Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Technical Field
  • The present invention relates to a bag, and more particularly to a zippered bag.
  • 2. Description of Related Art
  • In order to keep the goods carried on the body safe, the bags usually are provided with a device to close an opening thereof, such as buckle, Velcro, zipper, and so on. Zipper is the commonest device to close and open the opening of the bag.
  • The conventional bag is provided with the zipper on a side, usually the top side, thereof. When the zipper is unzipped, the opening of the bag is opened, and the user may put goods in the bag. When a size of a good is slightly smaller than the bag, the opening would be not wide enough for the good although the good may be received in the bag.
  • Besides, the bag with a big opening would be popular to user to put goods in the bag, or take goods out. Some bags are provided with a zipper extending on two or more sides of the bag. Such bag has a big opening as well as a long zipper, however, it could not prevent the zipper from being damaged when the user widen the opening of the bag.
  • BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • In view of the above, the primary objective of the present invention is to provide a zippered bag, which has a big opening for access of goods, and may protect the zipper when the user is widen the opening.
  • In order to achieve the objective of the present invention, the present invention provides a zippered bag including a bag member and a zipper. The bag member has a first side, a second side, which is connected to the first side, and an opening, which extends from the first side to the second side. The zipper is provided on the bag member at an edge of the opening, wherein the zipper has a first section on the first side and a second section on the second side; and an end of the first section is closer to a joining point of the first section and the second section than a middle portion of the first section.
  • With such design, the bag member would have a big opening extending from the first side to the second side. Beside, an end of the zipper is closer to the joining point of the first and the second sections than a middle portion of the first section, which means that the direction changes in the first section. It could prevent the zipper from being damaged while the opening is being widened.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWINGS
  • The present invention will be best understood by referring to the following detailed description of some illustrative embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, showing the zipper on the backpack;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a second preferred embodiment of the present invention, showing the zipper on the tube bag; and
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a third preferred embodiment of the present invention, showing the second type of the zipper on the tube bag.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • FIG. 1 shows a zippered bag 1 of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, which is a backpack, including a bag member 10 and a zipper 12.
  • The bag member 10 has a firs side 10 a and a second side 10 b, and the first side 10 a is connected to the second side 10 b. The bag member 10 is provided with an opening extending from the first side 10 a to the second side 10 b.
  • The zipper 12 is provided on the bag member 10 at an edge of the opening. The zipper 12 has a first section 12 b on the first side 10 a, and a second section 12 d on the second side 10 b. The zipper 12 has an end 12 a on the first side 10 a, and a joining point 12 d, which is the point where the first section 12 b is connected to the second section 12 d. The end 12 a of the first section 12 b is closer to the joining point 12 d than a middle portion of the first section 12 b. In other words, the first section 12 b of the zipper 12 goes in a circular direction, and the second section 12 d is straight.
  • The zippered bag 1 of the first preferred embodiment has a big opening. When the first section 12 b is unzipped, a portion of the first side 10 a, within the first second 12 b, could be flipped open to access small goods. When both the first second 12 b and the second section 12 d are unzipped, it could access large goods through the entire opening. It is noted that the first section 12 b of the zipper 12 may go in any direction other than circular direction.
  • FIG. 2 shows a zippered bag 2 of the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, which is a tube bag, including a bag member 20 and a zipper 22. The zipper 22 has a circular first section 22 a on a first side 20 a of the bag member 20, and a straight section on a second side of the bag member 20. The same as above, the first section 22 a of the zipper 22 may go in any direction other than circular direction. The zippers of above embodiments may provide a big opening to access large goods.
  • FIG. 3 shows a zippered bag 3 of the third preferred embodiment of the present invention, which is a tube bag as well, including a bag member 30 and a zipper 32. The bag member 30 has a first side 30 a, a second side 30 b, and a third side 30 c, wherein the first side 30 a is connected to the second side 30 b, the second side 30 b is connected to the third side 30 c, but the first side 30 a is not connected to the third side 30 c.
  • The zipper 32 extends from the first side 30 a, through the second side 30 b, to the third side 30 c. The zipper 32 has a first section 32 a on the first side 30 a, a second section 32 c on the second side 30 b, and a third section 32 e on the third side 30 c. An end of the first section 32 a is closer to a joining point 32 b, which is the point where the first section 32 a is connected to the second section 32 c, than a middle portion of the first section 32 a, and an end 32 f of the third section 32 e is closer to a joining point 32 d, which is the point where the second section 32 c is connected to the third section 32 e, than a middle portion of the third section 32 e. The first section 32 a and the third section 32 c go in a circular direction, and the second section 32 c is straight.
  • When any two or more sections of the zipper 32 are unzipped, it could access large goods through the opening.
  • The zipper 32 is provided with two sliders 321 to unzip the zipper 32 in both directions. For example, in a condition of both of the sliders 321 are at the joining point 32 b of the first second 32 a and the second section 32 c, the opening on the first side 30 a is opened when the slider 321 is drawn toward the end of the first side 30 a, and the opening on the second side 30 b is opened when the other slider 321 is drawn toward the other end of the second side 30 b.
  • It must be pointed out that the embodiments described above are only some preferred embodiments of the present invention. All equivalent structures which employ the concepts disclosed in this specification and the appended claims should fall within the scope of the present invention.
