ABSTRACT:
A wheeled baggage hinge system (10) adapted for use on a luggage carrier (12). The luggage carrier (12) is adapted for wheeled rotation on a base surface (16) and is further structurally defined to allow opening of lid element (18) and bottom element (20) on a base surface (16) in a manner such that lid sidewall (30) and bottom sidewall (34) lie in interfacing contact with the horizontal base surface (16) when luggage carrier (12) is opened. The wheeled baggage hinge system (10) includes a hinge mechanism (44) composed of a pair of bottom planar elements (52) and (54) rotatively coupled to a central planar element (56) which is pivotally mounted to each of bottom planar elements (52) and (54). The central planar element (56) includes an extended transverse length to allow non-interference of wheel elements (38) and (40) when lid element (18) and bottom element (20) are opened for interfacing contact with a base surface (16).
