FIGS. 1-4 , the first translucentflexible bag 12 includes afront wall 30 and arear wall 31. Abottom wall 32 connects with a bottom portion of thefront wall 30 of the first translucentflexible bag 12. Thebottom wall 32 andfront wall 30 of the first and second translucentflexible bags interior cavity 34. Thebottom wall 32 provides support to the first translucentflexible bag 12 when removed from thepouch 20. A plurality ofseams 36 are shown in the first translucentflexible bag 12 adjacent thebottom wall 32, such that the first translucentflexible bag 12 may be folded or rolled into a compacted position. The number ofseams 36 may influence the holding capacity of theinterior cavity 34. Thus, it is contemplated thatseams 36 may be disposed in various positions in the first translucentflexible bag 12 to provide more or less storage volume to theinterior cavity 34 of the first translucentflexible bag 12. Atop portion 37 of the first translucentflexible bag 12 includes aband 38 that provides additional structural integrity to theopen end 18 of the first translucentflexible bag 12. - As shown in
FIGS. 1-8 in the illustrated embodiment, astrap 40 extends through theband 38. Thestrap 40 is designed to cinch theopen ends flexible bags cinching device 42 is provided to maintain theopen end 18 of the first translucentflexible bag 12 in the closed position. - In the alternate embodiment shown in
FIG. 9 , theband 38 does not include thestrap 40, but instead includes first and secondmagnetic members band 38. The firstmagnetic member 42 is disposed in theband 38 adjacent thefront wall 30 and the secondmagnetic member 44 is disposed in theband 38 adjacent therear wall 31. The first and secondmagnetic members band 38, thus keeping theopen end 18 in a closed position until a user forces the first and secondmagnetic members flexible bag 12. - Referring to
FIGS. 10-12 , it is contemplated that multiple bags, such as the first, the second, and a third translucentflexible bags FIG. 10 , may be utilized. Each of thebands 38 of the first, second, and third translucentflexible bags first indicium 14 may be of a tactile nature, that is, theband 38 of the first translucentflexible bag 12 may include bumps, thesecond indicium 24 on theband 38 of the second translucentflexible bag 22 may include a star design, and theband 38 of the third translucentflexible bag 52 may include athird indicium 60 with a hatch design, which can be readily determined by a sense of touch from a user. Alternatively, discriminating between the translucentflexible bags band 38 of the first translucentflexible bag 12 designate a first color-coded indicium, the stars of theband 38 on the second translucentflexible bag 22 designate a second color-coded indicium, and the hatching on theband 38 of the third translucentflexible bag 52 designates yet another color-coded indicium. When the translucentflexible bags pouch 20, as shown inFIGS. 11-13 , thecontents 62 of eachflexible bag flexible bag flexible bag contents 62 can be located in theflexible bag flexible bag pouch 20. Alternatively, theflexible bag pouch 20, as shown inFIG. 11 . Thecontents 62 inside theflexible bag FIG. 12 . - Referring now to an alternate embodiment of the present invention, as depicted in
FIGS. 14 and 15 , thebag 12 may include arecording device 69 designed for customization by a user. To use therecording device 69, the user actuates abutton 72, holding thebutton 72 down (step 70), and simultaneously records thecontents 62 of the flexible bag 12 (step 74). Stated differently, the items the user intends to place in theflexible bag 12 are recorded by the user. The information provided by the user is stored in asmall memory device 75. When thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12 have been recorded, thebutton 72 is released (step 76). At a later time, when the user wishes to discover thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12 without having to look in theflexible bag 12, the user simply actuates thebutton 72 by pressing and releasing thebutton 72 quickly (step 78). Thebutton 72 activates thememory device 75, which simultaneously instructs a bag speaker 80 (step 82) to play back the recording originally recorded by the user that states thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12. It is contemplated that therecording device 69 may be present in any of theflexible bags - In yet another embodiment of the present invention, as depicted in
FIG. 16 , alighting device 89 includes alight bar 90 that is operably connected to abattery source 92. A proximity ortouch sensor 94 disposed at the top of theflexible bag 12 is operably connected with thelight bar 90, and when thetouch sensor 94 is activated by an individual's finger or hand, thetouch sensor 94 sends a signal to thelight bar 90 to activate, drawing energy from thebattery source 92. Accordingly, in a dark room, a user can determine thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12 based on the color of thelight bar 90, which is indicative of thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12. In addition, it is contemplated that the light intensity may be sufficient to illuminate the interior of theflexible bag 12 such that a user can readily ascertain thecontents 62 of theflexible bag 12. It is contemplated that thelighting device 89 may be present in any of theflexible bags - A method for identifying the contents of a pouch, such as a satchel or purse, includes providing a first translucent flexible bag of a first predetermined size and having a first indicium and a closure device disposed at an open end of a first translucent flexible bag. A second translucent flexible bag is also provided that has a second predetermined size and a second identifying indicium. A closure device is disposed on an open end of the second translucent flexible bag. The first and second translucent flexible bags are inserted into a pouch and the contents of the first and second translucent flexible bags are determined by first identifying the indicium disposed on or near the open end of each of the first and second translucent flexible bags.
- It is to be understood that variations and modifications can be made on the aforementioned structure without departing from the concepts of the present invention, and further it is to be understood that such concepts are intended to be covered by the following claims unless these claims by their language expressly state otherwise.
