Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 15 December 2006 (15.12.2006)1 Claim:
1. A carrying case, comprising: a main body having an open top; a closure member secured in the open top of the main body; and a pair of opening members secured to ihe main body adjacent the open top of the main body, said opening members extending outwardly from the main body, each of said opening members comprising an attachment member secured to the main body below a respective closure member.
2. The carrying case of claim 1, wherein said closure member comprises an interlocking closure member.
3. The carrying case of claim L, wherein said opening members are adapted for grasping by a user's hands and pulling in opposing directions to facilitate opening of the interlocking closure member,
4. The carrying case of claim 1, wherein each of said attachment members is fixedly secured on an outside of the main body a distance from a respective closure member and a loop member carried by the attachment member.
5. The carrying case of claim 4, wherein said loop member is sized to allow grasping by a human hand.
6. The carrying case of claim 4, wherein said loop member is sized to allow positioning of at least human lingers therein.
7. The carrying case of claim 1, further comprising a means for sealing a line of attachment of the closure member to the main body to prevent seeping of moisture into the interior of the carrying case.
8. The carrying case of claim 7, wherein said sealing means comprises a pair of sealing sleeves mounted about respective ends of the closure member and configured to overlap at least a portion of an adjacent corner of the main body.
9. The carrying case of claim 8, wherein each of said sealing sleeves is fused to the main body and to the closure member,
10 The carrying case of claim 1 , wherein said main body is formed from a flexible moisture-impermeable material capable of being welded by dielectric welding.
1 1. A carrying case, comprising: a flexible main body having an open top, said body being formed from liquid- impermeable material; an interlocking closure member secured in the open top of the main body; a pair of sleeves sealingly engaging and overlapping opposing ends of the closure member and covering a line of attachment of the closure member lo the main body; and a pair of opening members secured to the main body adjacent the open rop of the main body, said opening members extending outwardly from the main body, each of said opening members comprising an attachment member secured to the main body below a respective closure member.
12. The carrying case of claim 11 wherein each of said attachment members is fixedly secured on an outside of the main body a distance from a respective closure member and a loop member carried by the attachment member, said loop member being configured for grasping by a human hand.
13 The carrying case of claim 12, wherein said loop member is sized to allow positioning of at least human fingers therein.
14. The carrying case of claim 11, wherein each of said end sleeves is sized io cover at least a portion of the main body.
15. A method of forming a soft-sided carrying case, comprising the steps of: forming a main body from a piece of flexible material, said main body having an open top and closed sides and bottom; securing a closure member in the open top of the main body and fusing said closure member to the main body; providing a pair of end sleeves and positioning said sleeves in an overlapping relationship over ai least a part of the closure member and the main body; fusing said end sleeves lo the main body and the closure member; and providing opening members, each opening member comprising an attachment member secured lo the main body below a respective closure member and securing the opening members to the main body adjacent the closure member.
16. The method of claim 15, wherein said closure member comprises interlocking closure member,
17. The method of claim 15, further wherein said siops of fusing the closure member and the end sleeves comprise ihe step of dielectric welding,
18. The method of claim 15, further comprising the step of opening said formed carrying case to allow access to me interior of the formed carrying case.
19. The method of claim 16, wherein the step of opening the carrying case comprises the steps of grasping said opening members and bending the closure member to cause a gap to form between parts of the closure member, and then applying a pulling force on the opening members, thereby forcing the pans of the closure member apart.
20. The method of claim 15, wherein said main body is formed from a moisture- irnpermeable material.
