Abstract

The subject matter disclosed herein relates to a storage apparatus having multiple compartments. In one aspect, a multi-compartment bag can be formed of a flexible material, and each compartment of the multi-compartment bag can have two or more seams and one resealable opening edge. The seams in each compartment can include at least one tearable seam that can include at least a perforated seam configured to physically separate one of the compartments from the multi-compartment bag. In another aspect, a multi-compartment container can be formed of a rigid material having one or more removable lids, an upper portion, and a lower portion. The upper portion and the lower portion can each have a plurality of compartments. The upper portion can be separated from the lower portion by an intermediate layer.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 - 17 . (canceled) 
     
     
         18 . A storage apparatus comprising:
 a multi-compartment bag formed of a flexible material having an upper portion and a lower portion, the upper portion comprising an upper first compartment and an upper second compartment, the lower portion comprising a lower first compartment and a lower second compartment, the multi-compartment bag having one or more seams and one or more resealable opening edges, the multi-compartment bag having a front surface, a back surface, and a generally rectangular peripheral edge defined by a top edge, a bottom edge, and opposing side edges, the one or more seams including at least one tearable seam, the tearable seam including a perforated seam positioned between a first solid seam and a second solid seam, the perforated seam configured to physically separate one of the compartments from the multi-compartment bag.   
     
     
         19 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 one or more chambers separating the upper first compartment and the upper second compartment from the lower first compartment and the lower second compartment; and   one or more chamber closures removably attached to each of the one or more chambers.   
     
     
         20 . The storage apparatus of  claim 19 , wherein the one or more chamber closures are selected from a group consisting of a twist-off cap and a pop-off cap. 
     
     
         21 . The storage apparatus of  claim 19 , wherein the one or more chambers are smaller than each compartment of the multi-compartment bag. 
     
     
         22 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the perforated seam is positioned along a horizontal axis, a vertical axis, or at an angle. 
     
     
         23 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 one or more resealing elements selected from a group consisting of a zippered closure, a press lock, a magnetic closure, a snap closure, and a heat seal,   wherein each resealable opening edge is sealed and unsealed using at least one of the resealing elements.   
     
     
         24 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the flexible material is selected from a group consisting of hemp, cotton, cloth, burlap, mesh, plastic, and a laminated material. 
     
     
         25 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the flexible material is water proof or moisture proof. 
     
     
         26 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 a first handle comprising a first hole positioned on the front surface; and   a second handle comprising a second hole positioned on the back surface,   wherein the first hole and the second hole are substantially aligned with each other.   
     
     
         27 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 a first handle attached to the front surface at a front first position and a front second position; and   a second handle attached to the back surface at a back first position and a back second position;   wherein the front first position and the back first position are substantially aligned with each other, and   wherein the front second position and the back second position are substantially aligned with each other.   
     
     
         28 . The storage apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the upper first compartment and the upper second compartment share a first resealable opening edge along the top edge of the multi-compartment bag, and
 wherein the lower first compartment and the lower second compartment share a second resealable opening edge along the bottom edge of the multi-compartment bag.
