## Abstract

The present invention is directed to a trolley case with a charging device, which comprises a case body, a pull rod frame mounted on the case body and a traveling wheel mechanism installed at the bottom of the case body; the pull rod frame is provided with a telescopic pull rod used for dragging the case body, the pull rod frame is provided with a charger accommodating cavity positioned in the middle of the pull rod and used for placing a charging device, the upper part of the charger accommodating cavity is provided with an opening, sliding chutes are arranged on both sides of the opening, and a sliding cover used to cover or open the opening is slidably arranged in the sliding chutes. The independent storage position of the external charging device of the present invention is convenient for taking the charging device at any time, and the setting of the sliding cover prevents the charging device from falling out easily; the spring can eject the charging device and can make the charger accommodating cavity adapted to charging devices of various specifications, the specifications of the charging device are proportional to the compression deformation of the spring, the larger the charging device is, the more greatly the spring is compressed, and the smaller the charging device is, the more slightly the spring is compressed.
