ABSTRACT:
A convenience container (e.g., bag, tote, or case), mounted on a person (e.g., via a belt or belt loop), work bench, or work area, simplifies access and organization of tie wraps or cable ties in the work environment. The can be made of a heavy canvas cloth and includes a cut-out in the front that allows a user to reach in with his/her fingers, grasp a tie in the tote, and pull it out for use while preventing the other ties from spilling out at the same time. An access flap at the top, bottom, or side (optionally closed with Velcro, snap, or zipper) allows loading and unloading of ties into and from the tote. A belt loop on the back allows easy attachment to a utility or regular belt on the side, back, or front of one's person. Alternatively, a belt is included with the tote. Optionally, for larger versions of the tote, an additional (removable) thigh strap is included which allows the tote to be more securely fastened to the leg and prevents it from swinging free. Other optional features include an eyelet at the top that supports ease of mounting to a workbench or work environment, use of a translucent material such that the contents can be easily determined, and, in multiple pocket configurations, color and/or tactile coding of the pockets for ease of differentiation of the pocket contents.
