Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of luggage equipment, and in particular, it is a luggage protective cover. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the increase in travel demand, suitcases have become an indispensable luggage tool for daily travel. During transportation, suitcases may face various environmental factors and risks. For example, during handling at airports and train stations, suitcases are easily bumped and scratched by other items, resulting in scratches and damage to the surface, affecting their lifespan and appearance. Furthermore, suitcases may come into contact with dust and stains in public places, further reducing their cleanliness and hygiene.

[0003] Most suitcase covers on the market are designed with a fixed size, which cannot accommodate the size differences of suitcases from different brands and models. Because suitcases come in a variety of sizes and shapes, these single-size covers often cannot perfectly fit the surface, resulting in large gaps between the cover and the suitcase. Due to the size mismatch, the cover cannot fit tightly and is prone to loosening and slipping during transport. This not only reduces the protective effect of the cover, but also requires frequent adjustments during use, increasing the user's difficulty and time cost. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a protective cover for suitcases that can be used in various sizes to meet industrial needs.

[0005] A suitcase cover includes a cover body, an opening on one side of the cover body, a flap movably connected to the cover body facing the opening, a zipper disposed at the opening and the edge of the flap, and a bottom wall unit disposed between the cover body and the flap. The cover body includes a main body and a side wall unit surrounding the edge of the main body. The side wall unit includes a first side wall at the edge of the main body, a second side wall on one side of the first side wall, and a resilient side wall between the first and second side walls. The bottom wall unit includes a bottom wall and four through holes on the bottom wall for inserting casters. The flap has the same outer contour shape as the opening to facilitate closing the opening.

[0006] Furthermore, a protective edging is provided at the edge of each of the through holes.

[0019] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in further detail below. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of this utility model herein is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the first embodiment of the suitcase protective cover provided by this utility model. The suitcase protective cover includes a cover body 10, an opening 20 disposed on one side of the cover body 10, a flap 30 movably connected to the cover body 10 facing the opening, a zipper 40 disposed on the edge of the opening 20 and the flap 30, and a bottom wall unit 50 disposed between the cover body 10 and the flap 30. The suitcase protective cover also includes other functional modules, such as assembly components, etc., which should be known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0021] The cover 10 includes a cover body 11 and a side wall unit 12 surrounding the edge of the cover body 11. The connection structure between the cover body 11 and the side wall unit 12 is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0022] The main body 11 of the cover has the same shape as the side wall of the suitcase so that the cover 10 fits the suitcase. In this embodiment, the outer contour of the main body 11 of the cover is rectangular.

[0023] The sidewall unit 12 includes a first sidewall 121 disposed on the cover body 11, a second sidewall 122 disposed on one side of the first sidewall 121, and an elastic sidewall 123 disposed between the first sidewall 121 and the second sidewall 122.

[0024] The first sidewall 121, the second sidewall 122, and the elastic sidewall 123 are arranged around the three sides of the main body 11 of the cover, forming the opening 20 and a bottom wall notch in the cover 10. The suitcase is placed into the cover 10 through the opening 20 and the bottom wall notch. The sidewall unit 12 is integrally formed with the main body 11 of the cover to improve the structural stability between the sidewall unit 12 and the main body 11 of the cover. The sidewall unit 12 and the main body 11 of the cover form a frame structure, which makes it easy to fit on the outside of the suitcase and achieve protection for the suitcase.

[0025] The first sidewall 121 includes a first sidewall body 1211 and at least one pull rod through hole 1212 provided on the first sidewall body 1211. The pull rod through hole 1212 corresponds to the handle and pull rod of the suitcase, so that the user can pass through the cover 10 to operate the handle and pull rod in the suitcase. The elastic sidewall 123 is made of elastic fabric, so that the elastic sidewall 123 can deform to adjust the distance between the first sidewall 12 and the second sidewall 122. Even if the size of the suitcase and the protective cover are slightly different, the protective cover can fit tightly to the surface of the suitcase, avoiding loosening or gaps caused by improper size.

[0026] The opening 20 is located on one side of the cover 10. The suitcase enters the cover 10 through the opening 20. The opening 20 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The flip cover 30 is used to close the opening 20. The flip cover 30 has the same outer contour as the main body 11 of the cover. The flip cover 30 is connected to the side wall unit 12, so that the flip cover 30 and the side wall unit 12 can be opened and closed. The first side wall 121, the second side wall 122, the main body 11 of the cover, and the flip cover 30 are all made of transparent material, which makes it easy for the user to observe the condition of the suitcase and improves the aesthetics of the protective cover.

[0028] The zipper 40 works by utilizing the interlocking and disengaging of the zipper teeth to achieve connection and separation. Two zipper teeth in the zipper 40 are respectively located on the edge of the flap 30 and the edge of the second sidewall 122 facing the opening 20. A slider is provided between the two zipper teeth; when the slider is pulled, its sliding groove guides the zipper teeth to interlock or disengage. During interlocking, the shape and size design of the zipper teeth allow them to fit together tightly, thus firmly connecting the two sides of the zipper. When separation is required, pulling the slider in the opposite direction causes the zipper teeth to disengage sequentially, separating the two sides of the zipper. The zipper 40 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] The bottom wall unit 50 includes a bottom wall 51 and four through holes 52 disposed on the bottom wall 51 for inserting casters (not shown).

[0030] The bottom wall 51 and the side wall unit 12 are arranged around and fixedly connected to the edge of the cover body 11. The bottom wall 51, the side wall unit 12, and the cover body 11 form a frame structure. In this embodiment, the bottom wall 51 and the side wall unit 12 are integrally formed. The bottom wall 51 is also composed of a first side wall 121, a second side wall 122, and an elastic side wall 123. The through hole 52 is used for the casters of the suitcase to pass through. Each through hole 52 has a protective edging 1 on its edge to prevent damage to the edge of the through hole 52. The connection structure between the through hole 52 and the protective edging 1 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] When the suitcase is placed inside the suitcase cover, the zipper 40 is opened, and the suitcase is tilted through the opening 20. The two casters of the suitcase are inserted into the through holes 52. When the two casters are inserted into the two through holes 52, the two casters of the suitcase are then inserted into the through holes 52, thereby realizing the installation of the suitcase inside the cover 10. The flap 30 is placed over the opening 20, and the zipper 40 closes the flap 30 and the opening 20.

[0032] like Figures 4 to 5 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the second embodiment of the suitcase protective cover provided by this utility model. The suitcase protective cover includes a cover body 60, an opening 70 disposed on one side of the cover body 60, a flap 80 movably connected to the cover body 60 facing the opening, a zipper 90 disposed on the edge of the opening 70 and the flap 80, and a bottom wall unit 100 disposed between the cover body 60 and the flap 80. The cover body 60 in the first embodiment has the same structure as the cover body 60 in the second embodiment, the opening 70 in the first embodiment has the same structure as the opening 70 in the second embodiment, the flap 80 in the first embodiment has the same structure as the flap 80 in the second embodiment, and the zipper 90 in the first embodiment has the same structure, so they will not be described again here. Only the structure of the bottom wall unit 100 is described in detail here. The cover body 60 includes a cover body 61 and a side wall unit 62 surrounding the edge of the cover body 61. The cover body 61 in the second embodiment has the same structure as the cover body 11 in the first embodiment.

[0033] The sidewall unit 62 includes a first sidewall 621 disposed on the main body 61 of the cover, a second sidewall 622 disposed on one side of the first sidewall 621, and an elastic sidewall 623 disposed between the first sidewall 621 and the second sidewall 622. The first sidewall 121, the second sidewall 122, and the elastic sidewall 123 in the first embodiment have the same structure as the first sidewall 621, the second sidewall 622, and the elastic sidewall 623 in the second embodiment. The difference between the sidewall unit 62 in the second embodiment and the sidewall unit 12 in the first embodiment is that the sidewall unit 62 and the bottom wall unit 100 are separately disposed, and the bottom wall unit 100 can move on the flap 80 and the main body 61 of the cover to accommodate the trolley case inside the cover 60.

[0034] The bottom wall unit 100 includes a bottom wall 110 and four through holes 120 disposed on the bottom wall 110 for inserting casters (not shown).

[0035] The bottom wall 110 includes a first bottom wall 111 disposed on one side of the flip cover 80, a second bottom wall 112 disposed on one side of the cover body 61, and two connectors 113 disposed on the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 respectively.

[0036] The first bottom wall 111 and the flip cover 80 are integrally formed, and the second bottom wall 112 and the cover body 61 are integrally formed to ensure the structural stability between the first bottom wall 111 and the flip cover 80, and between the second bottom wall 112 and the cover body 61.

[0037] The four through holes 120 are respectively provided on the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112, and the four casters of the suitcase can pass through the four through holes 120.

[0038] The connector 113 can be either a buckle or Velcro. In this embodiment, the connector 113 is Velcro. The connection structure between the connector 113 and the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 is a prior art. When the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 abut against each other, the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 are connected to each other by Velcro, so that the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 form a whole, and the bottom opening of the cover 60 is closed by the bottom wall unit 100.

[0039] When the suitcase is placed inside the suitcase cover, open the zipper 90 and the bottom wall unit 100, pass the suitcase through the opening 70 and the bottom notch, so that the suitcase is placed inside the cover 60. The flap 80 covers the opening 70, and the zipper 90 closes the flap 80 and the opening 70, bringing the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 of the bottom wall unit 110 together. During the process, the casters of the suitcase are respectively inserted into the through holes 120, so that the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 are attached to the bottom wall of the suitcase, and the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 are connected to each other by Velcro, so that the first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 form a whole. The first bottom wall 111 and the second bottom wall 112 are closed in the bottom notch of the cover 60, thereby realizing that the casters of the suitcase are inside the cover 60.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the suitcase protective cover provided by this utility model has a flap 30 on one side of the cover body 10, which enables the opening and closing of the opening 20 on one side of the cover body 10. This allows the suitcase to be placed through the side wall of the cover body 10, making it convenient for the user to install the protective cover on the suitcase. Furthermore, the side wall unit 12 includes a first side wall 121 disposed on the cover body 11, a second side wall 122 disposed on one side of the first side wall 121, and an elastic side wall 123 disposed between the first side wall 121 and the second side wall 122. The elastic side wall 123 adjusts the distance between the first side wall 121 and the second side wall 122 through its own elasticity, so that the cover body 10 fits snugly against the surface of the suitcase, and can be appropriately stretched and contracted according to the actual size of the suitcase. This suitcase protective cover has a simple structure and is easy to use. Through the elasticity of the cover body 10 itself, it fits tightly against the surface of the suitcase, avoiding looseness or gaps caused by improper size.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements within the spirit of the present utility model are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
