Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application to Gerald Paulus entitled “PERSONAL STORAGE DEVICE,” Ser. No. 62/871,339, filed Jul. 8, 2019, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated entirely herein by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Technical Field

This invention relates generally to wallets, cell phone holders, clutches and carriers of personal articles, and particularly to a modular wearable personal storage device for carrying personal items.

State of the Art

People often carry personal items on their person. These personal items may include such things as cell phones and other electronic devices, wallets, credit cards, business cards, cameras, field equipment, identification badges, flashlights, earphones, pens, reading glasses, sunglasses, cell phone battery chargers, calculators, money, tickets, photos, keys, nail clippers, spare change, and the like. For various reasons, as time goes on, people tend to carry more and more personal items on their person, often with bulging pockets.

Many people, and particularly many men, tend to carry personal items in the pockets of their clothing, causing a feeling of being weighted down and causing pockets to bulge or even tear. Wearing a jacket or vest may provide additional pockets for storing personal items, but jackets or vests are not always convenient or worn. Jackets are also often temporarily removed, causing personal items stored therein to become inaccessible, or possibly forgotten or even lost. Other people, and particularly many women, tend to carry personal items in handbags. Many handbags are overly bulky, and handbags may become overloaded and heavy. Handbags are often carried over one arm or shoulder, causing the carrier to walk out of alignment, resulting in back pain and other ailments. In addition, many pockets of clothing, as well as handbags or items stored therein, are susceptible to theft. Furthermore, personal items carried in many pockets and/or handbags are not readily-accessible or conveniently located.

Accordingly, what is needed is an improved storage device for carrying personal items.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to wallets, cell phone holders, clutches and carriers of personal articles, and particularly to a modular wearable accessory personal storage device for carrying personal items.

A personal storage device may comprise a harness and at least two storage modules removably coupled thereto. A harness may comprise first and second elongate shoulder straps for securing the harness over the shoulders of a user.

Some embodiments may further comprise at least one back strap coupled between the first and second shoulder straps and configured to be disposed across a user's back. Some embodiments may further comprise at least one front strap coupled between the first and second shoulder straps and configured to be disposed across a user's upper chest. In some embodiments, the at least one front strap may be a decorative jewelry chain, as may be particularly fashionable for female users. In some embodiments, any of the first and second shoulder straps, the at least one back strap, the at least one front strap, and any combination thereof may be adjustable in length.

A modular attachment device may be coupled to each of the ends of the first and second shoulder straps, and/or to the at least one back strap, for removably attaching a storage module thereto. A modular attachment device may be any device suitable for quickly and removably attaching a storage module to an end of a shoulder strap or to a back strap.
