  • Patent number: 4437676
    Abstract: A mobile travel trunk is described including a water tight trunk or trailer compartment including a load adjustable suspension system. The forward end of the travel trunk includes a hitch assembly which is adapted to be secured to the bumper of a vehicle or the like. The rearward end of the trunk has a trapezoidal shaped opening which is defined by a U-shaped lip extending around three sides thereof. A spring loaded trapezoidal shaped door is pivotally mounted to the lower end of the rear wall of the trunk and includes a U-shaped lip which is adapted to be received by the U-shaped lip extending around the opening. When the door is in its closed position, a compression latch assembly causes the door to compress a resilient seal member extending around the door opening to provide a water tight and dust proof seal. The suspension system may be easily removed from the travel trunk to enable the travel trunk and the suspension system to be separately stored.
