The present disclosure will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following embodiments are based on the technical solutions to provide detailed implementation manners and specific operation procedures, but the scope of protection of the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments.
As shown in FIG. 1-5, a novel luggage comprises a hollow main body 1, a front side and a rear side of the main body 1 are respectively provided with a front opening 11 and a rear opening 12, the front opening 11 and the rear opening 12 communicates the interior and the exterior of the main body 1; the front opening 11 and the rear opening 12 are respectively provided with a front cover 2 and a rear cover 3, an edge of the front cover 2 being connected to an edge of the front opening 11 in an at least partly detachable manner and an edge of the rear cover 3 being connected to an edge of the rear opening 12 in an at least partly detachable manner.
When the disclosure is used, depending on what is needed the front opening or the rear opening may be opened so that the desired item can be found from a near side, and the use thereof is more flexible and convenient.
In practical use, some of the edges of the front cover 2 may be connected to some of the edges of the front opening 11 in a detachable manner and some of the edges of the rear cover 3 may be connected to some of the edges of the rear opening 12 in a detachable manner, while the rest of the edges are undetachable, which should allow the front opening to be completely opened. In the present embodiment, corresponding to positions, three edges of the front cover 2 is connected to three edges of the front opening 11 in a detachable manner and three edges of the rear cover 3 is connected to three edges of the rear opening 12 in a detachable manner, while part of edges in the rest one position are detachably connected, leaving the remaining part of the edges undetachably connected. It is also possible that all edges of the front cover 2 is connected to all edges of the front opening 11 in a detachable manner and all edges of the rear cover 3 is connected to all edges of the rear opening 12 in a detachable manner.
In the present embodiment, the edge of the front cover 2 is connected to the edge of the front opening 11 in an at least partly detachable manner by a front zipper 5, and the edge of the rear cover 3 is connected to the edge of the rear opening 12 in an at least partly detachable manner by a rear zipper 6.
In addition to connecting the front cover and the front opening, the rear cover and the rear opening by a zipper, it is also possible to provide metal or plastic frame available for detachable connection such as snap-fit at the edges of the front cover and the front opening, the rear cover and the rear opening respectively.
In the present embodiment, the novel luggage further comprises a lock body 4, the lock body 4 being disposed on one side of the main body 1; two sides of the lock body 4 are respectively provided with a keyhole matched with a slider 21 of the front zipper 5 and a keyhole matched with a slider 31 of the rear zipper 6, and the keyhole on each side is locked and unlocked by two drive mechanisms independently. When used a front zipper and a rear zipper may be locked at the same time, and any one of the front zipper and the rear zipper may be unlocked.
The keyhole and the driving mechanism on each side may be a slider-locking mechanism commonly used in the existing luggage, which are integrated to be the lock body.
Further, the lateral section of the main body 1 in a vertical standing state has a T-shaped or inverted T-shaped structure; the shape and the size of the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 matches the shape and the size of the front opening 11 and the rear opening 12, respectively.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the lateral section of the main body 1 in a vertical standing state has an inverted T-shaped structure.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, when the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 are connected to the front opening and the rear opening, respectively, the main body 1, the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 are combined to exhibit a square shape. However, the combination is not limited to the square shape, and may have various reasonable shapes such as a prism or a cylinder.
Further, the horizontal portion and the vertical portion of both sides of the T-shaped or inverted T-shaped structure are transitioned through a rounded corner.
Even further, the bottom of the main body 1 is provided with a roller 7, the top of the main body 1 is provided with a pull rod 8, and a lateral side of the main body 1 is provided with a handle 9.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the interior of the main body 1 is provided with at least two separation layers, at least part of an edge of each separation layer is detachably connected to an inner wall of the main body 1.
It is to be noted that by providing at least two separation layers and having at least part of the edge of the separation layers detachably connected to the inner wall of the main body, it is possible to divide the main body into spaces of different proportions as needed.
For example, as shown in FIG. 5, two separation layers 13, 14 may be provided, wherein the separation layer 13 may divide the interior of the main body 1 into two spaces with a proportion of 3:7, and another one separation layer 14 may divide the interior of the main body 1 into two spaces with a proportion of 1:1, the divided spaces being respectively available for communication to the front opening and the rear opening. When the separation layer 13 is uncovered and the separation layer 14 is connected to the main body, the main body is divided into two spaces with a proportion of 1:1 by the separation layer 14. In contrast, when the separation layer 14 is uncovered and the separation layer 14 is connected to the main body, the main body is divided into two spaces with a proportion of 3:7. When both the separation layers are uncovered, the interior of the main body 1 is an integral space.
Through the above design, the client's multiple needs can be flexibly satisfied, thereby maximally utilizing the internal space of the luggage.
In the present embodiment, one edge of the separation layers 13, 14 is undetachably connected to the inner wall of the main body 1, and the remaining edges are detachably connected to the inner wall of the main body 1. It is also possible that all edges of the separating layers 13, 14 are detachably connected to the inner wall of the main body 1. The detachable connection may be achieved in a conventional manner such as a zipper or a buckle.
A person skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications according to the above technical solutions and concepts, and all such changes and modifications should be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
