Abstract

A hard luggage case with changeable case portion includes a first and a second case portion; a closure structure connected to between the first and the second case portion for binding them together to form the luggage case; a coupling structure provided in the luggage case with one longitudinal edge fixedly connected to the first case portion and another longitudinal edge detachably connected to the second case portion; and a covering structure externally provided on the luggage case corresponding to the coupling structure, and having one longitudinal edge externally fixedly connected to the first case portion and another longitudinal edge forming a free end. When the coupling structure and the covering structure are detached from the second case portion, the closure structure allows the second case portion to completely separate from the first one and be replaced with a structurally identical third case portion that shows a different exterior design.
