Les valises ainsi proposées posent un problème d'assemblage ne pouvant garantir une stabilité satisfaisante tout en permettant une modulation de l'orientation de roulement, ainsi que d'aisance de traction de ladite valise.The document US 2010/0147642 A1 (ANDOCHICK SCOTT ) teaches a system of suitcases that can be assembled together, having particular structures such as hollow tracks and raised ribs in order to stabilize the assembly of several suitcases. The suitcases thus proposed pose an assembly problem which cannot guarantee satisfactory stability while allowing modulation of the rolling orientation, as well as ease of traction of said suitcase.

Le document US 2012/228074 A1 divulgue l'objet du préambule de la revendication 1.The document US 2012/228074 A1 discloses the subject matter of the preamble of claim 1.

La nécessité de surmonter les problèmes rencontrés sur les dispositifs existants a conduit à la présente invention.The need to overcome problems encountered on existing devices led to the present invention.

Résumé de l'inventionSummary of the invention

Selon la présente invention, il est fourni un appareil pour des bagages selon la revendication 1, comprenant : une valise avec des côtés sensiblement rigides, et au moins une face sensiblement rigide, dans lequel les côtés comprennent une partie de fixation flexible extensible pour fixer des objets sur la face ; et dans lequel la valise comprend une ou plusieurs roues qui font saillie en référence à une face et une ou plusieurs roues qui font saillie en référence à un côté, et une poignée avec une liaison articulée à la valise ; de telle sorte que la valise est configurée pour permettre à un utilisateur de tirer la valise sur des roues lorsque la valise est dans deux orientations, verticale et orthogonale.According to the present invention, there is provided a luggage apparatus according to claim 1, comprising: a suitcase with substantially rigid sides, and at least one substantially rigid face, wherein the sides include an extendable flexible securing portion for securing luggage. objects on the face; and in which the suitcase comprises one or more wheels which project with reference to a face and one or more wheels which project with reference to a side, and a handle with an articulated connection to the suitcase; such that the suitcase is configured to allow a user to pull the suitcase on wheels when the suitcase is in two orientations, vertical and orthogonal.

Par exemple, les roues peuvent être fournies sur un côté d'extrémité et sur une face, dans lequel la valise comprend deux côtés d'extrémité, et deux côtés longs, ainsi que deux faces opposées.For example, the wheels may be provided on one end side and one face, wherein the suitcase includes two end sides, and two long sides, as well as two opposing faces.

De cette façon, la valise peut être roulée face vers le bas et roulée debout ou inclinée sur une extrémité. En position face vers le bas, il peut être envisagé que les valises puissent être empilées.This way the suitcase can be rolled face down and rolled upright or tilted on one end. In the face down position, it can be envisaged that the suitcases can be stacked.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, les roues sur le côté d'extrémité peuvent comprendre des roues standard ou des roues de valises connues de la technique, telles que des roues pivotantes. Ces roues peuvent dépasser du côté de façon à maximiser l'espace interne dans la valise.In some embodiments, the wheels on the end side may include standard wheels or suitcase wheels known in the art, such as caster wheels. These wheels can protrude from the side in order to maximize the internal space in the suitcase.

Les roues sur la face sont envisagées pour être sensiblement plus petites, et encastrées dans la face de façon à éviter de créer une protubérance trop grande ou de trop faire saillie vers le haut, et de limiter la perte d'espace interne.The wheels on the face are envisaged to be significantly smaller, and recessed into the face so as to avoid creating too large a protrusion or protruding too much upwards, and to limit the loss of internal space.

Dans certains modes de réalisation de l'appareil, par exemple, les valises peuvent être envisagées pour être utilisées en tant que partie d'un appareil d'empilement, dans lequel l'appareil comprend plus d'un dispositif incluant la valise, à la vente. Les faces des dispositifs sont configurées pour s'emboîter, et la partie de fixation latérale peut être configurée pour fixer ensemble les côtés de différents dispositifs.In some embodiments of the apparatus, for example, the cases may be contemplated for use as part of a stacking apparatus, wherein the apparatus includes more than one device including the case, such as sale. The faces of the devices are configured to fit together, and the side attachment portion may be configured to secure the sides of different devices together.

Selon l'invention, afin de fournir une surface sensiblement plane ou afin de fournir une face mieux configurée pour s'emboîter avec d'autres dispositifs, et/ou afin de fournir une surface à la face mieux adaptée pour limiter le mouvement des objets transportés sur la face, les faces avant et arrière comportent des parties surélevées et creuses.According to the invention, in order to provide a substantially flat surface or in order to provide a face better configured to fit with other devices, and/or in order to provide a surface to the face better adapted to limit the movement of objects carried on the face, the front and rear faces have raised and hollow parts.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, les roues peuvent comprendre des roues pivotantes, par exemple du côté de l'extrémité, de façon à permettre avantageusement de plus grands degrés de mouvement.In some embodiments, the wheels may include caster wheels, for example on the end side, so as to advantageously allow greater degrees of movement.

La liaison articulée entre la valise et la poignée comprend une base articulée. Dans certains modes de réalisation, la poignée est configurée pour permettre une minimisation, par exemple configurée pour être pliable ou télescopique. Inversement, cette minimisation peut permettre à la poignée d'être extensible à des longueurs importantes, de façon à fournir un confort maximum lorsque la valise est à plat sur une face.The articulated connection between the suitcase and the handle includes an articulated base. In some embodiments, the handle is configured to allow for minimization, for example configured to be foldable or telescopic. Conversely, this minimization can allow the handle to be extendable to significant lengths, so as to provide maximum comfort when the suitcase is flat on one side.

Il peut être envisagé que, pour faciliter le rangement lorsque l'appareil n'est pas utilisé, la poignée puisse être réduite en taille par un télescopage coaxial et être articulée sur un côté ou une face de la valise.It can be envisaged that, to facilitate storage when the device is not in use, the handle can be reduced in size by coaxial telescoping and be articulated on one side or one face of the suitcase.

Selon un mode de réalisation conforme à l'invention, une valise servant de base à l'assemblage, dite « chariot », peut être assemblée verticalement avec au moins une valise supplémentaire de taille inférieure disposée sur ladite valise chariot tout en garantissant la stabilité de l'assemblage.According to one embodiment according to the invention, a suitcase serving as a base for the assembly, called a "trolley", can be assembled vertically with at least one additional suitcase of smaller size placed on said trolley case while guaranteeing the stability of assembly.

A titre d'exemple, la valise supplémentaire est de taille choisie, et ainsi apte à être rangée dans la valise chariot de manière à ce que l'encombrement spatial de l'ensemble ainsi rangé ne représente que le volume de la valise chariot.For example, the additional suitcase is of chosen size, and thus suitable for being stored in the trolley case so that the spatial bulk of the assembly thus stored only represents the volume of the trolley suitcase.

La liaison articulée de la poignée peut permettre à la poignée d'être inclinée par rapport à la valise ou être dirigée droite vers le haut depuis une extrémité de valise ; afin de permettre un transport confortable dans l'une ou l'autre orientation.The hinged connection of the handle may allow the handle to be angled relative to the suitcase or directed straight upward from one end of the case. suitcase ; to allow comfortable transportation in either orientation.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, l'articulation est fournie par un pivot. Dans d'autres, la liaison articulée peut permettre la rotation ainsi que l'articulation.In some embodiments, articulation is provided by a pivot. In others, the hinged connection may allow rotation as well as articulation.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, la liaison articulée peut être verrouillée, par exemple dans deux positions, de sorte que la valise peut être configurée pour une utilisation facile dans une première ou une seconde orientation. De plus ou alternativement, la liaison articulée peut comprendre une articulation à crans ou à cliquet, de façon à permettre une pluralité de positions verrouillées.In some embodiments, the hinged link can be locked, for example in two positions, so that the case can be configured for easy use in a first or second orientation. Additionally or alternatively, the articulated connection may comprise a notch or ratchet joint, so as to allow a plurality of locked positions.

La partie de fixation flexible peut s'étendre d'un ou de plusieurs côtés de la valise. Par exemple, dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie peut s'étendre à partir des deux côtés longs, de manière à se rencontrer au-dessus du centre de la face arrière. Dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie peut comprendre quatre portions séparées se rencontrant au-dessus de la face arrière, de façon à fournir un moyen plus efficace de maintenir les objets sur la face arrière sans perte.The flexible attachment portion may extend from one or more sides of the suitcase. For example, in some embodiments, the portion may extend from both long sides so as to meet above the center of the rear face. In some embodiments, the portion may include four separate portions meeting above the rear face, so as to provide a more efficient means of holding objects on the rear face without loss.

La partie de fixation flexible peut comprendre une portion unique, qui est configurée pour s'étendre depuis un côté de la valise, passer au-dessus d'un objet et se clipser dans un clip sur le côté opposé. Les côtés de la valise peuvent ainsi différer, ou dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie peut comprendre deux portions qui peuvent être espacées et/ou inversées en formation, en passant par-dessus la face arrière lors de l'utilisation pour se clipser.The flexible attachment portion may include a single portion, which is configured to extend from one side of the case, pass over an object, and clip into a clip on the opposite side. The sides of the suitcase may thus differ, or in some embodiments, the part may comprise two portions which may be spaced apart and/or inverted in formation, passing over the rear face when in use to clip together.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, les clips ou autres portions peuvent être verrouillées ou verrouillables de manière à verrouiller la partie lorsque la partie est étendue sur la face arrière.In some embodiments, the clips or other portions may be latched or lockable so as to lock the portion when the portion is extended on the rear face.

Dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie peut être configurée pour s'étendre sur un mécanisme de bobine. Dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie peut comprendre un matériau élastomère.In some embodiments, the portion may be configured to extend over a spool mechanism. In some embodiments, the part may comprise an elastomeric material.

Dans certains systèmes, les modes de réalisation des valises de la présente invention peuvent différer les uns des autres en configuration et/ou en dimension de façon à former un système modulaire de multiples valises et dispositifs complémentaires partageant certaines ou toutes leurs caractéristiques, tant qu'ils répondent aux caractéristiques de la revendication 1.In some systems, embodiments of the cases of the present invention may differ from each other in configuration and/or dimension so as to form a modular system of multiple cases and complementary devices sharing some or all of their characteristics, as long as they meet the characteristics of claim 1.

Description détaillée des FiguresDetailed description of the Figures

En référence aux Figures, il est généralement représenté un appareil pour des bagages comprenant généralement : une valise 99 avec des côtés sensiblement rigides 7, 8, 17, 77 et deux faces sensiblement rigides 1,10, dans lequel les côtés comprennent une partie de fixation flexible extensible 6 pour sécuriser des objets sur la face 1 ; et dans lequel la valise comprend des roues 21 qui font saillie en référence à la face 10 et des roues 3 qui font saillie en référence au côté 17, et une poignée 2 avec une base articulée 12, de telle sorte que la valise 99 est configurée pour permettre à un utilisateur de tirer la valise sur les roues 3, 21 dans plus d'une orientation.With reference to the Figures, there is generally shown an apparatus for luggage generally comprising: a suitcase 99 with substantially rigid sides 7, 8, 17, 77 and two substantially rigid faces 1, 10, in which the sides comprise a fixing part extensible flexible 6 to secure objects on side 1; and in which the suitcase comprises wheels 21 which project with reference to the face 10 and wheels 3 which project with reference to the side 17, and a handle 2 with an articulated base 12, such that the suitcase 99 is configured to allow a user to pull the suitcase on the wheels 3, 21 in more than one orientation.

La base comprend une liaison articulée 12 entre la valise 99 et la poignée 2.The base includes an articulated connection 12 between the suitcase 99 and the handle 2.

En se référant en particulier au mode de réalisation représenté sur la Figure 1, il est représenté un mode de réalisation comprenant une valise à faces et côtés rigides 99 avec des coins arrondis et renforcés 71. Le mode de réalisation est formé dans un matériau thermoplastique ou polymère tel que l'acrylonitrile butadiène styrène (ABS).Referring in particular to the embodiment shown in the Figure 1 , there is shown an embodiment comprising a suitcase with rigid faces and sides 99 with rounded and reinforced corners 71. The embodiment is formed in a thermoplastic or polymer material such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).

Le mode de réalisation comprend une poignée métallique 2, avec un revêtement en poudre, se repliant de façon coaxiale, et ayant un élément de prise en main 15 orthogonal à deux éléments allongés et télescopiques 13, 14.The embodiment comprises a metal handle 2, with a powder coating, folding coaxially, and having a grip element 15 orthogonal to two elongated and telescopic elements 13, 14.

Les côtés sont continus autour des coins arrondis, et agissent pour séparer les deux faces parallèles 1, 10, comprenant une face avant 10 et une face arrière 1.The sides are continuous around the rounded corners, and act to separate the two parallel faces 1, 10, comprising a front face 10 and a rear face 1.

Les deux faces sont ondulées, avec des parties surélevées et creuses.Both sides are wavy, with raised and hollow parts.

Les faces sont ondulées de façon correspondante et égale avec des parties respectives de pistes creuses et de nervure surélevées 11 de telle sorte que la face arrière d'une valise s'emboîte avec la face avant d'une autre valise et inversement.The faces are corrugated correspondingly and equally with respective portions of hollow tracks and raised rib 11 such that the rear face of one case fits with the front face of another case and vice versa.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation conforme à l'invention, les valises dites « supplémentaires » 100 montées sur une valise dite « chariot » 99 peuvent être identiques.According to a first embodiment in accordance with the invention, the so-called “additional” suitcases 100 mounted on a so-called “trolley” suitcase 99 may be identical.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, la valise dite « chariot » 99 peut être assemblée avec des valises supplémentaires 100 de tailles inférieures tout en garantissant la stabilité de l'assemblage.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the so-called “trolley” suitcase 99 can be assembled with additional suitcases 100 of smaller sizes while guaranteeing the stability of the assembly.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif, lesdites valises supplémentaires 100 peuvent être de taille intermédiaire pour la première valise posée sur la valise chariot 99, et de petite taille pour la valise posée sur la valise de taille intermédiaire.By way of non-limiting example, said additional suitcases 100 can be of intermediate size for the first suitcase placed on the trolley case 99, and of small size for the suitcase placed on the suitcase of intermediate size.

Avantageusement, l'ensemble formé par les valises ainsi décrites permet un rangement optimisé, les valises pouvant être rangée les unes dans les autres de manière à ce que l'encombrement spatial ne représente que le volume de la valise chariot.Advantageously, the assembly formed by the suitcases thus described allows optimized storage, the suitcases being able to be stored one inside the other so that the spatial bulk only represents the volume of the trolley case.

Cependant, la face arrière comprend également la liaison articulée de la poignée 2 et un emplacement pour le rangement de la poignée 2 lorsqu'elle n'est pas utilisée. La liaison articulée comprend deux bases pivotantes articulées 12 situées aux extrémités proximales des éléments de poignée allongés 13, distaux de l'élément de prise en main 15. L'emplacement pour le rangement comprend une indentation 18 en forme de U s'étendant depuis les bases pivotantes articulées 12.However, the rear face also includes the articulated connection of the handle 2 and a location for storing the handle 2 when not in use. The hinged connection includes two hinged pivot bases 12 located at the proximal ends of the elongated handle members 13, distal to the grip member 15. The storage location includes a U-shaped indentation 18 extending from the articulated swivel bases 12.

La face arrière 1 comprend, en outre, des surfaces surélevées et creuses 11, qui correspondent avec la face avant 10 opposée, et notamment les roues 3, de façon à permettre l'assemblage et l'emboîtement des faces, permettant ainsi un empilement efficace des valises avec un encombrement minimal, assurant aussi que les valises sont moins susceptibles de bouger lorsqu'elles sont empilées. De plus ou alternativement, l'emboîtement limite également le mouvement en extrémité.The rear face 1 further comprises raised and hollow surfaces 11, which correspond with the opposite front face 10, and in particular the wheels 3, so as to allow the assembly and nesting of the faces, thus allowing efficient stacking suitcases with minimal bulk, also ensuring that suitcases are less likely to move when stacked. Additionally or alternatively, interlocking also limits movement at the end.

Avantageusement, les roues 21 faisant saillie en référence à une face 10 sont encastrées selon des dimensions choisies de manière à permettre de garantir la stabilité d'un emboîtement entre les faces ondulées possédant des parties surélevées et creuses, tout en garantissant une hauteur suffisante pour permettre un roulement adéquat selon une orientation horizontale, sans frottement de ladite face 10 au sol.Advantageously, the wheels 21 projecting with reference to a face 10 are recessed according to dimensions chosen so as to guarantee the stability of an interlocking between the corrugated faces having raised and hollow parts, while guaranteeing a sufficient height to allow adequate rolling in a horizontal orientation, without friction of said face 10 on the ground.

La poignée s'étend à partir d'un côté proximal ou supérieur, selon un angle permettant à l'utilisateur de tirer la valise dans son orientation préférée, à savoir avec la poignée 2 à un angle obtus par rapport à la face arrière 1 lorsque la face avant 10 est en contact avec le sol, et largement coaxiale avec la face arrière 1 lorsque la face inférieure 17 est en contact avec le sol.The handle extends from a proximal or upper side, at an angle allowing the user to pull the suitcase in their preferred orientation, namely with the handle 2 at an obtuse angle to the rear face 1 when the front face 10 is in contact with the ground, and largely coaxial with the rear face 1 when the lower face 17 is in contact with the ground.

Les roues pivotantes 3 du côté inférieur 17 impliquent que la valise peut être fabriquée de façon similaire à une valise classique.The swivel wheels 3 on the lower side 17 mean that the suitcase can be manufactured similarly to a conventional suitcase.

La face avant 10 comprend quatre petites roues 21 espacées dans deux ensembles de roues parallèles situées à proximité des extrémités.The front face 10 includes four small wheels 21 spaced in two sets of parallel wheels located near the ends.

Des roues plus petites 21 sur face avant 10 facilitent également la fabrication car elles peuvent être insérées dans un couvercle inférieur à coque dure ou une face avant. Ceux-ci sont également plus discrets par rapport aux roues à disque.Smaller wheels 21 on front face 10 also facilitate manufacturing because they can be inserted into a hard shell bottom cover or front face. These are also more discreet compared to disc wheels.

La poignée 2 est intégrée dans la face arrière 1. Ceci lui permet à la fois de s'articuler et de glisser pour une plus grande longueur. La poignée 2 reste en position avec un ajustement par friction.Handle 2 is integrated into rear face 1. This allows it to both articulate and slide for greater length. Handle 2 stays in position with a friction fit.

L'utilisateur peut tourner la poignée 2 puis appuyer sur un bouton situé à l'intérieur de la poignée pour l'allonger.The user can turn handle 2 then press a button located inside the handle to extend it.

Comme représenté sur les Figures 5 et 6, des dispositifs multiples 100 sont configurés pour être empilés les uns sur les autres et sur la valise 99 de la présente invention de manière à former un second aspect de la présente invention. Les faces opposées 1, 10 des dispositifs sont configurées de la même façon que pour la valise et s'emboîtent l'une dans l'autre grâce aux nervures surélevées et pistes creuses 11, 20. De cette façon, l'appareil est configuré pour l'empilement de plus d'une valise et d'autres dispositifs ou objets dans lequel les faces opposées 1,10 de la valise sont configurées pour s'emboîter l'une dans l'autre en utilisant une nervure surélevée et des parties de pistes creuses 11, 20.As shown on the Figures 5 And 6 , multiple devices 100 are configured to be stacked on top of each other and on the case 99 of the present invention so as to form a second aspect of the present invention. The opposite faces 1, 10 of the devices are configured in the same way as for the suitcase and fit into each other thanks to the raised ribs and hollow tracks 11, 20. In this way, the device is configured to stacking more than one suitcase and other devices or objects in which the opposing faces 1,10 of the suitcase are configured to nest together using a raised rib and track portions hollows 11, 20.

La fixation d'objets sur la face arrière de la valise 1 est réalisée par une sangle rétractable 61 de la partie extensible 6 avec un clip de boucle mâle 23 qui s'étend depuis une poignée articulée centrale 9 sur un côté long 77 du mode de réalisation et qui se clipse dans un clip de boucle femelle 16 du côté opposé 8 de la valise afin de fixer les valises ensemble. Dans certains modes de réalisation, la partie 6 peut s'engager avec les poignées d'autres valises.The fixing of objects on the rear face of the suitcase 1 is carried out by a retractable strap 61 of the extensible part 6 with a male buckle clip 23 which extends from a central articulated handle 9 on a long side 77 of the mode of realization and which clips into a female loop clip 16 on the opposite side 8 of the suitcase in order to secure the suitcases together. In some embodiments, part 6 can engage with the handles of other suitcases.

Plus particulièrement, le moyen de fixation 6 comprend ainsi une sangle en toile de nylon (RTM) 61 avec une boucle thermoplastique 23 à son extrémité, dans lequel la sangle 61 s'étend d'un enrouleur 24 à travers une fente 22 dans le côté 77 de la valise, s'étend sur la face arrière 1 de la valise, et tous les objets placés sur la face arrière, et se clipse dans le clip de boucle 16 de l'autre côté 8 de la valise.More particularly, the fixing means 6 thus comprises a nylon canvas strap (RTM) 61 with a thermoplastic buckle 23 at its end, in which the strap 61 extends from a reel 24 through a slot 22 in the side 77 of the suitcase, extends over the rear side 1 of the suitcase, and all objects placed on the rear side, and clips into the buckle clip 16 on the other side 8 of the suitcase.

Connu de la technique, les côtés longs de la valise 8, 77 comprennent des poignées articulées centrales 9.Known from the art, the long sides of the suitcase 8, 77 include central articulated handles 9.
