[0002] With the development of the times and the continuous change and improvement of consumers' aesthetic taste, more and more personalized travel products have emerged. Among them, handheld mini portable storage bags have been very popular among consumers in recent years. However, in the existing handheld mini bags, due to their small size and small internal space, the locks used for bags generally adopt an external structure. However, in the actual use of consumers, although the external lock structure is easy to operate, because the lock structure protrudes from the outer side of the frame at the edge of the box shell opening, on the one hand, it is easy to affect the overall aesthetics of the bag. On the other hand, because the lock structure is exposed, it will inevitably cause friction or bumps with the consumer's palm or fingers during daily use, which is easy to bring consumers a bad use experience, so it is difficult to improve the market competitiveness of such bag products. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a double-leaf built-in lock structure for luggage. The lock structure is hidden inside the frame of the luggage, which can effectively improve the overall aesthetics of the luggage and the consumer's experience.

Among them, the first frame and the second frame can be meshed with each other to form a closed frame structure, and the first frame and the second frame can be selected according to the market positioning or functional requirements of the luggage product. The first frame and the second frame are required to have a groove width that can accommodate the material thickness of the corresponding lock part and the box shell at the same time, so that the first lock part and the second lock part can be completely built into the corresponding frame grooves to form a split-type built-in lock structure, thereby achieving a greater degree of maintaining the overall aesthetics of the luggage, and not affecting the normal locking and unlocking functions of the luggage.

[0005] The first lock part is an integrated structure, including a first lock part body, a lock hook and a first mounting part. The first mounting parts are respectively provided at both ends of the first lock part body. The first mounting parts are locked and connected with the inner side of the first frame by screws. The first lock part body is provided with a lock hook on the side facing the second lock part. In this structure, the first lock part body and the first mounting part serve as the base of the first lock part, and are hidden in the first frame after installation. The lock hook is used to cooperate with the second lock part to realize the function of locking or unlocking, and the lock hook is exposed outside the first frame in the direction toward the second frame.

[0006] The second lock part includes a second lock part body, a slider, a spring and a push button. The second lock part body has a cavity with an opening on one side. The slider is installed in the cavity. The push button is closely arranged on the outer side of the second frame. The push button passes through the second frame and is fixedly connected to the slider. A spring is arranged on one side of the slider. A lock hole is arranged on the side of the second lock part body facing the first lock part. In this structure, the second lock part body serves as the mounting base of the entire second lock part.
