Abstract: A collapsible wheeled cart for carrying cases comprises a handle, a support platform for a carrying case pivotally connected to a lower end of the handle, a pair of wheel arms each having an outer end carrying a wheel and an inner end pivotally connected to the lower end of the handle, and an actuator operable to effect movement of the platform and wheel arms in unison from a non-deployed position in a collapsed configuration for the cart to a deployed position in an expanded configuration for the cart. The actuator is operable by a user applying a single manual operative motion to the actuator, which serves to expand the depth and width of the cart when it is placed in the expanded configuration from the collapsed configuration.

Abstract: A carrying case includes an enclosure defining an accessible interior and an organizing assembly within the interior. The organizing assembly includes an organizing panel in the interior and a set of accessory modules removably attachable on the organizing panel in a plurality of different arrangements in which the set of accessory modules cover an attachment surface of the organizing panel entirely or substantially entirely and/or form a geometric configuration corresponding to a perimeter circumscribing the attachment surface. A method of using a carrying case involves removably attaching a set of accessory modules on an attachment surface of an organizing panel disposed within the interior of a carrying case such that the set of accessory modules cover the attachment surface entirely or substantially entirely and/or form a geometric configuration corresponding to a perimeter circumscribing the attachment surface, detaching at least some of the accessory modules from the attachment surface.

Abstract: An adjustable, impact resistant cushion for use in a carrying case or the like has a first pad including a compressible, substantially rectangular foam piece covered with a pliable non-porous cover. The cover continuously covers the foam piece and includes an air flow controlling vent. Air escapes from the pad through the vent at a controlled rate when the foam material is compressed and so the pad absorbs shock by providing resistance to compression which increases with increasing compression velocity. Preferably, open cell urethane foam is employed in the compressible foam piece. The adjustable impact resistant cushion includes a second pad hingedly connected by a flexible hinge segment of webbing or plastic. The adjustable cushion includes, on a back surface, one or more releasable hook and loop type fasteners elements (e.g., either hooks or loops).
