    Abstract: This embodiment of a cloth tray cover and its accessories is used on tray tables found on airplanes or trains, and with tray tables in some cars. The tray cover provides travelers with a protective germ barrier, as well as a way to organize personal items while traveling. The clear sleeve on the tray surface transforms the tray into a changeable activity board or a moisture barrier for reading material when drinks are served. The pockets of the tray cover accommodate both small and large personal items that travelers want to have handy. The tray cover can be sized and altered to fit any type of tray table for travel. The foldable drink holder provides a place to put one's drink when the tray table is up. The detachable viewing pocket provides a place to view an electronic device and can be adjusted to a passenger's preferred viewing position. It is also the storage case for the tray cover, the electronic device and the drink holder.

  • Publication number: 20160297461
    Abstract: This bag holder, carrier and organizer facilitates the growing trend of “reduce by reusing” and “bring your own bags” from home. It stores and carries paper, plastic and cloth bags in a compact and organized way. It attaches to any shopping cart handlebar, covering the handlebar completely, and reducing the transfer of germs between shoppers. When put on the handlebar, all the bags become accessible to the shopper. This bag carrier includes a plastic bag dispenser with elasticized openings that help organize plastic bags by size and function, a large open pocket that accommodates folded paper and cloth bags, and a hidden zippered pocket for personal items. The security strap secures the bag carrier onto the cart, and also closes the bag carrier into its closed, carrying position. The carrying strap is used to transport the bag carrier or to hang the bag carrier on a car headrest or other place in the home.
