  • a hard-shell luggage includes a first shell having a first panel and a first ring frame connected to the first panel; a second shell having a second panel and a second ring frame connected to the second panel, wherein the first shell is connected to the second shell to form a storage space therein; a first stop mechanism connected to the first ring frame to be abutted against an edge of the first panel to stop a movement toward the storage space of the first panel; and a second stop mechanism connected to the second ring frame to be abutted against an edge of the second panel to stop a movement toward the storage space of the second panel.
  • the first and the second stop mechanisms each has an annular rib formed on an inner side of the first and the second ring frames respectively.
  • the annular ribs extend toward the storage space respectively.
  • a luggage of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a first shell 10, a second shell 40, a first stop mechanism 24, and a second stop mechanism 54.
  • the first and the second shells 10 and 40 could be moved toward each other to a closed position, and moved away from each other to an opened position.
  • a storage space 70 ( FIG. 2 ) is formed in the first and the second shells 10 and 40.
  • the first shell 10 has a first panel 12 and a first ring frame 14 connected to the first panel 12, wherein the first panel 12 is made of a hard material, and the first ring frame 14 is made of metal.
  • the first panel 12 has a first curved plate portion 16 at a margin thereof, and the first ring frame 14 has a first curved frame portion 18 at an edge thereof.
  • the first curved frame portion 18 of the first ring frame 14 is attached to the first curved plate portion 16, with portions overlapped, to connect the first panel 12 to the first ring frame 14.
  • the first ring frame 14 has a first connecting portion 20 and a first decorating piece 22 on an outer side thereof.
  • the first connecting portion 20 is an elongated protrusion on the outer side ( FIG. 4 ) and extending to the entire first ring frame 14.
  • the first decorating piece 22 engages the first ring frame 14, so that the first decorating piece 22 surrounds the outer side of the first ring frame 14.
  • the first stop mechanism 24 is connected to the first ring frame 14 to stop the first panel to move inwards.
  • the first stop mechanism 24 is an annular rib formed on an inner side of the first ring frame 14.
  • the first stop mechanism 24 extends toward the storage space 70.
  • the first stop mechanism 24 is abutted against an edge 26 of the first curved plate portion 16 of the first shell 12 when the first panel 12 is connected to the first ring frame 14.
  • the first panel 12 has a first shoulder portion 28 at the outer side thereof. An edge 30 of the first curved frame portion 18 is abutted against the first shoulder portion 28 when the first curved frame portion 18 is attached to the first curved plate portion 16.
  • the second shell 40 has a second panel 42 and a second ring frame 44 connected to the second panel 42, wherein the second panel 42 is made of a hard material, and the second ring frame 44 is made of metal.
  • the second panel 42 has a second curved plate portion 46 at a margin thereof, and the second ring frame 44 has a second curved frame portion 48 at an edge thereof.
  • the second curved frame portion 48 of the second ring frame 44 is attached to the second curved plate portion 46 of the second panel 42, with portions overlapped, to connect the second panel 42 to the second ring frame 44.
  • the second ring frame 44 has a second connecting portion 50 and a second decorating piece 52 on an outer side thereof.
  • the second connecting portion 50 is an elongated protrusion on the outer side ( FIG. 4 ) and extending to the entire second ring frame 44.
  • the second decorating piece 52 engages the second ring frame 44, so that the second decorating piece 52 surrounds the outer side of the second ring frame 44.
  • the second stop mechanism 54 is connected to the second ring frame 44 to stop the second panel to move inwards.
  • the second stop mechanism 54 is an annular rib formed on an inner side of the second ring frame 44.
  • the second stop mechanism 54 extends toward the storage space 70.
  • the second stop mechanism 54 is abutted against an edge 56 of the second curved plate portion 46 of the second shell 42 when the second panel 42 is connected to the second ring frame 44.
  • the second panel 42 has a second shoulder portion 58 at the outer side thereof.
  • An edge 60 of the second curved frame portion 48 is abutted against the second shoulder portion 58 when the second curved frame portion 48 is attached to the second curved plate portion 46.
  • the first stop mechanism 24 is abutted against the edge 26 of the first curved plate portion 16 of the first panel 12, and the second stop mechanism 54 is abutted against the edge 56 of the second curved plate portion 46 of the second panel 42, so that the first and the second panels 12, 42 will be secured firmly even when the first and/or the second panels 12, 42 is impacted to increase a structure strength of the luggage.
