When it is necessary to weigh the items loaded in the suitcase 10, buckle the pressure plate 500 and lift the suitcase 10 together with the handle 102 or the grip 202. The gravity exerted on the handle 102 or the grip 202 is transmitted to the weighing sensor 301 through the pressure plate 500, and then transmitted to the mainboard 202 through the weighing sensor 301. The mainboard 202 converts the corresponding weight digital information into the corresponding weight digital information and displays it on the display screen 303.

[0044] It is understood that the connection between the pressure plate 500 and the load cell 301 can be a fixed connection between the pressure plate 500 and the load cell 301, or a detachable connection structure with the load cell 301. When the pressure plate 500 and the load cell 301 adopt a detachable connection structure, the pressure plate 500 is movably arranged on the handle 102 or the grip 202 and can produce a certain displacement relative to the handle 102 or the grip 202. When it is necessary to measure the weight of the items loaded in the suitcase 10, the pressure plate 500 is buckled and moved in a direction close to the handle 102 or the grip 202, and the suitcase 10 is lifted. The pressure plate 500 abuts against the load cell 301, and the gravity acting on the handle 102 or the grip 202 is transmitted to the load cell 301 through the pressure plate 500, thereby completing the weight measurement of the items. After the weight measurement is completed, the suitcase 10 is put down, the pressing plate 500 is released, the pressing plate 500 is disengaged from the weighing sensor 301, and the weighing sensor 301 is restored.

[0045] The suitcase 10 of the present application is provided with a weighing assembly 300 on the handle 102 or the grip 202 of the pull rod assembly 200, and through the cooperation between the pressure plate 500 and the weighing assembly 300, when or during a trip, when it is necessary to timely know the weight of the items loaded in the suitcase 10, the weighing mode of the suitcase 10 is turned on, and the suitcase 10 is lifted by the handle 102 or the grip 202 to measure the weight of the items loaded in the suitcase 10. This makes it convenient for the user to travel, avoids the embarrassment of rearranging the suitcase 10 due to the overweight of the suitcase 10 in special occasions, and appropriately avoids the extra expenses caused by the overweight of the suitcase 10.

[0046] It should be noted that the pull rod assembly 200 may also be provided with only one pull rod 201. When one pull rod 201 is provided, the pressing plate 500 may be provided on one side or both sides of the pull rod 201, which will not be described in detail here.

[0047] 2, 3, and 6, in some embodiments, the weighing assembly 300 of the luggage case 10 proposed in this application further includes a power generation assembly 304. The power generation assembly 304 is connected to the mainboard 202 and is used to provide power to the weighing assembly 300. When the weighing assembly is mounted on the handle 102, the power generation assembly 304 is correspondingly mounted on the handle 102. When the weighing assembly 300 is mounted on the grip 202, the power generation assembly 304 is correspondingly mounted on the grip 202. As a result, the luggage case 10 proposed in this embodiment does not require a battery to power the weighing assembly 300, eliminating dependence on batteries and contributing to environmental protection.

[0048] It can be understood that the power generation component 304 used in the weighing electronic scale usually includes a generator, a gear set, a rectifier and voltage regulator module, an energy storage module, etc. The input end of the gear set is connected to the driving part, and the output end of the gear set is connected to the generator. The driving part drives the gear set to rotate, and the gear set drives the generator to rotate at high speed to generate electricity. The current generated by the generator is processed by the rectifier and voltage regulator module and stored in the energy storage module to provide power for the main board 202.

[0049] Referring to Figures 1 to 7 , the luggage case 10 of the present application provides a first specific embodiment. A weighing assembly 300 is disposed on the handle 102. A button 305 is provided on the handle 102. The button 305 is connected to the main board 202. The button 305 operates the main board 202 to perform operations such as zeroing the weighing assembly 300 and converting weight units. A power generation assembly 304 is correspondingly disposed within the handle 102. The handle 102 thus serves both as a handle 102 and as a weighing device for the luggage case 10. In order to realize the assembly of the handle 102 and cooperate with the driving power generation component 304 to generate electricity, in this embodiment, two connecting seats 111 are provided on the box body 100. The two ends of the handle 102 are connected to the corresponding connecting seats 111 through a connecting shaft 113, and the handle 102 can rotate around the axis of the connecting shaft 113. A first ring gear 112 is provided on the connecting seat 111, and the first ring gear 112 is engaged with the input end of the gear set of the power generation component 304. In addition, a accommodating space 101 is provided on the surface of the box body 100. When the handle 102 is not in use, the handle 102 is stored in the accommodating space 101. When the handle 102 is needed to lift the suitcase 10, the handle 102 is rotated 90 degrees. Since the first ring gear 112 on the connecting seat 111 is engaged with the gear set of the power generation component 304, when the handle 102 rotates, the gear set of the generator component is driven to rotate through the first ring gear 112, thereby driving the generator to generate electricity. The electricity generated by the power generation component 304 is supplied to the main board 202 for use.

[0050] To measure the weight of items loaded in suitcase 10, hold down pressure plate 500 and move it toward handle 102. Lift suitcase 10 using handle 102, causing pressure plate 500 to contact load cell 301. The force exerted on handle 102 is then transferred to load cell 301 via pressure plate 500, effectively measuring the weight of the items. After the weight measurement is complete, lower suitcase 10 and release pressure plate 500, releasing the contact between pressure plate 500 and load cell 301, allowing the load cell 301 to return to its original position.

[0051] 6 , in some embodiments, the handle 102 is assembled by an upper cover 104 and a lower cover 105 , and connecting portions 107 are provided at both ends of the lower cover 105 , and the connecting portions 107 are used to dock with the connecting seat 111 , and the connecting portion 107 is provided with an avoidance groove 108 , and the side wall of the avoidance groove 108 is provided with a connecting hole 109 , and an accommodating cavity 106 is formed between the upper cover 104 and the lower cover 105 , and the weighing component 300 and the power generation component 304 are arranged in the accommodating cavity 106 , and the avoidance groove 108 is communicated with the accommodating cavity 106 , and the first gear ring 112 is arranged in the avoidance groove 108 , and when the handle 102 rotates, the avoidance groove 108 can avoid the first gear ring 112 .

[0052] Referring to Figure 7, the suitcase 10 of the present application proposes a second specific embodiment, which has a structure basically the same as the first embodiment, except that the weighing component 300 is arranged on the grip 202, the grip 202 is rotatably connected to the pull rod 201, and a second ring gear 203 is provided at one end of the pull rod 201, and the second ring gear 203 is transmission-connected to the gear set of the power generation component 304.

[0053] The handle 201 can be extended and retracted along the height of the suitcase 10. When not in use, it can be stored inside the suitcase 10. When needed, it can be pulled out along the height of the suitcase 10, engaging the rollers 110 to pull the suitcase 10. The grip 202 can rotate 90 degrees relative to the handle 201. Because the second ring gear 203 on the connecting base 111 meshes with the gear set of the generator assembly 304, rotation of the handle 102 drives the gear set of the generator assembly through the second ring gear 203, which in turn drives the generator to generate electricity. The electricity generated by the generator assembly 304 is then supplied to the mainboard 202.

[0054] To measure the weight of items loaded in the suitcase 10, hold the pressure plate 500 in place and move it toward the grip 202. Use the grip 202 to lift the suitcase 10. The pressure plate 500 contacts the load cell 301, and the force exerted by the grip 202 is transmitted to the load cell 301 via the pressure plate 500, completing the weight measurement. After the weight measurement is complete, lower the suitcase 10 and release the pressure plate 500. This releases the pressure plate 500 from the load cell 301, allowing the load cell 301 to return to its original position.

[0055] 8 , 9 , 10 and 11 , the suitcase 10 of the present application proposes a third specific embodiment. The difference between the suitcase 10 disclosed in this embodiment and the suitcase 10 disclosed in the first and second embodiments is that the position and structure of the driving component 400 that drives the power generation component 304 to generate electricity are different.

[0056] In this embodiment, the weighing assembly 300 is disposed on the handle 102 , and the handle 102 is provided with a driving assembly 400 , which is in transmission connection with the gear set of the power generation assembly 304 .

[0057] Specifically, the driving component 400 includes a movable part 401 and a power generation button 403. The movable part 401 is provided with a rack 402, which is connected to the gear set. The power generation button 403 is connected to the movable part 401. When the driving component 400 needs to be used to drive the power generation component 304 to generate electricity, the power generation button 403 is pressed. The power generation button 403 drives the movable part 401 to move along the predetermined direction of the handle 102. When the movable part moves, the rack 402 is used to drive the gear set of the power generation component 304 to rotate, and then drive the generator to rotate, so that the generator generates electricity. The electricity generated by the power generation component 304 is supplied to the mainboard 202 for use.

[0058] 10 and 11 , in some embodiments, a transmission gear 404 is provided in the handle 102 , and the transmission gear 404 engages with the rack 402 and the gear set. Through the transition connection of the transmission gear 404 , the matching error between the rack 402 and the gear set of the power generation component 304 can be eliminated, thereby improving the assembly accuracy between the drive component 400 and the power generation component 304 .

[0059] 10 and 11 , in some embodiments, the handle 102 is provided with a guide column 103 , the movable part 401 is sleeved on the guide column 103 , a return spring 405 is provided on the guide column 103 , one end of the return spring 405 is in contact with the movable part 401 , and the return spring 405 is used to reset the movable part 401 . By providing the guide column 103 and the return spring 405 , the movable part 401 can be accurately moved, and separation between the rack 402 and the transmission gear 404 during the movement of the movable part 401 can be avoided. In addition, the return spring 405 ensures the reset of the power generation button 403 to ensure the normal use of the weighing assembly 300 .

[0060] It is understandable that in some embodiments, the drive component 400 can also adopt a tension spring connected to the rotating shaft of the gear set of the power generation component 304, a knob with a gear ring, or other structural forms. When a knob with a gear ring is used, the gear ring of the knob engages with the gear set of the power generation component 304 for transmission.
