Abstract

In one embodiment a carry device includes a first inner carry pouch made from a first material and an outer bounding pouch or layer made from a second material defining at least one cavity therebetween. An access port may include a release and inflation actuator and provides volumetric access to the at least one cavity allowing passage of a pressurizing atmosphere or temperature effecting medium, or combination thereof. A sealable access is provided, and a common pressure is applied to an outer uniform-pressure region of a non-rigid or rigid item being carried thereby preventing damage and crushing thereof through high contact pressure gradients. In another embodiment handles are inflatable to aid sealing the inner carry pouch and provide a comfortable grip.
