Definitions

  • the invention relates to a case shell consisting of two foldable case shells, equipped with rollers, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a movable suitcase of this type is known from DE-PS 38 11 280 by the applicant.
  • the locks overlapping the folding joint of the case shells are realized there as case locks. They extend at a clear distance from the corners of the case on both sides of the handle, that is, on the top of the standing case.
  • the object of the invention is to improve a generic case with lock fitting assignment technology, in particular in terms of stabilization.
  • a generic case of increased utility value is achieved: the focus here is on the integration of the closure parts, and also on achieving a high degree of closure stability, particularly in places of high stress; because the mostly excessive filling level of such cases goes entirely to the elements that connect the case shells to one another.
  • the invention solves this by penetrating the cap and the bearing plate. Two functional elements are thus placed on the area of the pull handle, spatially united as it were. Since the pull handle is usually located in the already highly stable upper corner area of a generic suitcase, the corresponding addition brings additional stabilization from the fittings.
  • the forces flowing in over the closure joint overlapping forces are favorably absorbed by the bearing plate on which the pull handle is seated. If you add the mounting surface, namely the shell wall of the case shell, the relevant load point is well equipped, despite the possibility of providing small wall thicknesses. On the other hand, forces acting on the pull handle also go to the other case shell of the case via the lock; there is therefore a load that is practically distributed over the entire case.
  • the bearing plate has a recess into which a cap closure actuating lever of the cap cap folds. The actuating means can thus be brought into a protective hiding position.
  • the top of the cap-lock operating lever is flush with the upper edge of the recess and that the recess beyond the free edge of the cap-lock operating lever leaves a space for engagement. It is sufficient if such an intervention space is two or three fingers wide. Except for this window, which forms the engagement space, the actuating lever goes smoothly and closed, that is to say step-free into the jacket wall of the shell wall.
  • the intervention space not only forms the exposure of a manageable area of the actuating lever on the underside, but in an advantageous further development also the access to locking means which are provided below the cap closure actuating lever in the form of an unlocking slide, which unlocking slide cooperates in a trap-like manner with the above-mentioned hook engagement member.
  • the invention further proposes that the closing arm of the cap closure actuating lever, which forms a hook at the end, is bent in the longitudinal direction and its convexly shaped upper side lies in a gap of an edge bead, which consists of approximately two quarter bar-like edge beads of the two case shells. With an adjusted gap depth, the top of the locking arm also disappears in the jacket wall of the case profile. At least one of the outwardly projecting edge beads can accommodate a rubber-elastic seal.
  • the leg of a pull-handle eye on the bearing plate form a planar surface with a name tag receiving compartment.
  • the flat surface falls obliquely downwards on the case side while enlarging the eye.
  • the pull handle can also nestle into the contour of the case body without protrusion.
  • hinge-side section of the frame-shaped closed handle body has a significant advantage in terms of use, since this leg does not form the actual handle, but rather the parallel leg, which is further away from the hinge point. This means that there are no traces of gripping that could make the label illegible or scratch the transparent cover.
  • the name tag storage compartment also has a certain hiding place, so that not everyone is obviously given the name of the suitcase owner and possibly his address.
  • a measure proves to be beneficial in that a second, similarly designed screw cap is provided with a corresponding operating lever in a symmetrical position opposite the pull-handle side lock lever. This too is located in the corner of the other side of the case, which is highly stable.
  • the case-side adjustment with regard to the recessed arrangement of the functional parts is also taken into account here.
  • such a further development is that the pull handle and the bearing plate are sunk into an inwardly drawn recess of the shell wall.
  • the edge bead leave a third gap symmetrically adjacent to the carrying handle of the case, in which a third cap lock is recessed, the cap lock actuating lever of which, however, carries a combination lock for blocking a bolt slide arranged below the cap lock actuating lever.
  • the narrow longitudinal side of the case facing away from the folding hinge of the case is optimally secured against closing.
  • the bolt slide forms latch latches on both sides of the combination lock housing, which engage under locking lugs, which are located on the narrow sides of the bearing blocks for the suitcase handle, between which bearing blocks the coupling lock actuating lever folds in such a way that the bolt slide actuating surface is spaced apart exposed to the inside of the folded case handle bracket.
  • the case handle bar always remains folded. For this purpose, it is spring-loaded in the folding direction; it strikes a bottom surface of a grip bar recess created in this way, forming a secant to the curve of the shell wall. Nevertheless, the handle bar is easy to grasp, namely in that the handle bar web is flush with the transition edge of the bottom surface in the rounding and forms a gusset with its front end for rounding. Here only the fingers of the user's hand need to be inserted to raise the handle against spring loading.
  • a particularly simple spring-back device consists in that the carrying handle bow spring is designed as a torsion spring seated on an axle journal of the carrying handle bow.
  • An advantageous, durable connection of the preassembled unit of the pull handle consists in a socket / pin plug connection between the bearing plate and the shell wall in addition to the screw fastening.
  • the dowel-like pins make assembly much easier. It is advantageous if at least one pin extends from the bottom of the depression.
  • the hollow underside of the bearing plate has stabilizing webs which intersect with bushings in the crossing points.
  • a favorable embodiment is realized by a socket / pin plug connection between the base plate of the cap closure and the shell wall in the region of a receiving space crossing the edge bead, in addition to a screw connection that combines the shell wall, bottom of the depression and base plate of the cap closure.
  • the hook-engaging member arranged on the base plate of the cap closure is on the back through two further walls supported.
  • the bearing blocks for the carrying handle sit on a common bar and are provided with bearing receptacles which have slide-in insertion openings for the axle journals of the carrying handle, and that the insertion openings are closed by the wall of the case shell in the installed state.
  • the carrying handle is kept functional without the use of special securing means. It proves to be advantageous that the bearing receptacles run essentially perpendicular to the direction of extension of the bar.
  • the carrying handle can be inserted quickly and safely in a short cross stroke; in addition, the load forces flow in the direction in which the bearing blocks extend.
  • a foolproof assignment results above all from the measure that, at a distance from the axle journals on the bracket side, locking edges are formed on the bracket for interaction with a longitudinal edge of the bearing block leading during assembly and a subsequent convex end face of the bracket corresponding to the pivoting course of the bracket for interaction in the usage state, so that the optional foldability can then be used.
  • an assignment-stable configuration of the carrying handle results from the fact that the axle journals form a larger-diameter collar for rail-like insertion into a corresponding undercut of the bearing receptacles. Despite the axially stubby shortness of the axle journals, they cannot jump out of the bearing mounts under extreme loads on the carrying handle. The removal of the overgrowth can only be achieved via the assembly return route.
  • the strip on the one hand forms a blocking projection on the long side at least in the area of the bearing blocks, which prevents the handle from being folded in or out. This measure also contributes to the logical assembly. In addition, such a blocking projection results in a larger accumulation of material and thus greater stability for the base plate-like strip.
  • the bar is in the form of a positive engagement in the area of the blocking projection via a longitudinal rib to the case half, which has the corresponding longitudinal groove.
  • the bar on the other hand forms an engagement tongue on the longitudinal side for gripping into the wall of the case shell forming the lid of the case. The bar at least partially engages under the other case shell via this engagement tongue, which contributes to the mutual stabilization of the case shell and the carrying fitting.
  • the case K shown consists of two case shells 1, 2 which can be folded against one another.
  • One case shell 1 forms the lid of the case; the other case shell 2 is the box of the same depth.
  • the ratio of the shell depths is 1: 2. Accordingly, the folding joint 3 runs asymmetrically. It lies in a vertical plane E-E (see FIG. 1).
  • a horizontal folding axis 4 connecting the case shells 1 and 2 with each other in terms of folding technology is located on the underside 5 of the case K. It is a meandering interlocking hinge band which is shaped in the same way as the case shells 1, 2 and into which only a longitudinal bar serves as the physical folding axis 4 has moved in.
  • the leveling wall 6 of the underside 5 which at the same time rises slightly upwards, is formed on the leveling feet 6.
  • Rollers 9 are mounted in a lower corner region 7 of the narrow side 8 of the case K there. It is a pair of rollers, which, however, spring back slightly relative to the wide areas of the case shells 1, 2, that is to say are accommodated in side depressions 10. When the case is in the standing position, the circumference of the rollers lifts slightly from a standing surface St.
  • the horizontal roller axis oriented transversely to the broad side of the case is designated by 12.
  • the case K formed by the rollers 9 to form a movable case has a pulling handle Z in a diagonal opposite position, that is to say in the upper corner region 13 of the other narrow side 14.
  • the pull handle Z is mounted about a horizontal axis 15 from its retracted or immersed position into a 90 ° use position on said narrow side 14. In the immersion direction, it is loaded by a return spring 16.
  • the pull handle Z forms, together with a bearing plate 17 with which it is waxed, a pre-assembly unit.
  • the pre-assembly unit 17 / Z can be inserted into a contour-adapted, inwardly drawn recess 18 of the shell wall W of the lower case shell 2.
  • the dimensions are chosen so that there is no exposed protrusion, rather the casing wall of the case closes the outside of the frame-shaped pull handle Z and the outside of the bearing plate 17 from the same level.
  • a flap joint I is placed over the hinged joint 3. This takes up a position as far away from the folding axis 4 as possible, with the greatest possible spatial proximity to the upper side 19 of the case K, and is therefore also in the corner region 13 and still on the narrow side 14 of the case. So there is a creative and vigorous penetration between the cap closure I and the bearing plate 17, which latter is the intermediary of the pre-assembly unit pull handle / bearing plate.
  • the bearing plate 17 following the jacket side of the case shape has a recess 20 into which a union lock actuating lever 21 of the union closure I folds in the closed basic position without a projection (cf. FIG. 7).
  • the recess 20 there is a retraction adjacent to the horizontal axis 15 of the pull handle Z, at least two fingers wide, which is open in the direction of the folding joint 3, thus giving the profile of the bearing plate 17 a meandering course.
  • the bottom 22 of the depression 20 lies snugly on the shell wall W, more precisely, even on a depression bar 23 opposite the depression 20, the shape of which can be clearly seen from FIG. 14.
  • the relevant wall offset of the depression bar 23 corresponds approximately to the wall thickness of the shell wall W.
  • the actuating lever 21 of the cap closure I interacts with it in a hooking and relentless manner.
  • the actuating lever 21 carries on its underside a frame-shaped sliding latch, which is spring-loaded in the closing direction, referred to as the unlocking slide 25.
  • the unlocking slide 25 is associated with the clip technology.
  • the indentation 20 leaves an engagement space 27 beyond the outer, right-hand edge edge 26 of the union lock actuating lever 21.
  • a good guide support in the indentation 20 is provided laterally for the actuating lever 21 by appropriately fitting storage.
  • said edge 26 projects beyond the actuating surface 28 of the unlocking slide 25 underneath.
  • hook engagement member 24 could also be realized as a separate component, in the exemplary embodiment it is, however, an integral part of a base plate 29 of the cap closure I.
  • Said base plate 29 projects beyond the bearing plate 17 on the left-hand side, so that the base plate is also directly connected to the shell wall W.
  • the edge of the shell of the corresponding case shell 2 leaves a shape-corresponding receiving space 30 there (see also FIG. 14).
  • This space is delimited by parallel side walls 31 which extend in the direction of extension of the cap closure I and which, together with an outward, circumferential bend 32, the corresponding receiving space 30 together with the Limit shell wall W in three dimensions.
  • the receiving space 30 extends in the region of a continuous peripheral bead R of the case shell 2.
  • a socket 34 is rooted on the base of the receiving space 30.
  • a pin 35 extending from the underside of the base plate 29 engages in this centering.
  • the pin 35 of this socket / pin plug connection 34/35 is hollow, so that a fastening screw 36 can be retracted from the inside of the case.
  • the same fastening screws 36 also hold the bearing plate 17 on the shell wall W.
  • a combination of the shell wall W, the bottom 22 of the depression 20 and the bearing plate 17 of the cap closure I results from a second of the fastening screws 26.
  • the second fastening screw 26 passes through the flat section of the base plate 29.
  • the further construction of the cap closure I itself is as follows:
  • the actuating lever 21 is hinged on an axis 38 which connects it to the base plate 29.
  • Parallel to the vertically aligned axis 38 is an axis 39 on the actuating lever 21 itself, which is under the load of a spring 40, which presses it in the direction of the closed position of the cap closure I.
  • the closing arm 41 assumes a convex course of curvature, this largely adapting to the course of the curvature of the edge bead R already mentioned above, which is designated 33 on the side of the case shell 2.
  • Such an oppositely directed Edge bead 43 also forms the first case shell 1.
  • the convex-shaped upper side of the locking arm 41 follows the contours corresponding to the upper side of the two edge beads 33, 43 mentioned.
  • the corresponding depression position which avoids any exposed position, is achieved by a transverse gap 44 in the area of the edge beads 33, 43 of the two case shells 1, 2 that are approximately quarter-bar-like
  • the transverse gap 44 thus composed of both basic components has a width which corresponds to that of the closing arm 41. Gap 44 and the transverse edges of this recess defining the recess 20 merge into one another in a stepless manner.
  • a second, similarly designed cap closure II is arranged in a symmetrical opposite position to the cap closure I on the pull handle.
  • the reference numbers are transferred analogously, but without repeating the text in detail.
  • a corresponding sinking-in precaution is also taken by the edge beads 33 and 43 also forming a common, transverse gap 44 here.
  • the recess 20 there is not realized on an intermediate element in the form of the bearing plate 17, but is made directly on the shell wall W.
  • a third cap III is realized in the area of the handle T.
  • the two edge beads 33, 43 of the overall edge bead R which is approximately semicircular in cross-section on the outside, leave a third gap 44.
  • This cap closure has in principle the same design features as the two cap closures I and II described above. The difference is that the cap cap III has a combination lock 45 for blocking the U-shaped unlocking slide 25 located below the actuating lever 21. This also stands in the direction of its basic position under spring loading and has bolt latches 25 'arranged in pairs, which engage under locking lugs 24' which sit on the narrow sides of two bearing blocks 46 for the carrying handle T.
  • the cap closure actuating lever 21 folds in between the bearing blocks 46 (which are connected in one piece) in such a way that the unlocking slide actuating surface 28 is exposed at a distance x from the inside of the carrying handle bracket 47, which can be pivoted into a hiding position.
  • An intervention-free space is also located here in a recess 20.
  • a secant-shaped base surface 48 is formed in the contour area of the folded down bracket 47 for the sinking arrangement of the carrying handle T or carrying handle bracket 47.
  • This bottom surface 48 can be in the direction of the width of the case beveled slightly roof-shaped so that there is no accumulation of rainwater. In this regard, the handle-grip trough created is constantly emptied.
  • the carrying handle bracket 47 is spring-loaded in the direction of the at least partial nesting or folding position.
  • the carrying handle bracket 47 merges in the region of its bearing ends 47 'into axially directed pivot pins 49.
  • the latter end with an inverse collar 50 with a larger cross section. This engages behind a portal-like open, undercut bearing receptacle 51 at both ends of the common bearing block 46.
  • the latter is screwed from the inside of the case to the shell wall W, so that the transverse threading opening for the journal 49 is then closed.
  • a spring chamber for a return spring 52 loading the carrying handle T in the folded-down position is taken into account. It is a torsion spring. The latter is plugged onto a central trunnion 53 of one bearing end 47 '.
  • An annular spring chamber 54 extends concentrically to the central support pin 53.
  • a radially oriented, outwardly open longitudinal groove 55 extends from this and runs parallel to the support pin 53. This takes up one end leg 52 'of the return spring 52, while the other end leg 52' 'is supported on a holding shoulder 56 of the bearing block 46 (cf. FIG. 25).
  • the bracket 47 is assigned so that there is an opening of the return spring 52 during assembly.
  • the assignment of the bracket 47 is made with reference to FIGS. 24 and 25 from a direction contrary to the illustration, while pivoting the bracket 47 on the underside into the position shown.
  • the handle body has to be moved slightly radially downward, since if this 180 ° spring loading position were exceeded, a locking edge 57 would hit the corresponding longitudinal edge 58 of the bearing block 46. So even when the case is not yet assembled on the case side, the pre-assembly unit remains together.
  • a bushing / pin plug connection acting in the manner of a pin is realized.
  • at least one pin 60 extends from the bottom 22 of the recess 20 as a dowel pin. Reference is made to FIG. 13, from which two further dowel-like pins 60 also originate from the rear of the folding bearing of the pull handle Z.

  • the stabilizing webs are also rooted on the outer surfaces of the depression 20, thus additionally stabilizing this depression.
  • the pull handle Z is in an end stop position shown in FIG. 9, in which at least one of its legs strikes against a base plate of the bearing block which supports the pull handle at the rear.
  • a return spring causes the closing arm 41 to be raised into its stop-limited open position (see, for example, FIG. 18).
  • This return spring is designated 64 in FIG. 7 and sits on the axis 39.
  • the pull handle Z is developed in such a way that its leg 65 on the bearing plate side forms on the inside of its pull handle eye 66 a flat surface 67 which rises in a roof shape.
  • the latter carries a name tag storage compartment 68.
  • the name tag can be inserted over a transverse shaft, not shown, and is expediently protected from direct contact by a transparent or translucent pane.
  • the other leg 69 which runs parallel to the leg 65 on the bearing plate side, is the actual handle. As can be seen in FIG. 9, it is hollow.
  • the hollow opening 69 ' is hidden from view by the corresponding counter flank 70 of the recess 18 receiving the mounting unit bearing plate / pull handle 17 / Z.
  • depression bar 23 another extends parallel to the depression bar 23, likewise from the inside Depression bar 23 'expressed here, which has the receiving holes for the dowel-like pins 60 of the pull-bearing bracket or the bearing plate 17.

  • the carrying handle T here has a trapezoidal shape, ie the bearing ends 47 'of the carrying handle bracket 47 diverge on the case side. Accordingly, the linkage method discussed in FIGS. 25-29 is structurally slightly different, but the basic principle discussed is retained, but with the task of assigning a return spring loading the carrying handle T in the direction of a specific folding position.
  • the two bearing blocks 46 are based on a common, relatively flat bar L, the bearing blocks 46 lying in the direction of extension of the bar L being significantly shorter than in FIG. 6. They only correspond to one length , as is required for the length of the fairly short journal 49. From the underside of the bearing blocks 46, bearing receptacles 51, in turn, form the insertion openings for the trunnion 49 there while maintaining the aforementioned portal shape. When the bar 60 is fixed, these insertion openings are closed, specifically by the shell wall of this case shell 2.
  • the bearing blocks 46 and their bearing receptacles 51 are essentially perpendicular to the direction of extension of the bar, which direction essentially corresponds to the rectilinear case edge.
  • the bearing blocks 46 thus dip into an angular recess at the foot of the bearing ends 47 '.
  • the locking edges 57 explained above also extend at a distance from the axle journals 49 on the bracket side on the carrying handle T. The latter cooperate with the longitudinal edge 58 of the bearing block 46, which acts as a guide during assembly.
  • the longitudinal edge 58 of the bearing block 46 then merges into a convex end face 46 'which is adapted to the pivoting requirement of the handle, and which releases the pivoting path, so that the locking edge 57 which arrives in this area after completion of the assembly and which runs parallel to the longitudinal edge 58 when plugged in, is unobstructed and can slide over the convexly curved end face 46 '.
  • the carrying handle T can now either on one side or the other Gripping position can be folded down or it can fold down from the indifferent standing position when the case is standing.
  • the stub shaft 49 In order to prevent the stub shaft 49 as a stub shaft 49 from becoming detached from the bearing seat 51, for example if the bracket is subjected to extreme stresses, the stub shaft 49 in turn forms a collar 50 with a larger diameter. During assembly, this slides in a rail-like manner into the correspondingly shaped undercut of the pocket-like bearing receptacle 51, namely up to the concavely rounded end thereof. Reference is also made to the above detailed explanation of this complex. The outward-facing end faces of the bearing blocks 46 are cut out accordingly for the passage of the journal 49.
  • a defined handle mounting can be ensured from the outset if the bar L forms a blocking projection 71 on the long side, at least in the area of the bearing blocks 46.
  • This can be seen particularly clearly from FIG. 33 and shows that the "threading" of the carrying handle T over the head of the bar from this long side, the path of which is blocked by the blocking projection 71, is not possible. Measures of this type have advantages in magazine storage, in particular also for the creation of preassembly units bar / carrying handle L / T in a specific orientation for machine assembly.
  • the bar L in the area of this locking projection has a longitudinal rib 72 on the case side in positive engagement with the shell edge SR, which on the outside, towards the locking projection 71, has a corresponding longitudinal groove 73 for positive engagement.
  • Said lateral groove 73 is laterally delimited by the upper side of the shell edge SR, which also has protruding jaws 74 and 75, which are molded onto the shell edge SR there.
  • the jaw 74 closer to the carrying handle T has a larger standing height than the peripheral jaw 75.
  • the longitudinal rib 72 tapers slightly trapezoidal in the direction of insertion, so that a kind of centering aid is present when the strip L is assigned.
  • the longitudinal rib runs the entire length of the strip L.
  • an engagement tongue 76 which is also formed thereon.
  • the latter projects beyond the hinged joint 3 of the case shells 1, 2 and fits into the corresponding wall of the case shell 1 forming the lid of the case K.
  • the form-fitting engagement which is also given here, is brought about by a receptacle 78 in the area of the engagement tongue in the wall of the case shell 1 there.
  • the blocking projection 71 formed by the flat, cross-curved bar L finds its counterpart on the longitudinal side facing away from it due to the U-profile of the edge there, so that there is also a visually balanced console profile of the bar, which console profile has the same profile in the peripheral edge bead R of the suitcase K continues.
  • a plug-in projection 79 extends in the immediate vicinity to the side of the bearing receptacles 51 on the underside of the strip L.
  • a recess 80 receiving the strip L forms an opening 81 pointing in the opposite direction, which extends in the strip continues a collar 82.
  • the slightly protruding tapering plug projection 79 towards the free end is hollowed out centrally, serving to receive a screw which can be screwed in from the inside of the case and which in this way holds the strip L on the edge of the shell SR.
  • the plug-in projection 79 can also be thermally widened, for example in the manner of a hollow rivet, due to its protrusion on the inside of the case and with a suitable choice of material.
  • FIGS. 30-35 can be further developed in the same way as the case described in FIGS. 1-29, that is to say it can also be equipped with rollers 9 and have the cap closures I-III.
