Definitions
- the present application relates to a retractable handle.
- a retractable handle for a leather goods or luggage This is for example a leather goods flexible luggage type, for example a bag, including a handbag.
- At least one handle can retract to take the least possible space, visually and / or physically.
- the handle remains strong enough to support the article and, where appropriate, its contents.
- This aspect is particularly important for leather goods, fabrics or similar materials for which a tear is, for example, often irremediable, especially in the sense that the sewing would leave a trace that not only from an aesthetic point of view would be intolerable but, in addition, from a point of view of the strength of the article would create a local weakness that could lead more easily to a new tear.
- This handle 1 comprises a handle 2 capable of sliding in loops, such as the loop 4, fixed on a support 5.
- Each of the ends of the handle 2, for example the end 3, typically has a harpoon shape abutment when the handle 2 is in a position of portage, that is to say when a user wears the article of which at least a part composes the support 5.
- the handle 2 can adopt a retracted position in which it marries at least in part a surface of the support 5.
- the present invention aims at solving at least in part the aforementioned drawbacks, further leading to other advantages.
- Such a handle is thus able to slide easily while remaining solid. It also makes it possible to prevent one end of the handle from being re-usable.
- a stop makes it possible to form an end of the race for the passerby, especially when the handle is in the carrying position.
- Such an abutment is also preferably formed on the side of the inner face of the support.
- the guide lug is for example fixed to the support by a seam, a rivet, a nail or glue.
- the guide tab In a case where the guide tab is rigid, it is possibly fixed by only one of its ends. In a case where the guide tab is flexible, it is preferably fixed by its two ends.
- the at least one stop is formed at least in part by the at least one slot.
- the at least one stop is formed at least in part by a protuberance of the at least one guide lug, for example in the form of a cocked hat. This makes it possible in particular to avoid pulling on the slot, which could risk tearing it, especially if the article for which the handle is intended is very heavy.
- the protuberance of the at least one guide lug is formed near the at least one slot. This closes a day that would be formed by the slot, and makes the handle more aesthetic.
- At least a portion of the at least one guide tab, cooperating with the at least one passer, is parallel to at least the inner face of the support.
- At least one of the loop, the support and the at least one guide lug is at least partially made of leather.
- an at least partially flexible bag comprising at least one retractable handle having all or some of the features described above is also proposed.
- the at least one retractable handle forms a first retractable handle positioned on a first side of an opening for accessing a content of the bag, the bag further comprising at least one second retractable handle having all or some of the previously described features positioned on a second side of the opening.
- the first retractable handle and the second retractable handle are each parallel to an edge of the opening. Such a position allows to structure the edges of the opening, especially so that they remain against each other to close the opening when the bag is worn.
- the bag further comprises two additional handles, called third handle and fourth handle. This allows to have a bag with four handles to wear it differently as needed.
- the retractable handles then form so-called internal handles and the additional handles form so-called external handles.
- internal is meant here the fact that the handle is positioned between another handle and the opening of the bag (and not the fact that the handle would be located inside the bag).
- the internal handles are thus high handles and the external handles of the low handles.
- first retractable handle is located between the third handle and the opening and the second retractable handle is located between the fourth handle and the opening.
- the handle of the first retractable handle and the handle of the second retractable handle (in the carrying position) have a length equal to or greater than a length of a handle of the third handle and a handle of the fourth handle.
- the length of the internal handles allows in particular a worn "hollow arm”.
- the handle of the first retractable handle and the handle of the second retractable handle take the retracted position in a position of the bag carried by the third handle and the fourth handle.
- the retractable handles thus contribute to the closure of the opening, for example, and do not hinder the wearing of the bag.
- the fact that the internal handles are retractable responds to an aesthetic concern: the beauty of the top of the bag when it is not held by the internal handles.
- Figures 2 to 6 have only one end of a retractable handle according to one embodiment of the invention, for example the left end.
- the other end is for example fixed or retractable thanks to any system. It can in particular be identical to the end described below.
- a retractable handle 10 according to one embodiment of the invention comprises in particular a support 50, a handle 20 and a guide lug 40.
- the support 50 has an outer face 51, an inner face 52 and a through slot 60 through which the handle 20 passes.
- the slot 60 here has a half-moon shape, to form a tongue 61 covering a part of the 20. It facilitates and guide a sliding of the handle 20 in the slot 60 and prevent a day does not appear, which improves the aesthetics.
- outside and inside are of course used here by convention, according to a normal mode of use, to facilitate the description which follows.
- the face of the support described as being the outer face is thus typically oriented on the side of the article where is the portion of the handle to be input, that is to say generally the central portion of the handle.
- the loop 20, here flexible, comprises a first portion 21 located on the side of the inner face 52 of the support 50 and a second portion 22 located on the side of the outer face 51 of the support 50.
- the second portion 22 forms, at least partially , the part of the handle to be seized.
- the first portion 21 of the loop 20 has a loop 30 which surrounds here the guide lug 40.
- the loop 30 is here located at a free end of the first portion 21 of the loop 20. This allows in particular to save the material, to offer a long run to the handle 20 and / or to avoid that a portion of the handle 20 which extends beyond the loop 30 does not rebel or interfere with the sliding of the handle 20
- the loop 30 is wider than the first portion 21 of the loop 20. It is also preferably wider than the slot 60 to prevent it from passing through.
- the handle 20 is widened towards a central zone with respect to its ends, that is to say typically in its second part 22. Such widening allows a better ergonomics. This also makes it possible to brake a passage of the handle 20 through the slot 60, or even to prevent the handle 20 from passing entirely through the slot 60, in particular when the handle is not yet connected by at least one of its ends to another element, such as a guide lug.
- the guide tab 40 is here disposed on the side of the inner face 52 of the support 50.
- the guide tab 40 is sewn on the inner face 52 of the support 50 by its first end 41 and by its second end 42. It is for example made at least partially leather which gives it a certain strength and flexibility. In another embodiment not shown, if the guide tab was made for example by a metal rod, a fixation by a single end could be sufficient.
- the guide lug 40 is here substantially parallel to the inner face 52 of the support 50. It is for example pressed against the inner face 52 of the support 50 when the support 50 is stretched or laid flat.
- the guide lug 40 has at least one portion 45 between its two ends 41 and 42.
- the width of this portion is here constant and cooperates with the passage 30 of the first portion 21 of the handle 20 to allow the passer 30 to slide freely on it.
- the portion 45 of the guide tab 40 may have an oblong shape (in its width) or curved (in its thickness), substantially widened towards its center, so as to form a brake for promote the maintenance of the handle 20 in the carrying position or in the retracted position.
- the second end 42 here has a protuberance 43 in the form of a gendarme cap which serves as a stop for a running of the passer 30 when it slides on the portion 45 of the guide tab 40.
- the second end 42 is here sewn on the inner face 52 of the support 50, close to the slot 60, so that the protrusion 43 covers at least part of the slot 60 on the side of the inner face 52. This allows in particular to hide the slot 60 on one side to prevent a day from appearing. This is reinforced by the presence of the tongue 61 of the slot 60.
- the protuberance 43 is thus located upstream of the slot 60 relative to the travel of the passer 30 on the guide lug 40, which allows to prevent the loop 30 from coming into abutment with the slot 60 and pulling it, which could damage or tear it.
- the portion 45 of the guide lug 40 extends from the protrusion 43 to the first end 41.
- the first end 41 is preferably of rounded, ogival or rectangular shape with cut sides. It can have any other form.
- the retractable handle 10 thus comprises a stop formed here by the protuberance 43. However, it could however be formed differently, for example by a periphery of the slot 60 or by any added element.
- the stop generally makes it possible to form a limit switch for the passer 30 when the handle 20 is in the carrying position. It is preferably formed on the side of the inner face 52 of the support 50.
- the guide lug 40 is positioned parallel to an edge 53 of the support 50. Such an arrangement makes it possible in particular to structure the edge 53.
- a cooperation between the passer 30 and the guide lug 40 makes it possible in particular to prevent the end of the handle 20 from becoming worn again. Indeed, it is guided (and therefore constrained) by the guide lug 40 which follows (at least by its portion 45) the inner face 52 of the support 50.
- the portion 45 of the guide lug 40 which follows the inner face 52 support 50 a preferably, a length equal to or greater than a travel of the passer defined between the carrying position and the retracted position of the handle 20.
- the figure 4a shows the carrying position. In this position, the loop 30 of the first portion 21 of the loop 20 is in contact with the stop which is formed here by the protuberance 43 of the guide lug 40.
- the stop which is formed here by the protuberance 43 of the guide lug 40.
- Such a protrusion 43 is formed at the end 42 of the guide lug 40 and thus avoids pulling on the slot 60 during the port, which could damage it, for example tear if the object to wear is very heavy.
- the first portion 21 of the loop 20 (that is to say the portion of the loop located on the side of the inner face of the support 50) is very small, in particular because the stop formed by the protuberance 43 is located in the immediate vicinity of the slot 60.
- This allows to have a loop length 20 for a user as large as possible, that is to say that the second part 22 of the handle 20 is the longest possible. This also limits the risk of folding the support 50 under the effect of weight.
- a protuberance positioned at one end of the guide lug 40 makes it possible to give a great race to the handle 20 while helping to prevent one day from appearing through the slot 60.
- the figure 4b has an intermediate position corresponding to a moment during which the passer 30 slides on the guide lug 40, more precisely on the portion 45. This induces parallel sliding of the handle 20 through the slot 60. Therefore, the first part 21 of the handle 20 extends while the second portion 22 of the handle 20 decreases.
- the figure 4c finally presents the retracted position of the retractable handle.
- the loop 30 of the first portion 21 of the loop 20 and the stop, here the protuberance 43 are spaced from each other with respect to their configuration in the carrying position.
- the second portion 22 of the loop 20 is here flat, applied against the outer face 51 of the support 50 to be as erased as possible.
- the loop 30 is limited in its displacement in the retracted position by the length of the loop 20 with respect to the length and position of the guide lug 40.
- the loop 30 comes, in the retracted position, against another stop, for example formed by another protuberance which would be formed near the end 41 of the guide tab 40.
- the embodiment of the figure 5 differs in that the second end 42 of the guide tab 40 is here positioned and fixed, for example sewn, on the outer face 51 of the support 50.
- the guide lug 40 passes through the slot 60.
- the stop is then here formed by a periphery of the slot 60 as well as by a fold 44 formed by the guide lug 40.
- the portion 45 of the guide lug 40 parallel to the inner face 52 of the support 50 and plated against the inner face 52 of the support 50 when the support 50 is stretched or laid flat, is formed by a portion of the guide lug 40 between the first end 41 and the fold 44.
- the portion 45 of the guide tab 40 as before has a constant width and cooperates with the loop 30 of the first portion 21 of the loop 20 to allow the passer 30 to slide on.
- the portion 45 of the guide tab 40 has a length at least equal to the travel of the passer 30.
- the embodiment of the figure 6 differs, meanwhile, in that the first end 41 and the second end 42 of the guide tab 40 are here positioned and fixed, for example sewn, on the outer face 51 of the support 50.
- the first end 41 of the guide tab 40 passes through a second slot 62 and the second end 42 of the guide tab 40 passes through a third slot 63.
- the third slot 63 through which the second end 42 of the guide tab 40 passes may, according to a particular embodiment, be confused with the slot 60.
- the stop is here also formed by a periphery of the slot 60.
- the portion 45 of the guide tab 40, parallel to the inner face 52 of the support 50 and pressed against the inner face 52 of the support 50 when the support 50 is stretched or laid flat, is, according to this embodiment, formed by a portion of the guide tab 40 which extends from the second slot 62 to at least the slot 60, or even the third slot 63 since it is here positioned after the slot 60 according to the stroke of the passer 30 of the retracted position at the carrying position.
- the portion 45 of the guide lug 40 has a length greater than the travel of the loop 30 and advantageously has a constant width to allow the loop 30 of the first portion 21 of the loop 20 to slide freely on.
- FIGS 7 to 11 represent an example of a bag comprising a retractable handle such as that described above, with two identical ends. It more specifically comprises a first retractable handle, referenced 10-1 on a first blank 71-1, and a second retractable handle, referenced 10-2 on a second blank 71-2.
- the second retractable handle 10-2 is thus visible from an outside face of the blank 71-2 and the first retractable handle 10-1 is visible from an inner face of the first blank 71-1, opposite the second blank 71-2, through an opening 70 of the bag revealing the sliding system.
- the bag is largely flexible.
- the bottom may be flexible, rigid, or semi-rigid. It is mainly composed of the first blank 71-1 and the second blank 71-2, preferably identical, each having an edge 72-1, 72-2 defining an opening 70 through which it is possible to access a contents of the bag .
- first retractable handle 10-1 is positioned on a first side of the opening 70 to access a contents of the bag and the second retractable handle 10-2 is positioned on a second side of the opening 70 .
- the elements relating to the first retractable handle 10-1 are indicated by the same reference numerals as those used for the description of the elements represented on the Figures 2 to 6 , with the suffix "-1", and the elements relating to the second retractable handle 10-2 are indicated by the same numerical references as before with the suffix "-2".
- the description applies generically to an element, whatever the retractable handle to which it belongs, it is indicated without suffix.
- the first blank 71-1 thus forms the support 50-1 of the first retractable handle 10-1.
- the first blank 71-1 has a first slot 60-1, and a second slot 60'-1.
- the flexible loop 20-1 passes through the first slot 60-1 on the one hand and the second slot 60'-1 on the other hand. It comprises the first part 21-1 on the inner side 52-1 of the support 50-1 within the first slot 60-1, the second part 22-1 on the outer face 51-1 of the support 50-1 between the first slot 60-1 and the second slot 60'-1 and a third portion 21'-1 inner side 52-1 of the support 50-1 below the second slot 60'-1.
- the first portion 21-1 of the loop 20-1 comprises a first loop 30-1 and the second portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 has a second loop 30'-1.
- a first guide lug 40-1 and a second guide lug 40'-1 are arranged at least partly on the inner face 52-1 of the support 50-1.
- the first guide lug 40-1 passes through the first passer 30-1 of the first portion 21-1 of the handle 20-1 and the second guide lug 40'-1 passes through the second lead 30'-1 of the third part 21'-1 of Cove 20-1.
- the first retractable handle 10-1 comprises a first stop which is here formed by a protrusion 43-1 of the first guide lug 40-1 and a second abutment which is here formed by a protuberance 43 ' -1 of the second guide lug 40'-1.
- the handle 20-1 is configured to take either a carry position or a retracted position.
- the first passer 30-1 of the first portion 21-1 of the handle 20-1 is in contact with the first stop and the second pass 30'-1 of the third portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 is in contact with the second stop.
- the second portion 22-1 of the handle 20-1 substantially matches the outer face 51-1 of the support 50-1.
- the handle 20-1 then moves from the carrying position to the retracted position by a sliding of the handle 20-1 in the first slot 60-1 and the second slot 60'-1 and a sliding of the first passer 30- 1 of the first portion 21-1 of the loop 20-1 on the first guide lug 40-1 and the second loop 30'-1 of the third portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 on the second guide tab 40'-1.
- the first guide lug 40-1 and the second guide lug 40'-1 of the first retractable handle 10-1 are preferably positioned in the extension of one another so that the handle 20-1 retains a same longitudinal axis as it moves from the carrying position to the retracted position. In addition, they are advantageously positioned parallel to the edge 72-1 of the blank 71-1, which makes it possible to structure the edge 72-1 of the opening 70.
- the second retractable handle 10-2 is here identical to the first retractable handle 10-1 (the description thereof therefore applies to the retractable handle 10-2 by replacing the suffix "-1" by the suffix "-2 ").
- a positioning of the retractable handles 10 parallel to each of the edges 72 of the opening 70, in particular in the retracted position, makes it possible to structure the edges 72 and thus to contribute to maintaining the opening 70 in the closed position.
- the bag further comprises a third additional handle 100-3 and a fourth additional handle 100-4.
- the third additional handle 100-3 has a handle 200-3 and the fourth additional handle 100-4 has a handle 200-4.
- the additional handles 100 may be standard handles, for example similar to that illustrated on the figure 1 . However, they can be of any type, in particular according to the retractable handle according to embodiments of the invention, similar or different.
- each of the additional handles 100 is disposed on a blank 71 so that on each blank 71 a retractable handle 10 is located between an additional handle 100 and an edge 72 of the opening 70.
- the retractable handles 10 form so-called internal handles and the additional handles 100 form so-called external handles.
- internal is meant here the fact that the handle is positioned between another handle and the opening of the bag (and not the fact that the handle would be located inside the bag).
- the inner handles are thus high handles and the outer handles of the low handles when the bag is carried by the internal handles.
- the length of the outer part of the handles of the internal handles (in the carrying position) is advantageously greater than the length of the handles of the external handles, especially for ergonomic reasons.
- the length of the internal handles allows in particular a worn "hollow arm”.
- the illustrated bag thus has four handles, two internal and two external. It is thus configured to have a volume, said large volume, when the bag is carried by the internal handles, and a volume, said small volume, when the bag is carried by the external handles.
- the volume of the bag is thus adjustable according to the needs.
- the figures 8 and 9 show the bag described with reference to the figure 7 configured to be carried by the internal handles which are the retractable handles 10 in the carrying position.
- the additional handles 100 are then preferably retracted to be the least prominent possible.
- the figure 10 shows the bag described with reference to the figure 7 viewed from above, in perspective, in an intermediate position between a position carried by the internal handles, here the retractable handles 10, and a position carried by the external handles, here the additional handles 100.
- the handles retractable members 10 are preferably in the retracted position.
- the figure 11 shows the bag described with reference to the figure 7 in a position to be carried by the external handles.
- the inner handles (which are preferably retractable handles 10) are then retracted. In this position of the bag, they further contribute to the closure of the opening 70 for example and do not interfere with the wear of the bag.
- the fact that the internal handles are retractable responds to an aesthetic concern: the beauty of the top of the bag when it is not held by the internal handles.
- a bag as described above is made at least partially of leather, imitation leather, fabric or any other flexible material or in any assembly of such materials.
- it further comprises a shoulder strap 80 conferring another option to carry the bag.

Description
La présente demande concerne une poignée rétractable.The present application relates to a retractable handle.
Elle concerne plus particulièrement une poignée rétractable pour un article de maroquinerie ou de bagagerie. Il s'agit par exemple d'un article de maroquinerie de type bagagerie souple, par exemple un sac, notamment un sac à main.It relates more particularly to a retractable handle for a leather goods or luggage. This is for example a leather goods flexible luggage type, for example a bag, including a handbag.
Lors de l'utilisation d'un article de maroquinerie ou de bagagerie, il est parfois commode qu'au moins une poignée puisse se rétracter pour prendre le moins de place possible, visuellement et/ou physiquement.When using a leather goods or luggage, it is sometimes convenient that at least one handle can retract to take the least possible space, visually and / or physically.
Il est en outre souhaitable que la poignée demeure suffisamment solide pour supporter l'article et, le cas échéant, son contenu.It is further desirable that the handle remains strong enough to support the article and, where appropriate, its contents.
Cet aspect est particulièrement important pour des articles en cuir, en tissus ou en matériaux similaires pour lesquels une déchirure est, par exemple, souvent irrémédiable, notamment au sens où la recoudre laisserait une trace qui, non seulement d'un point de vue esthétique serait intolérable mais, en plus, d'un point de vue de la solidité de l'article créerait une faiblesse locale qui pourrait conduire plus facilement à une nouvelle déchirure.This aspect is particularly important for leather goods, fabrics or similar materials for which a tear is, for example, often irremediable, especially in the sense that the sewing would leave a trace that not only from an aesthetic point of view would be intolerable but, in addition, from a point of view of the strength of the article would create a local weakness that could lead more easily to a new tear.
Il existe de nombreuses poignées rétractables parmi lesquelles celle représentée sur la
Cependant, une telle poignée présente des inconvénients, notamment en termes de solidité et en ce qui concerne certains de ses aspects pratiques.However, such a handle has drawbacks, particularly in terms of strength and in respect of some of its practical aspects.
La présente invention vise à résoudre au moins en partie les inconvénients précités, menant en outre à d'autres avantages.The present invention aims at solving at least in part the aforementioned drawbacks, further leading to other advantages.
A cet effet, est proposé, selon un premier aspect une poignée rétractable comportant :
- un support qui comporte une face extérieure, une face intérieure et au moins une fente traversante,
- une anse souple qui traverse l'au moins une fente et comporte une première partie côté face intérieure du support et une deuxième partie côté face extérieure du support, la première partie de l'anse comportant au moins un passant,
- au moins une patte de guidage disposée au moins en partie du côté de la face intérieure du support et coopérant avec l'au moins un passant de la première partie de l'anse, et
- au moins une butée,
- une position de portage dans laquelle l'au moins un passant de la première partie de l'anse est en contact avec l'au moins une butée, et
- une position rétractée dans laquelle la deuxième partie de l'anse épouse sensiblement la face extérieure du support,
- a support which has an outer face, an inner face and at least one through slot,
- a flexible loop which passes through the at least one slot and has a first part on the inner side of the support and a second part on the outer face of the support, the first part of the loop comprising at least one passer,
- at least one guide lug disposed at least partly on the side of the inner face of the support and cooperating with the at least one passer of the first part of the handle, and
- at least one stop,
- a carrying position in which the at least one passer of the first part of the handle is in contact with the at least one stop, and
- a retracted position in which the second part of the handle substantially matches the outer face of the support,
Une telle poignée est ainsi apte à coulisser facilement tout en restant solide. Elle permet en outre d'éviter qu'une extrémité de l'anse ne rebique à l'usage.Such a handle is thus able to slide easily while remaining solid. It also makes it possible to prevent one end of the handle from being re-usable.
La présence d'une butée permet de former une fin de course au passant, notamment lorsque l'anse est en position de portage. Une telle butée est en outre de préférence formée du côté de la face intérieure du support.The presence of a stop makes it possible to form an end of the race for the passerby, especially when the handle is in the carrying position. Such an abutment is also preferably formed on the side of the inner face of the support.
La patte de guidage est par exemple fixée au support par une couture, un rivet, un clou ou de la colle. Dans un cas où la patte de guidage est rigide, elle est possiblement fixée par une seule de ses extrémités. Dans un cas où la patte de guidage est souple, elle est de préférence fixée par ses deux extrémités.The guide lug is for example fixed to the support by a seam, a rivet, a nail or glue. In a case where the guide tab is rigid, it is possibly fixed by only one of its ends. In a case where the guide tab is flexible, it is preferably fixed by its two ends.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, l'au moins une butée est formée au moins en partie par l'au moins une fente.According to an exemplary embodiment, the at least one stop is formed at least in part by the at least one slot.
Selon un autre exemple de réalisation, l'au moins une butée est formée au moins en partie par une protubérance de l'au moins une patte de guidage, par exemple en forme de chapeau de gendarme. Ceci permet notamment d'éviter de tirer sur la fente, ce qui pourrait risquer de la déchirer, surtout si l'article auquel est destinée la poignée est très lourd.According to another embodiment, the at least one stop is formed at least in part by a protuberance of the at least one guide lug, for example in the form of a cocked hat. This makes it possible in particular to avoid pulling on the slot, which could risk tearing it, especially if the article for which the handle is intended is very heavy.
Selon une disposition particulière, la protubérance de l'au moins une patte de guidage est formée à proximité de l'au moins une fente. Ceci permet d'obstruer un jour qui serait formé par la fente, et rend la poignée plus esthétique.According to a particular arrangement, the protuberance of the at least one guide lug is formed near the at least one slot. This closes a day that would be formed by the slot, and makes the handle more aesthetic.
Par exemple, au moins une partie de l'au moins une patte de guidage, coopérant avec l'au moins un passant, est parallèle à au moins la face intérieure du support.For example, at least a portion of the at least one guide tab, cooperating with the at least one passer, is parallel to at least the inner face of the support.
De préférence, au moins l'un parmi l'anse, le support et l'au moins une patte de guidage est au moins partiellement en cuir.Preferably, at least one of the loop, the support and the at least one guide lug is at least partially made of leather.
L'autre extrémité de la poignée peut être reliée au support par tout moyen. Elle peut être fixe, ou configurée pour coulisser par tout moyen. Le cas échéant, elle est de préférence configurée pour coulisser par des moyens identiques à ceux présentés précédemment. Ainsi, selon un aspect intéressant de l'invention, est proposée une poignée rétractable présentant tout ou partie des caractéristiques décrites précédemment, selon laquelle :
- le support comporte l'au moins une fente traversante formant une première fente, et une deuxième fente traversante,
- l'anse souple traverse la première fente d'une part et la deuxième fente d'autre part et comporte une première partie côté face intérieure du support en deçà de la première fente, une deuxième partie côté face extérieure du support entre la première fente et la deuxième fente et une troisième partie côté face intérieure du support en deçà de la deuxième fente, la première partie de l'anse comportant l'au moins un passant formant un premier passant, et la troisième partie de l'anse comportant au moins un passant formant un deuxième passant,
- l'au moins une patte de guidage disposée au moins en partie du côté de la face intérieure du support formant une première patte de guidage et une deuxième patte de guidage étant disposée au moins en partie du côté de la face intérieure du support, la première patte de guidage coopérant avec le premier passant de la première partie de l'anse, et la deuxième patte de guidage coopérant avec le deuxième passant de la troisième partie de l'anse, et
- l'au moins une butée formant une première butée, et une deuxième butée,
- la position de portage dans laquelle le premier passant de la première partie de l'anse est en contact avec la première butée et dans laquelle le deuxième passant de la troisième partie de l'anse est en contact avec la deuxième butée, et
- la position rétractée dans laquelle la deuxième partie de l'anse épouse sensiblement la face extérieure du support,
- the support comprises the at least one through slot forming a first slot, and a second through slot,
- the flexible handle passes through the first slot on the one hand and the second slot on the other hand and has a first part on the inner side of the support within the first slot, a second part on the outer side of the support between the first slot and the second slot and a third portion on the inside face of the support below the second slot, the first portion of the loop having the at least one passer forming a first passer, and the third portion of the handle having at least one passing forming a second passer,
- the at least one guide lug disposed at least partly on the side of the inner face of the support forming a first guide lug and a second guide lug being arranged at least partly on the side of the inner face of the support, the first guide tab cooperating with the first passer of the first part of the handle, and the second guide tab cooperating with the second passer of the third part of the handle, and
- the at least one stop forming a first stop, and a second stop,
- the carrying position in which the first passer of the first part of the handle is in contact with the first stop and in which the second pass of the third part of the handle is in contact with the second stop, and
- the retracted position in which the second part of the handle substantially matches the outer face of the support,
Est également proposé, selon un autre aspect de la présente invention, un sac au moins en partie souple comportant au moins une poignée rétractable présentant tout ou partie des caractéristiques décrites précédemment.According to another aspect of the present invention, an at least partially flexible bag comprising at least one retractable handle having all or some of the features described above is also proposed.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, l'au moins une poignée rétractable forme une première poignée rétractable positionnée d'un premier côté d'une ouverture permettant d'accéder à un contenu du sac, le sac comportant en outre au moins une deuxième poignée rétractable présentant tout ou partie des caractéristiques décrites précédemment positionnée d'un deuxième côté de l'ouverture.According to a particular embodiment, the at least one retractable handle forms a first retractable handle positioned on a first side of an opening for accessing a content of the bag, the bag further comprising at least one second retractable handle having all or some of the previously described features positioned on a second side of the opening.
Avantageusement, la première poignée rétractable et la deuxième poignée rétractable sont chacune parallèles à un bord de l'ouverture. Une telle position permet de structurer les bords de l'ouverture, notamment afin que ceux-ci demeurent l'un contre l'autre pour fermer l'ouverture lorsque le sac est porté.Advantageously, the first retractable handle and the second retractable handle are each parallel to an edge of the opening. Such a position allows to structure the edges of the opening, especially so that they remain against each other to close the opening when the bag is worn.
Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre privilégié, le sac comporte en outre deux poignées supplémentaires, appelées troisième poignée et quatrième poignée. Ceci permet de disposer d'un sac avec quatre poignées afin de le porter différemment selon les besoins.According to a preferred mode of implementation, the bag further comprises two additional handles, called third handle and fourth handle. This allows to have a bag with four handles to wear it differently as needed.
Les poignées rétractables forment alors des poignées dites internes et les poignées supplémentaires forment des poignées dites externes. Par « interne », il convient d'entendre ici le fait que la poignée soit positionnée entre une autre poignée et l'ouverture du sac (et non le fait que la poignée serait située à l'intérieur du sac). Lorsque le sac est porté par les poignées rétractables (internes), les poignées internes sont ainsi des poignées hautes et les poignées externes des poignées basses.The retractable handles then form so-called internal handles and the additional handles form so-called external handles. By "internal" is meant here the fact that the handle is positioned between another handle and the opening of the bag (and not the fact that the handle would be located inside the bag). When the bag is carried by the retractable handles (internal), the internal handles are thus high handles and the external handles of the low handles.
Par exemple, la première poignée rétractable est située entre la troisième poignée et l'ouverture et la deuxième poignée rétractable est située entre la quatrième poignée et l'ouverture.For example, the first retractable handle is located between the third handle and the opening and the second retractable handle is located between the fourth handle and the opening.
Avantageusement, l'anse de la première poignée rétractable et l'anse de la deuxième poignée rétractable (en position de portage) ont une longueur égale ou supérieure à une longueur d'une anse de la troisième poignée et d'une anse de la quatrième poignée. Ainsi, en position de portage, la longueur des poignées internes permet notamment un porté « creux de bras ».Advantageously, the handle of the first retractable handle and the handle of the second retractable handle (in the carrying position) have a length equal to or greater than a length of a handle of the third handle and a handle of the fourth handle. Thus, in the carrying position, the length of the internal handles allows in particular a worn "hollow arm".
Selon un mode de réalisation particulièrement intéressant, l'anse de la première poignée rétractable et l'anse de la deuxième poignée rétractable prennent la position rétractée dans une position du sac porté par la troisième poignée et la quatrième poignée. Dans cette position, les poignées rétractables contribuent ainsi à la fermeture de l'ouverture par exemple et ne gênent pas le porté du sac. De plus, le fait que les poignées internes soient rétractables répond à un souci esthétique : la beauté du dessus du sac quand il n'est pas tenu par les poignées internes.According to a particularly interesting embodiment, the handle of the first retractable handle and the handle of the second retractable handle take the retracted position in a position of the bag carried by the third handle and the fourth handle. In this position, the retractable handles thus contribute to the closure of the opening, for example, and do not hinder the wearing of the bag. In addition, the fact that the internal handles are retractable responds to an aesthetic concern: the beauty of the top of the bag when it is not held by the internal handles.

En référence aux
Le support 50 comporte une face extérieure 51, une face intérieure 52 et une fente traversante 60 à travers laquelle passe l'anse 20. La fente 60 a ici une forme de demi-lune, pour former une languette 61 recouvrant une partie de l'anse 20. Elle permet de faciliter et guider un coulissement de l'anse 20 dans la fente 60 et d'éviter qu'un jour n'apparaisse, ce qui améliore l'esthétique.The
Les termes « extérieur » et « intérieur » sont bien entendu utilisés ici par convention, selon un mode normal d'utilisation, pour faciliter la description qui suit. La face du support décrite comme étant la face extérieure est ainsi typiquement orientée du côté de l'article où se trouve la partie de la poignée destinée à être saisie, c'est-à-dire généralement la partie centrale de l'anse.The terms "outside" and "inside" are of course used here by convention, according to a normal mode of use, to facilitate the description which follows. The face of the support described as being the outer face is thus typically oriented on the side of the article where is the portion of the handle to be input, that is to say generally the central portion of the handle.
L'anse 20, ici souple, comporte une première partie 21 située du côté de la face intérieure 52 du support 50 et une deuxième partie 22 située du côté de la face extérieure 51 du support 50. La deuxième partie 22 forme, au moins partiellement, la partie de la poignée destinée à être saisie.The
La première partie 21 de l'anse 20 comporte un passant 30 qui entoure ici la patte de guidage 40. Le passant 30 est ici situé à une extrémité libre de la première partie 21 de l'anse 20. Ceci permet notamment d'économiser de la matière, d'offrir une longue course à l'anse 20 et/ou d'éviter qu'une partie de l'anse 20 qui se prolongerait au-delà du passant 30 ne rebique ou ne gêne le coulissement de l'anse 20. Selon l'exemple illustré, le passant 30 est plus large que la première partie 21 de l'anse 20. Il est en outre, de préférence, plus large que la fente 60 pour éviter qu'il ne passe à travers.The
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, l'anse 20 est élargie vers une zone centrale par rapport à ses extrémités, c'est-à-dire typiquement en sa deuxième partie 22. Un tel élargissement permet une meilleure ergonomie. Ceci permet aussi de freiner un passage de l'anse 20 à travers la fente 60, voire éviter que l'anse 20 ne puisse passer entièrement par la fente 60, notamment lorsque l'anse n'est pas encore reliée par au moins l'une de ses extrémités à un autre élément, comme par exemple une patte de guidage.According to a particular embodiment, the
Comme illustré, la patte de guidage 40 est ici disposée du côté de la face intérieure 52 du support 50. Dans le présent exemple de réalisation, la patte de guidage 40 est cousue sur la face intérieure 52 du support 50 par sa première extrémité 41 et par sa deuxième extrémité 42. Elle est par exemple réalisée au moins partiellement en cuir ce qui lui confère une certaine solidité et de la souplesse. Dans un autre mode de réalisation non représenté, si la patte de guidage était réalisée par exemple par une tige de métal, une fixation par une seule extrémité pourrait suffire.As illustrated, the
Ainsi, la patte de guidage 40 est ici sensiblement parallèle à la face intérieure 52 du support 50. Elle est par exemple plaquée contre la face intérieure 52 du support 50 lorsque le support 50 est tendu ou mis à plat.Thus, the
La patte de guidage 40 présente au moins une partie 45 entre ses deux extrémités 41 et 42. La largeur de cette partie est ici constante et coopère avec le passant 30 de la première partie 21 de l'anse 20 pour permettre au passant 30 de coulisser librement dessus. Selon un autre mode de réalisation envisageable non représenté, la partie 45 de la patte de guidage 40 peut présenter une forme oblongue (dans sa largeur) ou bombée (dans son épaisseur), sensiblement élargie vers son milieu, de sorte à former un frein pour favoriser le maintien de l'anse 20 en position de portage ou en position rétractée. La deuxième extrémité 42 présente ici une protubérance 43 en forme de chapeau de gendarme qui fait office de butée à une course du passant 30 lorsqu'il coulisse sur la partie 45 de la patte de guidage 40.The
En outre, la deuxième extrémité 42 est ici cousue sur la face intérieure 52 du support 50, à proximité de la fente 60, de sorte que la protubérance 43 recouvre au moins en partie la fente 60 du côté de la face intérieure 52. Ceci permet notamment de masquer la fente 60 d'un côté pour éviter qu'un jour n'apparaisse. Ceci est renforcé par la présence de la languette 61 de la fente 60.In addition, the
De plus, la protubérance 43 est ainsi située en amont de la fente 60 par rapport à la course du passant 30 sur la patte de guidage 40, ce qui permet d'éviter que le passant 30 ne vienne en butée sur la fente 60 et ne tire dessus, ce qui pourrait l'endommager ou la déchirer. Ainsi, dans le mode de réalisation décrit ici et représenté, en particulier, sur la
La poignée rétractable 10 comporte ainsi une butée formée ici par la protubérance 43. Cependant, elle pourrait toutefois être formée de façon différente, par exemple par un pourtour de la fente 60 ou par tout élément rapporté. La butée permet de manière générale de former une fin de course pour le passant 30 lorsque l'anse 20 est dans la position de portage. Elle est de préférence formée du côté de la face intérieure 52 du support 50.The
Optionnellement, comme représenté ici, la patte de guidage 40 est positionnée parallèlement à un bord 53 du support 50. Une telle disposition permet notamment de structurer le bord 53.Optionally, as shown here, the
Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'anse 20 est configurée pour prendre au moins deux positions :
- une position de portage dans laquelle le passant 30 de la première partie 21 de l'anse 20 est en contact avec la butée, et
- une position rétractée dans laquelle la deuxième partie 22 de l'anse 20 épouse sensiblement la
face extérieure 51 dusupport 50,
- a carrying position in which the
loop 30 of thefirst portion 21 of theloop 20 is in contact with the stop, and - a retracted position in which the
second portion 22 of thehandle 20 substantially matches theouter face 51 of thesupport 50,
Une coopération entre le passant 30 et la patte de guidage 40 permet notamment d'éviter que l'extrémité de la poignée 20 ne rebique à l'usure. En effet, elle est guidée (et donc contrainte) par la patte de guidage 40 qui suit (au moins par sa partie 45) la face intérieure 52 du support 50. La partie 45 de la patte de guidage 40 qui suit la face intérieure 52 du support 50 a, de préférence, une longueur égale ou supérieure à une course du passant définie entre la position de portage et la position rétractée de la poignée 20.A cooperation between the
Ces positions et le passage de l'une à l'autre sont illustrés par les
La
Dans cette position, la première partie 21 de l'anse 20 (c'est-à-dire la partie de l'anse située du côté de la face intérieure du support 50) est très réduite, notamment par le fait que la butée formée par la protubérance 43 est située à proximité immédiate de la fente 60. Ceci permet de disposer d'une longueur d'anse 20 pour un utilisateur la plus grande possible, c'est-à-dire pour que la deuxième partie 22 de l'anse 20 soit la plus longue possible. Ceci permet également de limiter les risques de pliage du support 50 sous l'effet du poids. Ainsi, une telle protubérance positionnée à une extrémité de la patte de guidage 40 permet de conférer une grande course à l'anse 20 tout en contribuant à éviter qu'un jour n'apparaisse par la fente 60.In this position, the

Ici, le passant 30 est limité dans son déplacement en position rétractée par la longueur de l'anse 20 par rapport à la longueur et la position de la patte de guidage 40.Here, the
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, le passant 30 vient, en position rétractée, contre une autre butée, par exemple formée par une autre protubérance qui serait formée près de l'extrémité 41 de la patte de guidage 40.According to a particular embodiment, the

La butée est ici également formée par un pourtour de la fente 60. La partie 45 de la patte de guidage 40, parallèle à la face intérieure 52 du support 50 et plaquée contre la face intérieure 52 du support 50 lorsque le support 50 est tendu ou mis à plat, est, selon ce mode de réalisation, formée par une portion de la patte de guidage 40 qui s'étend depuis la deuxième fente 62 jusqu'au moins la fente 60, voire la troisième fente 63 puisque celle-ci est ici positionnée après la fente 60 selon la course du passant 30 de la position rétractée à la position de portage. Ainsi, la partie 45 de la patte de guidage 40 a une longueur supérieure à la course du passant 30 et présente avantageusement une largeur constante pour permettre au passant 30 de la première partie 21 de l'anse 20 de coulisser librement dessus.The stop is here also formed by a periphery of the
Dans un mode de réalisation particulièrement commode de la présente invention, l'autre partie de la poignée rétractable 10, non représentée sur les

Selon ce mode de réalisation, le sac est en grande partie souple. A titre d'illustration, le fond peut être souple, rigide, ou semi-rigide. Il est principalement composé du premier flan 71-1 et du deuxième flan 71-2, de préférence identiques, présentant chacun un bord 72-1, 72-2 délimitant une ouverture 70 par laquelle il est possible d'accéder à un contenu du sac.According to this embodiment, the bag is largely flexible. As an illustration, the bottom may be flexible, rigid, or semi-rigid. It is mainly composed of the first blank 71-1 and the second blank 71-2, preferably identical, each having an edge 72-1, 72-2 defining an
Ainsi, la première poignée rétractable 10-1 est positionnée d'un premier côté de l'ouverture 70 permettant d'accéder à un contenu du sac et la deuxième poignée rétractable 10-2 est positionnée d'un deuxième côté de l'ouverture 70.Thus, the first retractable handle 10-1 is positioned on a first side of the
Dans un souci de clarté, les éléments relatifs à la première poignée rétractable 10-1 sont indiqués par les mêmes références numériques que celles utilisées pour la description des éléments représentés sur les
Le premier flan 71-1 forme ainsi le support 50-1 de la première poignée rétractable 10-1. Le premier flan 71-1 comporte une première fente 60-1, et une deuxième fente 60'-1. L'anse souple 20-1 traverse la première fente 60-1 d'une part et la deuxième fente 60'-1 d'autre part. Elle comporte la première partie 21-1 côté face intérieure 52-1 du support 50-1 en deçà de la première fente 60-1, la deuxième partie 22-1 côté face extérieure 51-1 du support 50-1 entre la première fente 60-1 et la deuxième fente 60'-1 et une troisième partie 21'-1 côté face intérieure 52-1 du support 50-1 en deçà de la deuxième fente 60'-1. La première partie 21-1 de l'anse 20-1 comporte un premier passant 30-1 et la deuxième partie 21'-1 de l'anse 20-1 comporte un deuxième passant 30'-1.The first blank 71-1 thus forms the support 50-1 of the first retractable handle 10-1. The first blank 71-1 has a first slot 60-1, and a second slot 60'-1. The flexible loop 20-1 passes through the first slot 60-1 on the one hand and the second slot 60'-1 on the other hand. It comprises the first part 21-1 on the inner side 52-1 of the support 50-1 within the first slot 60-1, the second part 22-1 on the outer face 51-1 of the support 50-1 between the first slot 60-1 and the second slot 60'-1 and a third portion 21'-1 inner side 52-1 of the support 50-1 below the second slot 60'-1. The first portion 21-1 of the loop 20-1 comprises a first loop 30-1 and the second portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 has a second loop 30'-1.
Une première patte de guidage 40-1 et une deuxième patte de guidage 40'-1 sont disposées au moins en partie sur la face intérieure 52-1 du support 50-1. La première patte de guidage 40-1 traverse le premier passant 30-1 de la première partie 21-1 de l'anse 20-1 et la deuxième patte de guidage 40'-1 traverse le deuxième passant 30'-1 de la troisième partie 21'-1 de l'anse 20-1.A first guide lug 40-1 and a second guide lug 40'-1 are arranged at least partly on the inner face 52-1 of the support 50-1. The first guide lug 40-1 passes through the first passer 30-1 of the first portion 21-1 of the handle 20-1 and the second guide lug 40'-1 passes through the second lead 30'-1 of the third part 21'-1 of Cove 20-1.
De même que précédemment, la première poignée rétractable 10-1 comprend une première butée qui est ici formée par une protubérance 43-1 de la première patte de guidage 40-1 ainsi qu'une deuxième butée qui est ici formée par une protubérance 43'-1 de la deuxième patte de guidage 40'-1.As before, the first retractable handle 10-1 comprises a first stop which is here formed by a protrusion 43-1 of the first guide lug 40-1 and a second abutment which is here formed by a protuberance 43 ' -1 of the second guide lug 40'-1.
Ainsi, l'anse 20-1 est configurée pour prendre soit une position de portage soit une position rétractée. Dans la position de portage, le premier passant 30-1 de la première partie 21-1 de l'anse 20-1 est en contact avec la première butée et le deuxième passant 30'-1 de la troisième partie 21'-1 de l'anse 20-1 est en contact avec la deuxième butée. Dans la position rétractée, la deuxième partie 22-1 de l'anse 20-1 épouse sensiblement la face extérieure 51-1 du support 50-1.Thus, the handle 20-1 is configured to take either a carry position or a retracted position. In the carrying position, the first passer 30-1 of the first portion 21-1 of the handle 20-1 is in contact with the first stop and the second pass 30'-1 of the third portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 is in contact with the second stop. In the retracted position, the second portion 22-1 of the handle 20-1 substantially matches the outer face 51-1 of the support 50-1.
L'anse 20-1 passe alors de la position de portage à la position rétractée par un coulissement de l'anse 20-1 dans la première fente 60-1 et la deuxième fente 60'-1 et un coulissement du premier passant 30-1 de la première partie 21-1 de l'anse 20-1 sur la première patte de guidage 40-1 et du deuxième passant 30'-1 de la troisième partie 21'-1 de l'anse 20-1 sur la deuxième patte de guidage 40'-1.The handle 20-1 then moves from the carrying position to the retracted position by a sliding of the handle 20-1 in the first slot 60-1 and the second slot 60'-1 and a sliding of the first passer 30- 1 of the first portion 21-1 of the loop 20-1 on the first guide lug 40-1 and the second loop 30'-1 of the third portion 21'-1 of the loop 20-1 on the second guide tab 40'-1.
La première patte de guidage 40-1 et la deuxième patte de guidage 40'-1 de la première poignée rétractable 10-1 sont de préférence positionnées dans le prolongement l'une de l'autre pour que l'anse 20-1 conserve un même axe longitudinal lorsqu'elle passe de la position de portage à la position rétractée. De plus, elles sont avantageusement positionnées de façon parallèle au bord 72-1 du flan 71-1, ce qui permet de structurer le bord 72-1 de l'ouverture 70.The first guide lug 40-1 and the second guide lug 40'-1 of the first retractable handle 10-1 are preferably positioned in the extension of one another so that the handle 20-1 retains a same longitudinal axis as it moves from the carrying position to the retracted position. In addition, they are advantageously positioned parallel to the edge 72-1 of the blank 71-1, which makes it possible to structure the edge 72-1 of the
La deuxième poignée rétractable 10-2 est ici identique à la première poignée rétractable 10-1 (la description de celle-ci s'applique donc à la poignée rétractable 10-2 en remplaçant le suffixe « -1 » par le suffixe « -2 »).The second retractable handle 10-2 is here identical to the first retractable handle 10-1 (the description thereof therefore applies to the retractable handle 10-2 by replacing the suffix "-1" by the suffix "-2 ").
Un positionnement des poignées rétractables 10 parallèlement à chacun des bords 72 de l'ouverture 70, notamment en position rétractée, permet de structurer les bords 72 et, ainsi, de contribuer à un maintien en position fermée de l'ouverture 70.A positioning of the
Dans le présent exemple de réalisation, le sac comporte en outre une troisième poignée supplémentaire 100-3 et une quatrième poignée supplémentaire 100-4.In the present embodiment, the bag further comprises a third additional handle 100-3 and a fourth additional handle 100-4.
La troisième poignée supplémentaire 100-3 comporte une anse 200-3 et la quatrième poignée supplémentaire 100-4 comporte une anse 200-4. Les poignées supplémentaires 100 peuvent être des poignées standard, par exemple analogues à celle illustrée sur la
Ici, chacune des poignées supplémentaires 100 est disposée sur un flan 71 de sorte que, sur chaque flan 71, une poignée rétractable 10 est située entre une poignée supplémentaire 100 et un bord 72 de l'ouverture 70.Here, each of the additional handles 100 is disposed on a blank 71 so that on each blank 71 a
Ainsi, selon ce mode de réalisation, les poignées rétractables 10 forment des poignées dites internes et les poignées supplémentaires 100 forment des poignées dites externes. Par « interne », il convient d'entendre ici le fait que la poignée soit positionnée entre une autre poignée et l'ouverture du sac (et non le fait que la poignée serait située à l'intérieur du sac). Eu égard à la configuration du sac illustré, les poignées internes sont ainsi des poignées hautes et les poignées externes des poignées basses lorsque le sac est porté par les poignées internes.Thus, according to this embodiment, the
La longueur de la partie extérieure des anses des poignées internes (en position de portage) est avantageusement supérieure à la longueur des anses des poignées externes, notamment pour des raisons ergonomiques. Ainsi, la longueur des poignées internes permet notamment un porté « creux de bras ».The length of the outer part of the handles of the internal handles (in the carrying position) is advantageously greater than the length of the handles of the external handles, especially for ergonomic reasons. Thus, the length of the internal handles allows in particular a worn "hollow arm".
Le sac illustré comporte ainsi quatre poignées, deux internes et deux externes. Il est ainsi configuré pour disposer d'un volume, dit grand volume, lorsque le sac est porté par les poignées internes, et d'un volume, dit petit volume, lorsque le sac est porté par les poignées externes. Le volume du sac est ainsi ajustable en fonction des besoins.The illustrated bag thus has four handles, two internal and two external. It is thus configured to have a volume, said large volume, when the bag is carried by the internal handles, and a volume, said small volume, when the bag is carried by the external handles. The volume of the bag is thus adjustable according to the needs.
Dans le cas où le sac est très rempli, nécessitant de disposer d'un grand volume, ce qui engendre souvent une surcharge de poids, les poignées internes (poignées rétractables 10), qui ont la capacité de supporter des contraintes plus importantes, sont ainsi utilisables.In the case where the bag is very full, requiring a large volume, which often causes weight overload, the internal handles (retractable handles 10), which have the capacity to withstand greater stresses, are thus usable.

Dans cette position, les flans 71 du sac sont recourbés et les poignées externes se trouvent alors à un sommet.In this position, the blanks 71 of the bag are curved and the outer handles are then at a vertex.
Il est observé ici que, bien que l'exemple précédemment décrit fasse référence à des poignées internes qui soient des poignées rétractables selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, d'autres types de poignées peuvent être utilisées.It is observed here that, although the example described above refers to internal handles that are retractable handles according to one embodiment of the invention, other types of handles can be used.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, un sac tel que décrit précédemment est réalisé au moins partiellement en cuir, en similicuir, en tissu ou tout autre matériau souple ou dans tout assemblage de tels matériaux.According to a particular embodiment, a bag as described above is made at least partially of leather, imitation leather, fabric or any other flexible material or in any assembly of such materials.
Optionnellement, il comprend en outre une bandoulière 80 conférant une autre option pour porter le sac.Optionally, it further comprises a
Naturellement, la présente invention ne se limite ni à la description précédente ni aux figures annexées mais s'étend à toute variante à la portée de l'homme du métier pour, notamment, satisfaire des besoins spécifiques.Naturally, the present invention is not limited to the foregoing description or the appended figures but extends to any variant within the scope of the skilled person to, in particular, meet specific needs.
