BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

A luggage system that allows a traveler to move or transport one or more luggage either in an upright or in horizontal position, without the need of a cart and by pulling them from a bendable or foldable handle from different degrees, also luggage can be pulled by a nylon strap that it is attached from both sides of the luggage.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1: shows three luggage in an upright position all attached by four straps, however, this design consists of another four straps on the other side that are not visible. It also displays a bendable or foldable handle and four wheels each luggage. The luggage have eight zippers in total, four are not visible on the other side.

FIG. 2: displays three luggage in a horizontal position with four straps, plus another four straps that are not visible on the other side which helps to stack or attach all luggage together securely. The luggage at the bottom has eight wheels, four to use in an upright position and four to use in a horizontal position. It also has a foldable handle which will be used to pull the luggage from different degrees. The luggage have a total of eight zipper, four on each side.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The new design of this luggage eliminated the need to use a cart to move objects and particularly one or more luggage anywhere and principally at airports. The invention claimed here solves this problem.
This invention, the luggage cart, can transport or move one or more luggage without the need of a cart. The luggage itself converts into a cart. With this new design, the luggage are able to move upright or horizontal by pulling from a unique foldable handle from various degree and angles, and the luggage can be pulled by a nylon strap.
When moving multiple luggages upright, they are pulled from a handle which becomes foldable. It can be moved from different degrees and angles, the luggage are attached one by one, or with one or more straps around all the luggage, the luggage has one or more straps located inside a compartment with a zipper that, again, allows the luggage to be attached to each other. When there is no need to move or transport multiple suitcase luggage, the straps are placed inside the compartment and just zip up the zipper and the luggage is used as regular luggage.
When moving the luggages in a horizontal position, the luggage would have three or more regular and/or retractable wheels, one or more straps to attach or stack to the next luggage on top, now that the second luggage is secured, the traveler would use the straps from the second luggage to stack the third luggage and so forth. The first luggage would have a foldable handle that can be pulled from different degrees, zippers on the sides where the straps are placed when not being used. The luggage has a special compartment where the wheels can retract or place back when not being used as a cart.

How the Invention Works

My invention basically converts a luggage into a cart for the purpose of moving or transporting multiple luggage and eliminate the need of a cart. My invention has a foldable handle, which it will be bendable when needed to pull the luggage, the luggage, also, can be pulled by a nylon strap. The wheels, when it used in horizontal position, will retract or bend and hide in the small compartment and bring down when the luggage converts into a cart. The strap or belts will hide in a zipper on the side, when the luggage needs to stack or attach, the straps would be removed from the inside the small compartment that it closes by a zipper.
When the new luggages system is used in upright position, the luggage are attached to each other with one or more straps and pull from the bendable handle or a nylon strap, in this case, just the foldable handle and the straps are different from a regular luggage, but this new system gives a traveler the option of which position to use to move or transport his or her luggage.

How to Make the Invention

Taking a regular luggage, one will need to make the handle foldable to pull the luggage from different degree or add a long strap attached on both side of the luggage. Then, will add 3 or more retractable wheels on the back of luggage to move the luggages in a horizontal position, put zippers on the side of the luggages to hide the straps when not being used, place one or more straps on side of the luggages to stack or attach one another or all together at once. If it is preferred to use the system upright, just hide or retract the wheels back its compartment, place all the luggage in typical upright position and pull from the foldable handle or a nylon strap.
To manufacture the luggage, nylon, fabric, PVC and/or similar materials can be used.

How to Use the Invention

A person can use my invention to move multiple luggages without a cart or help from anyone.
