[0022] In related technologies, existing aluminum-framed suitcases generally include a first body, a second body, an aluminum frame strip, and a lid. The aluminum frame strip connects the first and second bodies to secure them. The first body has an opening for taking out and placing items. The lid is movably connected to the first body to open or close the opening. During use, when the aluminum frame strip is subjected to impact, it is prone to deformation, leading to cracks between the first body and the aluminum frame strip, or between the second body and the aluminum frame strip, thus affecting the lifespan of the aluminum-framed suitcase.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 3According to an embodiment of the present invention, an aluminum frame suitcase includes a first body 100, a second body 200, an aluminum frame strip 300, and a buffer member 400. The aluminum frame strip 300 has a first groove 301 and a second groove 302 on both sides in its width direction. The edge of the first body 100 is accommodated in the first groove 301 and fixedly connected to the aluminum frame strip 300. The edge of the second body 200 is accommodated in the second groove 302 and fixedly connected to the aluminum frame strip 300. An mounting groove 303 is provided on the outer periphery of the aluminum frame strip 300, extending circumferentially along the aluminum frame strip 300. The buffer 400 is installed in the mounting groove 303. The buffer 400 is elastic and extends circumferentially along the aluminum frame strip 300. Thus, by installing the buffer 400 on the aluminum frame strip 300, when the aluminum frame strip 300 is impacted, the buffer 400 first contacts the impacting object. The elasticity of the buffer 400 can buffer the impact force generated by the impacting object. The impact force generated by the impacting object is indirectly transmitted to the aluminum frame strip 300 through the buffer 400, which can prevent the aluminum frame strip 300 from being directly impacted, thereby improving the service life of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0024] For example, during the use of the suitcase, because the cushioning element 400 is elastic, when the aluminum frame strip 300 is impacted, the cushioning element 400 first comes into contact with the impacting object. The elasticity of the cushioning element 400 can buffer the impact force generated by the impacting object. The impact force generated by the impacting object is indirectly transmitted to the aluminum frame strip 300 through the cushioning element 400, which can prevent the aluminum frame strip 300 from being directly impacted, so as to avoid the first suitcase body 100 from cracking with the aluminum frame strip or the second suitcase body 200 from cracking with the aluminum frame strip, thereby improving the service life of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0025] In some embodiments of this utility model, the side of the buffer member 400 away from the bottom wall of the mounting groove 303 protrudes from the periphery of the groove opening of the mounting groove 303, which can prevent impacting objects from directly hitting the aluminum frame strip 300, thereby improving the service life of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0026] In some embodiments of this utility model, a limiting structure is provided between the buffer member 400 and the aluminum frame strip 300. The limiting structure is used to restrict the buffer member 400 from exiting the mounting groove 303, which facilitates the assembly of the buffer member 400.

[0027] In some embodiments of this utility model, the limiting structure includes a limiting groove 304 provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 303 and a limiting protrusion 410 provided on the buffer member 400. The limiting protrusion 410 is accommodated in the limiting groove 304 and abuts against the side wall of the limiting groove 304, which can restrict the buffer member 400 from exiting the mounting groove 303 and facilitate the assembly of the buffer member 400.

[0028] For example, the mounting groove 303 passes through both ends of the aluminum frame strip 300. When installing the buffer 400, the buffer 400 can be inserted into the mounting groove 303 from one end of the aluminum frame strip 300, and the limiting protrusion 410 is accommodated in the limiting groove 304. Since the limiting protrusion 410 abuts against the side wall of the limiting groove 304, it can restrict the buffer 400 from moving along the depth direction of the mounting groove 303, thereby restricting the buffer 400 from exiting the mounting groove 303, which facilitates the assembly of the buffer 400.

[0029] As another implementation, the positions of the limiting groove 304 and the limiting protrusion 410 can also be interchanged, that is, the limiting groove 304 is provided on the buffer 400, and the limiting protrusion 410 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 303, without limitation.

[0030] It should be noted that the limiting structure can also be an interference fit between the buffer 400 and the mounting groove 303, or the limiting structure can be that the buffer 400 is glued to the aluminum frame strip 300. There are no restrictions here.

[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, the opposite sidewalls of the limiting groove 304 are respectively provided with limiting groove 304, and the opposite sides of the buffer member 400 are respectively provided with limiting protrusions 410, so that the buffer member 400 is subjected to uniform force and can improve the installation reliability of the buffer member 400.

[0032] For example, a limiting groove 304 is provided on one side of the width direction of the limiting groove 304, and a limiting groove 304 is provided on the other side of the width direction of the limiting groove 304. Limiting protrusions 410 are provided on opposite sides of the width direction of the buffer member 400. The limiting protrusions 410 are accommodated in the corresponding limiting groove 304 and abut against the side wall of the corresponding limiting groove 304, so that the buffer member 400 is subjected to uniform force and can improve the installation reliability of the buffer member 400.

[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, the buffer 400 is a plastic part. The plastic part has good elasticity and low density, which can reduce the overall weight of the aluminum frame suitcase, thereby making it more convenient for users to use.

[0034] It should be noted that the buffer 400 can also be a rubber part, and there is no restriction here.

[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, the aluminum frame strip 300 includes a first connecting strip 310, a second connecting strip 320, and a third connecting strip 330. The first connecting strip 310 and the second connecting strip 320 are arranged side by side at intervals to form a channel. The third connecting strip 330 is connected between the first connecting strip 310 and the second connecting strip 320 to divide the channel into a first groove 301 and a second groove 302. The mounting groove 303 is provided on the side of the first connecting strip 310 away from the second connecting strip 320, which facilitates the manufacturing of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0036] It should be noted that the width of the buffer 400 is greater than half the width of the first connecting strip 310 to ensure that the buffer 400 can play a good buffering role, which will not be elaborated here.

[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, a reinforcing strip 340 is provided on the side of the second connecting strip 320 away from the first connecting strip 310, which can improve the structural strength of the aluminum frame strip 300 and thus enhance the structural stability of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0038] For example, the reinforcing strip 340 is protruding from the first connecting strip 310 to the second connecting strip 320, which can improve the structural strength of the aluminum frame strip 300 and thus enhance the structural stability of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first connecting strip 310, the second connecting strip 320, the third connecting strip 330 and the reinforcing strip 340 are an integral structure, which can reduce the number of molds, thereby reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the molds and thus reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the aluminum frame suitcase.

[0040] For example, the first connecting strip 310, the second connecting strip 320, the third connecting strip 330 and the reinforcing strip 340 can be integrally formed by die casting, which can reduce the number of molds, thereby reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the molds and thus reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the aluminum frame suitcase.

[0041] As another implementation, the first connecting strip 310, the second connecting strip 320, the third connecting strip 330 and the reinforcing strip 340 can also be connected by welding, wherein the welding method includes, but is not limited to, laser welding, ultrasonic welding or resistance welding.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, rounded corner structures 311 are provided on both sides of the width direction of the first connecting strip 310. The rounded corner structures 311 can disperse the impact force suffered by the aluminum frame strip 300, avoid stress concentration, and thus improve the service life of the aluminum frame strip 300.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0044] The present invention has been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
