Definitions

  • the invention relates to a case according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a case is known from US-A-4,679,670.
  • Cases are also known, which are on the front side Swivel castor inserts are provided which are a small swivel castor have a diameter of approx. 30 mm.
  • This Swivel castors are sunk in a pot, which in the front of the case is let in.
  • the disadvantage the known castors is that they with larger Distance from the main surfaces of the case are, creating the base width between the two castors is low. In connection with the small diameter the castors then exist even with smaller ones Uneven floors or smaller thresholds are strong Tilt tendency of the suitcase, which increases attention required when rolling the suitcase.
  • the invention has for its object a suitcase type mentioned in such a way that he also upright rolling stable and tilt-proof can.
  • the arrangement of the axis of rotation of the castor with little Distance from the top of the case and from the main surface of the suitcase causes the widest possible Base width between the two castors on the corners of the case arises, which increases the stability of the case. At the same time, the tendency to tip over is reduced in that the position of the axes of rotation of the castors relative to Focus of the suitcase is improved.
  • the axis of rotation of the rollers runs parallel to the vertical Narrow side of the case at a distance from the axis of rotation the swivel castor. This axis offset leads to the fact that the steering roller due to the leverage acting on it is easy to steer.
  • the at least one roller of the castor one Diameter of about 35 to 70 mm, preferably 40 to 60 mm.
  • the use of a large roller reduced likewise the risk of tipping over with smaller thresholds and obstacles.
  • the protrusion of the at least one roller relative to the The level of the first vertical narrow side is approx. 15 mm. At such a distance there can be smaller obstacles are still run over without the case touching down, on the other hand, the castor is not so far protrudes from the vertical narrow side that it in the normal position of the case.
  • the steering roller has two parallel coaxial stored rollers on, their running levels with the same Distance from the axis of rotation of the swivel castor.
  • a such swivel castor gives the case greater stability and reduces the risk of tipping to the side.
  • the castor stored in a housing that has a flange for attachment on the main surface of the top and the first vertical narrow side. There is one in the housing Recess provided in which the swivel castor is recessed is stored and can be freely pivoted.
  • the case shown in Fig. 1 consists of two each a main surface 2 having case shells 3, 4 each have a matching frame 7.
  • On Handle 5 is approximately in the center of the horizontal top 6 of the case attached to the case shell 4. Parallel to the top 6 runs normally at the lower end horizontal footprint 10 of the case, on the one End 8 on the case corners 12,14 rollers 16 arranged which are relative to the footprint 10 and the adjacent first, usually vertical narrow side 18 of the Case trays 3.4 survive. Turn the rollers 16 a parallel to the stand 10 and the narrow side 18 extending rigid axis of rotation.
  • the second vertical narrow side 20 is in approximately diagonally opposite to the rollers 16 fold-out pull handle 22, the handle of which is parallel to Narrow side 20 and the top 6 runs.
  • On the top and lower corners of the normally vertical second A corner protection 15 is provided in each case on the narrow side 20.
  • the narrow side 18 is in each case one by one to the upper side 6 the case shells 3.4 parallel axis of rotation 28 pivotable Steering roller 30 is arranged with at least one roller 32,34.
  • the axis of rotation 28 has a small distance a from the main surface 2 and a short distance b from the Top 6 of the respective case shells 3.4. This Distance is a maximum of about 25 mm, preferably a maximum 20 mm.
  • the swivel castor 30 consists of a swivel castor housing 48, that about an axis of rotation parallel to the top 6 of the case 28 is pivotable.
  • the castor housing 48 are two spaced-apart rollers 32, 34 coaxially on an axis of rotation orthogonal to the axis of rotation 28 46 mounted, the one relative to the axis of rotation 28 Distance c is arranged offset.
  • the distance a of the axis of rotation 28 relative to the main surface 2 and the distance b the axis of rotation 28 relative to the top 6 are preferred equal.
  • the mutual distance of the rollers is 30 mm, while the projection d of the rollers 32, 34 relative to the first vertical narrow side 18 is approximately 15 mm.
  • the distances a, b are approx. 20 to 25 mm.
  • the swivel castor housing 48 is fixed Pin connected to a housing 40 with a flange 42, the flange 42 with the major surface 2 of the top 6 and the first vertical narrow side 18 of both Case halves 3,4 is connected via rivets 50. Is to a corresponding recess on the upper case corners 24, 26 formed in the suitcase walls.
  • the housing 40 for the Swivel castor 30 has a recess 44 in which the Swivel castor 30 is arranged sunk so that it can, for example in the in Figs. position shown only protrude from the vertical narrow side 18.
  • the Swivel castor 30 is freely pivotable within the recess 44.
  • the small distance a between the axis of rotation 28 and the Main surface 2, as well as the staggered arrangement of the rollers 32 relative to the axis of rotation 28 allow a base width the support of the suitcase, which is practically over the entire width of the narrow side 18 of the case extends.
  • the case is placed upright so that it is open the two rollers 16 and the two steering rollers 30 running, is therefore a high level of stability and tipping safety ensured by the use of large casters 32.34 is still improved.
  • the castors 30 with two rollers 32, 34 have the property of being without great resistance to turn, so that the case with the fold-out handle 22 in the upright position Shape can be guided very easily and comfortably without less unevenness of the floor surface and smaller ones There would be an increased risk of tipping over obstacles.
