Description

[Detailed description of the invention] lockable suitcase A suitcase with connected halves that can be locked with a suitable locking mechanism is useful for traveling, for example. Widely used as an attache case or an attache case.

This type of suitcase cannot be opened by unauthorized persons. As such, they are usually protected by one or more safety locks. The safety lock For example, locks that can be unlocked with a key or dials that allow you to adjust certain combinations of numbers. There are so-called rearrangement type locks that are unlocked by cents.

However, the above suitcase can still be opened by someone else with some effort. It is possible. This is because the lock is either a key or an adjustment dial. Because it is operated by someone else, no one knows exactly where the lock is on your suitcase. It is possible to break the lock and open the suitcase by applying a suitable tool to the location. That's why. Secondly, the keyhole or adjustment tab has a negative impact on the overall aesthetic impression. effect. In the above permutation two tablets, it is not possible to cent the above combination. Not only is it difficult, but it also takes a certain amount of time. Furthermore, with the suitcase opened, If you accidentally or intentionally change the setting of the adjustment dial and then forget the correct setting. This often happens and in such cases it is difficult to get the lock ready for use again. It takes a lot of effort to get there.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that a suitcase is opened without permission by another person. The above-mentioned protective measures ensure that the suitcase retains its overall aesthetic mark. The goal is to ensure that elephants are not harmed.

According to the present invention, the locking mechanism inside the suitcase of the type described above can be remotely controlled. This problem can be solved by operating the i1 layer.

That way, the locks on the two halves of the suitcase could be stolen by unauthorized persons. The position of the locking mechanism formed by the locking and closing parts cannot be recognized from the outside. Next, the keyhole or The aesthetic form is not compromised by a locking mechanism such as a regular dial. further outside The pig has a very novel shape and design with no closure means visible from the outside. becomes possible.

Includes a locking mechanism. According to the cough machine, the suit uses a known remote control device. You can lock the case very easily.

Other aspects of the present invention include electromagnetically operated locks or spring locks.

These locks also allow you to lock your suitcase very easily. .

According to yet another aspect of the present invention, a single remote control device can control multiple suits. Separate locks on the case can be locked independently of each other. Therefore, one control device You can use it to open and close multiple suitcases. In addition, the present invention is based on f It is not used only for suitcases in a narrow sense. In this application, The term "suitcase" means bags and containers of all kinds.

Further details, features, advantages and possibilities of use can be clearly understood from the exemplary embodiments shown in the drawings. It becomes clear. These will be explained in detail below.

FIG. 1 is a side view of the suitcase of the present invention.

FIG. 2 shows another side of the suitcase of the present invention.

FIG. 3 shows a locking mechanism that can be used in the suitcase of the present invention.

FIG. 1 shows a suitcase 10 of the present invention. The outer periphery of the side of the suitcase is reinforced. A ring 20 is provided around the periphery, and a handle is attached to the ring. Reinforcement ring above The grip improves the stability of the suitcase 10 when carrying it, and allows a precise fit of the two halves 12.14 into each other in the closed state of the housing. The reinforcement The bag 20 is divided along the dividing line n of the two halves of the suitcase. .

In the closed state above, the hinge that connects the two halves of the suitcase when opened Neither the lock mechanism nor the four-lock mechanism are visible from the outside. one or more locks 40 It is arranged on the reinforcing ring 20 of the case 10. Suitcase half 12.1 Inside one of the bolts 4, a bolt 50 is provided with its holding mO and an electromagnetic 7no. It is. The other half 12.14 is provided with a fastener 80. Figure 3 is above The lock 40 is shown in a closed state. In the lock, an axially movable bolt 50 It is urged to the limit position by the spring. In this position, the bolt 50 is It is locked in the recess of the fastener 80 to prevent the suitcase from being opened. Sho bolt It is preferable to form an inclined surface 55 at the tip of the suitcase, which allows the suitcase to be closed. The lock can be made to lock automatically when the force is applied.

When a suitable power source is connected to the electromagnet O, the bolt 50 will resist the force of the blade. By being pulled, the lock can be removed and the suitcase can be opened.

The axis of the lock 40' & L bolt is parallel or perpendicular to the dividing line n of the reinforcing ring 20. It may be installed so that The power supply to the electromagnet is controlled by a known method. can be controlled. The IHBIL, for example, if the external transmitter is precisely determined in advance. The transmitter installed inside the suitcase will respond to this signal. This can be done by infrared remote wounding means provided. The above receiver is of the above type The WO is connected to a power source (not shown) by known means. The signal from the transmitter is It may also be a series of signals that are precisely determined in advance.

It is of course also possible to operate the lock 40 in other ways. For example, a suitcase By installing an inductive transmitter or a capacitive transmitter at any location, the signal can be sent to the receiver. Can be sent. Furthermore, a precisely predetermined signal or series of signals can be plugged into the Connect the electromagnetic E70 to a power source (not shown) by sending it to the receiver via a connection. Both are possible.

The number of locks 40 to be installed in the reinforcement ring 20 described above depends on the specific usage condition. stipulate.
