Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of luggage, in particular to a reinforcing frame and a suitcase. Background Art

[0002] Suitcases are essential items for people to travel. At present, suitcases on the market can generally be divided into two categories: zipper suitcases and hard-frame suitcases. A zipper suitcase means that zippers are provided at the edges of the front and rear shells of the suitcase, and then the front and rear shells are connected by the zippers; a hard-frame suitcase means that a circle of hard frames made of metal or non-metal materials are provided at the edges of the front and rear shells of the suitcase, and then the front and rear shells are snap-connected through the hard frames. There is a large gap in the manufacturing processes between hard-frame suitcases and zipper suitcases. In actual processing, zipper suitcases more often adopt tailoring techniques, while hard-frame suitcases, due to their high hardness, usually adopt riveting. Therefore, hard-frame suitcases far exceed zipper suitcases in terms of quality and impact resistance. However, precisely because hard-frame suitcases are fixed by riveting, the processing difficulty is high and the process is relatively complex. Therefore, the cost of hard-frame suitcases is usually much higher than that of zipper suitcases.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , a reinforcing frame 100 of a preferred embodiment of this utility model, includes a box shell 10 and a reinforcing member 20. The reinforcing member 20 is arranged at the edge of the box shell 10, and further includes a connecting member 30 connecting the box shell 10 and the reinforcing member 20. The connecting member 30 is fixedly connected to one side of the box shell 10. The reinforcing member 20 is provided with a receiving groove 21 for receiving the connecting member 30 and the box shell 10. The connecting member 30 includes a base body 31 connected to the box shell 10 and a first fin 32 connected to the side of the base body 31 away from the box shell 10. One end of the first fin 32 is connected to the base body 31, and the other end extends obliquely away from the bottom of the receiving groove 21. The first fin 32 abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove 21.

[0033] For the reinforcing frame 100 of this application, by providing the receiving groove 21 on the reinforcing member 20 and arranging the first fin 32 on the connecting member 30, since the extending direction of the first fin 32 is just opposite to the depth direction of the receiving groove 21, the box shell 10 and the connecting member 30 can be easily inserted into the receiving groove 21, but it is very difficult for the connecting member 30 and the box shell 10 to be pulled out from the receiving groove 21. The structure of the first fin 32 can play a role in preventing detachment, which can improve the bonding strength between the box shell 10 and the reinforcing member 20. Moreover, during assembly, first fix the connecting member 30 at the edge of the box shell 10, and then insert the box shell 10 and the connecting member 30 into the receiving groove 21, which simplifies the production and assembly.

[0034] Furthermore, the inner wall of the receiving groove 21 is provided with a first clamping groove 22 corresponding to the first fin 32, and a clamping portion 221 is arranged at one end of the first clamping groove 22 away from the bottom of the receiving groove 21.
