary, the triangular first pack may occupy the entire sloping side surface, so that it will be flush with the second pack.

Different options for securing the carrying strap 8 to the

holders

6a, 6b have been described in connection with figure 1. In this embodiment, when the first pack is secured to the second pack, the bail 8 is secured at one end to the first holder 6a of the first pack and at the other end to the second holder 6b of the second pack. For the sake of simplicity, the other holders of the two

packs

1a, 1b are not depicted. But of course a

further holder

6a, 6b is provided for each

pack

1a, 1b so that each pack can be carried separately.

It has also been described in connection with fig. 2 that the partition walls may have different orientations. In contrast to the first embodiment, in this second embodiment the partition 7 extends parallel to the plane of the drawing (not shown, since it corresponds to the contour of the second packet) behind the depicted shoe 2. A second shoe (not depicted) is disposed behind the divider wall in the same orientation as the depicted shoe. In this case too, space is saved, since the entire right-hand area of the bag can be used to enlarge the content of the first bag while keeping the size of the bag unchanged.

It should be pointed out here for all embodiments that the flexibility of the bag and the optimal utilization of the available interior space by corresponding orientation of the separating surfaces are also advantageous in terms of a reasonable separation of the contents of the two

bags

1a, 1 b; it is undesirable to store certain items with the shoe, particularly cosmetics that may be contaminated.

In this embodiment, the bag may be wider than in the first embodiment, as the shoes are arranged side by side.

The entrance of the second pack 1b may be provided on the left side of the second pack so that the replacement shoe 2 can be pushed into the second pack from the left side. But the inlet may also be provided on the bottom 4b of the pack, which in this case is formed only by the bottom of the second pack. Alternatively, the inlet may also extend on the bottom 4b and the left side.

Fig. 5 shows a cross-sectional view of a third embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the separating surface faces the bag bottom 4b and is curved. It should be noted that a curved separating surface, as shown in connection with fig. 4, may also be present only in a partial section, the other or further sections being for example horizontal or vertical or inclined or a combination thereof. The separating surface may also be corrugated at least in sections. In any case, the bag 1a is configured such that the separating surface extends around the centre of the bag, whereby the first bag is configured as a body of revolution around the second bag. In the case of a rotary body, the first pack surrounds the entire second pack. The first packet may only partially surround the second packet. In other embodiments, not shown, the second packet surrounds at least a portion of the first packet or the entire first packet.

In this embodiment, the strap is fixed to the second holder 6b of the second pack 1b when the bag is assembled. But the first pack also has a first holder 6a, not shown, so that it can also be carried separately.

The partition wall 7 extends here perpendicular to the bag bottom 4b in the drawing plane. In the figures, the vertical double line shall also indicate a closure system comprising a zipper for the entrance of the second pack, the horizontal section of the zipper connected thereto not being shown here. In any case they are present such that two flaps are formed on the left and right side of the double line in the open state of the second pack. The replacement shoe 2 can be placed in the respective left and right compartments of the inner space of the second pack on the front side, respectively. Alternatively or additionally, the closure system may also include a zipper at arrow 11 laterally above, so that replacement shoes may be placed into the second bag from the side in the direction of arrow 11, respectively.

The pack bottom 4b is here formed by the bottom of the first pack and the bottom of the second pack.

Fig. 6 shows a cross-sectional view of a fourth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the parting plane extends straight in one plane perpendicular to the bag bottom. But as in the other embodiments it may also be curved or comprise curved sections.

Here, as in the second embodiment, when the first pack is fixed to the second pack, the strap 8 is fixed to the first holder 6a of the first pack at one end and to the second holder 6b of the second pack at the other end. For the sake of simplicity, the other holders of the two

packs

1a, 1b are not depicted. But of course a

further holder

6a, 6b is provided for each

pack

1a, 1b so that each pack can be carried separately.

In this fourth embodiment, as in the second embodiment, the partition wall 7 extends parallel to the plane of the drawing (not shown, since it corresponds to the outline of the second packet) behind the depicted shoe 2. A second shoe (not depicted) is provided behind the dividing wall in the same orientation as the shoe depicted.

The access to the second pack is here preferably formed at the side at arrow 11 by at least one zipper as a closure system. Since the second shoe is arranged behind the visible shoe, the zipper can also extend laterally in such a way that, when opened, it forms a flap which opens both compartments of the shoe. Alternatively, an own zipper may be provided for each compartment. Alternatively or additionally, the closure system herein may include a front zipper and a back zipper that allow access to the compartment from the front and back of the bag, respectively.

Fig. 7 shows a cross-sectional view of a fourth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the separation plane is directed towards the pack bottom 4b formed only by the bottom of the second pack and extends in a horizontal plane in a first section in an inclined plane and in a second adjacent section.

The carrying strap (not shown) can here be fixed, for example in the assembled state of the bag, only on the second holder (not shown) which is located at the lateral end of the second bag. Alternatively, the strap may be fixed with one end to the first holder 6a of the first bag and with the other end to the second holder 6b (not shown) of the second bag, when the holders are arranged in the upper corners of the bag.

The access to the second bag is preferably formed here laterally at the arrow 11 by a zipper as a closure system. Additionally or alternatively, a zipper can be provided on the front or back side similar to the first embodiment (fig. 1, 2).

Fig. 8 shows a cross-sectional view of a fifth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention, which is a mirror image modification of the fourth embodiment shown in fig. 7. The difference lies in that: in this case, on the one hand, the strap is only fixed to the second holder 6b (not shown) of the second bag when the bag is assembled, and on the other hand, the bag bottom is formed by the bottom of the first bag and the bottom of the second bag.

Fig. 9 shows a cross-sectional view of a sixth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the first pack 1a is arranged above the second pack 1b, wherein the separating surface extends obliquely in the plane as in the second embodiment (fig. 4), but the two packs are flush at the side. As in the other embodiments, the separating surface can also be formed in this case by a plurality of segments and can have curved, wavy or the like segments.

The strap is here only secured to the first holder 6a (not shown) of the first bag in the assembled state of the bag. The remaining features of this embodiment correspond to those of the first embodiment.

Fig. 10 shows a sectional view of a seventh embodiment of a hand bag 1 according to the invention. This embodiment, as representative of other conceivable embodiments of the carrying bag not shown here, best illustrates the possibilities of design of the separating surfaces, in other words the relative position of the first and second bag and the shape thereof.

The separating surface is formed by a plurality of segments. The triangular left-hand side part of the first pack is here connected to the right-hand side part of the first pack by a tab, not visible in the drawing, which extends with a line 4e, as seen in the drawing plane, through the middle "tower" of the second pack. The separating surface comprises a plurality of sections, namely two sections each extending in an inclined plane, four sections extending perpendicularly and in the plane of the drawing, and two sections extending perpendicularly and parallel to the front surface (surface between the top surface and the line 4 e), which form the vertical walls of the web. In this embodiment, the magnet or hook-and-loop fastener system already explained is suitable as a fastening system, since the use of zippers based on complex geometries, while possible, is inconvenient and therefore undesirable.

The pack bottom is formed only by the bottom of the second pack.

The strap can be fixed here in all possible alternatives already described:

on the side, with one end, by means of a first holder, to the left of the second pack and with the other end, by means of a first holder, to the right of the first pack, or

At the top side of the bag, at both ends, to a first holder of a first bag, or

At the top side of the bag, at both ends, to a second holder of a second bag, or

The top side of the bag is fixed with one end to the first holder of the first bag and with the other end to the second holder of the second bag.

The entrance to the replacement shoe may be provided above the "tower" for one shoe and on the side or bottom side for the other shoe.

For efficiency reasons, another, eighth embodiment of the hand bag is also described below using the illustration of fig. 10. In this embodiment, not only one first packet but two first packets are provided. One first pack is arranged on the left side and the other first pack is arranged on the right side. The middle "tower" of the second bag extends here continuously into the plane of the figure up to the back of the bag. The two first packs can be fixed to the second pack independently of one another.

Here, as in the seventh embodiment, the shoes can be arranged either as shown or side by side as in the second embodiment, in which case the partition walls of course do not extend as shown, but rather as explained in connection with fig. 4.

In addition to the flexibility of the bag, which has become clear in connection with the explanation of the "simpler" embodiment of the bag, the embodiment described in connection with fig. 10 should also create the possibility for the bag according to the invention to be built up as a "modular system" which allows a wide variety of bag designs and at the same time is flexible in terms of use of the bag in the assembled or separated state, the placement of the replacement shoes also being optionally possible in one way or another, depending on the design of the first and second bag.

Fig. 11 shows a cross-sectional view of a ninth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. This embodiment is similar to the third embodiment (fig. 5) with the difference that the parting plane is not curved but extends in an inclined plane. Furthermore, the shape formed by the remaining side faces of the second packet together with the separating plane is such that the interior space of the shoe is opposed here, not the sole.

Fig. 12 shows a cross-sectional view of a tenth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. This embodiment corresponds essentially to the mirror-inverted bringing together of two packs according to the second embodiment (fig. 4), the first pack and the second pack here being flush on the sides. Here, the bag may be narrower because the shoes may be arranged side by side unlike the second embodiment.

Fig. 13 shows a cross-sectional view of an eleventh embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. This embodiment corresponds to the tenth embodiment, where the top surface of the bag comprises the top surfaces of the first and second bag, which are arranged flush.

Fig. 14 shows a cross-sectional view of a twelfth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this case the bag is similar to the second embodiment, except that the first bag is flush with the second bag on the top and side surfaces, and the second bag does not extend straight down on the left side, but is more bulged in the lower region. Finally, the separating surface is formed here by a vertical section and an inclined section. For other features of the bag not explicitly described in connection with this figure, reference may be made to the embodiments in fig. 11, 12, 13, 15 and 16 in the sense and accordingly to the arrangement of the carrying strap.

Fig. 15 shows a cross-sectional view of a thirteenth embodiment of a bag 1 according to the invention. In this embodiment, the first packet is fixed to the side of the second packet, where the separating plane runs in a conical manner into the plane of the drawing perpendicularly and not parallel to the side wall of the second packet. The partition wall 7 is preferably arranged diagonally in the drawing plane, that is to say such that its surface points into the drawing plane. Thereby achieving vertical overlap of replacement shoes. The pack bottom is formed only by the bottom of the second pack.

Fig. 16 shows a cross-sectional view of a fourteenth embodiment of a hand bag 1 according to the invention. This embodiment corresponds to the thirteenth embodiment (fig. 15) with the difference that the first pack extends to the bottom and thus forms the pack bottom together with the bottom of the second pack.

In the embodiment of fig. 15 and 16. The parting plane may also extend vertically but parallel to the side walls of the second pack, as shown.

As explained in conjunction with fig. 10, two first packs can also be provided in the embodiments of fig. 5, 11, 12 and 13 instead of one first pack which is designed as a rotary body.

It is generally preferred that the separating surface (separating side of the second pack) is not parallel, at least in sections, to at least one other side of the second pack which is not connected to the separating side. With the exception of the alternative embodiment of the bag of figures 15 and 16. It is thereby advantageous that the interior of the second bag has a narrower and a wider region, in particular that the interior of the second bag narrows towards one side, so that shoes, in particular high-heeled shoes, having a large height difference between the toe cap and the heel can be easily inserted into the second bag. In principle, in such an embodiment, the inlet of the second bag, if this inlet should be arranged on the side of the bag (arrow 11), is arranged on the wider or bulging side of the inner space of the second bag. Alternatively, a front or rear access opening may always be provided. The closure system of the second pack can be realized here not only by means of a zip fastener, but also by means of velcro or magnets, which is particularly advantageous in the case of more complex profiles of the front or rear side of the second pack, since they are not profile-dependent like a zip fastener. If no side closure system is provided, it is generally preferred that the closure system be provided on the back of the bag, which in the case of a carrying bag or purse or backpack is generally towards the body. This increases the difficulty of accidental access to the contents of the second pack and the bag is often given a neat impression on the front face or the front face may be provided with other decorative elements which might otherwise interfere with opening.

As mentioned above, the carry bag according to the invention can be carried as a handbag or as a satchel or as a backpack.

Another aspect of the invention relates to a kit of parts for a hand bag according to the invention, comprising at least one first bag, one second bag and at least one carrying strap. The first or second bag or the carrying strap can advantageously be replaced individually without having to replace the entire carrying bag. For example, if one of the bags is damaged, e.g., has a stain, only that bag needs to be replaced. It is also possible to provide, for example, a plurality of first packs having different characteristics (for example, different sizes if possible) or, for example, different colors, in order to use suitable first packs in a particular situation or to fit the carrying bag to the respective clothing article. In the case of a carrying strap, for example, only one strap may be purchased specifically for a satchel or handbag, or an additional strap may be purchased to use the carrying strap as a backpack, in which case the term "strap" includes all suitable types of straps, including handles for simplicity.

The handbag according to the present invention combines a number of advantages. Since the carrying bag consists of at least two completely separable parts, a suitable configuration can be selected depending on the situation and, for example, the first bag can be interchanged with another, for example, a first bag having a larger volume. Furthermore, the flexibility of the bag is also reflected in the fact that the different contents can be spatially separated from each other. In the described example of a high-heeled shoe, the bag according to the invention provides a remedy for carrying a replacement shoe in an unobtrusive manner. Based on the modular structure, the bag provides a high degree of flexibility and is durable in that only the first or second bag can be replaced.

Although preferred embodiments of the invention are described in the present application, it should be clearly noted that the invention is not limited to these embodiments and can also be implemented in other ways within the scope of the appended claims. Terms such as "preferred", "in particular", "advantageous" and the like as used in this description relate only to alternative and exemplary embodiments.
