Bags and bag assemblies

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a bag assembly comprising a first bag with a first connector configuration, a second bag with a second connector configuration that is different than the first connector configuration, and an adapter strap configured to couple the first bag and the second bag to form a self-stabilizing bag assembly. The adapter strap may comprise an asymmetric strap comprising a first connector or a first set of connectors disposed on a first side of the adapter strap and a second connector or a second set of connectors disposed on a second side of the adapter strap.

 (i) a first connector or a first set of connectors disposed on a first side of the adapter strap; and 
 (ii) a second connector or a second set of connectors disposed on a second side of the adapter strap. 
   
     
     
         2 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first connector or the first set of connectors comprises one or more clips, hooks, or G-shaped buckles. 
     
     
         3 . The bag assembly of  claim 2 , wherein the one or more clips, hooks, or G-shaped buckles are configured to engage or interface with one or more loops or connection rails provided on or attached to the first bag or the second bag. 
     
     
         4 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the second connector or the second set of connectors comprises a buckle member. 
     
     
         5 . The bag assembly of  claim 4 , wherein the buckle member is configured to engage or interface with one or more other buckle members provided on or attached to the first bag or the second bag. 
     
     
         6 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first side of the adapter strap comprises a single connector. 
     
     
         7 . The bag assembly of  claim 6 , wherein the second side of the adapter strap comprises a plurality of connectors. 
     
     
         8 . The bag assembly of  claim 7 , wherein the plurality of connectors comprises a different type of connector than the single connector. 
     
     
         9 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first side of the adapter strap comprises a plurality of connectors. 
     
     
         10 . The bag assembly of  claim 9 , wherein the second side of the adapter strap comprises a single connector. 
     
     
         11 . The bag assembly of  claim 10 , wherein the single connector comprises a different type of connector than the plurality of connectors. 
     
     
         12 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first bag comprises a luggage bag with one or more buckle members configured to engage or receive the first connector or the first set of connectors. 
     
     
         13 . The bag assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the second bag comprises an elongated travel bag with one or more loops or connection rails configured to engage or receive the second connector or the second set of connectors. 
     
     
         14 . The bag assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the second bag comprises another luggage bag with one or more loops or connection rails configured to engage or receive the second connector or the second set of connectors. 
     
     
         15 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first bag comprises a luggage bag with one or more loops or connection rails configured to engage or receive the first connector or the first set of connectors. 
     
     
         16 . The bag assembly of  claim 15 , wherein the second bag comprises an elongated travel bag with one or more buckle members configured to engage or receive the second connector or the second set of connectors. 
     
     
         17 . The bag assembly of  claim 15 , wherein the second bag comprises another luggage bag with one or more buckle members configured to engage or receive the second connector or the second set of connectors. 
     
     
         18 . The bag assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the adapter strap comprises a first strap, a second strap, and a third strap, wherein the first connector is attached or coupled to the first strap or the second strap, and wherein the second connector is attached or coupled to the third strap. 
     
     
         19 . The bag assembly of  claim 18 , wherein the first strap and the second strap are joined together along a first attachment interface. 
     
     
         20 . The bag assembly of  claim 19 , wherein the third strap is joined to the first strap and/or the second strap along a second attachment interface extending around the first attachment interface.
