Abstract

Provided is a portable article container. The portable article container according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: a accommodation main body which is portable and includes an accommodation portion configured to accommodate an article; a battery configured to provide power to charge a main battery of a portable electronic device; and at least one charging unit configured to transmit power stored in the battery to the portable electronic device through at least one method of a wireless method and a wired method.

Claims

1. A portable article container comprising:

a accommodation main body which is portable and includes an accommodation portion configured to accommodate an article;

a battery configured to provide power to charge a main battery of a portable electronic device; and

at least one charging unit configured to transmit power stored in the battery to the portable electronic device through at least one method of a wireless method and a wired method.

2. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein the accommodation main body is a main bag body.

3. The portable article container of claim 2, wherein the main bag body is any one selected among a hiking bag, a backpack, a handbag, a briefcase, and a bookbag.

4. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein:

the accommodation main body includes a front portion, a rear portion, and a bottom portion each having a predetermined area; and

the battery is embedded in at least one place among the front portion, the rear portion, and the bottom portion.

5. The portable article container of claim 4, wherein:

the accommodation main body includes a cover portion which extends from the rear portion and totally or partially covers the front portion; and

the battery is embedded in both the rear portion and the cover portion.

6. The portable article container of claim 1, further comprising at least one switch configured to change a driving mode of a circuit portion electrically connected to the battery.

7. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein:

the charging unit is a connection port electrically connected to a circuit portion; and

the portable electronic device is electrically connected to the connection port through a charging cable to charge the main battery.

8. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein a device fixing portion configured to prevent movement of the portable electronic device inserted into the accommodation portion is provided on an inner surface of the accommodation main body.

9. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein the charging unit is a wireless power transfer antenna configured to transmit wireless power for charging the main battery of the portable electronic device by using the power supplied from the battery.

10. The portable article container of claim 7, wherein the wireless power transfer antenna serves:

as a wireless power transmitting antenna configured to charge the main battery of the portable electronic device by using the power stored in the battery by being used as the wireless power transmitting antenna; and

as a wireless power receiving antenna configured to receive wireless power supplied from an external charging device to charge the battery.

11. The portable article container of claim 10, wherein the wireless power transfer antenna serves as the wireless power receiving antenna configured to receive the wireless power supplied from the external charging device in the case in which an inductance of the wireless power transfer antenna changes due to an interaction between the wireless power transfer antenna and a wireless power transmitting antenna included in the external charging device and a power signal transmitted from the external charging device is detected.

12. The portable article container of claim 9, wherein a part of the power stored in the battery is used as driving power for driving the wireless power transfer antenna.

13. The portable article container of claim 1, further comprising a device accommodation member which has an accommodation space configured to accommodate the portable electronic device and is disposed in the accommodation portion,

wherein the battery and the charging unit are embedded in the device accommodation member.

14. The portable article container of claim 13, wherein the main battery of the portable electronic device is charged by using wireless power transmitted through a wireless power transfer antenna in a state in which the portable electronic device is accommodated in the accommodation space.

15. The portable article container of claim 13, wherein the device accommodation member is integrally formed with the accommodation main body or is formed to be separable from the accommodation main body.

16. The portable article container of claim 13, wherein the device accommodation member is formed as a pouch type accommodation member.

17. The portable article container of claim 1, wherein:

the battery is a flexible battery having flexibility;

the flexible battery includes an electrode assembly having a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator, and an exterior member which encapsulates the electrode assembly and an electrolyte;

each of the exterior member and the electrode assembly includes a pattern for contraction and relaxation while being bent; and

the patterns of the exterior member and the electrode assembly include patterns which coincide with each other.

18. The portable article container of claim 17, wherein the patterns are entirely or partially formed over an overall length of the battery.

19. A portable article container comprising:

a accommodation main body including an accommodation portion configured to accommodate an article;

a flexible battery configured to supply power to charge a main battery of a portable electronic device;

a wireless power transfer antenna which serves as an antenna configured to transmit or receive wireless power; and

a circuit portion configured to control driving of the wireless power transfer antenna,

wherein the wireless power transfer antenna uses one antenna to receive wireless power supplied from an outside to charge power of the battery or to transmit the power stored in the battery to charge the main battery of the portable electronic device through a wireless method.

20. The portable article container of claim 19, wherein the flexible battery is embedded in the accommodation main body or is embedded in a device accommodation member which has an accommodation space configured to accommodate the portable electronic device and is disposed in the accommodation portion.
