Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities, specifically to a handheld device. Background Technology

[0002] Handbags, as a common daily necessity, are widely used in various scenarios such as travel, shopping, and work. Their basic function is to provide a convenient container for carrying items. The handle, as a key component of a handbag, directly affects the user's comfort and convenience when carrying it, as well as the bag's storage efficiency when not in use.

[0003] In existing handbag designs, the structure and function of the handles are relatively simple. Most handbags use a fixed design for the handles, meaning they always maintain a fixed shape and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to usage needs. This fixed handle presents many inconveniences in actual use. For example, when a user needs to lift the handbag, if the handle is bent or loose, the user needs to manually straighten it to a comfortable lifting position, which is quite cumbersome. Furthermore, when the handbag is not in use for storage, the fixed handle may take up extra space, affecting the overall storage efficiency of the handbag, especially when it needs to be placed in a confined space or stacked.

[0004] To improve the user experience of the handles, some handbags feature detachable handles. However, while this design solves the problem of handle adjustment to some extent, it increases the structural complexity and cost of use. Users need to frequently remove and install the handles, which is not only inconvenient but also prone to damaging the handles or the handbag itself, reducing the product's lifespan.

[0005] In addition, some handbags attempt to adjust the handle to some extent by setting a simple connection structure between the handle and the bag body. However, these structures often lack stability and reliability, and cannot ensure that the handle remains stable in the required state. They are prone to shaking or unexpected deformation, which affects the overall performance of the handbag.

[0006] Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN208259238U discloses a handbag, including: a handbag body having a front cover and a back cover, and a connecting surface connecting the front cover and the back cover to form a storage space; a front handle located on the upper edge of the front cover; a back handle located on the upper edge of the back cover; and a shoulder strap with its two ends connected to the handbag body. The front cover, back cover, connecting surface, front handle, back handle, and shoulder strap are all made of the same woven material made of polyester filaments with polyethylene terephthalate as the material. Although it is cut-resistant and fire-resistant, its handles cannot return to a standing position when bent, making it inconvenient for users to carry.

[0007] In conclusion, existing handbags have many shortcomings in handle design, failing to meet users' needs for ease of use and efficient storage. Therefore, developing a handbag that can easily switch between handle positions while ensuring structural stability and reliability is of significant practical importance. Utility Model Content

[0008] The present invention aims to solve the problems existing in the current handbags, and to solve the problem that the handles of the handbags are inconvenient to lift and store.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0010] A handbag includes a handbag body and a handle mounted on the handbag body, the handle having a standing state and a bent state; it also includes:

[0011] An elastic element configured to drive the handle to remain in an upright or bent state is provided, the elastic element being fixedly attached to the bag body and fixedly connected to the handle;

[0012] The handle can switch between a standing state and a bent state via the elastic element, making it easy to lift or store.

[0013] Furthermore, the elastic element is configured as a spring steel sheet. This type of elastic element has a simple structure, low cost, is easy to process and install, and is conducive to the market promotion of the product.

[0014] Furthermore, the thickness of the spring steel sheet is configured to be 1-5mm.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a connecting member configured to connect the bag body and the handle. The connecting member acts as a bridge between the bag body, the elastic member, and the handle, ensuring stable connection and coordinated operation between the components. The connecting member is configured to be fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the bag body, and from the inside out, the connecting member consists of an installation layer, a connecting layer, and a protective layer.

[0016] Furthermore, the mounting layer is configured to be fixedly attached to the outer peripheral surface of the bag body, and both the connecting layer and the protective layer are configured to be fixedly attached to the mounting layer.

[0017] Furthermore, a storage cavity suitable for placing the elastic component is provided between the mounting layer and the connecting layer. The storage cavity provides a dedicated installation space for the elastic component, enabling the elastic component to be stably installed inside the connecting component, preventing the elastic component from shifting or loosening during operation, and ensuring the reliability of the handle's automatic reset function.

[0018] Furthermore, the mounting layer is configured to be made of a wear-resistant material and is fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the bag body, providing a stable mounting base for the entire connecting component. The choice of a wear-resistant material extends the service life of the mounting layer, reduces wear caused by frequent use, and adapts to the mounting needs of bag bodies of different shapes, enhancing the product's versatility.

[0019] Furthermore, the connecting layer is configured to be fixedly connected to the handle, and the connecting layer serves to connect the handle and the mounting layer.

[0020] Furthermore, the protective layer is configured to cover the elastic member and the connecting layer to protect them from damage. The main function of the protective layer is to protect the elastic member and the connecting layer from damage and prevent external impacts, friction, and other factors from damaging the internal structure. Furthermore, the protective layer is made of an elastic material. This elastic material not only provides good protection but also reduces friction and wear between components through elastic cushioning, while absorbing the impact force during lifting and improving handling comfort.

[0021] Furthermore, the protective layer is configured to be made of an elastic material.

[0022] Due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] This invention utilizes an elastic element, preferably a spring steel sheet, to maintain the handle in an upright or bent state, taking advantage of its excellent elasticity. When the user needs to lift the handbag, the elastic element keeps the handle upright, eliminating the need for manual adjustment when the handle is bent or loose, as with traditional fixed handles. This greatly simplifies the process, saves time and effort, and improves the convenience and comfort of carrying the bag. When storing the handbag, the user simply bends the handle, and the elastic element keeps it stably bent, effectively reducing the space occupied by the handle and avoiding the extra space occupied by fixed handles. This is especially convenient for placing handbags in small spaces or stacking them, improving the overall storage efficiency of the handbag.

[0024] The design of the connecting component is crucial to the structural stability of this invention. The connecting component consists of an installation layer, a connecting layer, and a protective layer, arranged sequentially. The installation layer is fixedly attached to the outer circumference of the bag body, providing a stable foundation for the entire connection structure. The installation layer is made of wear-resistant material, resisting friction and wear during daily use, extending its service life, and ensuring the stability of the connection between the connecting component and the bag body. One end of the connecting layer is fixedly connected to the handle, and the other end is firmly connected to the installation layer, playing a key role in transmitting the force of the handle. This connection method makes the connection between the handle and the bag body more robust, reducing the possibility of the handle shaking or accidental deformation during use, and ensuring the overall performance of the handbag.

[0025] The protective layer covers the elastic components and connecting layer, providing comprehensive protection for the internal parts. It not only prevents damage to the elastic components and connecting layer from external impacts and friction, but the protective layer, made of elastic material, also has an elastic cushioning function, reducing friction and wear between components and absorbing the impact force during lifting, further improving the comfort of the handle and enhancing the durability of the entire handbag structure, extending the product's lifespan. The storage cavity between the mounting layer and the connecting layer provides dedicated installation space for the elastic components, allowing them to be securely installed inside the connecting components. This prevents the elastic components from shifting or loosening during operation, ensuring the reliability of the handle's automatic reset function and further improving the stability of the handbag structure.

[0038] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] The handbag in this embodiment mainly consists of a bag body 1, a handle 2, an elastic element 4, and a connecting member 3. The bag body 1 is made of high-quality leather, which has a good texture and durability, and can meet the needs of daily use. The handle 2 is used for users to carry the bag and can flexibly switch between a standing position and a bent position. The elastic element 4 provides driving force for the switching of the handle 2's position, and the connecting member 3 realizes a stable connection between the bag body 1, the elastic element 4, and the handle 2.

[0041] The dimensions of the main body of the handbag 1 are optimized based on common handbag specifications. The main body of the handbag 1 is made of high-quality leather, and the surface of the leather has been specially treated to be waterproof and wear-resistant, which can resist friction and wear in daily use and extend the service life of the main body of the handbag 1.

[0042] Handle 2 is made of leather that matches the bag body 1, ensuring consistency and aesthetics in the overall appearance. Handle 2 has two mounting ends, which are connected to the bag body 1 via connecting member 3. Handle 2 can easily switch between a standing and bent state thanks to the elastic member 4. When in the standing state, handle 2 is vertically fixed to the bag body 1, allowing the user to comfortably grip and carry the bag. When storage is required, the user can bend handle 2, making it curved or flush with the bag body 1, thereby reducing space occupation and facilitating storage.

[0043] In this embodiment, the elastic element 4 is made of spring steel sheet with a thickness of 1-5mm. The appropriate thickness can be selected based on the size of the handbag to avoid it being too thick and increasing the weight of the handbag, or too thin and causing breakage. The spring steel sheet has good elasticity and toughness, maintaining stable performance during repeated bending and recovery, and is not prone to fatigue fracture. One end of the spring steel sheet is fixed to the handbag body 1, and the other end is fixedly connected to the handle 2. When the handle 2 is in a standing position, the spring steel sheet is in a naturally extended state, providing a certain support force to ensure that the handle 2 can stably maintain its standing position. When the user bends the handle 2, the spring steel sheet bends and deforms, maintaining its bent state. When the user needs to lift the handle 2, applying a certain external force, such as gently pulling the handle 2, will cause it to return to its standing position. The spring steel sheet can drive the handle 2 to maintain its standing position, improving ease of use.

[0044] The connecting member 3 is fixed to the outer circumferential surface of the bag body 1, and consists of an installation layer 31, a connecting layer 32 and a protective layer 33 from the inside to the outside.

[0045] The mounting layer 31 is made of a wear-resistant material. The mounting layer 31 is securely fixed to the outer circumference of the bag body 1 by sewing, providing a stable mounting base for the entire connecting component 3. In this embodiment, the mounting layer 31 is made of TPU fabric. TPU fabric has excellent wear resistance, resisting friction and wear during daily use, extending the service life of the mounting layer 31, and ensuring the stability of the connection between the connecting component 3 and the bag body 1. At the same time, TPU fabric also has good flexibility, adapting to the deformation of the surface of the bag body 1, further enhancing the reliability of the connection.

[0046] The connecting layer 32 is made of nylon fabric. Nylon fabric has good strength and toughness, effectively transmitting the force of the handle 2, making the connection between the handle 2 and the bag body 1 more secure, and reducing the possibility of the handle 2 shaking or accidentally deforming during use. One end of the connecting layer 32 is fixedly connected to the handle 2 by sewing, and the other end is tightly connected to the mounting layer 31 by sewing. High-strength thread is used in the sewing process to ensure the connection strength between the connecting layer 32, the handle 2, and the mounting layer 31, enabling it to withstand greater tensile force and meet the needs of daily use.

[0047] The protective layer 33 is made of TPU fabric. TPU fabric has excellent elasticity and softness, which not only prevents damage to the elastic component 4 and connecting layer 32 from external impacts and friction, but also provides elastic cushioning, reducing friction and wear between components and absorbing the impact force during handling, further improving the comfort of the handle 2. The protective layer 33 covers the outside of the elastic component 4 and connecting layer 32, providing comprehensive protection for the internal components. The protective layer 33 provides sufficient protection without adding excessive weight or volume, thus avoiding negatively impacting the overall user experience of the handbag.

[0048] A storage cavity 321 is provided between the mounting layer 31 and the connecting layer 32. The size of the storage cavity 321 is designed according to the size of the spring steel sheet to accommodate it. One end of the spring steel sheet is placed inside the storage cavity 321, and the other end extends outside the storage cavity 321 and connects to the connecting layer 32. The storage cavity 321 provides a dedicated installation space for the spring steel sheet, allowing it to be securely installed inside the connecting member 3. This prevents the spring steel sheet from shifting or loosening during operation, ensuring the reliability of the automatic reset function of the handle 2 and further improving the stability of the handbag structure.

[0049] When the user needs to lift the handbag, the elastic element 4 (spring steel sheet) is in a naturally extended state, causing the handle 2 to automatically maintain an upright position. At this time, the handle 2 is vertically fixed to the handbag body 1, and the user can easily grip the handle 2 to lift the handbag. During the lifting process, the various layers of the connecting component 3 work together. The mounting layer 31 is firmly connected to the handbag body 1, ensuring that the connecting component 3 will not separate from the handbag body 1; the connecting layer 32 effectively transmits the force of the handle 2, making the connection between the handle 2 and the handbag body 1 more secure and reducing the shaking of the handle 2; the protective layer 33 reduces the impact force and friction and wear between parts during lifting, ensuring the comfort of lifting and the stability of the handbag.

[0050] When the user finishes using the bag and needs to store it, they simply bend the handle 2 towards the bag body 1. At this point, the spring steel sheet bends and deforms, generating elastic potential energy. Once the handle 2 is bent to fit snugly against the bag body 1, the spring steel sheet keeps the handle 2 stably in the bent state, effectively reducing the space occupied by the handle 2 and making it convenient for the user to place the bag in confined spaces or stack it. When the user needs to use the bag again, applying external force to the handle 2 returns it to its upright position. The spring steel sheet keeps the handle 2 upright, greatly simplifying the operation process and improving ease of use.

[0051] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
