LAPTOP BAG CONVERTIBLE INTO A SINGLE LEG SUPPORTED PORTABLE WORKSTATION/DESK
A convertible Laptop bag, which has a first operative orientation in which it functions as a laptop bag, and a second operative orientation in which it functions as a SINGLE leg supported workstation/desk. The singular telescopic support structure is housed within the Base Portion of the Laptop bag. In a converted workstation/desk operative orientation, the single telescopic extendable and retractable leg support structures are in an extended mode perpendicularly away from the Laptop bag to support the Laptop bag on a support surface, such as a floor or any other base surface. The telescopic leg has wheels on its base, a locking mechanism to lock the leg at the desired height, and the ability to extend out to over three feet in height. The laptop bag having two UBS charging ports, a rechargeable battery, an AC outlet, a cup holder, a phone holder, Bluetooth speakers, a chair, a voice-activated, digital assistant application.
The present invention seeks to provide improved Laptop bag features, equipment, and assemblies.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONA Laptop bag that converts into a desk via A SINGLE telescopic leg housed on the REAR FACE of the Laptop bag. All other patents using a telescopic leg have two or more legs, most commonly, four legs. My advanced Laptop bag only has ONLY one telescopic (extendable and retractable) leg that can be extended out to reach over three feet in height, complete with, a chair for sitting and other features.
Travelers and commuters have long used laptop bags to carry various items. Students use laptop bags to carry their laptop computers and supplies. However, laptop bags have been limited in their usage to simply being a carrying case and a housing unit. All this will change as the advanced laptop bag can transform into a workable desk where students can now do their school assignments on their front steps, back porch, at a park, on the subway, or at a coffee shop with a chair for sitting. NO OTHER Laptop bag has either a single telescopic leg support or a chair, whereas our advanced bags features both.
My advanced laptop bag features an electrical housing unit with a 15 AMP outlet where users can now charge their laptop computer and two USB charging ports where users can charge phones and other electronic devices simultaneously. The advanced laptop bag features a rechargeable battery, a cup holder for beverages, a voice-activated-digital assistant application, a phone holder for hand-free working, a portable chair for sitting, a Bluetooth speaker mounted onto the telescopic leg for playing music, and hands-free phone calls, wheels on the base of the telescopic leg for easy transportation while using the Laptop bag as a desk, wheels on the bottom of the laptop bag for easy traveling and a tablet computer for video conference, watching movies and any other usage of a Tablet computer all of which, including a laptop bag having a SINGLE telescopic leg, is not readily available on conventional laptop bags. The use of combination laptop bags and a workstation/desk with a SINGLE telescopic leg is not known in the other patents, specifically, combination Laptop bag and desktop with a single telescopic leg.
The use of a combination Laptop bag and work table is known in the other patents. More specifically, combination Laptop bag and work table heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected, and apparent structural configuration, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the prior art developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior arts include U.S. Pat. No.; 2010/0124013A1; U.S. patent Ser. No. 007593222B2 and U.S. Pat. No. 7,593,222B2. While these devices fulfill their respective particular objective and requirements, the patents mentioned above do not disclose a new Laptop bag with a SINGLE telescopic leg with a desktop, a portable chair, Bluetooth speakers, and a Tablet computer amongst other things. Prior art stopped solely as a housing unit for books and supplies. At the same time, mine advanced it by becoming a combination Laptop bag and work table with a desktop via a single telescopic leg.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe disclosed technology generally relates to convertible Laptop bags and, more specifically, to a Laptop bag, which may be converted into a portable workstation/desk via a single telescopic leg support suitable for completing an assignment at any locations indoors or outdoors, complete with a sitting chair for a total workstation environment.
A convertible Laptop bag, which has a first operative orientation in which it functions as a laptop bag, and a second operative orientation in which it functions as a SINGLE leg supported workstation/desk. In this operative orientation, singular telescopic support structures are housed within a lower compartment of the Laptop bag called the BASE PORTION. In a converted, workstation operative orientation, the single telescopic extendable and retractable leg support structures are in an extended mode perpendicularly away from the Laptop bag to support the Laptop bag on a support such as a floor or any other base surface.
All other patents using a telescopic leg have four legs, whereas my advanced Laptop bag only has one telescopic (extendable and retractable) leg. The single extendable and retractable telescopic leg on the Laptop bag's REAR FACE will be adjustable to reach different heights to suit each customer comfortably. The base of the telescopic leg will have a secure circular base to ensure sturdiness and stability on all surfaces. The convertible Laptop bag will have four retractable wheels on the bottom (base) of the leg for easy transportation when used as a workstation. The advanced portable desk Laptop bag will have two blue tooth speakers mounted onto the single telescopic leg located on the Laptop bag's rear face so the customer can listen to music while completing their work. The portable desk Laptop bag will also have a rechargeable electrical housing unit to power the 15 AMP outlet and the two PORTABLE USB charging ports so customers can charge their laptop, cell phones, and other electrical dives as well as a cup holder to secure consumer's beverages, a voice-activated-digital assistant application like Siri and Alexa manufactured by Apple and Amazon respectively where users can ask questions and receive answers to their inquiries, a portable chair located in the Laptop bag's Rear Face so the Laptop bag's desk can be utilized at any location while sitting down, a phone holder for hands-free talking, a pencil holder, a rear wall; when unzipped exposes the single telescopic leg, a single telescopic leg having a locking mechanism able to lock the telescopic leg at heights over 3 feet, a housing unit for the telescopic leg and a telescopic (extendable and retractable) leg can be extended out to reach over three feet in height.
The portable desk Laptop bag will have four (4) compartments. Compartment #1 (the base) is the compartment where the adjustable legs are housed. This compartment will be made like standard laptop bags, except for the housing units on its bottom for the extendable legs.
Compartment #2 will be made of all materials and used to house the customer's laptop.
Compartment #3 will be made of all materials and used to house notebook pads, reports, and waist and shoulder straps.
Compartment #4 will be made of waterproof material and used to house the PORTABLE USB charging station. It will carry pens, pencils, a calculator, keys, charger wires, phones, and anything that can fit in it.
Various examples of objects, features, and intendant advantages of the present invention will become fully appreciated as the same becomes better understood when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which, like reference, characters, designate the same or similar parts throughout the several views. To illustrate the invention, there are shown in the drawings forms which are presently preferred; it being understood, however, that this invention is NOT limited to the precise arrangements and instrumentalities shown.
