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 travel bag 1 for a golf equipment. The bag 1 has a rear part 6 provided with castors 2 and in the bottom part a stiffening plate 4 and without said plate in the front part 6 of the bag 1. Under the travel bag 1 at the other end of said stiffening plate 4 a second pair of castors 5 are placed so that in the horizontal position of the bag 1 the rear part 6 of the bag 1 is supported by the castors 2 and 5 and the front part 6 of the bag 1 is supported onto the ground. For trailing the bag 1 behind the front part 7 of the bag 1 can be pulled off the ground using grab element 3 so, that the bag 1 can trailed on castors 2 and 5 behind the user.

Systems and methods for luggage systems are provided. The luggage systems and methods include a luggage housing assembly having a front housing portion and a rear housing portion connected to the front housing portion by a hinge. The luggage systems and methods include a set of wheels mounted to the luggage housing assembly. The luggage systems and methods can include a rechargeable power supply assembly that includes a housing component and a battery module casing configured to receive a rechargeable battery module. The luggage systems and methods can include a compression pad subsystem configured to compress contents of the luggage within the housing portions.

An adjustable size suitcase includes a main body having a top section, a middle section and a bottom section that define a hollow interior space. A telescopic handle extends upward from the main body and a plurality of omnidirectional wheels are positioned along the bottom end of the main body. A frame is positioned within the hollow interior space of the main body and includes an upper frame assembly, a middle frame assembly and a lower frame assembly. The upper frame assembly includes a plurality of vertical frame members that are slidingly engaged to complementary located lower vertical frame members to permit vertical movement of the upper frame assembly relative to the lower frame assembly. An actuator is mechanically linked to a plurality of latches positioned within the bottom ends of each upper vertical frame member to selectively transition the suitcase between a first, second and third size.

A luggage system with a wardrobe element which extends from the luggage portion and supports a crossbar for hanging clothing or costumes. An arm extends away from the crossbar for supporting a privacy curtain. The wardrobe element is secured within the sides of the luggage, and the opening of the luggage can be opened and closed without needing to store the wardrobe element. In a preferred embodiment, the wardrobe element includes two pairs of structural legs extending out of respective pockets within the luggage, the legs terminating at the crossbar.

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.

A wheeled carrier including a rigid base having a bottom side, opposing front and rear sides extending upward from the bottom side, and opposing first and second lateral sides extending upward from the bottom side, a body extending upward from the base defining an interior between the base and an apex of the body, a pair of wheels connected to the base, the pair of wheels configured to rotate about an axis proximate to the rear side of the base, a telescoping handle assembly including two telescoping legs, each having a proximal end attached to the base and a distal end, the telescoping handle assembly including a handle connecting the distal ends of the two telescoping legs and extending over the apex of the body, and a pair of backpack straps attached to the body.

A method for manufacturing a quadrangular shell having five faces and non-developable trihedral connectors between the faces. Plies having continuous fibers are cut to cover the five faces of the shell outside of the trihedral connector zones. Four connector components consolidated in the shape of the trihedral connectors are obtained. Each of the components includes an integration zone between the plies. Plies are positioned and laid up. The four consolidated components are inserted in the trihedral connection zones by inserting the integration zones between two plies to form an assembly obtain a preform. The preform is placed in a tool and the consolidation of the stack of fibrous plies is performed by subjecting the assembly to a predetermined pressure/temperature cycle.

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 of specific cross-section is mounted to be movable in translation relative to a fixed sheath and a locking/unlocking system. The locking/unlocking system includes a bushing and partly housed in the elongate member. In a first position of the grip portion, the locking/unlocking system is configured to compress the bushing such that it is tightly applied against an inside face of the sheath to keep the elongate member fixed in the sheath, thus locking the handle in a selected position. In a second position of the grip portion, the locking/unlocking system is configured to decompress the bushing to enable a free sliding of the elongate member in the sheath, thus unlocking the handle.
