[0002] IMPROVED FOLDING LUGGAGE CASE
[0004] TECHNICAL SECTOR
[0006] This invention has its application within the industry dedicated to the manufacture of luggage racks and automobile accessories.
[0008] The present invention relates to an improved folding luggage box applicable on the roof of motor vehicles. Its obvious purpose is to constitute a totally closed baggage transport nexus that adopts two configurations: unfolded, allowing the cargo to be housed inside, being protected from external agents; folded, it occupies a minimum volume, which allows improving the aerodynamics of the car that carries it when its use is not necessary, as well as facilitating its storage by the user or for commercial distribution purposes.
[0010] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0012] There are numerous rigid luggage boxes on the market that are fixed to the roof of vehicles for the transport of luggage. They occupy the same volume both loaded and empty, so users are forced to disassemble them, when they do not need to use them, to avoid unnecessary repercussions on the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle. It is a time-consuming operation that can be quite cumbersome due to the volume of the chest and the height to which it is attached. The large volume of these roof boxes is also a disadvantage during their transport, storage and distribution by the manufacturer.
[0014] As an alternative that avoids these drawbacks, different designs of folding luggage boxes have been developed where at least the side walls are folding, for example thanks to the use of flexible materials, which present drawbacks due to the lack of rigidity of said side walls: noise and low aerodynamic performance, due to the absence of rigid surfaces that can consistently guide the air flow that circulates around it; and poor safety, as these roof boxes can easily be forced to access its content.
[0016] To solve these problems, the inventor of the present application has presented various designs of rigid folding roof boxes, such as those described in applications U200800984, U201000390, P201230453. Boxes in which the upper face in unfolded configuration is made up of two independent pieces joined by anchoring in the upper part of the box, the rear overlapping the front, present problems of tightness, rigidity and safety, since a small opening when the vehicle is The porta moving at a certain speed can cause the accidental lifting of part of the cover. On the other hand, some folding systems require rubber gaskets or other additional elements to ensure tightness. In some cases, the design of the box implies a high manufacturing cost because, due to its morphology, it requires that at least some of the walls or main parts be manufactured by thermo-injection. The articulation system of the application U200800984 makes it difficult to achieve an aerodynamic design of the hood. Another drawback is the complexity of some of the mechanisms that incorporate the chests, such as the internal joint system that hinders the processes of folding and unfolding the chest described in the application P201230453, or the mobile system for anchoring the side pieces to the piece upper corresponding to application U201000390, which must be operated manually from inside the box.
[0018] In short, there is still a need in this field for a folding luggage box made up of rigid parts that is relatively easy to fold and unfold, with an optimal load capacity, that guarantees protection of the load and prevents it from being thrown in the event collision.
[0020] EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
[0022] In order to avoid or reduce the aforementioned drawbacks, the present invention proposes a folding luggage box that alternates the configurations of the folded and unfolded box by means of the longitudinal displacement of its upper wall, which causes the anchoring or un-anchoring between the walls that configure the hood cover, as will be described in detail throughout this document. This method of anchoring allows a more solid and stable joint between the walls that make up the folding luggage box of the present invention, which optimizes its resistance to impact, since the anchoring of the upper wall with the base or with the rear wall is carried out in the direction of travel so, in case of frontal collision, the inertia of movement of the upper wall would tend to strengthen the union between these pieces. In addition, this anchoring method provides greater security to the hood, since the push of the air with the vehicle in motion makes the walls tend to maintain their configuration, even without being anchored by mistake or accident. This anchoring method has been specially developed for side-opening chests and allows folding and unfolding to be carried out quickly and easily, without the need to manually actuate anchoring elements from the inside. On the other hand, this anchoring method offers the possibility that the front part of the upper wall acquires a higher position in the unfolded box configuration than in the folded box configuration, which allows to give the box a greater capacity and improve its aerodynamic performance. The front part of the upper wall covers the front edge of the base in both configurations to ensure airtightness and prevent the entry of air, which with the vehicle in motion could cause accidental opening. The folding / unfolding method of the invention and the morphology of the walls and the base that make up the cassette aim to make them more economical than thermo-injection, such as thermoforming.
[0024] Some terms that will be used in this document to describe the folding luggage box of the invention are defined below.
[0026] In this document, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms such as "top", "top", "bottom", "bottom", "front", "rear", "rear", "rear", "front" and other similar ones refer to the corresponding geometric positions or directions taking into account the natural orientation of use of the hood fixed to a vehicle, with the base resting horizontally on the roof, where the end where the tip of the Wedge shape in unfolded configuration is the front end and the end where the highest side of the wedge shape is located is the rear end, the term "longitudinal" refers to the direction of travel of the vehicle; and the term "transverse" refers to a direction perpendicular in the horizontal plane to the longitudinal direction, that is, perpendicular to the direction of travel of the vehicle.
[0027] The present invention is directed to a folding luggage box comprising a base, an upper wall, a rear wall and two side walls, which can take different configurations:
[0028] - A folded chest configuration, where the side walls and the rear wall are stacked on the base, essentially parallel to it, within the cavity formed by the top wall and the base.
[0029] - A closed unfolded chest configuration, where the cover, formed by the side walls, the rear wall and the top wall coupled to each other, with the side walls and the rear wall in an essentially vertical position, is attached to the base; Y
[0030] - An open deployed chest configuration, where the chest cover is tilted over one edge of the base, and it is possible to access the interior thereof.
[0032] The foldable luggage box of the invention comprises at least one means for anchoring the base, located at the rear of the base, and at least one means for anchoring the upper wall, located at the rear of the upper wall, which remains anchored to the corresponding anchoring means of the base in the folded chest configuration, to hold the rear parts of the base and the top wall together. It also comprises an anchoring system, located at the front of the box, which alternates a locking state and an unlocking state. In the locked state, the anchoring system holds the front portions of the base and the top wall together to maintain the folded chest configuration. The necessary disengagement between the anchoring means of the upper wall and the base in order to be able to unfold the box is caused by the essentially longitudinal rearward movement of the upper wall, which is not possible with the upper wall attached to the base in the configuration of folded chest. In order for said movement to be possible, the anchoring system adopts the unlocked state, so that the connection between the front parts of the upper wall and the base is released, and said upper wall performs an essentially lifting movement, which allows at its leading edge, exceed the leading edge of the base. In this way it is possible to move the upper wall backwards, which allows the unlocking between the rear parts of the base and the upper wall and the subsequent tilting of the upper wall in the unfolding process.
[0033] In order to keep the walls that make up the cover of the box coupled in the open and closed deployed box configurations, in a preferred embodiment, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises at least one anchoring means of the rear wall, located in the upper part of the rear wall to which, in the closed and open deployed chest configurations, the corresponding top wall anchoring means remains anchored, to hold the top of the rear wall and the rear of the top wall together. To provide a more solid anchoring, it is convenient that the box incorporates at least two means of anchoring the upper wall and their corresponding means of anchoring the base and the rear wall. The anchoring system, in the locked state, keeps the front part of the upper wall attached to the front parts of the side walls and, in the unlocked state, releases the front part of the upper wall to perform an essentially lifting movement , which allows the upper wall to make an essentially longitudinal rearward movement with respect to the rear wall, which causes the release of the anchor between the anchoring means of the upper wall and the rear wall in the process of folding the chest.
[0035] In one embodiment, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises at least one anchoring means on each side wall which, in the closed and open deployed box configurations, remains anchored to its respective anchoring means of the upper wall to hold the roofs together. side walls and top. In order to increase the solidity of the cover, in another embodiment the upper wall comprises anchoring means which, in the unfolded box configuration, remain anchored respectively to the side walls and to the rear wall.
[0037] Preferably, the anchoring means are fixed elements that do not need actuation and the anchoring or unlocking between them occurs simply by the longitudinal movement of the upper wall respectively forward or backward. In the unfolding process, the longitudinal rearward displacement of the upper wall causes the unlocking between the corresponding anchoring means of the upper wall and the base and, after lifting the upper, rear and side walls, the longitudinal displacement towards in front of the upper wall causes the anchoring of the corresponding anchoring means of the upper wall and of the rear wall. In the folding process, the longitudinal rearward displacement of the upper wall causes the disengagement between the corresponding anchoring means of the upper wall and the rear wall and, after the lateral, rear and upper walls are folded down, the longitudinal movement forward of the upper wall causes the anchoring of the corresponding anchoring means of the upper wall and the base.
[0039] Although in one embodiment the front of the top wall is positioned at the same height in the folded and unfolded chest configurations, in a preferred embodiment, the anchoring system, in the locked state, retains the front of the top wall in place. a higher anchoring position in the unfolded chest configuration than the corresponding anchoring position in the folded chest configuration. In both anchoring positions, the front edge of the upper wall covers the front part of the perimeter edge of the base, guaranteeing the tightness of the box. This difference in the height of the front of the top wall in the two configurations makes it possible that the slope of the hood cover is not very pronounced, which allows to increase the capacity of the chest and improve its aerodynamic performance.
[0041] The anchoring system comprises, in a preferred embodiment, a locking means, located on each side of the front part of the chest, comprising:
[0042] - an anchoring element fixed to the upper wall, including a first anchoring site and a second anchoring site, located in a lower position than the first anchoring site; Y
[0043] - a locking element that, with the anchoring system in the locked state, remains anchored to the first anchoring site in the folded box configuration and to the second anchoring site in the deployed box configuration; and with the anchoring system in the unlocked state, it remains unlocked.
[0045] In an alternative embodiment, the anchoring system comprises a locking means, located on each side of the front part of the chest, comprising:
[0046] - an anchoring element fixed to the upper wall, including an anchoring site; - a first locking element, which remains anchored to the anchoring site in the folded chest configuration, with the anchoring system in the locked state; and - a second locking element, located in a higher position than the first locking element, which remains anchored to the anchoring site in the deployed chest configuration with the anchoring system in the locked state, and both locking elements remain unlocked with the anchoring system in the unlocked state.
[0048] Preferably, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises a guiding-positioning system, which guides the front part of the upper wall to position and maintain it in the anchoring positions corresponding to the folded box and unfolded box configurations; and in a stationary position, higher and rearward than said anchoring positions, which keeps the anchoring means of the base, the upper wall and the rear wall released.
[0050] In one embodiment, the guide-positioning system, when starting the folding and unfolding processes, forces the upper wall to make a slight forward movement so that, due to the elasticity of the upper wall itself or that of the anchoring means of the top wall, base and rear wall, resist such displacement and increase the tendency of the front of the top wall to maintain the anchor positions corresponding to the chest folded and chest unfolded configurations.
[0052] In a particularly preferred embodiment, the guide-positioning system comprises a guide-positioning means, located on each side of the front part of the box, comprising:
[0053] - at least one anchoring positioning means, which can be a seat, a housing, a retention means or the like, which maintains the front part of the upper wall in the anchoring position corresponding to the folded chest configuration and in the anchoring position corresponding to the unfolded chest configuration; Y
[0054] - a stationary positioning means, which can be a seat, a housing, a retention means or the like, which keeps the front part of the upper wall in the stationary position during the folding and unfolding processes, so that the side walls and the rear wall are released from the top wall to rotate.
[0056] To alternate and maintain the positions of the side walls corresponding to the different configurations, in a preferred embodiment the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises:
[0057] - respective means of retention of the upper wall, located in each lateral part of the upper wall, and respective means of retention of the rear wall, located in each lateral part of the rear wall;
[0058] - respective articulation means of the rear wall, pivotally connecting it with the corresponding side wall;
[0059] - a transverse connection means, comprising an articulation means at each of its two ends, which pivotally connects said transverse connection means to the corresponding side wall; Y
[0060] - a lateral connection system on each side of the box, comprising at least two lateral connection means, it being convenient that each lateral connection system incorporates at least three lateral connection means, to provide a more solid connection;
[0061] so that:
[0062] - the retention means and the lateral edges of the upper wall, together with the retention means and the lateral edges of the rear wall, retain the lateral walls in the position corresponding to the unfolded chest configuration, which are released from the retaining means of the upper wall, by slightly raising the rear part of the upper wall swinging on the front part of said upper wall, located in the stationary position in the folding process;
[0063] - the joint action of both means of articulation of the rear wall allows said rear wall to rotate around a transverse axis parallel to the rear edge of the base, in the folding process, to rotate slightly backwards and release each side wall from the respective rear wall retaining means and for collapsing onto the base, or in the unfolding process, for raising and for slightly forward rotating and retaining the side walls with respective retaining means;
[0064] - each lateral connection system, in a retention state, maintains pivotally connected the corresponding lateral wall with the base;
[0065] - the joint action of the articulation means of the rear wall, the articulation means of the transverse connection means and the lateral connection system, in a state of retention, corresponding to each side of the box allows the corresponding side wall to rotate around a longitudinal axis essentially parallel to the edge of the base to which it is attached, to be folded or raised in the folding and unfolding processes;
[0066] - in the closed unfolded box configuration, the two lateral connection systems, in the retention state, keep the cover coupled to the base; Y
[0067] - At least the lateral connection system on one side of the box alternates its retention state and a release state in which, with the box deployed, it allows the corresponding side wall to be disconnected from the base, so that the box cover tilts by means of the articulation formed by the lateral interconnection system on the opposite side, which maintains its retention state.
[0069] In a preferred embodiment, each of the lateral connection means comprises: - a connector element, fixed to the corresponding lateral wall; Y
[0070] - a connector means, which includes a fixing element to the base and a retention element.
[0072] In one embodiment, the retention elements belonging to a first lateral connection system in a single retention state are fixed and retain the corresponding connecting elements on that side, while the retention elements of a second lateral connection system, which alternate the retention and release states are movable in such a way that, with the second lateral connection system in the retention state, they retain the corresponding connector elements and, with the second lateral connection system in a release state, they keep said connector elements to allow the cover to be tilted from that side of the box. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the retention elements on both sides of the box are movable, in such a way that they allow the cover to be tilted from either side.
[0074] Preferably, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises at least one means of actuating the anchoring system, which acts on said anchoring system to alternate its locking state, where it maintains the configurations of the folded box and the folded box, and its unlocked status, where it allows you to switch these settings.
[0076] Preferably, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises at least one means for actuating the lateral connection system on one side of the box, which acts on said lateral connection system to alternate its retention state, where it maintains the side wall corresponding side connected to base, and its release state, where it allows disconnecting said side wall so that the cover can tilt.
[0078] In a preferred embodiment, the foldable luggage box of the invention comprises a rear support means and a front support means, located respectively at the rear and front parts of the box, which keep the cover of the open unfolded box elevated. The rear support means is attached to the base and to the rear wall by means of respective articulation means, which allow it to be folded integrally with the rear wall, to be located in an essentially horizontal position in the folded chest configuration.
[0080] In one embodiment, the upper wall is a continuous piece and in an alternative embodiment, it is composed of at least two pieces, articulated to each other. The articulation between said pieces is configured in such a way that each piece overlaps the rear one, to prevent the rear piece from being raised by aerodynamic effect, as happened in previous embodiments. To achieve their tightness, molded grooves are necessary in the overlapping area of said pieces or resort to rubber gaskets or the like. This articulated upper wall configuration allows a lower height of the folded box, which optimizes its storage although it is less solid and its manufacturing cost is higher than in the case of a single continuous piece.
[0082] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the manipulation of the upper wall to perform the necessary movements in the folding and unfolding processes, the upper wall comprises a handle.
[0084] In one embodiment, the anchoring system, the guide-positioning system, the transverse connection system, the articulation means of the rear wall and the lateral connection means comprise springs that facilitate their operation and / or motors that perform their functions. , rather than having to do it manually.

[0218] PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
[0220] An example of a folding luggage box according to the present invention is described below with reference to the attached figures.
[0221] The improved folding roof box (1) comprises an upper wall (3), a rear wall (4) and two side walls (5), which make up the cover (10) of the unfolded chest (1), and a base (2) , and it can adopt three configurations:
[0222] - Chest (1) folded, represented in Fig. 1.
[0223] - Chest (1) unfolded closed, represented in Fig. 2.
[0224] - Chest (1) unfolded open, represented in Fig. 3.
[0226] The upper wall (3) comprises two anchoring means (31), fixed inside the rear edge (34) of the upper wall (3), which are respectively anchored, in the folded chest (1) configuration, to two means anchoring (21) of the base (2), fixed to the rear edge of the base (2), as can be seen in Fig. 4; and in the configuration of the chest (1) unfolded, to two anchoring means (41) of the rear wall (4), as can be seen in Fig. 6.

[0308] In Fig. 29 to 35 a sequence of the unfolding of the chest (1) is shown, starting from the configuration of the folded chest (1), shown in Fig. 29, where the front edge (32), the rear edge (34 ) and the lateral edges (35) of the upper wall (3) cover the perimeter edge (22) of the base (2); the front portion of the upper wall (3) is in its lower anchoring position, in which the locking elements (622) are anchored to the respective first anchoring sites (361); and the anchoring means (31) of the upper wall (3) and the anchoring means (21) of the base (2) remain anchored to each other, as shown in detail in Fig. 4. The cylinder (93) on the left side in the folding / unfolding position which, by means of the corresponding actuating means (91), places the anchoring system (62) in the unlocked state, in which the locking elements (622) are unanchored from their respective first anchoring sites (361), as shown in detail in Fig. 5, which allows the front part of the upper wall (3) to be moved upwards and the upper wall (3) backwards, with the help of a handle (38) located on its leading edge (32) and directed by the guide-positioning means (63). The front part of the upper wall (3) is located in the stationary position, as can be seen in Fig. 30, as the anchoring elements (36) rest on the respective stationary positioning means (652), so that the anchoring means (31) of the upper wall (3) are released from the anchoring means (21) of the base (2), as can be seen in Fig. 5. In this way, as can be seen in Fig. 31, the upper wall (3) is released to tilt on its front part and allow the rear wall (4) to rise, by rotation, to an essentially vertical position, serving as a support for the rear part of the upper wall (3) , as can be seen in Fig. 32. The side walls (5) are released to be lifted by rotation, passing the respective retention means (33 and 44) of the upper wall (3) and the rear wall (4), when raise the rear part of the upper wall (3) slightly and fold back slightly the pair ed rear (4), as can be seen in Fig. 33, until the side walls (5) reach an essentially vertical position, shown in Fig. 34, the anchoring means (31) remaining unanchored from the upper wall ( 3) of the anchoring means (41) of the rear wall (4), as can be seen in greater detail in Fig. 7. Finally, the upper wall (3) is moved forward with the help of the handle (38) and directed by the positioning guide means (63) and its front part moves downwards, until it is in its upper anchoring position, so that the anchoring means (31) of the upper wall (3) and the anchoring means (41) of the rear wall (4) are anchored to each other. By actuating the cylinder (93) on the left side in its closed position, the corresponding actuating means (91) places the anchoring system (62) in a locked state, in which the locking elements (622) are anchored in the respective second anchoring sites (362), as seen in Fig. 6. In this way, as shown in Fig. 35, the chest (1) acquires the closed deployed configuration, in which the upper edge (53) each side wall (5) is retained between the corresponding side edges (35) of the upper wall (3) and retention means (33) in the form of a projection molded into the upper wall (3); the rear edge (54) of each side wall (5) is retained between corresponding side edges (45) of rear wall (4) and retention means (44) in the form of a projection molded into rear wall (4); the rear edge (34) of the upper wall (3) retains the upper edge (43) of the rear wall (4); and the leading edge (32) of the upper wall (3), together with the lower edge (42) of the rear wall (4) and the lower edge (52) of the side walls, cover the perimeter edge (22) of the base (2), and the lateral connection systems (8) on both sides of the box (1) remain in a retention state, as shown in Fig 14, solidly forming the cover (10) of the box (1).
[0310] To access the interior of the box (1), the cylinder (93) is operated on either of the two sides in its open position which, by means of the corresponding actuating means (92), positions the lateral connection system (8) on that side in the release state, when disconnecting the connector elements (56, 57 and 58) from the corresponding connector means (26, 27 and 28), as can be seen in Fig. 21; and the cover (10) of the chest (1) is folded down by rotating, around a longitudinal axis (E1) essentially parallel to the side of the base (2) to which it remains attached, by means of the articulation formed by the lateral connection system (8 ) on the side that remains connected to the base (2), until the chest (1) is open with the help of the support means (24 and 25).
[0312] Once the invention has been described with reference to an embodiment thereof, it is stated for the appropriate purposes that, as will be evident to the person with experience in the art, different modifications of the details of this exposition are possible provided that they do not alter the essential characteristics of the invention.
