[0039] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment provides a novel suitcase, including a suitcase body 100 and an air extraction device 200.

[0040] The box 100 has a cavity containing an airtight bag 110. A connecting pipe 120, communicating with the interior of the airtight bag 110, is located on the outside of the airtight bag 110. An air extraction device 200 is mounted on the box 100, featuring an air inlet 211 and an air outlet 221. A filter 222 is installed at the air outlet 221. The connecting pipe 120 is secured to and communicates with the air inlet 211. By placing the airtight bag 110 within the cavity of the box 100 and connecting it to the air inlet 211 of the air extraction device 200 via the connecting pipe 120, vacuum compression of the items inside the airtight bag 110 can be achieved, effectively saving storage space. The filter 222 at the air outlet 221 filters out fine debris, hair, and other contaminants flowing into the airtight bag 110, preventing them from being directly blown to the outside and reducing subsequent cleaning work. The connecting pipe 120 and the air inlet 211 adopt a snap-fit ​​design, which makes disassembly and assembly more convenient and facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement.

[0041] In one embodiment, the air extraction device 200 includes an air guide shell 210 and a housing 220. The housing 220 is disposed on the inner side wall of the box 100. A mounting groove 223 is provided on the side of the housing 220 facing the airtight bag 110. The air guide shell 210 is fitted into the mounting groove 223. A first air hole 212 communicating with the air outlet 221 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 223. An air extraction pump 230 is provided at the first air hole 212. Furthermore, an air inlet 211 is formed on the side of the air guide shell 210 facing the airtight bag 110. On one side of the bag 110, the air guide shell 210 is also provided with a second air hole 213 that communicates with the air inlet 211. The second air hole 213 is connected to the air outlet of the air pump 230. That is, the air pump 230 draws air from the airtight bag 110 through the first air hole 212 and the air inlet 211 to compress the space of the airtight bag 110. The air guide shell 210 is set for air guidance, which can save installation space and make the air extraction device 200 more compact. In addition, the air guide shell 210 is detachable, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance and replacement.

[0042] To enable the connecting pipe 120 to be snapped into the air inlet 211, a connecting wall 214 is provided on the side of the air guide shell 210 facing the airtight bag 110, surrounding the air inlet 211. The connecting wall 214 is U-shaped, and a slot 215 is provided on the inner side wall of the connecting wall 214 along its contour. The end of the connecting pipe 120 away from the airtight bag 110 extends radially outward to form a protrusion 121, which engages with the slot 215. During installation, the protrusion 121 on the connecting pipe 120 can be snapped downward into the slot 215 by aligning it with the opening of the connecting wall 214. The operation is simple and the structure is stable.

[0043] To ensure the airtightness between the air inlet 211 and the connecting pipe 120, an annular groove 122 is provided at one end of the protrusion 121 facing the air guide shell 210. A sealing ring 123 is provided in the annular groove 122, and the sealing ring 123 abuts against the air guide shell 210 to prevent air leakage at the connection between the air inlet 211 and the connecting pipe 120, which would affect the air extraction efficiency of the air pump 230.

[0044] In one embodiment, a locking member 240 is movably disposed on the air guide shell 210. The locking member 240 is located at the opening of the connecting wall 214 and has a locked position and a released position. When the locking member 240 is in the locked position, it abuts against the protruding buckle 121 to limit the protruding buckle 121 within the slot 215. Furthermore, when the locking member 240 is in the released position, it disengages from the protruding buckle 121, allowing the protruding buckle 121 to disengage from the slot 215. That is, the locking member 240 limits the protruding buckle 121 inserted into the slot 215, ensuring the stability of the connecting pipe 120 connection. The locking member 240 can be configured to move up and down, forward and backward, or left and right.

[0045] In some specific embodiments, the air guide shell 210 is provided with a movable hole 216 communicating with its interior. The movable hole 216 is located at the opening of the connecting wall 214. The locking member 240 is provided at the movable hole 216 and can move along the opening direction of the movable hole 216, that is, move back and forth. When the locking member 240 is in the locked position, part of it extends out of the movable hole 216 to the outside, and the extended part of the locking member 240 limits the protrusion buckle 121. When the locking member 240 is in the released position, it is accommodated in the movable hole 216, that is, the opening of the connecting wall 214 is opened, so that when the connecting pipe 120 is lifted upward, the protrusion buckle 121 can disengage from the slot 215.

[0046] Furthermore, the protruding end of the locking member 240 is provided with an upwardly inclined slope 241. The protruding buckle 121 can press the locking member 240 through the slope 241, so that the locking member 240 is accommodated in the movable hole 216. That is, when installing the connecting pipe 120, by aligning the protruding buckle 121 on the connecting pipe 120 with the opening of the connecting wall 214 and pressing the connecting pipe 120 downward, the protruding buckle 121 presses the locking member 240 through the slope 241, so that the locking member 240 retracts into the movable hole 216, allowing the protruding buckle 121 to be engaged in the slot 215. When disassembling the connecting pipe 120, the connecting pipe 120 can be removed by pressing the locking member 240 to accommodate it in the movable hole 216. The structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0047] In one embodiment, a baffle 242 is also provided on the side wall of the locking member 240. When the locking member 240 is in the locked position, the baffle 242 abuts against the inner side wall of the air guide shell 210, that is, the baffle 242 limits the locking member 240 to ensure the accuracy and stability of the installation of the locking member 240.

[0048] In one embodiment, the air extraction device 200 is also equipped with an elastic element 250, which is disposed inside the air guide shell 210 and is used to drive the locking element 240 to move along the opening direction of the movable hole 216 so that part of the locking element 240 extends out of the movable hole 216. Specifically, the elastic element 250 is a pressure spring, one end of which abuts against the inner wall of the air guide shell 210 and the other end abuts against the locking element 240. When it is necessary to remove the connecting pipe 120, the locking element 240 can be inserted into the movable hole 216 by pressing the protruding end of the locking element 240, so that when the connecting pipe 120 is pushed upward, the connecting pipe 120 can be disengaged from the slot 215. When installing the connecting pipe 120, the protrusion 121 on the connecting pipe 120 presses the locking member 240 through the inclined surface 241, so that the locking member 240 extends into the movable hole 216. When the protrusion 121 is engaged in the slot 215, the pressure spring will drive the locking member 240 to extend out of the movable hole 216, so that the protrusion 121 abuts against the lower end of the locking member 240, thereby limiting the connecting pipe 120.

[0049] In one embodiment, the side walls of the mounting groove 223 adjacent to the first air hole 212 are provided with limiting strips 224 arranged along their length direction. The air guide shell 210 is provided with a snap 217 corresponding to and adapted to the limiting strips 224. The side walls of the mounting groove 223 opposite to the first air hole 212 are hollowed out. When installing the air guide shell 210, by pushing the air guide shell 210 into the mounting groove 223 from the hollowed-out part of the mounting groove 223, the snap 217 on the air guide shell 210 can be locked onto the limiting strips 224. The cooperation between the limiting strips 224 and the snap 217 realizes the precise positioning of the air guide shell 210 and prevents installation deviation.

[0050] Furthermore, a force-applying groove 218 is provided on the side of the air guide shell 210 away from the first air hole 212, which allows fingers to be inserted. That is, by inserting fingers into the force-applying groove 218 to apply force, the air guide shell 210 can be pulled or pushed to detach from or be inserted into the mounting groove 223.

[0051] Furthermore, an elastic wall 2181 is formed on the side wall opposite to the air guide shell 210, which can be moved towards the airtight bag 110. A buckle 2182 is provided on the side of the elastic wall 2181 away from the airtight bag 110, and a limiting groove 225 corresponding to the buckle 2182 is provided in the mounting groove 223, so that the buckle 2182 can be locked in the limiting groove 225. The elastic wall 2181 allows users to quickly disassemble the air guide shell 210 by moving it with their fingers without tools. Specifically, the force application groove 218 has two notches spaced vertically, which penetrate the inner bottom wall of the force application groove 218 and the side wall opposite to the air guide shell 210, thereby forming an elastic wall 2181 between the two notches. The side wall of the elastic wall 2181 opposite to the air guide shell 210 is provided with a deflecting wall extending away from the air guide shell 210. By deflecting the deflecting wall, the elastic wall 2181 can be deformed, causing the buckle 2182 to disengage from the limiting groove 225.

[0052] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
