Can be done.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17, in the state where the second case portion 22 and the lid 23 are arranged in the regular closed positions, the handle 60 is in the used posture with respect to the second long side surface 12B. A second clearance C1 is formed between the inner surface of the side engaging portion 64 and the upper surface of the engaging bar 49B. As a result, when the case 10 is lifted with the first or second buckles 15 and 16 forgotten to be tightened, the second case portion 22 or the lid 23 is half-opened and the buckles 15 and 16 are forgotten to be tightened. Can be noticed.

It should be noted that when the handle 60 in the half-open state of the second case portion 22 or the lid 23 is rotated to the used posture by being configured to have only the first clearance and not the second clearance C1, the second case portion 22 or the lid 23 is rotated. The case portion 22 and the lid 23 may be completely closed.

This concludes the description of the configuration of Case 10 of the present embodiment. Next, the action and effect of this case 10 will be described. To load and unload luggage to and from the first or second case portions 21 and 22 of the case 10, the first or second buckles 15 and 16 are placed in a sideways position with the case 10 as shown in FIG. It may be removed and the second case portion 22 or the lid 23 may be opened as shown in FIG. 5 or FIG.

When the loading / unloading of luggage is completed, the second case portion 22 and the lid 23 are closed, and the first and second buckles 15 and 16 are tightened, the handle 60 can be gripped and the case 10 can be carried. However, the case 10 may be lifted by grasping the handle 60 in a state where the second case portion 22 and the lid 23 are closed and the first and / or second buckles 15 and 16 are forgotten to be tightened. .. However, in the case 10 of the present embodiment, when the handle 60 is gripped and rotated for lifting, the handle side engaging portion 64 and the lid side engaging portion 49 of the handle 60 are engaged with each other as shown in FIG. The lid 23 is fixed to the first case portion 21, and the second case portion 22 between the first case portion 21 and the lid 23 is also fixed.

As a result, in the case 10 of the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the luggage from falling off due to forgetting to fix the second case portion 22 and the lid 23 by the first or second buckles 15 and 16. Further, since the handle 60 comes into contact with the connecting wall 53 and is held in the working posture when slightly rotated from the position upright from the second long side surface 12B, the case 10 is put in the working posture as shown in FIG. The handle 60 is also held in the working posture when placed on the floor or the like, and the state in which the second case portion 22 and the lid 23 are fixed to the first case portion 21 can be held.

Further, since the handle-side engaging portion 64 and the lid-side engaging portion 49 are housed in the handle support portion 50 and engage with each other, they can be protected from collision with other members. Further, the complicated engaging structure of the handle side engaging portion 64 and the lid side engaging portion 49 can be hidden to enhance the aesthetic appearance. Further, since the receiving port 50K that receives the lid-side engaging portion 49 of the handle support portion 50 is closed by the closing wall 48 provided on the lid 23, the aesthetic appearance can be enhanced in this respect as well.
