Abstract
A cover structure for a luggage case is to be connected to a case body of the luggage case, and includes: a main shell, a cover, at least one magnetic member, and two pivot members. With the at least one magnetic member disposed between the outer annular edge of the main shell and the connecting peripheral edge of the cover, the outer annular edge of the main shell and the connecting peripheral edge of the cover can be attracted together, so that the cover can be closed with respect to the main shell. To open the cover, the user has to pull the cover by applying a force to overcome the magnetic force of the magnetic member.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A cover structure for a luggage case being connected to a case body of the luggage case, and comprising:
a main shell including an outer annular edge and being connected to the case body; a cover including a pivot end to be pivoted to the main shell, and further including a connecting peripheral edge which is located toward the outer annular edge; at least one magnetic member located between the outer annular edge and the connecting peripheral edge; and two pivot members each including a pivot, and a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion which extend from the pivot, wherein the first connecting portion is fixed to the main shell, and the second connecting portion is fixed to the cover.
2 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the outer annular edge is provided with a connecting hole, and the connecting peripheral edge is provided with a connecting latch to be inserted in the connecting hole.
3 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover includes an inner surface, an opposite outer surface, and a cavity formed in the outer surface.
4 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnetic member is disposed on the outer annular edge, and the connecting peripheral edge is made of metal.
5 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnetic member is disposed on the connecting peripheral edge, and the outer annular edge is made of metal.
6 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein there are more than two magnetic members, and the magnetic members are disposed on the outer annular edge and the connecting peripheral edge.
7 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first connecting portion is fixed to the outer annular edge, and the second connecting portion is fixed to the inner surface of the pivot end of the cover.
8 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the main shell further includes an outer stepped surface, the first connecting portion is fixed to the outer stepped surface, and the second connecting portion is fixed to the outer surface of the pivot end of the cover.
9 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 4 , wherein there are more than two magnetic members, and the magnetic members are arranged in a spaced apart manner.
10 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 5 , wherein there are more than two magnetic members, and the magnetic members are arranged in a spaced apart manner.
11 . The cover structure as claimed in claim 6 , wherein there are more than two magnetic members, and the magnetic members are arranged in a spaced apart manner.Cited by (0)
