Abstract

A luggage case includes a case body, a handle, and at least one cable. The handle is retractably connected to the case body and includes a shaft and a hand grip, wherein the shaft has one end connected to the case body and the other end connected to the hand grip. The shaft is retractable to adjust a distance between the hand grip and the case body. The cable has one end connected to the hand grip and the other end connected to the case body. The cable extends and is exposed between the hand grip and the case body when the shaft extends out from the case body. The cable retracts in a winding manner as the shaft retracts to the case body.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A luggage case, comprising:
 a case body;   a handle retractably connected to the case body, the handle including a shaft and a hand grip, wherein one end of the shaft is connected to the case body and the other end of the shaft is connected to the hand grip, the shaft is retractable to adjust a distance between the hand grip and the case body; and   at least one cable having one end connected to the hand grip and the other end connected to the case body; wherein the at least one cable extends and is exposed between the hand grip and the case body when the shaft extends out from the case body, and the at least one cable retracts in a winding manner as the shaft retracts to the case body.   
     
     
         2 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein a portion of the at least one cable is wound in the hand grip or the case body as the handle retracts toward the case body. 
     
     
         3 . The luggage case of  claim 2 , further including a winding wheel disposed in the hand grip, the at least one cable is wound around the winding wheel as the handle retracts toward the case body. 
     
     
         4 . The luggage case of  claim 3 , further including a supporting element disposed in the hand grip, wherein an extending direction of the at least one cable unwound from the winding wheel is changed after passing by the supporting element. 
     
     
         5 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the hand grip further has an opening formed on a side of the hand grip facing the case body to allow the cable to pass therethrough. 
     
     
         6 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cable exposed between the hand grip and the case body is substantially parallel to the shaft and forms a support plane together with the shaft. 
     
     
         7 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the shaft includes two poles disposed side by side, and the at least one cable is disposed between the two poles and spaced from the two poles. 
     
     
         8 . The luggage case of  claim 2 , further including a winding wheel disposed in the case body, the at least one cable is wound around the winding wheel as the handle retracts toward the case body. 
     
     
         9 . The luggage case of  claim 8 , further including a supporting element disposed in the case body, wherein an extending direction of the at least one cable unwound from the winding wheel is changed after passing by the supporting element. 
     
     
         10 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the hand grip further has an opening formed on the case body to allow the cable to pass therethough. 
     
     
         11 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cable is substantially unseeable as the handle retracts to the case body to enable the handle to be in a storage state. 
     
     
         12 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the shaft includes a single pole; the at least one cable is connected to the hand grip near one end of the hand grip that is away from the single pole, and the at least one cable and the single pole form a support plane. 
     
     
         13 . The luggage case of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cable includes multiple cables, and the cables are spaced apart and aligned with the shaft.
