  • Publication number: 20110031082
    Abstract: The luggage device has an extendible handle threaded in at least a tubular sleeve. An elastic element is housed in the tubular sleeve, supporting from below a connecting rod. A bottom end of the connecting rod is configured with a brake pad. A blind hole is configured on the extendible handle where a spring and a steel ball are housed to interact with a through hole of the tubular sleeve. When the extendible handle is pushed downward, the blind hole is aligned with the through hole of the tubular sleeve and the steel ball is pushed by the spring into the through hole, thereby detachably locking the extendible handle. In the mean time, the connecting rod is driven downward and the brake pad is pressed against the wheel to prevent it from rolling.
