ABSTRACT:
An easily pullable suitcase which can be towed on all four wheels or on two main wheels with comfort using an attached pulling handle. The handle can be free pivoting to pull the suitcase on four wheels, or can be rigidly fixed in a position that eases lifting the suitcase front end and pulling the suitcase on the two main wheels. The two main wheels are located with their axle under the suitcase center of gravity so that, when pulled on the main wheels, the suitcase weight is carried by the wheels, causing minimum pressure on the hand of a pulling person. The bottom of the suitcase is V-shaped to allow clearance for the bottom rear end when the front end of the suitcase is lifted upwards and pulled on two main wheels.
