This application claims the priority of China Patent Application No. 202420680926.9 filed on Apr. 3, 2024, which is entitled “Assembly structure for suitcase”, the entire contents of which, including the amendments therein, are all incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of accessories related to the assembly and disassembly of mother and child packages, in particular to an assembly structure for a suitcase.
At present, there are many ways to fix subpackages in the market, but all of them have their shortcomings. The most common method is tight fitting, and the disadvantage of this method is that if the sub-package is tightly combined with the master package, it is very inconvenient to disassemble and replace the sub-package. If the combination is too loose, the sub-package will shake inside. The second method is to use magic glue or rivets. The disadvantage of this method is that the structure is relatively large for easy operation, which will occupy space and be unsightly. At the same time, after the hook and loop is used for a long time, the whole adhesiveness will be reduced.
In the prior art, for example, U.S. patent publication No. US20150351510A1 provides a camera and accessory suitcase with improved protection and access functions, which is used for protecting articles placed inside the suitcase by arranging a protection insert inside the suitcase. However, after long-term use, the protective insert can not protect the internal items; when the outside of the suitcase collides or falls, the protective insert can't be fixed inside the suitcase, which leads to the collision and damage of the article.

Referring to
In this embodiment, the movable member 400 can be set on the sub-package 200 or the master package 100. Specifically, the set position refers to the position where the movable member 400 and the fixed member 300 are in a parallel state. For example, when the fixed member 300 is set on the master package 100 along the length direction of the master package 100, the set position is a position where the movable member 400 rotates to a position parallel to the length direction of the master package 100 and the fixed member 300. In use, if the movable member 400 is arranged on the master package 100, it is only necessary to rotate the movable member 400 on the master package 100 when assembling or disassembling; if the movable member 400 is arranged on the sub-package 200, the movable member 400 can be assembled or disassembled by moving along the periphery of the sub-package 200.
Taking the movable member 400 assembled on the sub-package 200 as an example, the use process of the present disclosure is as follows:
If it is necessary to disassemble movable member 400, it is necessary to drive the movable member 400 to move first, so that the movable member 400 can be rotated from a position parallel to the fixed member 300 to a position intersecting with the fixed member 300 (i.e., changing from a state where it is completely projected onto the fixed member 300 to a state where it is partially projected onto the fixed member 300), so that the movable member 400 can be disassembled from the assembly part 310 to complete the disassembly.
In this embodiment, the joint between the movable member 400 and the sub-package 200 or the master package 100 is made of an elastic material, so that the movable member 400 will be reset after rotating. For example, once the external force disappears, the movable member 400 will be reset to the position parallel to the sub-package 200 or the master package 100.
In this embodiment, the assembly part 310 can be a through hole structure, and then after the movable member 400 passes through the through hole, the movable member 400 is moved to a state parallel to the fixed member 300, and then the movable member 400 is located at the side of the through hole, thus forming a shield to complete the assembly, and at the same time, it is locked and firmly assembled.
Referring to
In order to facilitate movement, a gap is formed between the support surface 410 and the movable member 400. After assembly, the support surface 410 and the movable member 400 are located at both sides of the assembly part 310. When in use, the movable member 400 drives the support surface 410 to move. After the assembly, the support surface 410 and the movable member 400 are engaged on both sides of the assembly part 310 to form a limit clamp to ensure the assembly strength. After disassembly, the support surface 410 and the movable member 400 are also located at both sides of the gap. During disassembly, the movable member 400 also moves along the assembly part 310 formed by the through hole, so that the support surface 410 passes through and exits the through hole, and the disassembly is completed. The design of the support surface 410 and the gap enhances the stability of assembly, prevents the sub-package 200 from shaking in the master package 100, and improves the user experience.
For the convenience of production and connection reinforcement, in this embodiment, the fixed member 300 is arranged at any position of the larger master package 100, so as to realize the assembly of the sub-package 200 at any position. When installing, the fixed member 300 can be installed on the master package 100 or on the extension part located on the inner wall of the master package 100 by means of a mold or the like. When directly installed on the master package 100, the fixed member 300 can be installed at the edge position, the top position or any position desired by the user. When the fixed member 300 is arranged on the extension part of the inner wall, it reduces the interference to the strength of the main body of the master package 100. At this time, when the fixed member 300 is assembled at the extension and articles are placed in it for use, due to the addition of the extension part, the tensile force on the assembly position will be dispersed, thus reducing the influence on the master package 100.
In actual installation, if the fixed member 300 is arranged on the inner wall of the master package 100, a plurality of assembly parts 310 can be arranged along the circumferential direction of the inner wall of the master package 100, and the sub-package 200 can be assembled with the assembly parts 310 at different positions to adjust the assembly position in the master package 100, so that the sub-package 200 can be assembled at any position in the master package 100, for example the end or the middle position. This diversified design can realize various assembly solutions, effectively improving the application range of the sub-package 200. In this embodiment, the assembly part 310 is a plurality of through holes, and the movable member 400 passes through the through holes, so that the movable member 400 and the assembly members are assembled or disassembled.
In this embodiment, the movable member 400 adjusts its position by rotating motion, and is assembled with the fixed member 300 within the set range of the master package 100, so that it can be assembled within the set range of the master package 100. At this time, the set area can be the edge of the master package 100 or the inside of the accommodating cavity 110 formed by the master package 100. In order to ensure that it can bear a certain force when used after assembly, as shown in
Specifically, referring to
In this embodiment, in order to prolong the service life of the movable member 400 and reduce the direct wear of the movable member 400, a traction member 500 is also arranged on the movable member 400, and the traction member 500 can drive the movable member 400 to move to a set position. The traction member 500 can be a rope device, and then the rope device can move or rotate in any direction, so as to drive the movable member 400 to rotate and move horizontally.
In order to facilitate assembly, the traction member 500 can be an extension of the movable member 400 or arranged on the extension line of the movable member 400. Because the traction member 500 and the movable member 400 are arranged in the same direction, the traction member 500 will drive the movable member 400 to complete assembly or disassembly while moving in any direction.
In this embodiment, the sub-package 200 and the master package 100 can be assembled only by simple structural design, which is very convenient and fast. However, the flat movable member 400 takes up less space and will not cause other articles to have no place to store. At the same time, in order to ensure the firmness when the sub-package 200 is assembled to the master package 100, a plurality of T-shaped movable members 400 can be arranged on the outer surface of the sub-package 200, and each movable member 400 is provided with a traction member 500 made of a rope structure, so that the sub-package 200 can be installed at any position relative to the master package 100.
Specifically, by operating the traction member 500, the user drives the movable member 400 to rotate in the set direction. After the rotation, the movable member 400 passes through the assembly part 310 on the fixed member 300, and after the movable member 400 passes through the assembly part 310, the traction member 500 is released, and the movable member 400 returns to the normal direction due to the elastic action of the connecting part 420, so that the movable member 400 and the sub-package 200 are just engaged on the two sides of the assembly part 310 to complete the fixation, by which the sub-package 200 can be assembled with the master package 100 through the assembly part 310. When it is necessary to disassemble the sub-package 200, the traction member 500 is pulled and operated to move in the reverse direction during the assembly process, so that one end of the movable member 400 exits the assembly part 310 first, and at this time, the movable member 400 is synchronously operated to completely exit the assembly part 310, thus completing the disassembly between the sub-package 200 and the master package 100.
In this embodiment, at least two extension structures may be added in the master package 100 to form the fixed member 300, and a plurality of assembly parts 310 are arranged on the extension structures. At this time, there can be a plurality of assembly parts 310 on the same fixed member 300. In the assembly, at least two fixed members 300 are symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the master package 100 to realize the symmetrical assembly of the sub-package 200. At least two assembly parts 310 are arranged on each fixed member 300, so as to increase the firmness of assembly, and at the same time, allow the sub-package 200 to be assembled at different positions relative to the master package 100, and improve the flexibility and adaptability of installation.
In actual installation, the fixed member 300 can be fixed on the inner side of the master package 100, and at this time, the fixed member 300 and the master package 100 are arranged in parallel. The fixed member 300 may also be arranged on the inner side of the master package 100 in a non-parallel manner (i.e., obliquely). The fixed member 300 is provided with at least two hole-like structures or ring-like structures to form the assembly parts 310.
Compared with the simple buckling or bonding in the prior art, the present disclosure ensures firm connection, and users can easily perform assembling and disassembling through the combination of the fixed member 300 and the movable member 400, thus avoiding the fussy and inconvenience of the traditional fixing method of the sub-package 200. At this time, due to the parallel arrangement, assuming that the two are subjected to a force that separates them, the connection between them will be more firm. Furthermore, the movable member 400 is a T-shaped horizontal organization, and it occupies less internal space and reduces the influence on the use of the master package 100. When in use, the traction member 500 directly drives the movable member 400 to move, which is convenient for control and operation, so that the combination or separation of the sub-package 200 and the master package 100 can be realized quickly, and the user experience is good.
First of all, in the present disclosure, the cooperation between the fixed member 300 and the movable member 400 is utilized, that is, the movable member 400 passes through the assembly part 310 and is engaged with or separated from the assembly part 310, so that the movable member 400 originally projected locally is completely projected on the assembly part 310. At this time, when it is in a parallel state, it may be a parallel state after disassembly or a parallel and engaged state after assembly. The operation is simple, convenient and fast.
Secondly, in the present disclosure, only the movable member 400, the fixed member 300 and the assembly part 310 need to be added between the sub-package 200 and the master package 100 to achieve detachable connection. This design has the advantages of simple structure, less occupied space, convenient assembly and disassembly process and easy use.
Finally, a traction member 500 is added in the present disclosure, so that the traction member 500 draws the movable member 400 close to the assembly part 310 first, and then passes through the assembly part 310 for disassembly or assembly with the assembly part 310. The movable member 400 after passing through can move again to be locked or disengaged. The movable member 400 generally has a certain hardness, and the traction member 500 is a flexible structure, which can better assist in driving the movable member 400 to move.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure (not shown), the master package is set as a large traveling backpack, and a plurality of accommodating areas are arranged inside, so that sub-packages with different sizes can be placed. A plurality of accommodating areas are provided with fixed members, and the top of the sub-package is also provided with movable members. Sub-packages with different sizes are fixed to the master package through the cooperation between the movable members and the fixed members. This small detachable sub-packageS can be specially used to store various items such as water bottles, cameras, snacks, tools, etc., and can be placed according to the needs of users, so as to ensure that various items will not be mixed with each other during long-distance transportation. At the same time, to a certain extent, the application scope of the master package and the sub-package extends from the luggage backpack to the camera bag, tool kit, snack bag or other uses expected by users.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure (not shown), the master package is arranged as a long luggage case, and the sub-package is configured as a spacer installed inside the master package. At least three or more fixed members are vertically arranged on four corners of the inner wall of the master package, the fixed members are all provided with assembly parts. The four corners of the top surface of the master package are all provided with movable members. The sub-package can be selectively positioned to the fixed members at different positions through the movable members, so as to fully restrict the articles stored in the master package. This design can be suitable for storing clothes that are inconvenient to fold. When in use, the clothes are put into the master package in turn, and then the movable members at the four corners of the sub-package are matched with the fixed members at the four corners of the master package, so that the clothes are layered on the sub-package. This design can facilitate the storage of clothes that are inconvenient to fold. Because the clothes are placed in the master package and restricted by the sub-package, various pieces of clothing are placed separately by the sub-package, which ensures that these clothes will not be mixed during transportation, facilitates the storage of clothes, and improves the convenience and flexibility in the storage process.
