A closure having a first flange with first engagement mechanism and a second with a second engagement mechanism disposed between the first end and the second end. The first engagement mechanism configured to engage the second engagement mechanism. A slider configured to selectively engage the first engagement mechanism and the second mechanism when moved in a first direction and disengage the first engagement mechanism from the second engagement mechanism when moved in a second direction. The closure is substantially watertight in the closed position.

Closure systems and insulating devices having closure systems

A container may include a body assembly comprising a shell, an inner liner forming a storage compartment, a foam layer positioned between the shell and the inner liner, and an opening providing access to the storage compartment. The container may also include a lid assembly attached to the body assembly and configured to seal the opening. The lid assembly may include an upper inner liner, an upper insulating portion, and an upper shell portion, and the upper insulating portion may be positioned between the upper inner liner portion and the upper shell portion.

Insulating device

An insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching devices, in the closed configuration. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pull handle assembly with a telescopic three-stage arm configuration defined by a stowed configuration, a partially extended configuration, and a fully extended configuration. In other examples, the insulating container further includes a wheel assembly with a pair of wheels mounted with one or two axles, and further including a wheel grommet for absorbing shock and cushioning the axle.

Insulating container

An insulating device including an outer shell, an inner liner forming a storage compartment, an insulating layer positioned in between the outer shell and the inner liner, wherein the insulating layer provides insulation for the storage compartment, and an opening configured to allow access to the storage compartment.

Insulating device and method for forming insulating device

A container device with an outer shell that has an opening that is sealed by a closure mechanism. The closure mechanism may include resealable closure elements that are configured to partially or wholly seal the opening. In some examples, the closure elements may be magnetic strips. In addition, the closure mechanism may include curved members to prevent the opening from closing when the closure mechanism is in an open configuration.

Container with resealable closure

An insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching devices, in the closed configuration. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pull handle assembly with a telescopic three-stage arm configuration defined by a stowed configuration, a partially extended configuration, and a fully extended configuration. In other examples, the insulating container further includes a wheel assembly with a pair of wheels mounted with one or two axles, and further including a wheel grommet for absorbing shock and cushioning the axle. In still other examples, the insulating container further includes a drain plug assembly on the rear sidewall adjacent to the bottom portion of the base, the drain plug assembly comprising a main tube that cooperatively engages with an outer tube with a plurality of ratchet teeth that engage one or more ratchet keys on the main tube.

An example bag may include an outer shell comprising a front panel, a rear panel, a top sidewall, a bottom sidewall, a first sidewall, a second sidewall forming, and a closure configured to move from an open position to a closed position. The bag may also include a pair of adjustable straps. The adjustable straps can be configured to move from a first backpack carry position to a second hand carry position by releasing the adjustable straps from the outer shell of the bag from the first carry position and securing the adjustable straps to the second carry position.
