ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses the structure and method of making a light-weight semi-rigid luggage case having a main body portion and a cover portion hinged along one of the mating side edges to enable the cover to swing out and in with respect to the body portion to which it may be locked as by a separable fastener. The body portion and the cover portion each have a semi-rigid supporting frame consisting of a substantially rectangular loop of spring steel wire secured adjacent the outside face thereof. An additional substantially rectangular loop of spring steel wire is supported by a movable flap, attached adjacent the inner edge of the body portion, and is adapted to be swung down inside the body portion to a position between the other two support loops, to provide a central support frame for the body portion as well as a retainer for a liner member of the body portion. The construction enables the parts of the luggage case to be readily assembled and installed by standard sewing machine equipment.
