SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe following presents a simplified summary in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed innovation. This summary is not an extensive overview, and it is not intended to identify key/critical elements or to delineate the scope thereof. Its sole purpose is to present some general concepts in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.
The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a chair caddy device. The device is a multifunctional three-pocket bag secured with fasteners around an arm of a beach, patio, or camping chair for storing personal items. The chair caddy device comprises a base component which includes a plurality of pockets. Each pocket can be used to store any appropriate item, keeping it elevated off the ground, safe and secure.
When relaxing outdoors in camping chairs, patio chairs, or beach chairs, etc., users lack space to store their personal items, such as books, phones, wallets, drinks, etc. The conveniently placed portable chair caddy device described below specifically addresses and alleviates these concerns.
In one embodiment, the chair caddy device can be secured to a chair. Any suitable chair can be utilized as is known in the art, but specifically, the chair caddy device can be utilized while outdoors, with a beach chair, a patio chair, and/or a camping chair, etc. Further, the chair caddy device can also be utilized inside on any chair with at least one arm to hang the caddy device, such as armchairs, kitchen chairs, highchairs, wheelchairs, etc. As with traditional beach, patio, and camping chairs, the chairs include a seat, a back rest, various legs and two arm portions.
In one embodiment, the chair caddy device is secured to an arm of a chair, but could be secured to any suitable position on the chair as is known in the art. Thus, it is to be understood that the flexibility of this construction enables the chair caddy device to be fastened to any suitable part of the chair. Further, the chair caddy device is secured via a fastener to the arm of the chair. Specifically, the caddy device can be secured via hook and loop fasteners, straps, ties, snaps, buckles, etc., or any other suitable fasteners as is known in the art.
The chair caddy device comprises the fastener secured to a top of the device. Thus, the chair caddy device, once secured, is positioned on the chair arm such that a user sitting in the chair will have convenient access to the caddy device and the various contents disposed within the caddy device. By positioning the chair caddy device next to the user sitting in the chair, the personal items stored within the device are kept secure and others are prevented from accessing the contents of the device. The fastener can be secured to any suitable position on the chair caddy device as long as the device is able to hang freely from the chair arm allowing a user access to the contents of the device while sitting in the chair.
In one embodiment, the chair caddy device comprises a base component comprising a back panel secured to a front panel, along the side edges, a top edge, and a bottom edge to form the bag structure. The base component can be any suitable shape and size as is known in the art, depending on the needs and/or wants of a user. Typically, the base component measures approximately nine inches in length, but can be any suitable length as is known in the art to accommodate any suitable number of pockets as is known in the art.
It is to be understood that the various edges of the base component may be fastened to each other in a number of different ways, such as by sewing the various edges together, using an adhesive, by welding and/or fusing various portions of the panels to each other, etc., or any other suitable securing means as is known in the art.
In one embodiment, at least one pocket panel is fastened to the front panel continuously defining side edges and the bottom edge for the pocket panel. A smaller pocket panel is then fastened to the at least one pocket panel continuously defining side edges and the bottom edge for the smaller pocket panel. The smaller pocket panel may then be divided into a plurality of pockets. In one embodiment, there is a one large pocket spanning the length of the caddy device and two smaller pockets that are approximately half the size of the large pocket which are positioned in front of the large pocket. However, any suitable number and size of pockets can be utilized as is known in the art, depending on the needs and/or wants of a user. Further, the various pockets may be formed in a number of different ways, such as: by sewing various dividing stitches in the pocket panel, by using an adhesive, by welding and/or fusing portions of the pocket panel to the front panel to form the various pockets, etc., or any other suitable means for creating the divisions among the pockets may be implemented in accordance with this invention.
Although the various pockets have been constructed into a single pocket panel, it is to be understood that the various pockets may be formed by more than one rectangular piece of material positioned and fastened adjacent to each other. Likewise, it should be noted that additional pockets may be formed on the base component within any one of the various pockets. Further, various fasteners (such as snaps, zippers, or Velcro®) may also be attached within each of the various pockets to secure the pockets closed when necessary.
In one embodiment, within at least one of the pockets, a fluid resistant liner may be provided, such as a plastic lining. If a fluid and/or wet item is placed in the pocket, the fluid resistant liner will protect the various other articles disposed in adjacent pockets from being soiled by the wet item. In one embodiment, all of the pockets comprise a fluid resistant liner for protection from wet items, as well as simple cleaning and sterilizing of the base component. Thus, the fluid resistant liners allow for removing dirt and grime from the pockets in a fast and easy manner.
In another embodiment, a thermal insulating liner can be integrated into at least one of the pockets. The thermal insulating liner may be made of any type of suitable commercially available thermal insulating material composition. The use of a thermal insulating liner is to maintain the temperature of various articles in the pockets at a substantially constant temperature. In one embodiment, an internal power source, such as batteries, may be electrically connected with the thermal insulating liner to maintain the thermal insulating liner at the preferred predetermined temperature in accordance with this invention.
In one embodiment, the base component may be constructed of a flexible material allowing the chair caddy device to be wrapped around the contours of the chair arm, yet rigid enough to secure and support the weight of various articles stored therein while preventing the chair caddy device from sagging. For example, the chair caddy device can be manufactured from a material fabric such as nylon, cotton, vinyl, and/or any other suitable flexible, albeit substantially rigid material. In one embodiment, the chair caddy device comprises an outdoor water- and UV-resistant fabric, as well. Any suitable high-quality fabric can be utilized as is known in the art, as long as the chair caddy device can be washed and reused, as needed.
As mentioned before, one object of this invention is to employ the use of a fabric that is sufficiently flexible, yet durable to hold the various articles in the chair caddy device. One way to ensure that the chair caddy device is sufficiently rigid is by building up the fabric at various locations to counteract any sag that may occur from the weight of the items in the chair caddy device. For example, the top edge or bottom edge of the front panel or back panel may be built up by layering or overlapping the edges thereby creating a more rigid edge sufficient to overcome the weight of the items in the chair caddy device. Likewise, the top edge or the bottom edge of the pocket panel may also be layered or built up by overlapping its edges. Furthermore, any of the side edges and/or seams between the various pockets, the top edge, or bottom edge of the front panel or the back panel may be materially built-up, or thickened, to create a rigid, substantially unbending structure for the chair caddy device.
In another embodiment, a rigid rod-like material, such as a thin piece of metal, plastic, wood, etc., may be disposed and/or lined along the various edges, seams, or pockets to enhance the rigidity of the chair caddy device. By implementing the rigid rod-like material, the chair caddy device will be able to overcome sagging that would otherwise occur when the chair caddy device is weighed down by various articles.
In another embodiment, the chair caddy device may include cover flaps to prevent direct contact with and to secure the contents within any one of the various pockets. For example, the cover flaps may be positioned over any of the various pockets and secured thereon by any suitable fastening mechanism, such as hook and loop closures, buttons, snaps, zippers, etc. The flaps prevent the various contents within the pockets from falling out in transit and/or when the chair caddy device is tipped upside down. Thus, upon completion of the outdoor activity, the various items stored within the pockets of the chair caddy device can be removed as a single unit with the chair caddy device for transportation.
It is to be understood that various items are contemplated to be stored and/or carried within the chair caddy device in accordance with this invention. The various items include, but are not limited to, sunscreen, cups, books, wallets, phones, sunglasses, pens, watches, etc., and/or any other item needed for the beach or camping.
In another embodiment, the chair caddy device may include various designs, styles, and/or other aesthetic logos. The chair caddy device may be made of any color(s), style, or pattern(s) and of various shapes and sizes, including, but not limited to, embellishments, embroidery, patches, badges, gems, brand logos, brand names, sports team logos, name, monograms, images/objects, cartoon characters, numbers, geometric shapes, animals, birds, flowers, alphanumeric markings, and/or a combination thereof.
In yet another embodiment, the chair caddy device comprises a plurality of indicia.
In yet another embodiment, a method of securely storing personal items while at the beach or camping is disclosed. The method includes the steps of providing a chair caddy device comprising a base component with a plurality of pockets and a fastener. The method also comprises choosing a specific style and size of the chair caddy device, depending on the needs and/or wants of a user. Further, the method comprises securing the chair caddy device around an arm of a user’s beach or camping chair via the fastener.
