Description
- The present invention relates to container sacks, and more specifically to an impermeable bag for holding articles.
- Container sacks such as bags are typically used for carrying articles such as cell phones, cameras and the like. However, a problem arises when a user is carrying the articles in a bag while performing outdoor water activities, such as kayaking, canoeing, rafting, water sports, and the like. While performing the outdoor water activities, water may seep through the bag and cause damage to sensitive items that the user may be carrying. Examples of the sensitive items include cell phones, digital cameras, Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment, maps, documents and currency notes.
- Waterproof bags are available for carrying the sensitive items while the user is performing the outdoor water activities. The waterproof bags require suitable sealing mechanisms to prevent the water from entering into the waterproof bags, so that the said sensitive items may not be damaged. Several sealing mechanisms are typically available to seal the waterproof bags. One sealing mechanism involves folding a waterproof bag several times, thereby reducing storage space that is required for storing the items. Another sealing mechanism involves a sliding-fastening element present on the waterproof bag for closing and opening the waterproof bag. The sliding-fastening element includes a grasping member that facilitates the user in operating the sealing mechanism. The grasping member is attached to the sliding-fastening element through a knob. While performing a sliding motion of the knob on the sliding-fastening element, the grasping member may break, thereby causing inconvenience to the user in opening or closing the waterproof bag. Moreover, the waterproof bags are often inconvenient to hold when the user is performing the outdoor water activities.
- Accordingly, there is a need for a waterproof bag for holding articles dry while performing outdoor water activities. Further, there is need for a sealing mechanism in the waterproof bag that is convenient to use for opening or closing the waterproof bag, and simultaneously, prevents water from seeping into the waterproof bag. Moreover, there is need for a waterproof bag that may be conveniently carried by the user while performing the outdoor water activities.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an impermeable bag for holding articles.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an impermeable bag with a sealing mechanism for preventing water from entering the impermeable bag.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an impermeable bag with a sealing mechanism that facilitates convenient opening and closing of the impermeable bag.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide an impermeable bag capable of being conveniently carried by a user.
- In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the prior art, the general purpose of the present invention is to provide an impermeable bag that is configured to include all advantages of the prior art, and to overcome the drawbacks inherent therein. In an aspect of the present invention, the impermeable bag comprises a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a flexible interposing member and a flexible interlocking member. The first sidewall comprises a first inner surface and a first outer surface, and the second sidewall comprises a second inner surface and a second outer surface. The first inner surface and the second inner surface are attached to form a receptacle with an opening. The receptacle with the opening is capable of holding the articles therein. The flexible interlocking member is disposed on the first inner surface proximate to the opening. The flexible interposing member is disposed on the second inner surface proximate to the opening. The flexible interposing member and the flexible interlocking member are capable of sealing the opening to secure the articles within the receptacle. A pressing force applied on the first outer surface and the second outer surface, simultaneously, inserts the flexible interposing member into the flexible interlocking member for sealing the opening. The flexible interposing member inserted into the flexible interlocking member may be disengaged from the flexible interposing member by a pulling force applied on the first outer surface and the second outer surface to unseal the opening.
- The flexible interposing member inserted into the flexible interlocking member configures the sealing mechanism for preventing water from entering the impermeable bag. Further, the flexible interposing member may be inserted and disengaged from the flexible interlocking member by application of the pressing force and the pulling force respectively, thereby facilitating convenient opening and closing of the impermeable bag.
- The impermeable bag is provided with a belt for facilitating convenience in carrying the impermeable bag. The belt secures the impermeable bag with the user's body, thereby keeping the user's hands free for performing the water activities.
- The impermeable bag is provided with a compartment, thereby providing additional storage space in the impermeable bag for storing the articles.
