Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) This invention is used for storing clothes and small items and carrying them on trips etc.
Concerning cases including suitcases, etc.

(Prior art) Conventionally, a caster was attached to the bottom of the case body, and a horizontal grip was attached to the entire circumference of the side surface of the case body.For example, the handle was attached to the upper side walls of the vertically long bug body. , a wheel is provided on the bottom surface of the bag body that can be raised freely from the folded state overlapping the bottom surface, and that can freely roll in a direction parallel to the side wall of the bag body when raised, to maintain the upright position of the bag body. The bag was attached in three places, and a band was provided in the middle of both side walls of the bag body, which became a handle when the upper part was folded inward from the middle of the bag body.
It has become publicly known through publications such as No.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, with this type of structure, the bag body is divided into two vertically and cannot be opened left and right, but items can only be stored and taken out from the upper opening, so they are relatively long. It is impossible to neatly store items from the side inside the bag body, and hand bags installed in the middle of both side walls of the bag body cannot be stored neatly when the upper part of the bag body is folded inward from the middle of the bag body. Although it can be used as a hand for holding the bag, it cannot be used as a grip when moving the bag, it cannot be used as a knob for opening and closing the bag, or it cannot be used as a hanger. There were other inconveniences.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention consists of a case main body that is approximately square in cross section and has the shape of a vertically elongated case, which is divided into two horizontally by a vertical cut surface at the center and can be opened and closed left and right by a hinge attached to the back side. , casters attached to the four corners of the bottom of the case body 1, grips attached slightly below the top of the case body so as to surround the body of the case body, and wheels attached to the lower part of the body of the case body. The present invention attempts to solve these problems by providing a case characterized by a bulge having the same height as the above-mentioned grip provided thereon.

(Example) The case body 1 is a vertically elongated housing with a substantially square cross section, and has a fairly large volume that an elementary school age child can easily fit inside. It is divided into two parts, and is configured to be able to be opened and closed to the left and right by a hinge 2 attached to the back surface thereof. Casters 3 are attached to the four corners of the bottom surface of the case body 1, and the case body 1 is movable by the rolling motion of the casters 3. The side surface of the body at a position slightly below the top surface of the case body 1 is slightly recessed, and a grip 5 is horizontally attached to the recess 4 so as to surround the case body 1. The side surface of the body at the lower end of the case body 1 has a bulge 6 that protrudes slightly outward.
When the case body 1 is laid down, the bulging portion 6 and the above-mentioned grip 5 serve as legs that support the case body 1 horizontally. In this embodiment, the handle 5 is provided only at one location near the upper end of the case body 1, but an embodiment in which the handle 5 is provided at two locations above and below the case body 1 is also possible.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) The present invention is as described above, so by opening the case body, which is originally vertically long, from side to side, it is possible to store items.
The ejection opening can be made significantly wider in the lateral direction, allowing relatively long items to be stored inside the case body more easily and neatly than in the lateral direction. Because it is attached so that it surrounds the body of the case, it has the advantage of being able to firmly hold the handle with both hands and push and move it with free control, regardless of the size or capacity of the case body. Since it is provided around the entire circumference of the case, it can be pushed or pulled in either direction without changing the direction of the case, and the grip also serves as a knob when opening and closing the case. When necessary, it can be used as a hanger, etc., and the present invention has the effect of sufficiently solving the above-mentioned problems. Since a bulge at the same height as the above-mentioned grip hand is provided at the lower part, when the case body is to be opened and closed horizontally, the case body is stabilized in a horizontal state regardless of the protruding shape of the grip hand. It also has the advantage of being able to be held in place.
