[0040] The upper shell 10 and the lower shell 20 each have a first shell 11 and a second shell 12 that are separately configured. By adopting the method that the upper shell 10 and the lower shell 20 each have a first shell 11 and a second shell 12 that are separately configured, the upper shell 10 and the lower shell 20 have the same strength, thereby making the overall strength of the suitcase better.
[0041] The outer surface of the upper shell 10 is provided with anti-collision corner protectors 16 at the four corners at the top. The anti-collision corner protectors 16 are made of aluminum or aluminum alloy. By setting the anti-collision corner protectors 16, the four corners of the upper shell 10 can be effectively protected, and the upper shell 10 can be prevented from being damaged in the event of an impact.
[0042] The upper shell 10 has a U-shaped metal part 13 connected to a handle 17. The lower shell 20 is provided with a pull rod 21. The four corners of the lower shell 20 are all connected with casters 22. Specifically, the pull rod 21 is installed inside the lower shell 20. The upper shell 10 is provided with a clearance opening 18 for the pull rod 21 to pass through upwards. The casters 22 are silent casters 22.
[0043] The upper shell 10 and the lower shell 20 are connected by a metal frame 30. The metal frame 30 has a separate upper frame 31 and a lower frame 32. The upper frame 31 is connected to the lower edge of the upper shell 10, and the lower frame 32 is connected to the upper edge of the lower shell 20. The upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 are hinged together by two or more hinges 33. The metal frame 30 is made of aluminum or aluminum alloy.
[0044] In summary, this utility model adopts a split design of a first shell 11 and a second shell 12. The first U-shaped portion 111 on the first shell 11 and the second U-shaped portion 121 on the second shell 12 are spliced together by a U-shaped metal part 13 to form an upper shell 10 or a lower shell 20, thereby improving the overall strength of the suitcase and making it less prone to deformation and damage. At the same time, the U-shaped metal part 13 has a metallic texture and plays a good decorative role, making the overall appearance of the suitcase more beautiful.
