For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0020] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides an embodiment of a side-panel folding suitcase, comprising a suitcase body 1, a fixed side panel 2 being fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the suitcase body 1 on the side away from the zipper, a folding seat panel 4 being rotatably connected to the center position of the outer surface of the fixed side panel 2 via two primary rotating seats 3, so that the folding seat panel 4 can be rotated along the primary rotating seats 3, thereby being convenient for unfolding and folding;

[0021] The folding seat plate 4 is rotatably connected to the folding backrest 6 at one end away from the fixed side plate 2 through two secondary rotating seats 5, and the outer surface of the bottom end of the fixed side plate 2 is rotatably mounted with a folding footrest 8 through two tertiary rotating seats 7;

[0022] When the folding backrest 6 is unfolded, it is perpendicular to the folding seat plate 4, and the bottom end of the folding backrest 6 is just located on the folding footrest 8. Figure 1 As shown;

[0023] This structural design can form a two-layer load-bearing plate structure when the folding seat plate 4, folding backrest 6 and folding footrest 8 of the utility model are unfolded. Figure 1 As shown, the foldable seat plate 4 is provided so that a person can sit on the foldable seat plate 4, thereby forming a bench structure at the side of the suitcase, which can be unfolded and used when waiting for a flight or a train at an airport or a high-speed rail station. By coordinating with the mobility of the suitcase, the movable bench structure design effectively improves the versatility of the suitcase, avoids the situation of standing for a long time when there is no seat, and saves manpower;

[0024] At the same time, the upper and lower layers of the folding seat plate 4 and the folding footrest 8 can also be used as a storage rack, on which some luggage, objects, etc. can be placed, which plays a certain role in expanding storage and has multiple uses.

[0025] When the side panel structure is not in use, it can be easily folded and stored. When folding, first rotate the folding seat panel 4 along the primary rotating seat 3. At this time, the folding seat panel 4 is vertically fitted with the fixed side panel, and the folding backrest 6 is rotated around the secondary rotating seat 5. At this time, the folding backrest 6 is vertically fitted with the folding seat panel 4;

[0026] Finally, the folding footrest 8 is rotated upward with the three-stage rotating seat 7 as the center. At this time, the folding footrest 8 is vertically fitted with the fixed side plate 2, and when the folding footrest 8 is folded, it is placed just below the folding seat plate 4;

[0027] In this way, by folding the above-mentioned plate body, the space occupancy rate of the side structure of the suitcase can be effectively reduced, and folding and storage can be conveniently performed. It has good usage diversity and folding storage effect, effectively improving the use function of the existing suitcase, meeting the diverse usage characteristics of the suitcase when traveling, and has good multi-functional use effect.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the bottom support and mobility of the folding foot pedal 8, movable wheels 9 are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower surface of the folding foot pedal 8. The set movable wheels 9 can ensure the normal mobility of the folding foot pedal 8. At the same time, the movable wheels 9 can also play the role of bottom support, have good support mobility, and are easy to use.

[0029] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the normal movement of the suitcase body 1, the four corners of the bottom end of the suitcase body 1 are fixedly installed with case moving wheels;

[0030] The bottoms of the moving wheels of the box body and the moving wheels 9 of the folding foot pedal 8 are in the same horizontal plane, so as to avoid the uneven "three legs" situation when the wheel body touches the ground.

[0031] Working principle: When the folding seat plate 4, folding backrest 6 and folding footrest 8 of the utility model are unfolded, they can form a load-bearing plate structure with two layers. Figure 1 As shown, the foldable seat plate 4 is provided so that a person can sit on the foldable seat plate 4, thereby forming a bench structure at the side of the suitcase, which can be unfolded and used when waiting for a flight or a train at an airport or a high-speed rail station. By coordinating with the mobility of the suitcase, the movable bench structure design effectively improves the versatility of the suitcase, avoids the situation of standing for a long time when there is no seat, and saves manpower;

[0032] At the same time, the upper and lower layers of the folding seat plate 4 and the folding footrest 8 can also be used as a storage rack, on which some luggage, objects, etc. can be placed, which plays a certain role in expanding storage and has multiple uses.

[0033] When the side panel structure is not in use, it can be easily folded and stored. When folding, first rotate the folding seat panel 4 along the primary rotating seat 3. At this time, the folding seat panel 4 is vertically fitted with the fixed side panel, and the folding backrest 6 is rotated around the secondary rotating seat 5. At this time, the folding backrest 6 is vertically fitted with the folding seat panel 4;

[0034] Finally, the folding footboard 8 is rotated upward with the third rotating seat 7 as the center, at this time, the folding footboard 8 is vertically attached to the fixed side plate 2, and the folding footboard 8 is just placed below the folding seat plate 4 when folding;

[0035] Therefore, through folding the above-mentioned plate body, the space occupancy of the side structure of the luggage case can be effectively reduced, folding storage is facilitated, better use diversity and folding storage effect are achieved, the use function of the existing luggage case is effectively improved, the diverse use characteristics of the luggage case during travel are met, better multifunctional use effect is achieved, the overall structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and the utility model is suitable for widely used.

[0036] It is apparent for those skilled in the art that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above-mentioned exemplary embodiments, and the utility model can be realized in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive, the scope of the utility model is defined by the appended claims instead of the above-mentioned description, and therefore all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be included in the utility model. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the involved claims.
