[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection.

[0018] In the description of the embodiments, it should be understood that terms such as "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they should not be understood as limitations on the embodiments.

[0019] A suitcase is an important piece of equipment that people need to use during their daily travels. People usually put the items they need for travel in the suitcase for carrying. However, when traveling, some items such as water bottles, flashlights, umbrellas, power banks, etc. need to be available at any time, so it is very inconvenient to take them out of the suitcase. When an umbrella is wet, it can only be placed outside the suitcase, making it difficult to store.

[0020] After recognizing the above problems, the present application proposes and discloses a suitcase with an external storage device, which can externally store some items that can be taken at any time without occupying the internal usable space of the suitcase, thereby facilitating travel.

[0021] Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a suitcase with an external storage device, including a box body 1, a mounting plate 2 and a storage assembly 3, wherein the mounting plate 2 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the box body 1, and the storage assembly 3 is arranged on the mounting plate 2; like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the storage assembly 3 includes a driving assembly 4 and multiple groups of adjacent connecting assemblies 5 for transmitting driving force. The driving assembly 4 is fixed on the mounting plate 2, and two adjacent groups of connecting assemblies 5 are movably connected in sequence. The driving end of the driving assembly 4 is connected to one of the groups of connecting assemblies 5.

[0022] In this embodiment, items that need to be available at any time, such as water bottles, flashlights, umbrellas, power banks, etc., can be directly placed in the multiple groups of connecting components 5 of the storage component 3. After the connecting components 5 are driven by the driving components 4, the connecting components 5 gather and fix the items to complete the storage.

[0023] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connection assembly 5 includes an upper connection plate 6, a lower connection plate 7 and an X-shaped member 8, and the upper connection plate 6 and the lower connection plate 7 are V-shaped structural plates; Specifically, the four ends of the X-shaped member 8 are respectively set to a first upper end 9, a second upper end 10, a first lower end 11 and a second lower end 12. The first upper end 9 is movably connected to one end of the upper connecting plate 6, the first lower end 11 is movably connected to one end of the lower connecting plate 7, the second upper end 10 is movably connected to the other end of the upper connecting plate 6 on an adjacent group of connecting components 5, and the second lower end 12 is movably connected to the other end of the lower connecting plate 7 on an adjacent group of connecting components 5. Multiple groups of connecting components 5 are movably connected in sequence according to the above steps to form a polygonal ring structure.

[0024] In this embodiment, under the action of the driving component 4, the upper connecting plate 6 moves downward to drive the X-shaped member 8, and the first upper end 9 and the second upper end 10 on the X-shaped member 8 move downward, and the distance between each other increases, the height of the first lower end 11 and the second lower end 12 remains unchanged, but the distance between each other increases. At this time, the items to be stored are placed between the multiple groups of connecting components 5, and then under the action of the driving component 4, the upper connecting plate 6 moves upward to drive the X-shaped member 8, and the first upper end 9 and the second upper end 10 on the X-shaped member 8 move upward, and the distance between each other decreases, the height of the first lower end 11 and the second lower end 12 remains unchanged, and the distance between each other is also reduced accordingly, thereby laterally fixing the items between the multiple groups of connecting components 5.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, elastic bands 13 are connected to the inner sides of the multiple groups of X-shaped members 8 , and the elastic bands 13 are fixed on the central axes of the multiple groups of X-shaped members 8 .

[0026] In this embodiment, when items are stored in multiple sets of connection components 5, under the action of the driving component 4, the multiple sets of connection components 5 are simultaneously close to the items for laterally fixing, and the elastic belt 13 is tightened under the elastic action to increase the tightness of the stored items and prevent the items from falling out of the storage component 3.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, multiple groups of fixing plates 14 are provided on the inner side of the elastic band 13, and the inner side of the fixing plate 14 is arranged in a gradual arc surface, and the width of the upper end of the arc surface is greater than the width of the lower end of the arc surface, the inner arc diameter of the upper end of the arc surface is greater than the inner arc diameter of the lower end of the arc surface, and the lower end of the fixing plate 14 is inclined toward one side of the arc surface.

[0028] In this embodiment, since the inner arc diameter of the upper end of the fixing plate 14 is larger than the inner arc diameter of the lower end of the arc-shaped surface, multiple groups of fixing plates 14 are spaced apart to form a cylindrical wall that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. This is more conducive to fixing items such as bottles and cups. The lower end of the fixing plate 14 is in closer contact with the items, which can prevent the stored items from sinking and falling.

[0029] In this embodiment, the plurality of fixing plates 14 are made of rubber material to increase the friction between the fixing plates 14 and the stored items, thereby making the stored items more stably fixed.

[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner angles of the V-shaped structural plates of the upper connecting plate 6 and the lower connecting plate 7 are set at 120 degrees, and the inner angle surfaces of multiple groups of lower connecting plates 7 are connected and fixed with net bags 15, which are made of elastic material.

[0031] In this embodiment, in a natural state, the bottom of the items stored in the multiple groups of connecting parts can be received by the net bag 15 to prevent the items from falling from the storage component 3. At the same time, the weight of the items applies force to the elastic net, and the elastic net pulls the multiple groups of lower connecting plates 7 to reduce the distance between each other and get closer to each other. When the lower connecting plates 7 get closer, they drive the first upper end 9 and the second upper end 10 on the X-shaped member 8 to move upward, and the distance between them is reduced. The X-shaped member 8 drives the elastic belt 13 and the fixed plate 14 to fit the stored items more closely.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a driving groove 16 is provided on the mounting plate 2 , and the driving assembly 4 is arranged on the driving groove 16 .

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the driving component 4 includes a fixed rod 17, a fixed ring 18, a movable sleeve 19 and a push-pull plate 20. The lower end of the fixed rod 17 is fixedly arranged on the lower wall of the driving groove 16. A fixed pile 21 is provided at the lower end of the fixed rod 17 to increase the stability of the fixed rod 17. The movable sleeve 19 is slidably sleeved on the fixed rod 17. The movable sleeve 19 movably penetrates the upper wall of the driving groove 16. The push-pull plate 20 is fixedly arranged on the upper end of the movable sleeve 19. The lower connecting plate 7 of one group of connecting components 5 is fixedly arranged on the fixed ring 18, and the upper connecting plate 6 of the connecting component 5 is fixedly arranged on the lower end of the movable sleeve 19.

[0034] In this embodiment, by pressing the push-pull plate 20, the movable sleeve 19 can be driven to slide down along the fixed rod 17. During the sliding process of the movable sleeve 19, the upper connecting plate 6 is driven to move downward to drive the X-shaped member 8, and the first upper end 9 and the second upper end 10 on the X-shaped member 8 move downward, and the distance between them increases. The fixing ring 18 keeps the position of the lower connecting plate 7 unchanged, so the height of the first lower end 11 and the second lower end 12 on the X-shaped member 8 remains unchanged, but the distance between them increases, and then the items to be stored are placed between the multiple groups of connecting components 5; then, by lifting the push-pull plate 20, the movable sleeve 19 can be driven to rise along the fixed rod 17, and the sliding sleeve moves the upper connecting plate 6 upward to drive the X-shaped member 8, and the first upper end 9 and the second upper end 10 on the X-shaped member 8 move upward, and the distance between them decreases. At the same time, the fixing ring 18 keeps the position of the lower connecting plate 7 unchanged, and when the height of the first lower end 11 and the second lower end 12 remains unchanged, the distance between them is also reduced accordingly, thereby fixing the items between the multiple groups of connecting components 5.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the movable sleeve 19 is provided with a threaded outer thread 22 , and a positioning nut 23 is threadedly connected to the threaded outer thread 22 , and the positioning nut 23 is arranged above the mounting plate 2 .

[0036] In this embodiment, the positioning nut 23 is slid on the threaded external thread 22 and then positioned by the upper wall of the mounting plate 2, thereby adjusting the position of the movable sleeve 19 on the fixed rod 17, so that the amplitude of the movable sleeve 19 driving the upper connecting plate 6 is controllable, and then the distance between the multiple groups of connecting components 5 is adjusted to fix and store items of different sizes.

[0037] In another embodiment, the outer wall of the box body 1 is provided with an external space for accommodating the storage assembly 3, and the mounting plate 2 is hingedly provided on one side of the external space. When the storage assembly 3 needs to be used outside the box body 1, the mounting plate 2 can be rotated to expose the driving assembly 4 and the storage assembly 3 from the external space of the outer wall of the box body 1, thereby storing items that are inconvenient to be loaded into the box body 1.

[0038] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0039] Although embodiments have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit thereof, and the scope of the embodiments is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0040] The above description of the implementation mode is not restrictive, and the drawings show only one of the implementation modes, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in the field are inspired by it and design structural methods and embodiments similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the invention, they should all fall within the scope of protection.
