[0038] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiments provided by this utility model are as follows:
[0040] Example 1: An automatically resetting luggage handle includes a first case 1. The first case 1 has a fixing strap 101 inside, which limits and fixes the items inside the first case 1. The fixing strap 101 is precisely designed to effectively and firmly secure the items inside the case, preventing slippage, rolling, or collisions during luggage movement or tilting. This design is particularly important for protecting fragile, easily damaged, or irregularly shaped items, providing necessary support and stability. By rationally arranging the fixing straps 101, users can flexibly adjust them according to the size and shape of the items, maximizing the use of the luggage's internal space, reducing space waste, and ensuring even distribution of items, thereby further improving the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the luggage. A pulley 102 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the first case 1. The pulley 102 design allows the case to easily slide on the ground, greatly reducing the need for manual labor, whether for horizontal movement or short-distance dragging. Users do not need to lift or carry the case laboriously; a gentle push or pull is all it takes to move it easily, significantly improving ease of use. The pulley 102 is made of wear-resistant material and has a small contact area, effectively reducing friction between the box and the ground, extending the service life of the box, and reducing noise and vibration caused by friction. A second box 3 is mounted on the first box 1 via a hinge. A latch 302 is located at the end of the second box 3 opposite to the first box 1. After the first box 1 and the second box 3 are closed, they are locked in place by the latch 302. The latch 302 design ensures a secure connection between the first box 1 and the second box 3 after closure, effectively preventing accidental opening of the box and loss of items. This fixing method provides additional security, especially during travel or transportation, ensuring the safety and integrity of the items inside the box. The latch 302 tightly connects the two boxes, forming a more stable structure, reducing swaying and tilting during movement or placement, and improving overall stability. A handle 301 is installed at the top of the second box 3, and a pull rod 2 is installed on the outer surface of the first box 1.
[0041] Example 2: To facilitate adjustment of the preset height of the pull rod 2, for example, as follows: Figures 1 to 4As shown, the present invention further includes: a base plate 107 inside the first housing 1; a pull rod 2 located between the base plate 107 and the first housing 1; a second sleeve 203 on the pull rod 2; a protective cover 105 at the top of the first housing 1; a limiting sleeve 106 on the protective cover 105; and the second sleeve 203 guided and installed inside the first housing 1 by the limiting sleeve 106. By setting the protective cover 105 at the top of the first housing 1, the direct influence of the external environment on the interior of the housing, such as rainwater and dust, can be effectively isolated. The design of the limiting sleeve 106 enables the second sleeve 203 to be precisely positioned during installation, avoiding structural loosening or damage due to improper installation. This design enhances the overall stability of the housing, making it more robust and durable when subjected to external forces. The limiting sleeve 106 not only serves a positioning function but also acts as a guide device for the second sleeve 203, simplifying the installation process, improving installation convenience and efficiency, and reducing installation costs. The first sleeve 202 is inserted into the second sleeve 203. Adjusting the height of the first sleeve 202 adjusts the preset height of the pull rod 2. A rod 201 is inserted into the first sleeve 202. When the user releases the pull rod 2, the rod 201 automatically retracts into the first sleeve 202 under gravity, thus achieving an automatic reset effect. The back of the first housing 1... A nut seat 103 is installed on the first housing 1, and a locking pin 104 is installed on the first housing 1 via the nut seat 103. The locking pin 104 passes through the second sleeve 203 and contacts the first sleeve 202. The position of the locking pin 104 corresponds to the position of the first sleeve 202. The locking pin 104 and the base plate 107 cooperate to lock and fix the first sleeve 202 after the height is adjusted. The precise correspondence between the locking pin 104 and the first sleeve 202 ensures that the first sleeve 202 is firmly locked in the desired position after the height of the pull rod 2 is adjusted. This design prevents the pull rod 2 from accidentally sliding or adjusting due to external forces during use, maintaining the stability of height adjustment. The cooperation between the locking pin 104 and the base plate 107 provides additional support and fixing force for the first sleeve 202, enhancing the overall structural strength of the luggage pull rod 2 and improving the durability and load-bearing capacity of the luggage.
[0042] Working principle:
[0043] The pull rod 2 mainly consists of a rod body 201, a first sleeve 202, and a second sleeve 203, which are connected by a plug-in connection, allowing them to slide against each other. The first sleeve 202 is plugged into the second sleeve 203, while the rod body 201 is plugged into the first sleeve 202.
[0044] Users can adjust the overall height of the pull rod 2 by pulling or pushing the first sleeve 202 to slide it within the second sleeve 203. When the height is adjusted to a suitable level, the user can lock the first sleeve 202 in its current position within the second sleeve 203 using a locking mechanism (such as a locking pin 104) to maintain the stability of the pull rod 2's height.
[0045] The locking pin 104 is mounted on the first housing 1 via the nut seat 103, and its position corresponds to the first sleeve 202. When the user wants to lock the height of the pull rod 2, the locking pin 104 can be operated to make it contact the first sleeve 202 and generate friction or clamping force, thereby preventing the first sleeve 202 from sliding relative to the second sleeve 203.
[0046] The rod 201 automatically retracts into the first sleeve 202 under the action of gravity, which is the core of the automatic reset mechanism. When the user releases the lever 2, the rod 201 will slide down along the inner wall of the first sleeve 202 under the action of gravity until it is completely retracted into the first sleeve 202.
[0047] The fit clearances between the second sleeve 203 and the first sleeve 202, as well as between the rod 201 and the first sleeve 202, have been carefully designed to ensure that the rod 201 can slide smoothly and automatically reset. At the same time, these clearances also ensure that the rod 201 will not accidentally slip out or loosen due to external forces during the use of the lever 2.
[0048] During the automatic reset process, when the user needs to use lever 2 again, simply pull lever 201 upwards. At this time, locking pin 104 remains unlocked until the user adjusts the height and locks it again.
[0049] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
