ABSTRACT:
A folding suitcase with hard casing consisting of six hard sides at least, wherein the plate bodies of hard casing on the bottom, left and right sides (i.e. bottom, left and right plate bodies) are separable from their corresponding soft surface materials so that these plate bodies become removable. The inner sides at the bottom of the left and right plate bodies are provided with grooves respectively to engage with two longitudinal sides of a bottom plate body, the inner sides at the tops of the left and right plate bodies are provided with hook-and-loop fasteners. A part protruding upward from the tops of the left and right soft surface materials each become a turnover body of which the inner side is also provided with the hook-and-loop fastener to be folded inward and tightly adhered to the foregoing hook-and-loop fasteners on the left and right plate bodies, so the upper and lower ends and the inner and outer sides of left and right plate bodies are tightly fixed and firmly assembled. When these hook-and-loop fasteners are disengaged from each other and the bottom, left and right plate bodies are removed, only the soft surface materials are left on the bottom, left and right sides of the suitcase which become foldable, so the suitcase as whole can be folded into a flat shape with its front and rear sides overlapping each other in order to reduce the space warehousing, shipping and storing it.
