Description
- Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a luggage case, and more particularly to a cover structure for a luggage case.
- Related Prior Art
- Today, luggage cases have become indispensible travel companions. In order to carry more goods and store the goods in a more classified manner, the luggage cases are mostly provided with a plurality of layers of pockets which are disposed on a cover. The cover is connected and can be closed and opened with respect to a case body by a zipper. However, the zipper is susceptible to break and corrosion after repeated use.
- The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.
- The present invention is aimed at providing a cover structure for a luggage case, which can be used repeatedly.
- Therefore, a cover structure for a luggage case is to be connected to a case body of the luggage case, and comprises:
- a main shell including an outer annular edge and being connected to the case body;
- a cover including a pivot end to be pivoted to the main shell, and further including a connecting peripheral edge which is located toward the outer annular edge;
- at least one magnetic member located between the outer annular edge and the connecting peripheral edge; and
- two pivot members each including a pivot, and a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion which extend from the pivot, wherein the first connecting portion is fixed to the main shell, and the second connecting portion is fixed to the cover.
- With the at least one magnetic member disposed between the outer annular edge of the main shell and the connecting peripheral edge of the cover, the outer annular edge of the main shell and the connecting peripheral edge of the cover can be attracted together, so that the cover can be closed with respect to the main shell. To open the cover, the user has to pull the cover by applying a force to overcome the magnetic force of the magnetic member.
- These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter in which there are illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.

FIG. 7 shows that the cover structure in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention is attached to the case body of a luggage case. - The present invention will be clearer from the following description when viewed together with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.
- Referring to
FIGS. 1-7 , a cover structure for a luggage case in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention is to be connected to a case body B of the luggage case, and comprises: amain shell 10, acover 20, at least one magnetic member M, and twopivot members 30. - The
main shell 10 includes an outerannular edge 11 and an outerstepped surface 13. The outerannular edge 11 is provided with a connectinghole 12. Themain shell 10 is connected to the case body B. Thecover 20 includes apivot end 21 to be pivoted to themain shell 10, and further includes a connectingperipheral edge 22 which is located toward the outerannular edge 11. The connectingperipheral edge 22 is provided with a connectinglatch 221 to be inserted in the connectinghole 12. Thecover 20 includes aninner surface 201 and an oppositeouter surface 202. On theouter surface 202 is formed acavity 23, so that a user can insert finger into thecavity 23 to pull thecover 20 to make thecover 20 pivot about thepivot end 21 to rotate with respect to themain shell 10. - The magnetic member M is located between the outer
annular edge 11 and the connectingperipheral edge 22, and can be disposed on the outerannular edge 11. When the magnetic member M is disposed on the outerannular edge 11, the connectingperipheral edge 22 is made of metal. The magnetic member M can be disposed on the connectingperipheral edge 22, and when the magnetic member M is disposed on the connectingperipheral edge 22, the outerannular edge 11 is made of metal. When there are more than two magnetic members M, the magnetic members M can be disposed on the outerannular edge 11 and the connectingperipheral edge 22 simultaneously, and the magnetic members M are preferably arranged in a spaced apart manner. - The two
pivot members 30 each include apivot 31, and a first connectingportion 32 and a second connectingportion 33 which extend from thepivot 31. The first connectingportion 32 is fixed to themain shell 10, and the second connectingportion 33 is fixed to thecover 20. In this embodiment, the first connectingportion 32 is fixed to the outerannular edge 11, and the second connectingportion 33 is fixed to theinner surface 201 of thepivot end 21 of thecover 20. In another embodiment as shown inFIG. 6 , the first connectingportion 32 is fixed to the outerstepped surface 13, and the second connectingportion 33 is fixed to theouter surface 202 of thepivot end 21 of thecover 20. - With the at least one magnetic member M disposed between the outer
annular edge 11 of themain shell 10 and the connectingperipheral edge 22 of thecover 20, the outerannular edge 11 of themain shell 10 and the connectingperipheral edge 22 of thecover 20 can be attracted together, so that thecover 20 can be closed with respect to themain shell 10. To open thecover 20, the user has to pull thecover 20 by applying a force to overcome the magnetic force of the magnetic member M. - While we have shown and described various embodiments in accordance with the present invention, it is clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
