Abstract
An electronic handbag is provided. The electronic handbag integrates a computing device so as to provide electronic functionality including tracking functionality and an external user interface for accessing the functionality and unlocking an enclosure. The enclosure provides a power source and charging plugs for powering smart devices adapted to be securely carried in the enclosure. The electronic handbag may also provide external solar panels for powering the power source and the other electronic functionality.
Claims6
An electronic handbag, comprising:
- a plurality of sidewalls defining an enclosure and an opening communicating thereto;
- a flap pivotably connected along a periphery of said opening for moving between an open position and a closed position;
- a lock clip provided along a periphery of the flap for engaging a portion of the plurality of sidewalls;
- a computing device integrated with the plurality of sidewalls;
- one or more user interfaces electrically coupled to the computing device, each user interface provided along an exterior surface of the plurality of sidewalls;
- the computing device configured for positioning the lock clip between a locked engagement and an unlocked engagement with said portion of the plurality of sidewalls through inputting a code by way at least one of the user interfaces;
- and
- one or more solar panels provided along an upward-facing surface of the flap, wherein each solar panel is electrically connected to the computing device.

An electronic handbag, comprising:
- a plurality of sidewalls defining an enclosure and an opening communicating thereto;
- a flap pivotably connected by way of an electromechanical hinge to a periphery of said opening for moving between an open position and a closed position;
- a lock clip provided along a periphery of the flap for engaging a portion of the plurality of sidewalls;
- a computing device integrated with the plurality of sidewalls;
- one or more user interfaces electrically coupled to the computing device, each user interface provided along an exterior surface of the plurality of sidewalls;
- the computing device configured for positioning the lock clip between a locked engagement and an unlocked engagement with said portion of the plurality of sidewalls through inputting a code by way at least one of the user interfaces, wherein the computing device is configured to provide tracking functionality so that an operatively associated smart device can track the physical location of the handbag;
- one or more solar panels provided along an upward-facing surface of the flap, wherein each solar panel is electrically connected to the computing device;
- a powering device in the enclosure, wherein the power device is electrically coupled to each solar panel, and wherein the power device is configured to provide power to one or more independent smart devices;
- and
- a band for removably securing each smart device along an inner surface of the plurality of sidewalls while each smart device is being charged by the powering device.
