A base (6) under the front edge provides vertical stability when at rest. The bag is provided with two flexible straps on its back (1b) to enable it to be carried on a user's back. A flexible fabric flap (8) is fixed by one of its edges (8a) to the base of the luggage back, the edge acting as a hinge. In the wheeling position the flap is held by its opposite edge (8b) on the luggage back by two press button flaps (9). In this position the folding flap covers the lower portion of the straps and keeps them fastened.

Description

La présente invention concerne un bagage roulant muni de roulettes et d'une poignée de traction pour son transport en position de roulage, et destiné notamment à transporter des effets personnels par exemple.The present invention relates to rolling luggage provided with rollers and a pull handle for transporting it in the rolling position, and intended in particular for transporting personal effects for example.

Les bagages roulants actuellement connus ne sont pas adaptés au transport sur les terrains accidentés, tels que les sentiers de montagnes, les escaliers ou les passages inondés par exemple.The currently known rolling luggage is not suitable for transport on uneven terrain, such as mountain paths, stairs or flooded passages for example.

En effet, les roulettes sont généralement petites et assez fragiles, ce qui se traduit par :

  • un manque de stabilité du bagage sur les terrains accidentés,
  • un risque accru de rupture des roulettes en raison des nombreux chocs sur les marches des escaliers ou les aspérités du terrain, et
  • le mouillage du bagage lors de la traversée d'une voie d'eau.
In fact, the casters are generally small and quite fragile, which results in:
  • a lack of luggage stability on uneven terrain,
  • an increased risk of breakage of the casters due to the numerous shocks on the steps of the stairs or the roughness of the ground, and
  • wetting of baggage when crossing a waterway.

En conséquence, on utilise souvent dans ces conditions la poignée de transport manuel qui est généralement prévue sur les bagages, mais cette poignée est inadaptée pour les trajets longs ou lorsque le bagage est lourd.Consequently, the manual carrying handle which is generally provided on luggage is often used under these conditions, but this handle is unsuitable for long journeys or when the luggage is heavy.

La présente invention a donc pour but d'éliminer les inconvénients précités et de proposer un nouveau bagage roulant qui est adapté au transport sur tous les types de terrains.The present invention therefore aims to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks and to propose a new rolling luggage which is suitable for transport on all types of terrain.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un bagage roulant muni de roulettes et d'une poignée de traction pour son transport en position de roulage, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend des moyens pour transformer le bagage en sac à dos.To this end, the subject of the invention is a rolling bag provided with rollers and a pull handle for its transport in the rolling position, characterized in that it includes means for transforming the baggage into a backpack.

Dans un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, les moyens précités comportent au moins un panneau rabattable fixé par l'un de ses bords sur le bagage, ledit bord formant charnière pour rabattre le panneau sous les roulettes en position de portage, et des moyens pour maintenir le panneau dans cette position.In a particular embodiment of the invention, the aforementioned means comprise at least one folding panel fixed by one of its edges to the luggage, said edge forming a hinge for folding the panel under the rollers in the carrying position, and means for holding the panel in this position.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, les moyens précités comportent des bretelles de portage sur le dos du bagage, au moins un panneau rabattable fixé par l'un de ses bords sur le bagage, ledit bord formant charnière pour rabattre au moins partiellement le panneau sur les bretelles en position de roulage, et des moyens pour maintenir le panneau dans cette position.According to another embodiment, the aforementioned means include carrying straps on the back of the luggage, at least one folding panel fixed by one of its edges to the luggage, said edge forming a hinge to at least partially fold the panel over the straps in the rolling position, and means for holding the panel in this position.

On peut également prévoir que les moyens précités comportent des bretelles de portage sur le dos du bagage et au moins un panneau rabattable fixé par l'un de ses bords sur le bagage, ledit bord formant charnière pour rabattre au moins partiellement le panneau sur les bretelles en position de roulage et/ou pour rabattre le panneau sous les roulettes en position de portage, et des moyens pour maintenir le panneau dans ces deux positions.It is also possible to provide that the aforementioned means include carrying straps on the back of the luggage and at least one folding panel fixed by one of its edges to the luggage, said edge forming a hinge for at least partially folding the panel on the straps in the rolling position and / or to fold the panel under the rollers in the carrying position, and means for holding the panel in these two positions.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens de transformation précités comprennent un seul panneau dont le bord formant charnière est fixé à la base du dos du bagage pour être rabattable entre les positions de roulage et de portage précitées.According to another characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned transformation means comprise a single panel whose edge forming a hinge is fixed to the base of the back of the luggage so as to be foldable between the aforementioned rolling and carrying positions.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le panneau précité est rabattable au moins partiellement sur la poignée de traction en position de roulage.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned panel is foldable at least partially on the traction handle in the rolling position.

Le panneau précité peut être rembourré pour protéger les roulettes ou améliorer le confort de l'utilisateur en position de portage.The aforementioned panel can be padded to protect the rollers or improve the comfort of the user in the carrying position.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la poignée de traction constitue une armature de renfort dans le dos du bagage.According to another characteristic of the invention, the pull handle constitutes a reinforcing reinforcement in the back of the luggage.

L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres buts, caractéristiques, détails et avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement au cours de la description explicative qui va suivre de deux modes de réalisation particuliers actuellement préférés de l'invention, donnés uniquement à titre illustratif et non limitatif, en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés, dans lesquels :The invention will be better understood and other objects, characteristics, details and advantages thereof will appear more clearly during the explanatory description which follows of two particular presently preferred embodiments of the invention, given solely by way of illustrative and not limiting, with reference to the appended schematic drawings, in which:

La figure 1 est une vue en perspective frontale du bagage roulant de l'invention, en position de roulage.Figure 1 is a front perspective view of the rolling luggage of the invention, in the rolling position.

La figure 2 est une vue en perspective arrière du bagage de la figure 1.FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the baggage of FIG. 1.

La figure 3 est une vue partielle et analogue à la figure 2, mais représentant le bagage dans une position intermédiaire entre la position de roulage et la position de portage.Figure 3 is a partial view similar to Figure 2, but showing the luggage in an intermediate position between the rolling position and the carrying position.

La figure 4 est une vue analogue à la figure 2, mais représentant le bagage en position de portage.Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2, but showing the luggage in the carrying position.

La figure 5 est une vue analogue à la figure 2, mais représentant une variante de réalisation du bagage de l'invention.Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 2, but showing an alternative embodiment of the baggage of the invention.

La figure 6 est une vue analogue à la figure 4, mais représentant le mode de réalisation de la figure 5.FIG. 6 is a view similar to FIG. 4, but showing the embodiment of FIG. 5.

Selon l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur la figure 1, le bagage roulant de l'invention est constitué d'une enveloppe ou sac souple 1, par exemple en toile, fermé par une fermeture à glissière 2 ou analogue.According to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the rolling luggage of the invention consists of an envelope or flexible bag 1, for example of canvas, closed by a zipper 2 or the like.

L'enveloppe 1 est munie par exemple d'une poche avant 3, d'une poignée télescopique de traction 4 sur son dos, et de deux roulettes 5 à sa base ou fond 1a.The envelope 1 is provided for example with a front pocket 3, a telescopic pull handle 4 on its back, and two rollers 5 at its base or bottom 1a.

Les roulettes 5 sont fixées ici sur le bord postérieur de la base 1a de l'enveloppe du sac 1, mais on pourrait prévoir en variante les roulettes décalées vers l'avant pour améliorer le confort de l'utilisateur en position de portage.The rollers 5 are fixed here on the rear edge of the base 1a of the envelope of the bag 1, but one could alternatively provide the rollers offset forward to improve the comfort of the user in the carrying position.

On peut prévoir un piètement 6 sous le bord avant de la base 1a du bagage pour assurer sa stabilité verticale en position de repos.One can provide a base 6 under the front edge of the base 1a of the luggage to ensure its vertical stability in the rest position.

En se référant maintenant plus particulièrement à la figure 2, on voit que l'enveloppe 1 est munie sur son dos 1b de deux sangles ou bretelles souples ou élastiques 7 pour le portage du bagage sur le dos d'un utilisateur.Referring now more particularly to FIG. 2, it can be seen that the envelope 1 is provided on its back 1b with two flexible or elastic straps or suspenders 7 for carrying the luggage on the back of a user.

Un rabat souple en toile 8 est fixé par l'un 8a de ses bords au bas du dos 1b du bagage, de façon que ce bord 8a agisse comme une charnière pour le rabat 8.A flexible canvas flap 8 is fixed by one 8a of its edges to the bottom of the back 1b of the luggage, so that this edge 8a acts as a hinge for the flap 8.

Dans la position de roulage représentée sur la figure 2, on voit que le rabat 8 est maintenu par son bord opposé 8b sur le dos 1b du bagage au moyen de deux languettes à bouton-pression 9.In the rolling position shown in FIG. 2, it can be seen that the flap 8 is held by its opposite edge 8b on the back 1b of the luggage by means of two press-button tabs 9.

Dans cette position, le rabat 8 recouvre partiellement les bretelles 7, notamment leur portion inférieure, et les retient prisonnières.In this position, the flap 8 partially covers the straps 7, in particular their lower portion, and holds them captive.

Ainsi, on évite que les bretelles 7 viennent accrocher des objets extérieurs ou se coincer dans les roulettes 5, en position de roulage.Thus, it is avoided that the straps 7 come to hang external objects or get stuck in the rollers 5, in the rolling position.

Deux bandes tissées 10 et 11 qui s'agrippent mutuellement par contact sont respectivement fixées sous la base ou fond 1a du bagage et sur la face externe du rabat 8 en position érigée de roulage.Two woven strips 10 and 11 which grip each other by contact are respectively fixed under the base or bottom 1a of the luggage and on the external face of the flap 8 in the erected rolling position.

La bande tissée 11 est fixée au voisinage du bord 8b du rabat 8 de manière à venir en contact en position rabattue du panneau 8 sous les roulettes 5 avec l'autre bande tissée 10.The woven strip 11 is fixed in the vicinity of the edge 8b of the flap 8 so as to come into contact in the folded position of the panel 8 under the rollers 5 with the other woven strip 10.

Bien entendu, les roulettes 5 sont disposées entre la bande tissée 10 et le bord 8a du rabat 8 de façon que ce dernier puisse les recouvrir en position de portage.Of course, the rollers 5 are arranged between the woven strip 10 and the edge 8a of the flap 8 so that the latter can cover them in the carrying position.

On pourrait, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, intervertir les moyens de maintien du rabat en position de roulage et en position de portage, ou bien les remplacer par tout autre moyen analogue remplissant la même fonction.One could, without departing from the scope of the invention, reverse the means for holding the flap in the rolling position and in the carrying position, or else replace them by any other similar means fulfilling the same function.

En se référant à la figure 3, on voit sur le rabat 8 des parties 9a complémentaires des boutons de pression 9.Referring to FIG. 3, we see on the flap 8 complementary parts 9a of the pressure buttons 9.

Un coussin rembourré 12 est attaché sur le dos 1b du bagage pour recouvrir au moins partiellement l'armature 13 de la poignée télescopique 4, les bretelles 7 passant à l'extérieur de ce coussin.A padded cushion 12 is attached to the back 1b of the luggage to at least partially cover the frame 13 of the telescopic handle 4, the straps 7 passing outside of this cushion.

L'armature 13 est constituée ici de deux tubes cylindriques parallèles dans lequels coulisse la poignée 4 en forme de U inversé.The frame 13 here consists of two parallel cylindrical tubes in which the handle 4 slides in the shape of an inverted U.

L'armature 13 constitue ainsi une armature de renfort et de maintien du bagage, qui est doublée lorsque la poignée 4 est rétractée dans les tubes 13.The frame 13 thus constitutes a reinforcement and a baggage holding frame, which is doubled when the handle 4 is retracted into the tubes 13.

On voit sur la figure 4 que les bretelles 7 sont fixées à leur extrémité supérieure entre les deux tubes 13 et à leur extrémité inférieure au bas des bords latéraux du dos 1b du bagage, mais l'invention n'est pas limitée à ces points d'ancrage.We see in Figure 4 that the straps 7 are fixed at their upper end between the two tubes 13 and at their lower end at the bottom of the side edges of the back 1b of the luggage, but the invention is not limited to these points d anchor.

Deux taquets de verrouillage 14 sont prévus au sommet de l'armature 13 pour verrouiller la poignée 4 en position rétractée telle que représentée sur la figure 4, en position érigée maximale telle que représentée sur la figure 2, ou dans toute autre position intermédiaire.Two locking tabs 14 are provided at the top of the frame 13 to lock the handle 4 in the retracted position as shown in Figure 4, in the maximum erected position as shown in Figure 2, or in any other intermediate position.

On voit sur la figure 4, que le rabat 8 recouvre complètement les roulettes 5 dans sa position rabattue sous la base 1a du bagage, libérant simultanément les bretelles 7 en vue du portage du bagage.It can be seen in FIG. 4 that the flap 8 completely covers the rollers 5 in its folded position under the base 1a of the luggage, simultaneously releasing the shoulder straps 7 for carrying the luggage.

Bien entendu, on pourrait prévoir que le rabat 8 recouvre également le piètement 6 dans cette position.Of course, one could provide that the flap 8 also covers the base 6 in this position.

On pourrait aussi, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, prévoir plusieurs rabats remplissant indépendamment les uns des autres les différentes fonctions du rabat unique 8 représenté ici.We could also, without departing from the scope of the invention, provide several flaps independently of one another filling the different functions of the single flap 8 shown here.

Dans la variante de réalisation représentée sur les figures 5 et 6, on voit que le rabat 18 est fixé sur le dos 1b du sac par l'intermédiaire d'une fermeture à glissière 19, au lieu de la combinaison languettes 9 et boutons-pression 9a.In the variant embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, it can be seen that the flap 18 is fixed to the back 1b of the bag by means of a closure with slide 19, instead of the combination of tabs 9 and snaps 9a.

L'une 19a des deux bandes dentées de la fermeture à glissière 19 est fixée au moins en partie mais de préférence sur toute la périphérie libre du rabat 18, c'est-à-dire sur toute sa périphérie à l'exception du bord formant charnière 8a, alors que l'autre bande dentée 19b est fixée directement sur le dos 1b du sac ou par l'intermédiaire du coussin rembourré 12, en un emplacement correspondant à la péripherie du panneau 18 lorsque celui-ci est rabattu sur le dos du sac en position de roulage.One 19a of the two toothed bands of the zipper 19 is fixed at least in part but preferably over the entire free periphery of the flap 18, that is to say over its entire periphery except for the edge forming hinge 8a, while the other toothed strip 19b is fixed directly to the back 1b of the bag or by means of the padded cushion 12, in a location corresponding to the periphery of the panel 18 when the latter is folded down on the back of the bag in rolling position.

Les bretelles 7 sont fixées ici au dos du sac dans l'espace circonscrit par la bande dentée 19b de la fermeture à glissière et le bord articulé 8a, de façon que lorsque le rabat est en position de roulage, les bretelles soient complètement logées et enfermées entre le rabat et le dos du sac par la fermeture à glissière. Ceci facilite le rangement des bretelles et élimine tout risque de coincement des bretelles avec les roulettes lors du roulage. Dans cette position, le rabat 8 peut également constituer une poche de rangement pour d'autres objets.The straps 7 are attached here to the back of the bag in the space circumscribed by the toothed band 19b of the zipper and the hinged edge 8a, so that when the flap is in the rolling position, the straps are completely housed and locked between the flap and the back of the bag by the zipper. This facilitates the storage of the straps and eliminates any risk of jamming of the straps with the casters during rolling. In this position, the flap 8 can also constitute a storage pocket for other objects.

Bien entendu, on pourrait également prévoir que la fermeture à glissière serve à fixer le panneau 18 sous le fond 1a du bagage à la place des bandes tissées 10 et 11.Of course, provision could also be made for the zipper to be used to secure the panel 18 under the bottom 1a of the luggage in place of the woven strips 10 and 11.

On va maintenant brièvement décrire le fonctionnement du bagage de l'invention en référence aux figures 2 à 4.We will now briefly describe the operation of the baggage of the invention with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

En position de roulage, représentée sur la figure 2, on place les bretelles 7 sensiblement au milieu du dos 1b du bagage de façon que le rabat 8 les recouvre au moins partiellement et les retienne emprisonnées lorsqu'il est retenu sur le dos 1b du bagage par les languettes 9.In the rolling position, shown in FIG. 2, the straps 7 are placed substantially in the middle of the back 1b of the luggage so that the flap 8 covers them at least partially and keeps them trapped when it is retained on the back 1b of the luggage by the tongues 9.

Le rabat 8 est retenu suffisamment haut sur le dos 1b du bagage pour que sa partie inférieure ne puisse pas venir se coincer dans les roulettes 5 qui sont ainsi libres de rouler.The flap 8 is retained high enough on the back 1b of the luggage so that its lower part cannot get stuck in the rollers 5 which are thus free to roll.

On règle aussi la longueur de la poignée de traction 4 en la faisant coulisser dans l'armature 13 et on la verrouille dans la position sélectionnée grâce aux taquets 14.The length of the pull handle 4 is also adjusted by sliding it in the frame 13 and it is locked in the selected position by means of the tabs 14.

La poignée 4 et son armature 13 sont représentées ici avec une structure à double tube, mais on peut changer sa structure sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, par exemple en prévoyant une structure monotube.The handle 4 and its frame 13 are shown here with a double tube structure, but its structure can be changed without departing from the scope of the invention, for example by providing a monotube structure.

Au sens de l'invention, la poignée de traction 4 peut servir aussi bien à tirer le bagage ou à le pousser.Within the meaning of the invention, the pull handle 4 can be used both to pull the luggage or to push it.

Le bagage est alors prêt pour un usage comme bagage roulant.The luggage is then ready for use as rolling luggage.

Lorsque l'on souhaite porter le bagage sur son dos, on détache les languettes à bouton-pression 9 du rabat 8, comme illustré sur la figure 3, ce qui a pour effet de libérer les bretelles 7.When it is desired to carry the luggage on its back, the snap tabs 9 are detached from the flap 8, as illustrated in FIG. 3, which has the effect of releasing the shoulder straps 7.

On rabat ensuite le panneau 8 suivant la flèche F sous la base la de manière à recouvrir les roulettes 5, par rotation autour du bord formant charnière 8a.The panel 8 is then folded down along the arrow F under the base 1a so as to cover the rollers 5, by rotation around the edge forming a hinge 8a.

Le rabat 8 est alors retenu sous la base 1a par les bandes tissées 10 et 11 qui coopèrent ensemble.The flap 8 is then retained under the base 1a by the woven strips 10 and 11 which cooperate together.

Ainsi, les roulettes 5 sont protégées de toute interaction avec l'extérieur et notamment avec le dos de l'utilisateur. Le rabat 8 permet d'éviter que les roulettes, qui ont été en contact avec le sol, salissent le dos de l'utilisateur. Le rabat constitue également un rembourrage protégeant le dos de l'utilisateur de la gêne ou des blessures eventuelles provoquées par les roulettes en position de portage.Thus, the rollers 5 are protected from any interaction with the outside and in particular with the user's back. The flap 8 makes it possible to prevent the rollers, which have been in contact with the ground, from dirtying the user's back. The flap also constitutes a padding protecting the user's back from discomfort or possible injuries caused by the rollers in the carrying position.

On peut alors rétracter la poignée 4 comme illustré sur la figure 4 et la verrouiller dans cette position avec les taquets 14, bien que cela ne soit pas indispensable.We can then retract the handle 4 as illustrated in Figure 4 and lock it in this position with the lugs 14, although this is not essential.

Le bagage est alors prêt pour être porté sur le dos d'un utilisateur.The luggage is then ready to be carried on the back of a user.

Pour repasser à la position de roulage, il suffit d'effectuer les étapes précédentes dans l'ordre inverse.To return to the driving position, simply carry out the previous steps in reverse order.

L'invention a été décrite en liaison avec un bagage souple, mais elle peut s'appliquer aussi aux bagages rigides.The invention has been described in connection with flexible luggage, but it can also be applied to rigid luggage.

L'invention est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation particulier décrit ici et elle comprend tous les équivalents des moyens techniques décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci entrent dans le cadre des revendications qui suivent.The invention is in no way limited to the particular embodiment described here and it includes all the equivalents of the technical means described as well as their combinations if these fall within the scope of the claims which follow.
