Embodiment Construction

[0040] Described herein is a luggage case including a frame assembly. The luggage case may include a compartment enclosed by opposing shells, ie a front shell and a rear shell. Each shell may be a relatively rigid shell formed from any type of material used for hard-sided suitcases. The frame assembly may include peripheral frame members disposed along opposite edges / rims of the shell of the luggage case. The luggage case may further include peripheral components anchored to the frame assembly, such as locks and handles. The frame assembly and perimeter components may be configured to be substantially flush with an exterior surface of the luggage shell.

[0041] By way of example and not limitation, figure 1 , 2 and 3 show the luggage case 100 including the frame assembly 102 . The luggage case 100 may include a main compartment defined by two opposing shells, such as a front shell 104 and a rear shell 106, that are pivotally joined by a hinge member 108 to generally A p...

Abstract

The luggage case (100) may include a first housing (106) and a second housing (104) pivotally coupled to the first housing (106). The luggage case may include a compression latch (130) configured to releasably secure the first housing (106) to the second housing (104). The luggage case may further include a frame assembly (102). The frame assembly may include opposed first (148) and second (146) frame members. The first frame member (148) and the second frame member (146) may be joined to the first housing (106) and the second housing (104), respectively. The first and second frame members (146, 148) may be pivotally joined together by a hinge (108). The first frame member (148) may be configured with a first recess (240b) to receive at least a portion of the compression latch (130) therein such that the first frame member (148) , outer surfaces of the compression latch (130) and the first housing (106) are substantially flush with each other when the compression latch (130) is in its latched position.

Description

technical field [0001] This disclosure generally relates to luggage. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to hard-sided luggage with frame assemblies. Background technique [0002] Luggage cases are commonly used by travelers to transport items. Among the various types of luggage, hard sided luggage has gained popularity. Hard-sided luggage may generally include two opposing shells, a closing and / or locking mechanism attached to the shells, a carrying handle, a telescoping handle, and wheels. The shells of hard-sided luggage may be made of polymer materials, which may allow the shells to retain their shape when subjected to impacts, but still have a degree of flexibility to absorb the impacts. Compared to soft-sided luggage panels (which can often be made of fabric materials), hard-sided luggage shells can withstand abrasion, stamping, contaminants such as dust and moisture, etc., better than soft-sided luggage panels and better than soft-sided luggage panels...
