Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hard or semi-hard luggage cases, and in particular to an elastic luggage connection structure and a luggage case using the same. Background Art

[0002] Existing suitcases include an upper shell, a lower shell, and a connecting hinge arranged between the upper shell and the lower shell. The length of the existing connecting hinge cannot be changed and is relatively rigid. It generally needs to be sewn between the upper shell and the lower shell. On the one hand, it is inconvenient to install and reduces processing efficiency to a certain extent. On the other hand, when the user is packing, the distance between the upper shell and the lower shell remains unchanged (because the connecting hinge cannot be retracted), which takes up a relatively large space. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the background technology, the present invention provides a luggage elastic connection structure and a luggage case using the same.

[0004] The present invention provides an elastic connection structure for luggage, comprising an elastic deformation portion, a first clamping portion being mounted on a first side of the elastic deformation portion, the first clamping portion having a harder hardness than the elastic deformation portion; and / or:

[0005] A second clamping portion is installed on the second side of the elastic deformation portion, and the hardness of the second clamping portion is greater than the hardness of the elastic deformation portion.

[0006] In actual use, the first clamping part is clamped with the upper shell of the suitcase, and / or the second clamping part is clamped with the lower shell of the suitcase, thereby facilitating the installation of the connecting mechanism. Moreover, since the elastic deformation part can be deformed, the sides of the upper shell and the lower shell can be in contact when the user is packing, thereby reducing the floor space to a certain extent, and the suitcase can still be laid flat and used in a smaller space.

[0007] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the first clamping portion and / or the second clamping portion includes a clamping plate.

[0008] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, a first penetration limiter is provided on an outer sleeve of the elastic deformation portion, the first penetration limiter contacts the first clamping portion so that the first clamping portion and the elastic deformation portion are perpendicular, and the first penetration limiter has a first extension limiter at one end away from the first clamping portion; and / or:

[0009] The elastic deformation portion is covered with a second through-limiting piece, which contacts the second clamping portion so that the second clamping portion is perpendicular to the elastic deformation portion. The second through-limiting piece has a second extending limiting portion at one end away from the second clamping portion.

[0010] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, a first limiting ring is provided on an outer sleeve of one end of the first penetration limiting member away from the first extension limiting portion, and the first limiting ring is in contact with the first clamping portion; and / or:

[0011] A second limiting ring is provided on an outer sleeve of one end of the second penetration limiting member away from the second extension limiting portion, and the second limiting ring is in contact with the second clamping portion.

[0015] The second limiting ring is engaged with the second through-limiting member.

[0016] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the elastic deformation portion is an elastic band.

[0017] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, the elastic band is connected to the first clamping portion and / or the second clamping portion by sewing.

[0018] A luggage case includes an upper shell and a lower shell, wherein the above-mentioned luggage elastic connection structure is further provided between the upper shell and the lower shell, wherein a first mounting through-hole is formed in the upper shell, a first clamping portion passes through the first mounting through-hole, and the first clamping portion has a portion that contacts the inner wall of the upper shell, and / or:

[0019] A second mounting through hole is formed on the lower shell, and the second clamping portion passes through the second mounting through hole and has a portion that contacts the inner wall of the upper shell.

[0020] As a further optimized solution of the present invention, a zipper is provided between the upper shell and the lower shell, the elastic deformation portion is located on the outside of the zipper, and when the zipper is in a pulled state, the elastic deformation portion is in an original length state.

[0021] In the present invention, the proposed elastic connection structure for luggage and the suitcase using the same facilitate the assembly of the suitcase and increase the assembly efficiency. Moreover, by setting the elastic deformation portion, the distance between the upper shell and the lower shell can be changed when the suitcase is in an open state.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar symbols throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0032] like Figure 1-Figure 5 The elastic connection structure of a bag shown in the figure includes an elastic deformation part 1. In this embodiment, the elastic deformation part 1 is an elastic band with a width of 5cm-20cm. A first clamping part 2 is installed on the first side of the elastic deformation part 1. The first clamping part 2 is made of plastic material and has a harder hardness than the elastic deformation part 1.

[0033] A second clamping portion 3 is installed on the second side of the elastic deformation portion 1. The second side is opposite to the first side. The second clamping portion 3 is made of plastic material. The hardness of the second clamping portion 3 is greater than the hardness of the elastic deformation portion 1. The elastic deformation portion 1 is connected to the first clamping portion 2 and the second clamping portion 3 by sewing.

[0034] In actual use, the first clamping part 2 is clamped with the upper shell 9 of the suitcase, and the second clamping part is clamped with the lower shell 10 of the suitcase, which facilitates the installation of the connecting mechanism. Since the elastic deformation part 1 can be deformed, the sides of the upper shell 9 and the lower shell 10 can be in contact when the user is packing, thereby reducing the footprint to a certain extent. The suitcase can still be used in a smaller space. Moreover, if the upper shell 9 or the lower shell 10 of the suitcase is damaged, it is convenient to replace the damaged upper shell 9 or lower shell 10.

[0035] Preferably, the first clamping portion 2 and the second clamping portion 3 both include a clamping plate, the middle portion of which is connected to the elastic deformation portion 1 by sewing. When passing through the through hole on the suitcase, the clamping plate is parallel to the elastic deformation portion 1, and then the clamping plate is adjusted so that the clamping plate is perpendicular to the elastic rod deformation portion to complete the connection between the clamping plate and the suitcase.

[0036] In order to facilitate the installation of the connection structure, preferably, a first penetration limiter 4 is provided on the outer cover of the elastic deformation part 1. The first penetration limiter 4 contacts the first clamping part 2 so that the first clamping part 2 is perpendicular to the elastic deformation part 1. The first penetration limiter 4 has a first extension limiter 40 at one end away from the first clamping part 2. It should be noted that the thickness of the through hole of the first penetration limiter 4 is greater than the thickness of the elastic deformation part 1 and less than the sum of the thicknesses of the elastic rod deformation part and the first clamping part 2. Therefore, after the first clamping part 2 is sewn and installed, the first penetration limiter 4 can be positioned;

[0037] The elastic deformation part 1 is covered with a second through-limiting piece 5, and the second through-limiting piece 5 contacts the second clamping part 3 so that the second clamping part 3 is perpendicular to the elastic deformation part 1. The second through-limiting piece 5 has a second extending limiting part 50 at one end away from the second clamping part 3. It should be noted that the thickness of the through hole of the second through-limiting piece 5 is greater than the thickness of the elastic deformation part 1 and less than the sum of the thicknesses of the elastic rod deformation part and the second clamping part 3, so that the second through-limiting piece 5 can be positioned after the second clamping part 3 is sewn and installed;

[0038] In order to further ensure the stability of the connection between the first penetration limiter 4 and the second penetration limiter 5, preferably, a first limiting ring 6 is provided on the outer cover of the end of the first penetration limiter 4 away from the first extension limiter 40, and the first limiting ring 6 contacts the first clamping portion 2;

[0039] A second limiting ring 7 is provided on the outer surface of the second penetration limiting member 5 at one end away from the second extension limiting portion 50, and the second limiting ring 7 contacts the second clamping portion 3. Preferably, the first limiting ring 6 is clamped with the first penetration limiting member 4, and the second limiting ring 7 is clamped with the second penetration limiting member 5;

[0040] In order to further achieve the stability of the connection between the first through-limiting member 4 and the second through-limiting member 5, preferably, the hardness of the first limiting ring 6 is greater than the hardness of the first through-limiting member 4; the hardness of the second limiting ring 7 is greater than the hardness of the second through-limiting member 5.

[0041] Specifically, the first limiting ring 6 is clamped with the first through-limiting piece 4, and the second limiting ring 7 is clamped with the second through-limiting piece 5. The first through-limiting piece 4 and the second through-limiting piece 5 are both provided with a plurality of clamping holes 8, and the clamping holes 8 have through holes and blind holes. The plurality of clamping holes 8 are circumferentially distributed on the first through-limiting piece 4 and the second through-limiting piece 5. There are clamping parts in the first limiting ring 6 and the second limiting ring 7, and the clamping parts match the clamping holes 8. When passing through the clamping holes 8 of the through holes, the clamping parts contact the elastic deformation part 1 , thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the first limiting ring 6 and the second limiting ring 7; it should be noted that the first limiting ring 6 has a limiting effect on the first through-limiting member 4 while also having a function of clamping the elastic deformation portion 1 inside the first through-limiting member 4, thereby preventing the elastic deformation portion 1 from sliding relative to the first through-limiting member 4 under the action of a small external force. Similarly, the second limiting ring 7 has a limiting effect on the second through-limiting member 5 while being able to clamp the elastic deformation portion 1 inside the second through-limiting member 5.

[0042] like Figure 6-Figure 7 The luggage case shown in the figure includes an upper shell 9 and a lower shell 10. As in the prior art, a zipper (not shown in the figure) is provided between the upper shell 9 and the lower shell 10. Unlike the prior art, the above-mentioned luggage elastic connection structure is also provided between the upper shell 9 and the lower shell 10. A first mounting hole 90 is formed on the upper shell 9. After the first clamping portion 2 passes through the first mounting hole 90, the first clamping portion 2 has a portion that contacts the inner wall of the upper shell 9. A second mounting hole 100 is formed on the lower shell 10. After the second clamping portion 3 passes through the second mounting hole 100, the second clamping portion 3 has a portion that contacts the inner wall of the upper shell 9. The first mounting hole 90 and the second mounting hole 100 are located above or below the zipper.

[0043] Specifically, first, the first penetration limiter 4 and the second penetration limiter 5 are sleeved on the elastic deformation part 1, and then the plastic and plate-shaped first clamping part 2 and the second clamping part 3 are installed by sewing;

[0044] Then adjust the first clamping portion 2 to be parallel to the elastic deformation portion 1 and insert it into the first mounting through hole 90, then pass the first limiting ring 6 through the first clamping portion 2, adjust the first clamping portion 2 to be perpendicular to the elastic deformation portion 1, and pull the elastic adjustment portion toward the outside of the upper shell 9 by external force so that the first limiting ring 6 contacts the inner wall of the upper shell 9, and then, under the action of external force, the first penetration limiting member 4 is clamped with the first mounting through hole 90 and the first penetration limiting member 4 is clamped with the first limiting ring 6, and at the same time, the first extension limiting portion 40 contacts the outer side of the upper shell 9, the first limiting ring 6 has a limiting effect on the first penetration limiting member 4 and has a function of clamping the elastic deformation portion 1 in the first penetration limiting member 4, thereby preventing the elastic deformation portion 1 from sliding relative to the first penetration limiting member 4 under the action of a small external force. Through the above installation steps, the first penetration limiting member 4 can be fixed to the upper shell 9 while preventing the elastic limiting portion 1 from sliding relative to the upper shell 9 under the action of a small force;

[0045] Then adjust the second clamping portion 3 to be parallel to the elastic deformation portion 1 and insert it into the second mounting through hole 100, then pass the second limiting ring 7 through the second clamping portion 3, adjust the second clamping portion 3 to be perpendicular to the elastic deformation portion 1, and pull the elastic adjustment portion toward the outside of the lower shell 10 through external force to make the second limiting ring 7 contact the inner wall of the lower shell 10, and then under the action of external force, the second through-limiting member 5 is clamped with the second mounting through hole 100 and the second through-limiting member 5 is clamped with the second limiting ring 7, and at the same time, the second extended limiting portion 50 is contacted with the outer side of the lower shell 10, the second limiting ring 7 has a limiting effect on the second through-limiting member 5 and has a function of clamping the elastic deformation portion 1 in the second through-limiting member 5, thereby preventing the elastic deformation portion 1 from sliding relative to the second through-limiting member 5 under a smaller external force. Through the above installation steps, the second through-limiting member 5 can be fixed to the upper shell 10 while preventing the elastic limiting portion 1 from sliding relative to the upper shell 10 under a smaller force.

[0046] Preferably, a zipper is provided between the upper shell 9 and the lower shell 10, the elastic deformation portion is located on the outside of the zipper, and when the zipper is in a zipped state, the elastic deformation portion is in an original length state.
