Abstract
Implementations for a laundry cubby system are generally disclosed.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A laundry cubby, comprising:
a container, the container having a bottom, a top, and a plurality of sides each made of flexible fabric-type material coupled one or more rigid cardboard-type support boards, wherein the plurality of sides are coupled between the bottom and the top, wherein the bottom, top and two of the plurality of sides demarcate an aperture in the container, and wherein the container has a substantially rectangular prism shape; a handle coupled to the top of the container; a door component, the door component hingedly coupled to the bottom of the container so as to be configured lay flat within the container or fold out from the container, wherein the door component has a substantially rectangular shape and is sized to substantially removably cover the aperture in the container, wherein the door component is made of a clear vinyl type material; and a zipper-type matable fastener removably coupled between at least one of the plurality of sides and the door component.
2 . The laundry cubby of claim 1 , wherein the door component is hingedly coupled to the bottom so as to be configured to lay flat within the container.
3 . The laundry cubby of claim 1 , wherein the container has a substantially cubic shape and wherein the door component has a substantially square shape.
4 . A system, comprising:
a first laundry cubby sized to contain folded clothes of a first type, the first laundry cubby comprising:
a container, the container having a bottom, a top, and a plurality of sides each made of flexible fabric-type material coupled one or more rigid cardboard-type support boards, wherein the plurality of sides are coupled between the bottom and the top, wherein the bottom, top and two of the plurality of sides demarcate an aperture in the container, and wherein the container has a substantially rectangular prism shape,
a handle coupled to the top of the container,
a door component, the door component hingedly coupled to the bottom of the container so as to be configured lay flat within the container or fold out from the container, wherein the door component has a substantially rectangular shape and is sized to substantially removably cover the aperture in the container, wherein the door component is made of a clear vinyl type material, and
a zipper-type matable fastener removably coupled between at least one of the plurality of sides and the door component; and
a second laundry cubby sized to contain folded clothes of a second type, wherein the folded clothes of the second type are different in size from the folded clothes of a first type, the second laundry cubby comprising:
a second container, the second container having a bottom, a top, and a plurality of sides each made of flexible fabric-type material coupled one or more rigid cardboard-type support boards, wherein the plurality of sides of the second container are coupled between the bottom of the second container and the top of the second container, wherein the bottom, top and two of the plurality of sides of the second container demarcate an aperture in the second container, and wherein the second container has a substantially rectangular prism shape,
a second handle coupled to the top of the second container,
a second door component, the second door component hingedly coupled to the bottom of the second container so as to be configured lay flat within the second container or fold out from the second container, wherein the second door component has a substantially rectangular shape and is sized to substantially removably cover the aperture in the second container, wherein the second door component is made of a clear vinyl type material, and
a second zipper-type matable fastener removably coupled between at least one of the plurality of sides of the second container and the second door component.
5 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the first door component is hingedly coupled to the first bottom so as to be configured to lay flat within the first container.
6 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the container has a substantially cubic shape and wherein the door component has a substantially square shape.
7 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the first laundry cubby has an outward color and pattern different from an outward color and pattern of the second laundry cubby.
8 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the first laundry cubby has an outward color different from an outward color of the second laundry cubby.
9 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the first laundry cubby has an outward pattern different from an outward pattern of the second laundry cubby.
10 . A laundry cubby comprising:
a container, the container having a bottom, a top, and a plurality of sides, wherein the plurality of sides are coupled between the bottom and the top, wherein the bottom, top and two of the plurality of sides demarcate an aperture in the container, and wherein the container has a substantially rectangular prism shape; a door component, the door component hingedly coupled to the bottom of the container, wherein the door component has a substantially rectangular shape and sized to substantially removably cover the aperture in the container; a matable fastener removably coupled between at least one of the plurality of sides and the door component.
11 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the door component is made of a clear flexible material.
12 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the door component is made of a clear vinyl type material.
13 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the door component is hingedly coupled to the bottom so as to be configured to lay flat within the container or fold out from the container.
14 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the door component is hingedly coupled to the bottom so as to be configured to fold out from the container.
15 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the door component is hingedly coupled to the bottom so as to be configured to fold out from the container and lay flat within the container.
16 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the matable fastener is a zipper-type matable fastener, a button/hole-type matable fastener, a hook/loop-type matable fastener, or a snap-type matable fastener.
17 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , further comprising a handle coupled to the top of the container.
18 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the container has a substantially cubic shape and wherein the door component has a substantially square shape.
19 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the bottom, the top, and the plurality of sides are made of flexible material coupled one or more rigid support boards.
20 . The laundry cubby of claim 10 , wherein the bottom, the top, and the plurality of sides are made of flexible fabric-type material coupled one or more rigid cardboard-type support boards.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
