Description
- CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60/296,684 filed Jun. 6, 2001.
- The present invention relates to the field of backpacks, and, more specifically, to a backpack having a pouch specifically adapted for carrying a toy such as a teddy bear.
- Previously backpacks of a wide variety of constructions have been known. There are fewer backpacks designed particularly with children in mind, with a view to their smaller body structure and the interest children have for carrying with them specific types of items, especially favorite toys. Many children are fond of, or in the habit of, carrying with them for comfort a specific item. In many cases this item is a stuffed animal, such as a “teddy” bear. However, there are not known any previous attempts to provide a backpack for children which is especially constructed to receive and securely retain in a part thereof a teddy bear, especially in a manner by which the toy bear can be easily viewed and accessed tactilely for play or comfort. In addition to a favorite comfort toy, a child may also need or wish to have on hand many other items, such a clothing, snacks, books and additional toys. Thus, a child's backpack must be able to accommodate a significant volume. Even though a teddy bear may be light weight, it can be rather bulky, and if it must be placed inside the main compartment of a child's backpack the toy will consume most, if not the entire space in the main compartment, leaving little or no room to accommodate others of the objects desired to be carried by the child.
- The present invention provides just such a backpack, with a special extra pouch designed especially to securely receive a teddy bear or other stuffed toy or a doll, wherein the toy appears to be riding in the backpack but can be readily accessed. The toy pouch is independent of the main compartment of the backpack. In an alternative embodiment the invention includes an additional, smaller, toy backpack, of such a size that it can be used to hold very small items, such as toys, or change, and may be used during play as a backpack suitable for placing on a toy or doll.
- Thus, among the several goals of the present invention is to provide a backpack construction which is especially suitable for children and which includes a selectively openable and closeable pouch for holding a toy such as a teddy bear, or other stuffed toy or doll, in a position which provides visibility of the toy and easy accessibility, as though the teddy bear is “riding” in the pack. In addition, the backpack holds any items which may be carried in other compartments of the backpack. The construction of the present invention also causes the toy or doll to be securely retained in the pouch in a carrying position, even when the backpack is being worn by a very active child.
- Accordingly, in furtherance of the above goals, the present invention is, briefly, a backpack having a main body portion with front and rear walls. The backpack has at least one shoulder strap connected to the rear wall of the main body portion to facilitate carrying of the backpack on the user's body, and a pouch mounted to the front wall of the main body portion. The pouch has a top, bottom and opposed side edges and is connected to the main body portion along the bottom and two side edges. The top edge is not connected to the main body portion. The pouch is adapted along the bottom edge to be opened to permit passage therethrough of a lower portion of a toy to be carried in the pouch.
- These and other advantages of the invention will be in part apparent and in part described hereinbelow.
- FIG. 1 is an upper front perspective view of a backpack in accordance with the present invention, shown in the closed position.
- FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the backpack shown in FIG. 1, partially cut away to illustrate internal features of the invention.
- FIG. 3 is an upper front perspective view of the new backpack with the front pouch shown in open position.
- FIG. 4 is a bottom plan view of FIG. 3.
- FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view of the backpack of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 6 is a left side elevational view of the backpack of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the backpack of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 8 is a right side elevational view thereof.
- FIG. 9 is a bottom plan view of the new backpack as shown in FIG. 8.
- FIG. 10 is an upper front perspective view of another embodiment of the new backpack, illustrating an optional mini-backpack attachment.
- FIG. 11 is a right side elevational view of the backpack of FIG. 10, the opposite side being a mirror image thereof.
- FIG. 12 is a bottom plan view of the backpack of FIG. 11.
- Throughout the drawings, like parts are indicated by like element numbers.
- With reference to the drawings,
element number 10 generally designates a backpack constructed in accordance with and embodying the present invention. - FIGS.1-9 illustrate that
backpack 10 has amain body portion 12 with twopockets main body 12 and afront pouch 18.Shoulder straps 20 are shown in FIG. 5 connected to the back ofmain body portion 12 to facilitate carrying ofbackpack 10 on a user's back. FIGS. 10-12 illustrate an alternative version ofbackpack 10 with anoptional miniature pack 22 connected thereto, as will be described in further detail hereafter. It is to be understood that the overall form ofbackpack 12, as shown, is preferred, but that it could vary substantially without compromising other aspects of the invention, which includefront pouch 18, as will be described later herein. -
Backpack 10 is preferably sized appropriately for wearing by a small child, but could be sized for larger children or adults as well.Main body portion 12 is preferably composed of a front wall 24 and aback wall 26 with an interveningside wall 28 connected by sewing or other conventional methods between the front and back walls of the main body portion so that the walls define therein a main compartment indicated at 30 in FIG. 2. As shown the front andback walls 24, 26 are illustrated as being substantially flat and the interveningside wall 28 curves somewhat at the top of the backpack and is substantially flat on the bottom thereof. However, themain body portion 12 could take alternative shapes, such as a less structured, bag form, for example. -
Main compartment 30 is suitable for carrying relatively large bulky items and the twoside pockets compartments pockets backpack 10. An optional carrying or hangingstrap 36 is illustrated in phantom, as seen in FIGS. 1-3. - FIG. 2 shows an internal strap38 which is secured within the
main compartment 30, for example, by sewing or other secure connection of the strap ends to an internal seam of themain body 12. Preferably strap 38 is sewn into aseam 40 connecting the top wall and back walls ofmain body 12. Strap 38 can have many uses, but is ideally suited for receiving the hook portion of hangars provided with toy clothes as accessories to teddy bears or other stuffed animal toys. Bearing in mind that the construction ofbackpack 10, and particularly ofmain body portion 12, can vary substantially and still be within the scope of the invention, it is anticipated that strap 38 can be omitted altogether. Strap 38 can also be connected by a different method or be substituted with a different material or structure, such as a wire loop, for example, and still be within the scope of the invention. - The cut-away view of FIG. 2 also illustrates a preferably
transparent panel 42 glued or otherwise attached to the inside ofback wall 26 ofmain body 12 to provide a place for an identification tag or other optional information to be visibly stored. - With reference to FIGS.1-4,
front pouch 18 is formed of a pocket portion having a wall 44, which pocket is connected by sewing, gluing or other suitable methods to the front of main body portion on twoopposed side edges bottom edge 50 and has an open, unattachedupper edge 52. The open upper end ofpouch 18 provides upper access to aninternal area 56 of the pouch within which a teddy bear (shown in phantom at 70 in FIG. 3) or other toy can “sit”.Upper edge 52 may be provided with some elasticity by known means, in order to be biased loosely inwardly. - When it is desired that
pouch 18 be covered, aflap 58 can be allowed to fall downwardly over opening 56 and may be connected by a hook andloop fastening mechanism 60 or other suitable closures. The bottom ofpouch 18 is made selectively openable preferably by azipper 62 or other suitable alternative openable closures. Thus thefront pouch 18 can be used in closed position to carry small or loose items, or it can be used as primarily intended to receive a teddy bear and provides room for the bear's legs to extend through the opening, as illustrated in FIG. 3. - A further key feature of
new backpack 10 is also found inpouch 18, wherein astrap 64 or other suitable elongated member is connected at one end withinpouch 18 to the front wall of the main body portion, and at the opposite end to the wall 44 ofpouch 18, substantially centrally and longitudinally withinpouch 18. The strap is preferably connected as shown, to theseam connecting flap 58 to the front ofmain body portion 12 and to an outermost edge 66 of the opening formed whenzipper 62 is open.Strap 64 provides an added degree of security if the teddy bear, or other doll or toy, is placed inpouch 18 with a foot on each side of the strap and the strap therefor passing beneath, supporting the bear in the pouch and preventing it from dropping through the bottom opening to the ground. The elasticity which can be added to edge 66 can also help to retain the bear inpouch 18 if achild carrying backpack 10 with the bear inpouch 18 becomes very active. Thepresent backpack 10construction including pouch 18 is not previously known in the art. - FIGS.10-1 2 illustrate an alternative, or optional feature of the present invention, a miniature, preferably simplified
backpack 22 which includes amain body portion 112, withshoulder straps 120 and afront pouch 118 having a top closing flap 348 constructed similarly tobackpack 10, except that front pouch is not adapted to open at the bottom for insertion of a teddy bear. Rather, it is sized so that it may be placed over the arms and on the back of a doll or small stuffed animal, if desired.Mini pack 22 is connected tobackpack 10 by a snap and loop attachment, illustrated at 68, or by other suitable, conventional connection mechanisms. - In all versions illustrated, when zippers are used, the zipper pull tabs may be formed, if desired to a particular logo shape, as shown, or may be conventionally formed.
- In view of the foregoing, it will be seen that the several objects of the invention are achieved and other advantages are attained. Although the foregoing includes a description of the best mode contemplated for carrying out the invention, various modifications are conceivable.
- As various modifications could be made in the constructions and methods herein described and illustrated without departing from the scope of the invention it is intended that all matter contained in the foregoing description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative rather than limiting.
