Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a carry case. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 describes a typical, roughly cubic carry case. In detail, this carry case is a carry bag that can be moved with a sub-bag placed on the top surface while keeping the sub-bag stable, with a simple structure, and allows the user to easily remove the contents of the sub-bag. Conventionally, there has been a demand for a more convenient way to arrange contents in a carry bag. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2020-130873 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Recently, families have come to demand carry cases with a roughly L-shaped side of the storage section. This is because, when a child is an infant, the roughly L-shaped storage section can be used to have the child sit on the storage section. In other words, instead of the sub-bag of Patent Document 1, this is a carry case that allows a child to be carried on the carry case and transported. However, it is difficult to ensure sufficient convenience just by making the side of the storage section of a conventional carry case roughly L-shaped.

[0005] SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT EMBODIMENT An object of the present invention is to provide a carry case in which a child can be placed on the upper surface of the storage section, and which allows for improved convenience in storage. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The carry case of the present invention comprises a storage section having a substantially L-shaped side, a mounting surface that is located at a height lower than the highest position of the storage section, a sub-storage section that is part of the storage section and has at least a portion located above the mounting surface, and a handle on the side of the sub-storage section that can be used to open and close the sub-storage section. Effect of the Invention

[0007] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a carry case in which a child can be placed on the upper surface of the storage section, and which improves the convenience of storage. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Figure 6] 1A and 1B are cross-sectional views showing a modified example of a carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The configurations described below are merely examples for the purpose of explanation, and can be modified as appropriate according to the specifications of the carry case, etc. In the following, the same reference numerals are used to designate corresponding elements in all the drawings, and duplicated explanations will be omitted.

[0010] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention, as viewed from one side. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention, as viewed from the other side. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing the inside of a storage section of a carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a side view of a carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a modified carry case according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0011] First, a description will be given of the carry case 1. As shown in Fig. 1(a), the carry case 1 includes a storage section 10. As shown in Fig. 2, the inside of the storage section 10 forms a first storage space 10a for storing luggage, and a user of the carry case 1 stores luggage in the storage section 10.

[0012] A sub-storage section 11 is provided in a part of the storage section 10. As shown in Figures 5(a) and 5(b), the inside of the sub-storage section 11 forms a second storage space 11a that is separated from the first storage space 10a of the storage section 10 (also see Figure 2). Luggage can also be stored in the second storage space 11a of the sub-storage section 11.

[0013] The side surface (side panel) 11b of the sub-storage section 11 is connected to the storage section 10 at the bottom edge 11b1, and by rotating the side surface 11b relative to the storage section 10 around the bottom edge 11b1 (arrow a shown in Figure 5(b)), the second storage space 11a is exposed to the outside.

[0014] The sub-storage section 11 can be opened and closed by a sub-storage section zipper 12, which is an opening / closing section. The sub-storage section 11 may be opened and closed by means other than a zipper. A handle 13 is provided on the side of the storage section 10 (side surface 11b of the sub-storage section 11). The handle 13 has a convex shape that can be grasped by adults and children, and can be used as an operating section for rotating the side surface 11b.

[0015] The carry case 1 may further include a footrest 20 on each side, a plurality of tires 30 for enabling the carry case 1 to be moved, a main body zipper 40 for enabling the storage section 10 to be opened and closed, and a handle 50 for the user to grasp when moving the carry case 1.

[0016] The storage section 10 of the carry case 1 has a side surface that is approximately L-shaped. The approximately L-shaped shape means that, for example, a child P between 3 and 12 years old can ride in the carry case 1 like a rocking horse instead of a stroller, as shown in Fig. 1(b), and does not necessarily have to be strictly L-shaped.

[0017] As shown in Figs. 3 and 4(a), the storage section 10 is divided into area B, which has a large width and serves as the base, and area A, which is smaller in width than area B. Area B is located closer to the ground than area A. Area A is located above a part of area B, and a child P can stand on top surface X (placing surface X), which is part of area B but not area A. A handle 13 is provided on the side surface 11b of the sub-storage section 11 (area A), so that a child can safely stand on it by holding onto the handle 13.

[0018] Therefore, the side surface of storage section 10 being substantially L-shaped does not necessarily have to be strictly L-shaped as long as storage section 10 has areas corresponding to areas A and B. For example, the side surface may be shaped like an upside-down T, which adds another area to areas A and B.

[0019] 4, the placement surface X is provided at a position T2 in the height direction that is lower than the highest position T1 of the storage unit 10. The placement surface X is not a surface on which something is always placed, but a surface on which a child P or other baggage can be placed as needed. At least a part of the sub-storage unit 11 (area A) is located above the placement surface X as part of the storage unit 10.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1(b), when a child P is resting on the placement surface X, it is difficult to open and close the main body fastener 40, but the sub-storage section fastener 12 can be opened and closed. In other words, even when a child P is resting on the placement surface X, luggage stored in the sub-storage section 11 can be put in and taken out. Furthermore, by providing a handle 13 on the side of the storage section 10 (side surface 11b of the sub-storage section 11), the sub-storage section 11 can be opened and closed using the handle 13. This makes it possible to easily put in and take out luggage stored in the sub-storage section 11, even when a child P is resting on it.

[0021] Fig. 2 is a perspective view of carry case 1 seen from the opposite direction to that of Fig. 1. On the opposite side, sub-storage section 11 may not be provided, and drink holder 60 may be provided on the opposite side of handle 13. As shown in Fig. 3, inner sub-storage section zipper 14 that can open and close the mouth of sub-storage section 11 may be provided on the inner side of sub-storage section 11. This allows luggage stored in sub-storage section 11 to be taken in and out even when storage section 10 is open.

[0022] 4 shows an example in which the placement surface X is horizontal, but the placement surface X is not limited to being horizontal and may be curved, wavy, or have other shapes. Also, the example in which the sub-storage section 11 is substantially rectangular when viewed from the side is shown, but the shape is not limited to being substantially rectangular and may be other shapes such as a circle or a polygon.

[0023] As shown in Fig. 5, the second storage space 11a of the sub-storage section 11 may be provided with a connecting part 15 such as a string or a spring. The connecting part 15 connects the inside (ceiling side) that separates the second storage space 11a of the sub-storage section 11 to the inside of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage section 11 at a fixed distance. The fixed distance is preferably a distance at which the side surface 11b of the sub-storage section 11 is maintained horizontal when the sub-storage section 11 is in an open state (Fig. 5(b)). Note that the horizontal direction includes a range between -10 degrees and 10 degrees, where the horizontal direction is 0 degrees.

[0024] The connecting portion 15 connects the ceiling of the second storage space 11a of the sub-storage portion 11 to the inside of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11. As a result, as shown in Fig. 5(b), when the sub-storage portion 11 is opened, the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11 is maintained in a horizontal direction. Therefore, an object 70 such as a drink can be placed on the inner surface of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11, and it can be used as a simple table.

[0025] As shown in Fig. 6, the sub-storage section 11, the sub-storage section fastener 12, the handle 13, the inner sub-storage section fastener 14, and the connecting section 15 may be provided on both side surfaces. Fig. 6(b) shows an example in which drinks 71, 72 are placed on the side surface 11b rotated 90 degrees with respect to the storage section 10.

[0026] The carry case 1 includes a storage section 10 having a substantially L-shaped side surface, a placement surface X provided at a position T2 lower in the height direction than the highest position T1 of the storage section 10, a sub-storage section 11 which is a part of the storage section 10 and at least a part of which is located above the placement surface X, and a handle 13 on a side surface of the storage section 10 that can be used to open and close the sub-storage section 11. This improves the convenience of storage in the carry case 1 in which a child P can be placed on the top surface of the storage section 10.

[0027] In addition, a child P can stand on the placement surface X, and the handle 13 can be used as a handle 13 for the child P standing on the placement surface X. In this way, the handle 13 can be used as a handle 13 for the child P, and can also be used to open (open and close) the sub-storage section 11.

[0028] The second storage space 11a of the sub-storage section 11 may be provided with an inner sub-storage section zipper 14 that can open and close the sub-storage section 11. This allows items to be put in and taken out of the sub-storage section 11 efficiently.

[0029] The carry case 1 further includes a connecting portion 15 that connects the inside of the sub-storage portion 11 and the inside of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11 at a fixed distance, and the connecting portion 15 maintains the inner surface of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11 at a fixed angle when the sub-storage portion 11 is in an open state. This allows objects (drinks 71, 72) to be placed on the inner surface of the side surface 11b of the sub-storage portion 11 by opening the sub-storage portion 11. [Industrial Applicability]
