Abstract: A hanging garment storage unit includes a hanger, a frame, and a drawer. The hanger is arranged to removably couple the frame to an external support. The frame has a broad side and a top. A track is coupled to the broad side of the frame, and the drawer is slidably coupled to the frame. The frame has a broad side and a narrow side, and the drawer is arranged to slide along the track with the broad side of the drawer facing the broad side of the frame. The drawer is further arranged to pivot about an end of the frame to allow movement of the drawer from a storage position to an access position.

Abstract: A versatile travel trunk may be reconfigured for numerous purposes, including a men's wardrobe, women's wardrobe, a combined wardrobe, food-carrying applications, tool and utensil accommodation, or any combination thereof. The preferred embodiment includes a body portion to which there is hinged a closable door portion. The body portion has an interior with a depth and opposing inner side walls adapted to receive one or more removable and reconfigurable shelves. A plurality of fasteners are disposed on the back portion of the back wall of the door to receive one or more modular inserts, each insert having a back surface connectable to the fasteners and a front surface with compartments adapted to carry a different set of items for a particular travel application. One or more of the shelves further include lower tracks to receive drawers that slide in and out of the body portion. The body portion preferably further includes a set of integrated wheels and a retractable handle for ease in transport.

Abstract: A carrying case includes a retaining structure including outer and inner surfaces, an intermediate first flexible board, a first padding between the outer surface and the first flexible board, a lower magnetic member between the inner surface and the first flexible board, and two longitudinal openings on either side proximate either end of a bottom; and a suspension plate including lower and upper surfaces, an upper magnetic member having a polarity opposing that of the lower magnetic member, a second flexible board on the upper magnetic member, a second padding between the upper surface and the second flexible board, and two spaced latches projecting from either end into the openings. The weight of a received object (e.g., notebook computer) pushes the suspension plate to slide down the latches along the openings, and the repelling force between the magnetic member counteracts the effects of the weight to suspend the suspension plate.

Abstract: A multi-compartment storage device includes a base portion and a lid for storing various items, such as photographs, recorded media, memorabilia and the like. The storage device includes at least three storage sections for holding various items. The first storage section is disposed at a base of the device. A second storage section stores hanging items. The second storage section includes at least one support member for suspending the hanging items. A third storage section is disposed above the second storage section, and is designed to store other types of materials, such as recorded media and the like.

Abstract: A portable device for the storage of items within a frame with two open ends. The two open ends may be removably closed with covers removably attached to the frame. A first storage device moveable between a first position and a second position is configured to contain items placed therein. The first position is a closed position, wherein the first storage device extends generally completely within the frame. The second position is a open position, wherein the storage device extends at least partially outside the frame. A second storage device is connected to the frame and is slidable between a first position and a second position. In the first position the second storage device extends generally completely within the frame. In the second position, the second storage device extends at least partially outward from the frame.

Abstract: A tackle box has a box body with a hinged lid. The box body has a deeper front portion and a shallower back portion. Correspondingly, the lid has a deeper back portion and shallower front portion. The back portion of the box body carries a stack of interconnected slidably mounted superimposed trays which can be pulled out rearwardly cantilever fashion when the lid is opened. The front portion of the box body has superimposed pull-out drawers. The box has a bail-type pivoting handle with a lid-latching mechanism which only allows the lid to open when the handle is swung forward from a box-carrying position. In the top of the lid, there is a removable shallow carrying case which can be used separately from the box.
