Abstract

A storage assembly for vacuum sealing objects in a suitcase includes the suitcase. A bag is coupled to the suitcase. The bag is positioned within an interior of the suitcase. The bag may contain a plurality of objects. A pump is coupled to the suitcase. The pump is in communication with the bag. The pump urges air outwardly from the bag. The bag may collapse around the plurality of objects so additional space is created within the bag.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . A storage assembly comprising:
 a suitcase;   a bag coupled to said suitcase, said bag being positioned within an interior of said suitcase such that said bag is configured to contain a plurality of objects; and   a pump coupled to said suitcase such that said pump is in communication with said bag, said pump urging air outwardly from said bag such that said bag is configured to collapse around the plurality of objects wherein additional space is created within said bag.   
     
     
         2 . The storage assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising said bag having an outer wall, a top side of said outer wall of said bag having a cut extending between each of a first and a second lateral side of said outer wall of said bag to access an interior of said bag. 
     
     
         3 . The storage assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising a coupler coupled to said cut on said bag, said coupler selectively closing said cut on said bag such that said coupler forms an airtight seal, said coupler selectively opening said cut on said bag. 
     
     
         4 . The storage assembly according to  claim 1 , further comprising a housing having an outer wall, a back side of said outer wall of said housing being coupled to an outer surface of said suitcase. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly according to  claim 4 , further comprising said pump being coupled to said housing such that said pump is positioned within an interior of said housing. 
     
     
         6 . The storage assembly according to  claim 4 , further comprising a suction port coupled to said back side of said outer wall of said housing. 
     
     
         7 . The storage assembly according to  claim 6 , further comprising said suction port extending through said suitcase such that said suction port is fluidly coupled between an interior of said bag and said pump. 
     
     
         8 . The storage assembly according to  claim 4 , further comprising an exhaust coupled to a first lateral side of said outer wall of said housing. 
     
     
         9 . The storage assembly according to  claim 8 , further comprising said exhaust being in fluid communication with said pump such that said pump urges air outwardly through said exhaust. 
     
     
         10 . The storage assembly according to  claim 4 , further comprising an actuator coupled to a front side of said outer wall of said housing. 
     
     
         11 . The storage assembly according to  claim 10 , further comprising said actuator being electrically coupled to said pump such that said actuator actuates and de-actuates said pump. 
     
     
         12 . The storage assembly according to  claim 4 , further comprising a power supply coupled to said housing. 
     
     
         13 . The storage assembly according to  claim 12 , further comprising said power supply being electrically coupled to an actuator. 
     
     
         14 . The storage assembly according to  claim 13 , further comprising said power supply comprising at least one battery. 
     
     
         15 . A storage assembly comprising:
 a suitcase;   a bag, said bag having an outer wall, a top side of said outer wall of said bag having a cut extending between each of a first and a second lateral side of said outer wall of said bag to access an interior of said bag, said bag being positioned within an interior of said suitcase such that said bag is configured to contain a plurality of objects;   a coupler coupled to said cut on said bag, said coupler selectively closing said cut on said bag such that said coupler forms an airtight seal, said coupler selectively opening said cut on said bag;   a housing having an outer wall, a back side of said outer wall of said housing being coupled to an outer surface of said suitcase;   a pump coupled to said housing such that said pump is positioned within an interior of said housing;   a suction port coupled to said back side of said outer wall of housing, said suction port extending through said suitcase such that said suction port is fluidly coupled between an interior of said bag and said pump, said pump urging air outwardly from said bag such that said bag is configured to collapse around the plurality of objects wherein additional space is created within said bag;   an exhaust coupled to a first lateral side of said outer wall of said housing, said exhaust being in fluid communication with said pump such that said pump urges air outwardly through said exhaust;   an actuator coupled to a front side of said outer wall of said housing, said actuator being electrically coupled to said pump such that said actuator actuates and de-actuates said pump; and   a power supply coupled to said housing, said power supply being electrically coupled to said actuator, said power supply comprising at least one battery.
