Abstract
An expandable carry pouch defining an interior compartment sized and dimensioned to carry tactical gear, the interior compartment defined by a front wall with forward and bottom panel segments, a back wall opposed to the front wall with forward and bottom panel segments, and bottom panels with interlocking bottom panel flaps. The front and back walls have a plurality of vertical and horizontal channels such that a binding device is woven through the vertical and horizontal channels to compress the front and back wall towards one another.
Claims20
An expandable carry pouch defining an interior compartment defined by
- a. a front wall with top, bottom and proximal and distal side edges with a forward panel segment extending in a substantially perpendicular plane outward from a proximal side edge of the front wall and a bottom panel segment extending in a substantially perpendicular plane outward from the bottom edge of the front wall;
- b. a back wall top, bottom and proximal and distal side edges opposed to the front wall with a rearward panel segment extending in a substantially perpendicular plane outward from the distal side edge of the back wall and a bottom panel segment extending in a substantially perpendicular plane outward from the bottom edge of the back wall;
- c. a front wall bottom panel flap extending substantially perpendicularly outward from the bottom edge of the front wall and adjacent to the front wall bottom panel segment;
- d. a back wall bottom panel flap extending substantially perpendicularly outward from the bottom edge of the back wall and adjacent to the back wall bottom panel segment wherein the back wall bottom panel flap interlocks with the front wall bottom panel flap and such that the forward panel segment is opposite rearward panel segment;
- e. at least one vertical channel along the perimeter of the front wall and back wall;
- f. at least one horizontal channel parallel to the bottom panel segments and flaps of the front wall and back wall;
- and
- g. a top opening
- wherein the front wall and back wall are compressed towards one another using a binding device with ends weaved or laced through at least one vertical channel and at least one horizontal channel.
The pouch of claim 3 wherein the ends of the binding device extend through the aperture in the horizontal channel.
