Abstract
A folding collapsible luggage includes a folding collapsible luggage body selectively set between a collapsed position and an extended position, two base blocks fixedly mounted at the bottom side of the folding collapsible luggage body, a retractable handle assembly including two outer tubes fastened to the folding collapsible luggage body and respectively pivotally connected to the base blocks, and two spring-loaded pushers respectively mounted in the base blocks and abutted against the respective bottom ends of the outer tubes for facilitating biasing of the folding collapsible luggage body between the collapsed position and the extended position and stopping the folding collapsible luggage body in the collapsed or extended position positively.
Claims6
A folding collapsible luggage, comprising:
- a folding collapsible luggage body selectively set between a collapsed position and an extended position;
- at least one base block fixedly mounted at a bottom side of said folding collapsible luggage body;
- a retractable handle assembly comprising at least one outer tube fastened to a back side of said folding collapsible luggage body, each said outer tube having a bottom end thereof pivotally connected to one respective said base block and defining on the bottom end thereof a first abutment surface and a second abutment surface;
- and
- at least one pusher mounted in said at least one base block, each said pusher comprising a planar pushing block disposed at a bottom side relative to one respective said outer tube of said retractable handle assembly and a spring member stopped between said pushing block and one respective said base block to force said pushing block into abutment against the bottom end of the respective said outer tube;
- wherein when biasing said folding collapsible luggage body from said extended position to said collapsed position, said at least one outer tube is biased toward said at least one base block, causing said pushing block of each said pusher to be forced by the respective said spring member into abutment against the said second abutment surface of the respective said outer tube;
- when biasing said folding collapsible luggage body from said collapsed position to said extended position, said at least one outer tube is biased in direction away from said at least one base block, causing said pushing block of each said pusher to be forced by the respective said spring member into abutment against the said first abutment surface of the respective said outer tube.
