Description

DISPOSABLE CASE FOR A SUITCASE

The utility model relates to accessories for suitcases, namely to disposable covers, in particular made of polyethylene and suitable for 5 suitcases for travel, including for air travel.

Suitcases carried in the luggage compartment are often exposed to contamination, tearing, chips, scratches on the outer surface of the suitcase, and damage to locks, which spoil the appearance of the suitcase and can lead to an unsuitable condition for use. In addition, while traveling, the suitcase may be exposed to adverse environmental factors such as wind, rain, ultraviolet light, dirt, etc. At the same time, it is not always convenient to use devices for wrapping suitcases with stretch film.

Known cover for a suitcase from patent RU 149797, made of 15 elastic fabrics based on polyurethane fiber. The cover contains a hole for putting the cover on the suitcase and a hole for the handle.

However, such a cover is reusable, which increases its cost due to the use of polyurethane fiber and requires washing after use, which reduces usability. In addition, polyurethane 20 fibers are destroyed by ultraviolet radiation and chlorinated water.

The manufacture of polyurethane covers requires relatively sophisticated and expensive equipment, and has a high labor input.

The closest analogue of the claimed utility model is the technical solution described in the text of patent document BE 1012127. 25 This solution is a disposable flexible case for protecting a suitcase with sealed seams and with a cutout for the handle.

However, this technical solution, despite the indication of the possibility of performing several sizes, does not allow to precisely fit the cover to the size of the suitcase and ensure its snug fit. A loose fitting cover has an increased tendency to tear and deform. This can lead to premature wear and failure to fulfill its main function - to protect the suitcase.

The technical problem to which the claimed utility model is directed is to protect the suitcase from external adverse 35 influencing factors. The technical result of the utility model is to increase the tightness of the disposable cover to the surface of the suitcase, which reduces the likelihood of deformation and rupture of the cover and, in turn, increases the safety of the surface of the suitcase and reduces the negative impact of external 5 influences, thereby increasing the service life of the suitcase itself. At the same time, the manufacturing process of covers does not require specialized equipment - a technological line for the production of plastic bags can be used, it has low labor costs and relative ease of implementation.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the disposable cover for the suitcase, which is a bag with sealed seams, a hole for the handle and a hole for putting the cover on the suitcase, is made of polyethylene, equipped with cutouts for the wheels and two clips on the basis of adhesive tape made with the ability to fit the cover to size

15 of the suitcase, and one of the clamps is designed to tighten the cover around the suitcase, the second clamp is for the location on the side of the hole for putting the cover on the suitcase.

As the polyethylene can be used low pressure polyethylene or high pressure polyethylene, or a mixture of low polyethylene

20 pressure and high pressure polyethylene, or biodegradable polyethylene.

The clips can be attached to the case.

A disposable case for a suitcase may contain at least one additional latch.

A disposable cover for a suitcase can be made with dimensions of 25 1100 mm by 830 mm or 1090 mm by 785 mm, or 1020 mm by 740 mm, or 950 mm by 690 mm, or 820 mm by 645 mm, or 750 mm by 600 mm.

The latches can be made on the basis of adhesive tape, the edges of which are bent to the central part with the formation of a sticky section between them for attachment to the surface of the cover,

zo Cutouts for wheels can be made for two-wheeled suitcases and for four-wheeled suitcases.

A disposable cover can be made of transparent polyethylene, colored polyethylene, as well as polyethylene with a print and / or logo. The inventive device due to cutouts under the wheels and clips on the basis of adhesive tape allow you to adjust the cover to the specific size of the suitcase, providing a snug fit. The latches for tightening the cover around the suitcase allow you to adjust its size in relation to the transverse size of the suitcase. Cutouts for wheels and clips on the side of the hole for putting the cover on the suitcase provide a snug fit to the bottom of the suitcase, while allowing the wheels of the suitcase to be used during transportation. In this case, the use of polyethylene as a material is extremely important. Flexible and relatively resistant to deformations, it allows you to easily simulate a cover for the required size of the suitcase and provides reliable placement of latches. In addition, polyethylene is simple, convenient and available in production and operation.

The best embodiment of the claimed utility model is shown in FIG. 1-6, which depict:

FIG. 1 - cover for a two-wheeled suitcase, rear view;

FIG. 2 - cover for a two-wheeled suitcase, front view;

FIG. 3 - cover for a two-wheeled suitcase, side view;

FIG. 4 - cover for a four-wheeled suitcase, front view;

FIG. 5 - cover for a four-wheeled suitcase, rear view;

FIG. 6 - cover for a four-wheeled suitcase, bottom view.

Positions 1-5 are indicated:

1 - case;

2 - hole for the handle;

3 - hole for putting on the cover on the suitcase;

4 - cutout for the wheel;

5 - latch.

A disposable cover 1 for a suitcase is a bag made of polyethylene, equipped with a hole 2 on the handle, a hole 3 for putting a cover 1 on a suitcase, cutouts 4 for wheels and clips 5.

For two-wheeled suitcases, case 1 is equipped with two cutouts 4 for wheels, respectively (Fig. 1), for four-wheeled suitcases, four cutouts 4 for wheels (Fig. 4-5).

For four-wheeled suitcases, it is optimal to use four clips 5: two from the side of hole 3 for putting the cover on the suitcase, two in the middle of the suitcase (Fig. 4-6). For small case sizes 1 and Suitcases may use a minimum number of clips 5, for example, two. For large suitcases, for a better fit of the suitcase with cover 1, you can use a larger number of clips, for example, six or eight.

The latch 5 on the basis of the adhesive tape is made in the form of a “butterfly”: the two edges of the adhesive tape are folded to the center with the formation of a free section of the adhesive tape, by which the latch 5 is attached to the surface of the cover 1.

For various sizes of suitcases, it is advisable to use the size range of covers 1, for example, of six sizes: 1100 mm by 830 mm, 1090 mm by 785 mm - for large suitcases, 1020 mm by 740 mm, 950 mm by 690 mm - for medium suitcases, 820 mm by 645 mm, 750 mm by 600 mm - for compact suitcases.

As polyethylene, it is advisable to use low-pressure polyethylene or high-pressure polyethylene, or a mixture of low-pressure polyethylene and high-pressure polyethylene, or biodegradable polyethylene.

The execution of the cover 1 of transparent polyethylene and printed polyethylene helps to increase the identification of the suitcase. The use of colored polyethylene reduces the burnout of the suitcase material under the influence of external influences.

The device is made as follows.

A polyethylene sleeve of the required size is cut across into rectangular pieces, obtaining a blank of cover 1. Then, a hole 2 for the handle and cutouts 4 for the wheels are cut. The hole 3 for putting the cover on the suitcase is formed automatically from the side of the cutouts 4 under the wheels. In the upper part of the cover 1, the seams near the hole 2 under the handle are sealed. Then, clips 5 are attached to the cover 1. The clips 5 can also be included with the cover in order to enable the customer to determine their location on their own.

If necessary, a print and / or logo is applied to the case.

The device is used as follows.

From the side of the hole 3 for putting the cover 1 on the suitcase, the cover 1 is pulled onto the suitcase so that the handle of the suitcase is located in the hole 2 under the handle, and the wheels in the cutouts 4 under the wheel. Then, using the clips 5 from the side of the hole 3 for putting the cover 1 on the suitcase, the free edges of the cover 1 are fixed to each other so that in the vertical plane of the suitcase the cover 1 fits snugly against the surface of the suitcase (Fig. 6). FROM using the clips 5 in the middle part of the suitcase achieve a snug fit of the cover 1 to the vertical surfaces of the suitcase.

This case, due to its versatility and the ability to fit the size, can also be used for bags on wheels.

Thus, the surface of the suitcase is protected by a cover. At the same time, the handle of the suitcase and the wheels have free access for unimpeded transportation of the suitcase.

The given example is a special case and does not exhaust all possible implementations of the utility model.
