  • Patent number: 5230408
    Abstract: An article of wheeled luggage is provided with retractible outriggers that are biased in a direction for them to extend beyond the lateral sides of the article of luggage, thus to provide stabilization for the luggage and militate against accidental tipping over of the luggage during towing of the article of wheeled luggage, the outriggers being movable against the resilient bias, in the event that an arm of the outrigger encounters an obstacle. Dual or multiple such outriggers can be provided for a large article of luggage, the outriggers being interconnected in the form of a parallelogram. A pull cord is provided for retracting the outriggers against the resilient bias for storage of the article of luggage.
