Securing tote bag with detachable towel

Abstract

A tote bag and detachable towel assembly for providing a readily portable towel that may be selectively secured to a seating structure, such as a chair, includes a tote bag having a plurality of external and internal fasteners, a towel base adapted to be stored in the tote bag and selectively attach to the internal fasteners of the tote bag, and a seat securing member adapted to be stored in the tote bag and selectively attach to the external fasteners of the tote bag. When the seat securing member is attached to the tote bag, it may be wrapped around the back of a target seat so as to secure the tote bag to the target seat. The towel member may then be spread out over the target seat and secured to the tote bag to prevent the towel member from blowing away.

1 . A tote bag and detachable towel assembly, comprising:
 a tote bag defining a container having with an exterior surface and an interior surface, wherein said tote bag is adapted to be secured to a seating structure;   at least one first securing fastener integrated with said tote bag;   a towel member defining a towel base having a proximal edge;   at least one top edge towel fastener integral with the proximal edge, wherein said top edge towel fastener and said at least one first securing fastener are adapted to be releasably secured together, thereby enabling the towel member to be coupled with the tote bag; and   an integrated speaker system integrated in to the tote bag, where the speaker operatively connects to a wireless communication module adapted to allow music or other media content from an electronic device paired with the wireless communication module to be played over the speaker.

         7 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said at least one first securing fastener is disposed on said interior surface. 
     
     
         8 . (canceled) 
     
     
         9 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 8 , additionally comprising:
 said towel base including a left side edge, a right side edge and a distal edge;   a pair of corner fasteners integral with at least one of a first corner formed from the left side edge and the distal edge and a second corner formed from the right side edge and the distal edge; and   said pair of corner fasteners operative to configure the towel member to legs of a seating structure when the towel member has been coupled with the tote bag.   
     
     
         10 . A tote bag and detachable towel assembly, comprising:
 a tote bag defining a container having with an exterior surface and an interior surface;   at least one first securing fastener integrated with said tote bag;   at least one second securing fastener integrated with said tote bag;   a towel member defining a towel base having a proximal edge;   at least one top edge towel fastener integral with the top edge, wherein said top edge towel fastener and said at least one first securing fastener are adapted to be releasably secured together, thereby enabling the towel member to be coupled with the tote bag;   a seat securing member configured to selectively attach to said tote bag, wherein said seat securing member adapts the tote bag to be secured to a seating structure;   at least one strap fastener integral with said seat securing member, wherein said seat securing member is configured to selectively attach to said tote bag by the at least one strap fastener integral engaging the at least one second securing fastener;   wherein said tote bag adapted to be secured to a seating structure through said seat securing member; and   an integrated speaker system integrated in to the tote bag, where the speaker operatively connects to a wireless communication module adapted to allow music or other media content from an electronic device paired with the wireless communication module to be played over the speaker.   
     
     
         11 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 10 , wherein said seat securing member defines an elongated, elastic strap. 
     
     
         12 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 10 , wherein said at least one second securing fastener is disposed on said exterior surface. 
     
     
         13 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 12 , wherein said at least one first securing fastener is disposed on said interior surface. 
     
     
         14 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 10 , wherein said at least one first securing fastener is disposed on said interior surface. 
     
     
         15 . (canceled) 
     
     
         16 . The tote bag and detachable towel assembly of  claim 15 , additionally comprising:
 said towel base including a left side edge, a right side edge and a distal edge;   a pair of corner fasteners integral with at least one of a first corner formed from the left side edge and the distal edge and a second corner formed from the right side edge and the distal edge; and   said pair of corner fasteners operative to configure the towel member to legs of a seating structure when the towel member has been coupled with the tote bag.
