The present invention relates to a bag equipped with a deployable chair, and more particularly, to a bag equipped with a deployable chair, which is capable of providing a seating space by deploying an embedded chair when the seating space is needed.
Recently, resting areas where users may rest are provided in various spaces.
Representatively, seating spaces are provided in movie theaters, parks, bus stops, and the like so that the users may rest for waiting time.
However, in some areas, seating spaces are not smoothly provided, and the distance between resting spaces is long. For this reason, there is a problem in that old and weak persons or disabled persons feel uncomfortable while moving to the next resting space or need to stand for a long time as the waiting time increases.
For example, when a user climbs a mountain, the user needs to move a long distance to reach a resting space where the user may rest while climbing the mountain. Further, even if the user finds the resting space where the user may rest, the user cannot find a portion on which the user can sit and thus may inevitably stands or sits on an uneven ground surface such as a rock and thus the user's waist or muscle may be strained due to the uneven ground surface. In a case in which a distance from a station or stop to the user's home is long, the user may not easily find a resting space. Therefore, in these several situations, the user may not find a seating or resting space where the user may take a seat and rest when the user desires the seating or resting space.
If there is a separate product capable of providing a seating space, a user may feel uncomfortable because the user needs to additionally carry the product for providing the seating space while carrying his/her personal items and thus the number of items to be carried by the user increases. The user needs to rest within a short time interval, which may inconvenience the user because of an increased time for which the user moves.
To solve the above-mentioned problems, development is being conducted on a product capable of providing seating spaces in various spaces, and means so as for the user not to feel the product as an additional load are actively devised. Accordingly, there is a need for a method capable of solving the above-mentioned problems.
The present disclosure has been made in an effort to solve the above-mentioned problems. According to the present disclosure, a seating unit for providing a seating space is embedded in a main body unit having a space therein to provide the seating space as necessary while the user moves. Therefore, it is possible to provide the seating space regardless of locations by using the embedded seating unit while the user carries the main body unit. It is possible to adjust a gradient of the seating space by changing a length of a support unit even on an inclined or uneven ground surface. Further, a storage device for storing items, a water bottle storage part for storing a water bottle, or an umbrella storage part for storing an umbrella may be provided, such that the user may store and carry separate items together.

In addition, to support the seating space, the support unit 300 may include lifting parts 310, a fixing part 320, a first manipulation part 330, a link part 340, and a second manipulation part 350.
Connection relationships and functions of the above-mentioned components will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings to be described below.
On the basis of the above-mentioned configuration, a situation in which the seating space is provided will be described with reference to
Specifically,
First, as illustrated in
In addition, the storage device S may be coupled to the rear surface of the main body unit 100, i.e., a surface of the main body unit 100 opposite to a side at which the seating space is to be provided. Therefore, a user, who intends to use the bag according to the present invention may store separate items, which the user intends to carry, in the storage device S.
In addition, the main body unit 100 may have straps W that enables the user to carry the main body unit 100 so that the user may provide the seating space as necessary while moving.
In this case, when the user intends to have the seating space by deploying the seating unit 200 and the support unit 300 from the main body unit 100 when the user moves while carrying the main body unit 100, the user may have the seating space by operating the first manipulation part 330, the second manipulation part 350, and the third manipulation part 230 illustrated in
The interior of the main body unit 100 will be described with reference to
In addition, as illustrated in
In this case, as illustrated in
To have the seating space, the user may rotate the seating unit 200 toward an upper side of the main body unit 100 while moving the seating unit 200, which is accommodated in the main body unit 100, toward the ground surface as described above.
In addition, when the seating unit 200 rotates to provide the seating space, the seating unit 200 may fix the seating space by using the angle adjustment part 210 and the catching part 220 so that the seating unit 200 may be fixed in the state in which the seating space is provided.
In this case, the angle adjustment part 210 and the catching part 220 will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings to be described below.
Further, in the state in which the seating space is provided, the seating unit 200 may include the seat part 240 made of cotton or fibers, rotatably coupled to the main body unit 100, and configured to provide the seating space, the leg parts 250 hingedly coupled to a lower portion of the seat part 240 and configured to support the seating space provided by the seat part 240 while rotating toward the ground surface, and the hinge movement parts 260 each having one end connected to the leg part 250 and the other end slidably coupled to the lower portion of the seat part 240.
In this case, one side of the seat part 240 may be coupled to the main body unit 100 so that the seat part 240 may be hingedly coupled to the main body unit 100 and provide the seating space while rotating. The leg part 250 may have a length corresponding to the seat part 240 and rotate toward the ground surface from the lower portion of the seat part 240 to support the seating space. One end of the hinge movement part 260 may be coupled to the leg part 250, and the other end of the hinge movement part 260 may be slidably coupled to the lower portion of the seat part 240 and guide a movement of the leg part 250 while sliding.
In addition, the hinge movement part 260 may have a rail configured to guide the sliding motion of the other end of the hinge movement part 260. As the hinge movement part 260 moves, the leg part 250 may rotate toward the ground surface or the lower portion of the seat part 240 in conjunction with the movement of the hinge movement part 260.
Further, the seating fixing parts 270 may be provided between the ground surface and the leg parts 250 and fix the leg parts 250 to prevent the seat part 240 from swaying when the seat part 240 provides the seating space. The seating fixing parts 270 may be partially inserted into the ground surface to fix the leg parts 250.
Therefore, the seating fixing part 270 may be tapered toward the ground surface so that the seating fixing part 270 may be partially inserted into the ground surface.
Further, the support unit 300 may be provided inside the main body unit 100 and support the other side of the seating space by moving toward the ground surface when the seating unit 200 provides the seating space and the leg parts 250 support one side of the seating space.
In this case, the support unit 300 may be changed in length depending on an inclination of the ground surface and adjust a gradient of the seating space, and the support unit 300 may be fixed to support the seating space. Therefore, the support unit 300 may include the lifting parts 310 elongated toward the ground surface, the fixing parts 320 configured to adjust positions of the lifting parts 310, and the first manipulation part 330 tiltably provided on the main body unit 100, connected to the fixing parts 320, and configured to fix positions of the lifting parts 310 by adjusting the fixing parts 320 according to movement positions thereof.
In this case, the first manipulation part 330 may be provided on the upper portion of the main body unit 100, and the first manipulation part 330 may tilt to move the support unit 300 toward the ground surface to adjust the gradient of the seating space. As illustrated in
In this case, the first wire members 332 may be connected to a lower portion of the first manipulation part 330. The first manipulation part 330 may move and pull the first wire members 332 while tilting, and the fixing parts 320 may be pulled by the first wire members 332 in the movement direction of the first manipulation part 330.
In this case, as illustrated in
In more detail, as illustrated in
As described above, the lifting part 310 may be unlocked as the plurality of protrusion members 322 is withdrawn from the lifting part 310 by the first wire member 332 in the tilting movement direction of the first manipulation part 330, and the lifting part 310 may move toward the ground surface, as illustrated in
In addition, the link part 340, which is disposed between the lifting parts 310 and connects the lifting parts 310 respectively provided at the lateral sides of the main body unit 100, may move together with the lifting part 310 toward the ground surface as the lifting parts 310 move toward the ground surface. The link part 340 may allow one side and the other side of a foldable member 354 to move away from each other. The foldable member 354 may include a plurality of panels hingedly coupled to one another while intersecting one another and has one side and the other side respectively slidably coupled to the main body unit 100 and the link part 340.
In more detail, as illustrated in
As described above, the user may have the seating space while the user moves or as necessary. The user may carry the main body unit 100 by using the straps W provided on the main body unit 100 and have the seating space according to the user's convenience.
When the user intends to remove the seating space, the user may perform an operation of removing the seating space as described with reference to
Specifically,
First, a process of restoring the support unit 300 will be preferentially described with reference to
To restore the lifting parts 310 to remove the seating space, the positions of the lifting parts 310 may be preferentially unlocked by unlocking the fixing parts 320 by operating the first manipulation part 330 as described above, and the lifting parts 310 may be moved toward the inside of the main body unit 100 by operating the second manipulation part 350.
In this case, as illustrated in
In this case, as illustrated in
When the two opposite ends of one side of the foldable member 354 move toward each other or one side of the foldable member 354 moves in the movement direction of the second wire member 356 as described above, the plurality of panels intersecting one another is spread as the two opposite ends of one side of the foldable member 354 become close to each other. Therefore, two opposite ends of the other side of the foldable member 354 may move toward each other on the link part 340, thereby moving the link part 340 toward the upper side of the main body unit 100.
As described above, when the lever member 352 is pulled, the two opposite ends of one side of the foldable member 354 may move toward each other, and the two opposite ends of the other side of the foldable member 354 may slide toward each other on the link part 340, such that the link part 340 may be moved toward the upper side of the main body unit 100, and the link part 340 may move the lifting parts 310 toward the inside of the main body unit 100.
In this case, the configuration in which the foldable member 354 includes the plurality of panels hingedly coupled to one another while intersecting one another has been described above. However, in more detail, an X-shaped coupling unit having a plurality of panels coupled to one another at centers thereof may be provided as a basic coupling unit, a plurality of basic coupling units may be arranged toward the upper side of the main body unit 100 from the inside of the main body unit 100, and the adjacent basic coupling units may be hingedly coupled to each other.
The foldable member 354 including the plurality of panels hingedly coupled to one another while intersecting one another may move the link part 340 toward the upper side of the main body unit 100, i.e., in the movement direction of the lever member 352. Further, the lever member 352 may move upward by a distance by which one side of the foldable member 354 moves, and the link part 340 may move upward or downward by a distance longer than a distance by which the lever member 352 moves upward or downward. As a result, the user may easily restore the lifting parts 310 by moving the lever member 352 by a short distance.
For example, if a movement distance of the lifting parts 310 is equal to a movement distance of the lever member 352, the user needs to consistently pull the lever member 352 until the lifting parts 310 are moved upward. Therefore, it may be hard for old and weak persons, who substantially need the seating space, to consistently pull and move the lever member 352 upward. Therefore, the foldable member 354 may include the plurality of panels hingedly coupled to one another while intersecting one another, which makes it possible to allow the user to restore the lifting part 310 by pulling the lever member 352 by a short distance.
When the two opposite ends of one side of the foldable member 354 move toward each other as described above, the lifting parts 310 may be moved toward the inside of the main body unit 100, as illustrated in
When the user intends to restore the seating unit 200 to remove the seating space, the user may operate the seating unit 200 as illustrated in
In this case, the seating unit 200 may include the seat part 240, the leg parts 250, and the hinge movement parts 260, as described above. A bar member 262 may be configured to connect the hinge movement parts 260 provided at the two opposite sides of the lower portion of the seat part 240 so that the hinge movement parts 260 may move in conjunction with each other.
In this case, the user may simply rotate the leg parts 250 toward the lower portion of the seat part 250 by applying external force thereto. However, the user may also move the other side of each of the hinge movement parts 260 toward the main body unit 100 by moving the bar member 262, which is formed to be perpendicular to the movement direction of the hinge movement part 260, toward the main body unit 100 so that the other side of each of the hinge movement parts 260 moves toward the main body unit 100, and pull each of the leg parts 250 hingedly coupled to one side of each of the hinge movement parts 260, thereby rotating the leg parts 250 toward the lower portion of the seat part 240.
In this case, the seat part 240 may have a long hole 242 elongated in the movement direction of the hinge movement parts 262 to allow the user to simply move the bar member 262 at a location above the seating space.
When the user intends to restore the seating unit 200 by using the above-mentioned configuration, the user may move the bar member 262 toward the main body unit 100. Therefore, the other side of each of the hinge movement parts 260 connected to the bar member 262 may be moved toward the main body unit 100, and the leg parts 250 each hingedly coupled to one side of each of the hinge movement parts 260 may be rotated toward the lower portion of the seat part 240.
In addition, when the leg parts 250 have been restored as illustrated in
As illustrated in
However, as illustrated in
Specifically, when the seat part 240 rotates to provide the seating space, the angle adjustment parts 210 provided at two opposite ends of a rotary shaft of the seating unit 200 may also rotate. A part of the angle adjustment part 210 may be formed to have a radius of curvature about the rotary shaft, and a projection 212 may be formed at a periphery having the radius of curvature. The seating unit 200 may include the catching part 220 tiltable toward the angle adjustment part 210, having one side tilting toward the projection 212, and configured to fix the rotation of the angle adjustment part 210, and the third manipulation part 230 configured to adjust the rotation of the angle adjustment part 210 by controlling the catching part 220.
In this case, the angle adjustment part 210 may fix the seating space by rotating together with the seat part 240, and one side of the catching part 220, which rotates toward the projection 212, may protrude toward the projection 212, thereby fixing the rotation of the projection 212.
In this case, the catching part 220 may include a spring member 222 configured to press one side of the catching part 220 and maintain a fixed state of the seat part 240. The angle adjustment part 210 may be fixed by the catching part 220 that rotates toward the projection 212.
To remove the seating space, the angle adjustment part 210 fixed as described above may be unlocked by the third manipulation part 230 connected to the other side of the catching part 220 by means of third wire members 232.
In this case, the third wire members 232 may be disposed below the third manipulation part 230. When the third manipulation part 230 is pressed by the external force, the third wire member 232 may pull the other side of the catching part 220, and the catching part 220 may deviate from a rotation route of the projection 212 by the third wire member 232, such that the angle adjustment part 210 may be unlocked.
As described above, the catching part 220 may be inserted into the main body unit 100 by rotating the seat part 240 toward the ground surface while pressing the third manipulation part 330 to unlock the angle adjustment part 210.
As described above, the user may have the seating space at any time in a desired space at a desired time while carrying the main body unit 100 by performing the processes of providing and removing the seating space by using the configuration of each of the main body unit 100, the seating unit 200, the support unit 300, and a combination thereof.
Meanwhile, the main body unit 100 may have an umbrella storage part 120 capable of storing an umbrella U.
This configuration will be described with reference to
In particular, the main body unit 100 may have the umbrella storage part 120 that allows the user to use the umbrella U on a rainy day or store the umbrella U to carry the umbrella U.
In this case, the umbrella storage part 120 may be penetratively formed toward the ground surface and disposed at the upper side of the main body unit 100. The umbrella storage part 120 may store all types of umbrellas U. The umbrella storage part 120 may include a separation prevention member 122 rotatably provided on the main body unit 100 and configured to surround the umbrella U and prevent the umbrella U from separating by rotating toward the umbrella U.
However, the umbrella storage part 120 may be configured as a separate member and store the umbrella U without interfering with the space of the seating unit 200.
In more detail, a storage coupling part (not illustrated) capable of being coupled to the umbrella storage part 120 may be provided on the lower portion of the seat part 240. The user may store the umbrella U in the separately provided umbrella storage part 120 and couple the umbrella storage part 120 to the storage coupling part provided on the lower portion of the seat part 240, such that the user's comfort may be improved. The umbrella U stored in the umbrella storage part 120 may be fixed by the separation prevention member 122 so as not to separate from the umbrella storage part 120, such that the user does not feel uncomfortable due to the umbrella U while the user has the seating space.
In addition, one side of the separately provided umbrella storage part 120 may be coupled to the storage coupling part provided on the lower portion of the seat part 240. The umbrella storage part 120 may have a holder (not illustrated) provided at the other side thereof and configured to fix the umbrella U to prevent the umbrella U from swaying. When it rains suddenly, the user may open the umbrella U, mount the umbrella U on the holder, and then take a rest in the state in which the seating space is provided.
Further, the umbrella storage part 120 may rotate in a state of being coupled to the storage coupling part. Therefore, the user may change an angle of the umbrella storage part 120 to conform to a direction of wind and thus take shelter from rain in the state in which the seating space is provided.
