Abstract: A self-storing article of bedding is constructed with a pair of pocket panels that overlie a limited surface area on the top of a cover, thereby defining a pocket region of the cover and a larger peripheral region extending beyond the pocket region. The pocket panels reside atop overlapping portions of the pocket region of the cover and have boundary edges that are sewn to the cover, thereby defining the perimeter of the pocket region. Linear, free, overlapping edges of the pocket panels extend between their respective boundary edges. Mutually engageable, releaseable fasteners are provided on the pocket panels in the area of mutual overlap. The pocket panels are reversible in orientation. When the pocket panels are oriented so that their reverse surfaces face each other, the peripheral region of the cover may the folded and stuffed in between the reverse surfaces of the pocket panels and the pocket region of the cover.

Abstract: A portable document storage device is formed of a filing pouch having a collapsible pocket and a foldable flap extending from its back cover, and an expandable filing case. The filing case is partitioned by a plurality of indexed section dividers that divide the filing case into a plurality of pockets to receive papers in an orderly manner. Mutually engageable releaseable fasteners are located on the back cover of the filing case and on the front cover of the filing pouch. When the releaseable fasteners are engaged the filing case can be carried with the filing pouch and is enveloped by the foldable cover of the filing pouch. Alternatively, the fasteners may be released from each other so that the filing case may be completely or partially detached from the filing pouch.

Abstract: A portable document storage device includes large and small portable file folders or wallets. Each of these file folders has front and back covers and a foldable flap that extends from the back cover and folds over the front cover. Each file folder is provided with accordion pleated side panels that allow at least the upper portions of the front and back covers to be spread apart from each other for access to the contents of the folders. A plurality of divider sheets are provided for each file folder. The divider sheets have side marginal edges that are secured throughout to the pleats in the side panels of their respective wallets. Release able fasteners are provided with mutually engaging fastening elements located near the upper edge of the rear cover of the small filing wallet and near the upper edge of the front cover of the large filing wallet.

Abstract: A combination of a pillowcase and a cover is constructed the so that the pillowcase is permanently attached to the central region of the cover and the cover may the folded and stuffed into the pillowcase or alternatively spread out to extend laterally from the pillowcase. The pillowcase is formed of front and rear panels. The front panel is permanently secured to the central region of the cover. The front and rear panels of the pillowcase are permanently secured together along only a portion of a mutually common enclosing perimeter, and are releaseably secured together along the remainder of that perimeter. The orientation of the rear panel is reversible so that it may reside exposed atop the cover with the front panel concealed therebetween when the cover is withdrawn from the pillowcase and spread out laterally therefrom.

Abstract: Modular storage units are formed for small, household articles so that the units can be stacked vertically one atop another. Each unit is formed with a box supported from beneath by a stand for rotation relative to the stand about a central, vertical axis of rotation. The stand has a base that covers a horizontal stand base area and supports the flat bottom of the box. The top of the box is flat and has a concave, upwardly facing recess at its center that has a shape configured to snugly received the stand of a unit stacked directly above. Any number of modular storage units can be stacked one atop another with the stand of each unit being centered and laterally confined by the stand receiving recess in the top of the box located immediately below. In this way all of the boxes are rotatable independently of each other about a common, vertical axis of rotation. The contents of the boxes may be accessed either by forming the box with an open side, or by forming each top of the box as a removable lid.
