  • Patent number: 6325189
    Abstract: A two-wheeled luggage cases 10 formed of substantially two parts, the base shell 24 of a generally one-piece molded plastic construction, the lid shell 30 of a composite construction primarily of textile fabric panels assembled to form a covering that provides an access to the interior of the case. Properly fitting a textile lid to the integrally molded sides of a base shell is difficult, especially if the case is large, and most especially where the lid shell is constructed at a location remote from where the lid and base shell are joined to integrate the two and form the overall luggage case. Accordingly, the luggage case has a body portion which comprises a generally one piece base shell defining an interior volume to contain the user's things, and a lid shell is affixed to the base shell, the lid shell being mostly formed of fabric materials, and having a peripheral edge portion and an access opening. An elongated extrusion 55 is sewn along a peripheral edge portion of the lid shell.
