Abstract
Description
- Generally, the invention relates to a bag containing a separate compartment for a product. More specifically, the invention relates to a carrying bag containing a separate compartment configured to carry a sports product.
- Carrying bags have evolved from simple means used by a human for carrying objects to fashion articles that, apart from the primary function of carrying objects, must at least convey a user-desired appearance and image to others. This evolution has also been observed for carrying bags for sports products, such as sports balls.
- Sports products, such as sports balls, have evolved to become fashion articles as well. The brand of a sports product is extremely relevant in particular circles. Also, the outer appearance of a sports product of a user has become relevant to convey a personal message or image to others. An example of a sports ball of which the outer appearance can be varied to a great extent is disclosed in US 2006/0229149. Therefore, a desire exists for a carrying bag that is not only fashionable in itself, but is also capable of showing the fashionable sports product when carrying the bag.
- US 2006/0207900 discloses a bag for carrying a sports ball and other items. The bag has a ball compartment that is separate from other compartments and configured to receive and hold a sports ball. The ball compartment is adapted to conform to the shape of the sports ball. The ball compartment may be formed such that a portion of the sports ball is exposed to the outside world when carrying the bag. The ball compartment comprises a flexible net as a cover part.
- Although the prior art carrying bag fulfils some of the fashion requirements of users, the carrying bag suffers from problems relating to practical use of the bag.
- It is an object of the invention to improve the practical use of a carrying bag while meeting the fashion requirement of exposure of at least a portion of the sports product to the outside world.
- To that end, a carrying bag is proposed comprising a first compartment and a second compartment, separate from the first compartment. At least one of the first compartment and the second compartment is configured to receive a sports product. The compartment contains an opening such that, in use, a portion of said product is exposable to the outside world. The first compartment is arranged above said second compartment in a carrying position of the carrying bag.
- In contrast with the prior art carrying bag having the compartments arranged beside each other in a carrying position of the bag, the first and second carrying bag are arranged over each other in this position. As a consequence of the vertical placement of the compartments, the manoeuvrability of a user carrying the bag is improved. Also, the arrangement of the compartments improves the weight distribution allowing the bag e.g. to stand upright when the bag is placed on the ground.
- Moreover, a carrying bag is proposed comprising a first compartment and a second compartment. At least one of the first compartment and second compartment is configured to receive a sports ball and contains an opening such that, in use, a portion of the sports ball is exposable to the outside world. The compartment configured to receive said sports ball contains at least a wall portion defining the opening and comprising a rubber material, preferably neoprene™.
- The ball compartment of the prior art carrying bag contains a flexible net. Such a net is sensitive to damage, does not protect the sports product appropriately, has an unattractive appearance and does not fully embrace the sports product. Using a rubber material, such as a synthetic rubber material (e.g. neoprene™), improves the robustness, product protection security for the sports ball and attractive appearance of the of the compartment holding the sports ball.
- The invention also relates to a combination of a carrying bag and a sports ball and to a method of manufacturing a carrying bag.
- Further advantageous embodiments and advantages of the invention are defined in the dependent claims and the following description.
- The invention will be further illustrated with reference to the attached drawings, which schematically show preferred embodiments according to the invention. It will be understood that the invention is not in any way restricted to these specific and preferred embodiments.
