The disclosure provides a wheeled container assembly (10) and a handle assembly (20) for a container, the handle assembly comprising a pair of pa ra Nelly disposed leg members (24, 26), each leg member comprising a first leg segment (32) articulable to the container, a second leg segment (34) telescopically displaceable with respect to said first leg segment, and a third leg segment (36) telescopically displaceable with respect to said second leg segment; a bridge member (40) rigidly extending between an upper portion the first leg segments, and a manipulating handle (42) rigidly extending between a top portion of the third leg segments; the leg members are configurable between a locked extended position and a locked retracted position; a primary locking mechanism (120); and a secondary locking mechanism (50); and wherein retracting the third leg segment into the second leg segment is facilitated after retraction of the second leg segment into the first leg segment.

The present invention provides portable suitcases with an adjustable and retractable pulling handle.

A portable tennis equipment bag includes a bag body that has an internal frame that supports the shape of the body and which further provides support for a plurality of extendible legs that can extend from the bottom of the bag. The extendible legs can also collapse inside of the bag body. Each of the extendible legs can be attached, at their lower ends, to an lower shelf member at the bottom of the body of the bag, outside of the body of the bag. As a result, when the extendible legs are extended, the lower shelf portion is separated from the body of the bag and sits beneath the body of the bag, attached to the legs. Rolling mechanisms can be provided at the bottom of the lower shelf portion to allow the bag to be moved about across a surface such as a tennis court.

Disclosed is an offset handle for telescopic frames provides for convenient and safe control of the telescopes, increased range of the frame extension, and improved portability when folded. The handle includes a hollow C-shaped housing configured for attaching to a pair of interlatching telescoping poles, an actuator configured to move in the housing laterally relative to the poles and biased to an initial position, a two pronged rocker having a crank, said two pronged rocker mounted pivotally within the housing and configured for engaging latching mechanisms of each of the poles, a ramp formed within the housing, and a pusher attached pivotally to said actuator. Said pusher configured to move between said ramp and said crank of said two pronged rocker.

An item of luggage includes an extendable and retractable handle mechanism having a handle axle to which a grip portion is mechanically connected. An elongate member is mounted to be movable in translation relative to a fixed sheath. A locking/unlocking system is mechanically connected to elongate member and at least partly housed in the sheath. An interface system includes a cam journal and is configured to actuate the locking/unlocking system by the handle axle. The cam journal includes a first end mechanically connected to the handle axle and a second end, opposite the first end, with a transmission tip having a contact face. In a first position of the grip portion, the locking/unlocking system is configured to lock the handle in a selected position. In a second position of the grip portion, obtained by the rotation of the grip portion, the locking/unlocking system is configured to unlock the handle.

The disclosure herein includes an expandable luggage assembly, which expandable luggage assembly may include: an upper shell having a plurality of sidewalls; a lower shell having a plurality of sidewalls removably coupled to one more of the plurality of sidewalls of the upper shell; a shelf coupled to the upper shell; a plurality of wheels coupled to the lower shell; and two handles, each handle of the two handles comprising: a crossbar disposed above the upper shell; a first tube coupled to the crossbar and slidably coupled to the upper shell; a second tube slidably coupled to the first tube and capable of being abutted against the upper shell; a third tube slidably coupled to the second tube and coupled to the lower shell.

In one embodiment, a luggage case is disclosed. The luggage case includes a main body including a lid shell and a base shell. The lid shell and the base shell are hingedly coupled to one another and selectively closable by a closure mechanism. The luggage case further includes a primary recess, the primary recess defining a bottom wall. A secondary recess is formed in the bottom wall of the primary recess and an attachment member is positioned in the secondary recess.

A wheeled luggage case comprises (a) a storage chamber, (b) a cover defining an opening on at least one side of the storage chamber for providing ready access therein and at least two labyrinth axle-free wheels operatively connected to the chamber for towing the case along a ground surface. The labyrinth axle-free wheel comprises an internal rim, an external rim provided with a ground interface, rollers being rotatably disposed within a roller spacer between the internal and external rims in a uniform circumferential manner by means of a spacer and external covers. A labyrinth type dust passage in the wheel is defined by the rims and the external plates mechanically connected to the internal rim.

Luggage having an integrated compression system where at least one vacuum compression bag is provided and secured within the interior space of the luggage. The bag can be compressed by an attached self-contained vacuum assembly removably secured within the luggage, preferably between the handle tube guides. The air outlet opening of the bag can be provided with a valve or coupling for securement to the air entry inlet of the vacuum assembly. The bag can also be removably secured to other areas within the interior of the luggage. An air outlet of the vacuum assembly can be provided with a valve or coupling for securement to an opening in the back wall of the luggage. Alternatively, the valve or coupling can be provided in the back wall opening. Air removed from the compression bag by the vacuum assembly is expelled through the back wall opening, without the use of any exposed hoses. This allows the oversized compression bag as compared to the size of the luggage and the contents stored within the bag to be able to safely contain within the fully closed luggage. The battery for powering the vacuum assembly can be removable while the luggage is fully closed and can also be used to charge other electronic devices.

A universal motorcycle storage case mounting assembly that detachably secures to a motorcycle or other vehicle, allowing a user to safely transport personal belongings to a destination. The mounting assembly utilizes two main components—a base frame and a platform, with a storage case being couplable to the platform, forming a transportable storage case. In order to secure to a motorcycle or other vehicle, the mounting assembly utilizes a triple-locking system, including a base latch bracket that attaches to the motorcycle; a receipt on the platform; and a platform latch bracket, the receipt and the platform latch bracket configured to secure the platform to the base frame. As a result of the locking system, the storage case requires force to detach from the motorcycle, thereby preventing inadvertent detachment. Upon arrival at a destination, a rider can detach the transportable storage case, rather than leave belongings on the motorcycle.
