Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of suitcase technology, specifically a suitcase with positioning and tracking function. Background Technology
[0002] A suitcase, also known as a travel bag or rolling case, is a box used to carry belongings when traveling. It is a type of luggage. However, when carrying a regular suitcase, the user needs to manually drag it. But when the user is carrying items, it is difficult to drag the suitcase placed on the ground. Therefore, to ensure the user's comfort during travel, tracking and monitoring devices are installed on the suitcase. The monitoring device uses a signal tracker to determine the user's position, and uses a camera and sound wave device to monitor the movement path. It also uses a drive mechanism to control the omnidirectional wheels to move. In other words, the suitcase can automatically plan a path according to the user's position and automatically move with the user, improving the user's travel comfort.
[0003] When using a suitcase with tracking functionality, a drive unit needs to be installed at the bottom of the suitcase. The starting device includes a motor and a power supply, which increases the weight of the suitcase. This means that moving the motor and power supply to a high place will increase the physical exertion of the user. At the same time, the motor and power supply are integrated with the suitcase, which means that the tracking device can only drive a single suitcase. When it is necessary to replace suitcases of different sizes and styles, different tracking devices need to be used, resulting in wasted resources and limited effectiveness of the positioning and tracking function. Therefore, we propose a suitcase with positioning and tracking functionality. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing suitcases with location tracking functions, this utility model provides a suitcase with location tracking function. It features a detachable design between the suitcase and the base, meaning that different suitcases can be placed on the top of the base. At the same time, the base monitors the user through a position monitoring device and controls the tracking of the user, which improves the flexibility of use and solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a suitcase with positioning and tracking function, including a base, a suitcase on the upper part of the base, a position monitoring device fixedly connected to the front end of the base, a vertical rod fixedly connected to the upper part of the front end of the base, a slide rail fixedly connected to the inner side of the vertical rod, a slider movably sleeved on the outside of the slide rail, a pressure plate fixedly connected to the upper part of the slider to limit the upper end of the suitcase, and auxiliary support devices for assisting the movement of the suitcase installed on both sides of the base.
[0006] Preferably, the location monitoring device includes a first mounting plate, the upper part of the front end of the first mounting plate is provided with a display screen for observing the device status, and a monitoring device that emits sound waves to detect the user's location is installed at the front end of the first mounting plate.
[0007] Preferably, the auxiliary support device includes a second mounting plate, which is fixedly connected to both sides of the base. A second slider is installed inside the second mounting plate by a spring. An installation shaft is installed inside the second slider. An auxiliary frame is fixedly connected to the front end of the installation shaft. Three sets of auxiliary wheels are fixedly connected at equal intervals to the outside of the auxiliary frame.
[0008] Preferably, the base has an internal mounting hole, and the support leg at the lower end of the suitcase is movably fitted into the mounting hole.
[0009] Preferably, a pull rod for moving the pulling device is installed at the upper end of the vertical rod, and one side of the vertical rod is in contact with one side of the suitcase.
[0010] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the vertical rod, and a tension spring is fixedly connected to the upper part of the connecting plate to pull the slider downward.
[0011] Preferably, the lower end of the base is equipped with drive wheels that control the base to move with the user, and each set of drive wheels is independently equipped with a drive device.
[0012] Compared with existing suitcases with location tracking functions, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0013] 1. This suitcase with positioning and tracking function monitors the user's travel trajectory and location through a location monitoring device, and monitors the front path to control the drive wheels to move forward. At the same time, the auxiliary support device is set on the side of the base, and the auxiliary wheels contact the ground to ensure the stability of the device when moving.
[0014] 2. This suitcase with positioning and tracking function is installed on the upper part of the base. Depending on the size of the suitcase, the pressure plate is loosened. Under the action of the tension spring, the pressure plate moves downward, which means that the pressure plate squeezes and limits the position of the suitcase. This ensures that the suitcase remains stable when squeezed and limited in the upper part of the base. At the same time, depending on the size and shape of the suitcase, it can be driven to move along with it. Attached Figure Description
