Abstract: A collapsible waste receptacle is disclosed with front and rear frame pieces generally defining an exterior boundary. The waste receptacle is configured to move between an expanded and a collapsed configuration. In the expanded configuration, a bottom frame piece may be attached to both the front frame piece and the rear frame piece to define at least a lower portion of the exterior boundary of the receptacle, and a top surface may contact the front frame piece and the rear frame piece. To transition to the collapsed configuration, the bottom frame piece may disconnect and rotate to generally vertical orientation within the exterior boundary of the receptacle. The top surface may rotate around a frame piece to generally vertical orientation outside the exterior boundary. The front and rear frame pieces may move towards each other to define a collapsed configuration, e.g. assisted by the inward folding of remaining side panels.

Abstract: A storage case includes a front cover. An upper side of the front cover is rotatably connected to a top plate via a hinge structure. An outwardly protruding locking convex part is formed on the upper side of the front cover. In a first opened state where the front cover is turned upward about the upper side of the front cover as an axis, the locking convex part comes into contact with an engagement part on the top plate. When the front cover is turned upward from the first opened state and becomes in a second opened state in which the engagement part passes over the locking convex part, the locking convex part engages with the engagement part so that the front cover is locked in the second opened state. The locking convex part is recessed from a rear side of the front cover to be in a shell-shaped form.

Abstract: A user-friendly golf club head cover system adapted for full operation while never leaving its spot in the golf bag. It allows access to the club via a simple downward physical movement of the incorporated tube. The club head cover portion remains open until the golf club is reinserted into the system. The club head cover has a partially connected top panel that is closed via a simple upward physical movement of the incorporated tube. An internal spring panel or solid body structural top panel with residual biases may assist the opening and closing of the top panel. A series of rods maintain the golf club head cover in the golf bag. A magnetic closure keeps the club head cover portion closed. The opening and closing may be facilitated by manual manipulation of the top panel alone.
