Definitions

the invention relates to a rigid transport container, for example a shell case, with at least one carrying handle articulated on an outside, which consists of a handle strip and two end legs and which is articulated parallel to the handle strip on the container side.
Such rigid transport containers are widely used. They serve as a suitcase, also for holding high-quality tools and electronic devices.
the carrying handle (s) are attached approximately centrally to a narrow side and are articulated in such a way that, due to their own weight, they fall over to the narrow side in question as soon as the container is parked.
the carrying handle protrudes beyond the edge of the case. It then forms a projection, which in many cases is perceived as annoying because the user in question can bump into it or because the bulkiness of the container is increased. This proves not only during transport, but also when opened, especially if the container contains professional equipment that can be used on site in confined spaces with the container open.
FR-PS 1 460 833 describes different variants of a retractable case handle.
the legs articulated transversely to the longitudinal direction of the handle both on the container side and on the handle side.
the articulation points in the direction of the handle bar either in longitudinal slots within the handle bar or in recesses in the container wall, the carrying handle as a whole can be stretched, flattened and countersunk in a container wall recess.
the designs require relatively large wall recesses.
the large number of individual parts required tends to rattle when the vehicle is shaken, which can be uncomfortable.
the sliding guides have the disadvantage of low lateral stability.
a handle for a women's handbag is known from DE-PS 5 09 972.
the bracket is fully swiveled into the inside of the bag when not in use. In any case, it is necessary to open the handbag and manipulate the inside of the bag.
the invention has for its object to provide a transport container of the type mentioned, in which the handle is space-saving and without protruding to the outside, even with a flat container shape, when the transport container is parked or stored, and in which still easy handling the handle is guaranteed.
the legs each consist of two sections which are connected to one another axially parallel to the container-side joint via an intermediate joint, and that the length of the container-side section maximally the distance between the container-side joint and the container edge and the length of the other section corresponds at most to the narrow side of the container.
the invention has the advantage that the legs of the handle are folded in the rest position and thus shortened in length. Since the lengths of the leg sections are each adapted to the width of the narrow container side in question, it is ensured that the carrying handle is stowed within the dimensions of the narrow side. When it moves, it assumes its stretched position without manipulation of the handle itself or the container.
both the joint on the container side and the intermediate joint are designed to run smoothly, so that the leg sections automatically assume their folded position in the rest position due to their own weight.
the joints may be subjected to a predetermined friction which is dimensioned such that they maintain their respective stretched or folded position until the handle is actuated by the user.
the two leg sections are offset in the axial direction and run parallel next to one another in the angled state. In this way a particularly flat arrangement is achieved.
the carrying handle also does not carry on, even in the case of an ergonomically adapted, thick handle strip, if the grip strip and the associated leg section come to lie in a recess in the narrow side of the container in the angled state.
a preferred development of the invention consists in that the leg sections on the container side consist of two axially offset arms, between which the section on the handle side is articulated. This has the advantage that the two leg sections can be connected to one another in a particularly stable manner, because twisting and tilting of the intermediate joint is counteracted by the bilateral support of the handle-side section, in particular if the parts of the arms and the handle-side section which are in engagement with one another are designed as guide surfaces are.
the intermediate joint can be formed in a simple manner in that a pin mounted in the arms is guided through the section on the handle side or in that the section on the handle side is provided with two pins which engage with bearing eyes in the two arms.
the grip strip and the associated leg sections are formed in one piece.
a flat and nevertheless stable storage of the two arms on the container side is achieved in that they are articulated on their outer sides in each case to a shoulder on the narrow container side are.
the leg sections on the handle side can thus be pushed completely between the two arms.
FIG. 1 shows the narrow side 10 of a transport container, which can be a suitcase, the housing of an electrical device or the like, in the region of a carrying handle 11.
the width of the narrow side 10 is marked with B.
the carrying handle consists of a handle bar 12 and two end legs 13, 13 ', each consisting of a handle side and a container-side section 14 and 15 respectively.
the handle-side sections 14 and the handle bar 12 are in one piece, e.g. made of plastic. Since the legs 13, 13 'are each of the same design, only the leg 13 shown on the right is referred to below.
the handle-side and the container-side sections 14 and 15 are connected to one another via an intermediate joint 16, which allows the two sections 14, 15 to be bent.
1 shows the position in which the handle-side and the container-side sections 14, 15 are "folded” and come to lie side by side essentially parallel to the narrow side 10.
the length of the handle-side and the container-side section 14, 15 is dimensioned in such a way that no part of the carrying handle 11 protrudes beyond the narrow side 10. In the example shown the length of the handle-side section 14 corresponds to the width B of the narrow side 10.
the container-side section 15, which is articulated approximately centrally in the narrow side 10 via a joint 17, is accordingly only half as long as the handle-side section 14 and extends to the edge the narrow side 10.
the section 15 on the container side consists of two parallel arms 18, 19 which are arranged at a distance from one another in the axial direction of the joint 17 and the intermediate joint 16.
the section 14 on the handle side comes to rest between the two arms 18, 19, which are reversed but otherwise of the same design.
the grip strip 12 is in the illustrated, angled position of the carrying handle 11 with at least one half in a recess 20 in the narrow side 10.
the two arms 18, 19 are on their outer sides, i.e. on the sides facing away from the handle-side section 14, each articulated to a hump-like extension 21 or 24, which thus belong to the joint 17 on the container side.
a helical spring 22 is arranged around the associated axis, which is biased in such a way that the arms 18 and 19 are brought into the folded position and held there. In this way, the carrying handle 11 automatically assumes a space-saving position when it is not in use.
a helical spring 22 is only present on one of the arms 18 or 19.
leaf springs for example a leaf spring can be assigned to each arm 18, 19, so that a very space-saving construction is achieved.
a weight measurement can be carried out with the help of the helical spring 22 and a scale 23, which could be attached, for example, to the associated attachment 21, so that the container weight could be read on the scale mentioned in this way. If the carrying handle 11 were to be gripped, the arms 18, 19 would then be unfolded to a greater or lesser extent depending on the container weight, the arms 18, 19 being stretched against the spring force of the helical spring 22. The arm 19 or a mark made thereon (not shown) serves as a pointer in this measurement.
Fig. 2 illustrates in solid lines the angled rest position of the handle 11 shown in Fig. 1. It also shows in dashed lines the extended position of the handle 11 ', in which the handle and container-side sections 14, 15 stretched perpendicular to the narrow side 10 are.
the intermediate joints 16 are moved upward and aligned with the container-side joint 17.
the length of the legs 13, 13 'thus corresponds to the length of the handle and the container-side section 14.15.
