ABSTRACT:
A combination body rest (for lounging at the beach, for example) and totebag includes a pair of frame members hinged at the tops thereof and covered with fabric so as to form a storage compartment. The unit further includes a seat panel adapted to serve as a ground cover when the unit is used as a body rest. Tabs provided with cooperating snap fasteners are secured to the bottom portions of the frame members. The tabs are adapted to be fastened to one another when the unit is carried as a totebag to (1) hold the bottoms of the frame members relatively close to one another, (2) provide added support for the contents of the storage compartment, and (3) maintain the seat panel in a rolled-up, out-of-the-way position beneath the storage compartment. When the unit is used as a body rest the tabs are unsnapped to permit the bottom portions of the frame members to be moved further away from one another and provide a relatively sturdy base, and to release the seat panel so that it may be unrolled to serve as a ground cover for the user's seat and legs. A head cushion designed to be wrapped around the top portions of the frame members to cushion the user's head when the unit is employed as a body rest may be conveniently carried in the storage compartment when the unit is carried as a totebag.
