Abstract: Several novel components for Travel Bags and Travel Bag accessories are disclosed including a retractable trolley which has multiple adjustable handle heights along substantially all of the range of distance of its telescopic trolley tubes which permits the user to select and to fix the trolley pull handles at a height of their selection, a retractable hingeless plastic cover which in a closed position covers and protects an opening for a removable battery and which in open position permits the removal of the removable battery and/or access by the user to the battery face for charging and recharging purposes; a divider which can be fastened in place with adjustable side squeeze buckles or releasing and fastening clips either of which are adjustable to hold the contents in place; a battery latching and ejection system for a removable battery, a retractable power chord for rechargeable batteries or rechargeable electronic devices, and a connector cap which connects a vacuum pump with a vacuum compression bag va

Abstract: Various types of travel bags are provided with at least one portable self-contained vacuum compression system having a portable vacuum pump powered by a portable, preferably removable, rechargeable battery, a compression connection system, and a vacuum compression bag secured within the interior space of the travel bag. The portable self-contained vacuum compression system allows the user to pack more clothing or compressible goods into their travel bag via the use of vacuum compression. The air inside the compression bag can be evacuated by the attached self-contained vacuum pump assembly which is secured within the travel bag in a manner to hold the self-contained vacuum system within the travel bag's internal dimensions in one embodiment. The vacuum compression system can be held in place via a removable or a fixed frame that permits operation of the vacuum compression system within the internal dimensions of the travel bag.

Abstract: Luggage having an integrated compression system where at least one vacuum compression bag is provided and secured within the interior space of the luggage. The bag can be compressed by an attached self-contained vacuum assembly removably secured within the luggage, preferably between the handle tube guides. The air outlet opening of the bag can be provided with a valve or coupling for securement to the air entry inlet of the vacuum assembly. The bag can also be removably secured to other areas within the interior of the luggage. An air outlet of the vacuum assembly can be provided with a valve or coupling for securement to an opening in the back wall of the luggage. Alternatively, the valve or coupling can be provided in the back wall opening. Air removed from the compression bag by the vacuum assembly is expelled through the back wall opening, without the use of any exposed hoses.
