Abstract

1354857 Bags J R ROSENBLUM 20 June 1972 [12 July 1971] 28861/72 Heading A4G [Also in Division B8] A bag assembly comprises a larger bag; a smaller bag; means to detachably connect the two so that the smaller bag is alongside and totally outside the larger bag; carrying means, e.g. handle or shoulder strap 36, which can either be connected to the larger bag or to the smaller bag as desired. When the bags are connected together the handle or strap 36 is attached to the larger bag and the assembly is carried as a unit. The smaller bag can be detached and used alone, either with or without the carrying means. The connection is preferably by snap fasteners arranged on a flap 84 of the smaller bag cooperating with mating fasteners on the interior of an exterior pocket 50 of the larger bag. This exterior pocket may be closed by further snap fasteners. Both bags are preferably closed by slide fasteners and are both lined, at 40 and 76, and preferably both have interior pockets 44, 80 closable by slide fasteners. The larger bag may fit over, and be detachably connected, as by snap fasteners, to an open-topped box 90 having a resilient strap 104 therein to retain bottles.
