Summary of the Disclosure
An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a support panel having a front surface. A plurality of pockets is coupled to the front surface. The pockets include a plurality of primary pockets. A plurality of sheaths is provided. Each sheath is coupled to each of the primary pockets. Each sheath has an open upper end, a closed bottom end, a first lateral side and a second lateral side. The open upper end of each sheath defines an access opening extending into the associated sheath. Each sheath is configured to receive a panel having indicia thereon through the access opening of the associated sheath for labeling of the associated primary pocket. Each sheath is translucent to permit viewing into the sheath. A hook is coupled to the support panel.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to
As best illustrated in
A plurality of pockets 34 is coupled to the front surface 14. Each of the pockets 34 has a closed bottom 36, a top perimeter edge 38 and a perimeter surface 39 extending between the closed bottom 36 and the top perimeter edge 38 of the associated pocket 34. The top perimeter edge 38 of each pocket 34 defines an access opening into an interior space of the associated pocket 34. The pockets 34 include a plurality of primary pockets 40 and a secondary pocket 42. The secondary pocket 42 is attached to the support panel 12 proximate the bottom portion 20 of the perimeter edge 18 of the support panel 12 such that the secondary pocket 42 extends downwardly below the support panel 12. The secondary pocket 42 may be formed of a flexible netted material. Each of the primary pockets 40 is translucent to permit viewing into the interior space of the primary pockets 40. Each of the primary pockets 40 may be constructed from a flexible and durable material, such as vinyl, plastic or the like. A plurality of couplers 78 releasably couples each of the pockets 34 to the support panel 12. Each of the couplers 78 comprises a first mating member 79 coupled to the support panel 12 and a second mating member 80 coupled to an associated one of the pockets 34. The couplers 78 may comprise hook and loop fasteners, snaps or other conventional fasteners.
A plurality of flaps 44 is provided. Each of the flaps 44 is coupled to an associated one of the pockets 34 wherein each of the flaps 44 is positionable over the access opening of the associated pocket 34. A plurality of closures 46 is provided. Each closure 46 is attached to an associated one of the pockets 34 and is actuated to a closed state closing the access opening of the associated pocket 34 or to an opened state allowing access to the interior space of the associated pocket 34. Each closure 46 may comprise a zipper being coextensive with the access opening of the associated pocket 34, though hook and loop connectors, snaps or the like may be used as well.
A plurality of sheaths 48 is provided. Each of the sheaths 48 is coupled to an associated one of the primary pockets 40. Each sheath 48 has an open upper end 50, a closed bottom end 52, a first lateral side 54 and a second lateral side 56. The open upper end 50 of each sheath 48 defines an access opening extending into the associated sheath 48. Each sheath 48 is configured to receive a labeling panel having indicia thereon through the access opening of the associated sheath 48 for labeling of the associated primary pocket 40. Each sheath 48 is translucent to permit viewing into the sheath 48.
A hole 58 is positioned in the support panel 12. The hole 58 is positioned proximate the apex 32. A channel 60 extends between the hole 58 and the apex 32. The apex 32 has an opening 62 positioned therein providing access to the channel 60. A hook 64 is coupled to the support panel 12. The hook 64 may be an upper portion of a conventional clothes hanger. The hook 64 is insertable through the hole 58 and the channel 60 and is extendable outwardly through the opening 62.
A plurality of sleeves 66 is coupled to the support panel 12 and is positioned on the front surface 14. Each of the sleeves 66 has an open top end 68, a closed lower end 70, a first side 72 and a second side 74. The open top end 68 of each sleeve 66 defines an access opening extending into the associated sleeve 66. Each sleeve 66 is configured to receive a labeling panel having indicia thereon through the access opening of the associated sleeve 66 for labeling of the support panel 12. Each sleeve 66 is translucent to permit viewing into each sleeve 66 and may be constructed from plastic or like material.
In use, as stated above and shown in the Figures, a user obtains a plurality of labeling panels, such as pieces of paper or the like, and writes on each of them so that each labeling panel designates various accessories of a uniform. The labeling panels are then placed into an associated sheath 48. A garment portion of the uniform, such as a jersey 76, pants or the like, is positioned on the hanger and the hook 64 is then extended through the hole 58 and outwardly through the opening 62. The accessory that corresponds to the writing on the associated sheath 48 is then placed into the associated pocket 34 so that the labeling panels on the pockets 34 describe the accessory positioned in the pocket 34. Shoes, cleats or the like can be positioned within the secondary pocket 42. The user can view into each of the pockets 34 to quickly determine if any portion of the uniform is missing. Such allows the user to determine at a glance whether all parts of a uniform are present. The assembly 10 can then be stored in a garment bag or folded using the connectors 35 for compact storage within a suitcase or the like.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure.
