Abstract: A wheeled luggage case having a luggage receptacle, with two opposing major walls and having end walls forming a luggage compartment. The handle is a flexing, bending, pivoting or otherwise angular mobile linkage. In one embodiment, a major wall of the receptacle is adapted to serve as a bottom wall that faces the ground during a wheeled mode of travel. In another embodiment, the luggage case is deployable in two modes of travel. The case has two alternative attachment points for the handle, one for pulling the case along in a first mode of travel and one for pulling the case along in a second mode of travel.

Abstract: A wheeled luggage case having a luggage receptacle (56), the receptacle (56) having two opposing major walls and having end walls forming a luggage compartment, whereof a major wall of the receptacle is adapted to serve as a bottom wall (60) that faces the ground during a wheeled mode of travel of the luggage case, wherein said luggage case further comprises: (i) a plurality of support wheels; (ii) a retractable steering wheel assembly (58); and (iË) a handle (59) for steering, pushing and/or pulling purposes; wherein the luggage case is configured to be selectively deployable in a first mode of wheeled travel with the retractable steering wheel assembly (58) and support wheels in ground engagement whereby the said bottom wall (60) is facing the ground or in a second mode of wheeled travel with an alternative ground-engaging wheel arrangement whereby an end wall (62) is facing the ground.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wheeled luggage case having a luggage receptacle, the receptacle having a bottom wall, a top wall, opposed end walls and opposed side walls forming a luggage compartment, wherein said luggage case further comprises:—(I) a plurality of support wheels located at one end of the bottom wall; (II) a retractable steering wheel assembly or assemblies, located on the bottom wall, distanced from the support wheels, said steering wheel assembly being moveable between an active position in which the wheel assembly extends below the bottom wall of the luggage receptacle and an inactive position in which the wheel assembly is substantially within the profile of the luggage receptacle; (III) a handle means located at one end of the luggage receptacle for steering, pushing, pulling and lifting purposes wherein when the steering wheel assembly is in an active position the base wall forms an acute angle with respect to the ground.
