Abstract

On a piece of luggage having at least one inner volume, which is delimited by at least one luggage wall and by at least one side wall protruding from said luggage wall, wherein the inner volume is divided by at least one intermediate plate, it is provided that at least one luggage strap is attached to the intermediate plate with a first end, the luggage strap is adjustably guided by means of at least one deflection device along the wall of the piece of luggage and at least two side wall sections that are disposed opposite each other such that the distance of the intermediate plate to the luggage wall can be adjusted in a variable way, and that the free second end of the luggage strap can also be fastened to the intermediate plate.

Claims (18)

1. A luggage case comprising at least one inner volume defined by at least one wall of the luggage case and at least one side wall projecting from said wall of the luggage case, the inner volume being divided by at least one intermediate plate,

wherein,

at least one luggage strap is fastened with a first end to the intermediate plate, that the luggage strap is guided adjustably along the wall of the luggage case and at least two opposite side wall portions by means of at least one deflection means such that the distance of the intermediate plate to the wall of the luggage case can be adjusted variably, and that the free second end of the luggage strap may also be fastened to the intermediate plate by a quick-acting fastener, wherein a first part of the quick-acting fastener is fastened to the free second end of the luggage strap and a second part of the quick-acting fastener is fastened to the intermediate plate.

2. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein said luggage strap is guided closely along the wall of the luggage case and the respective side wall portion along which the luggage strap runs.

3. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein at least one deflection means redirects the luggage strap in the mutually opposite transition portions between the respective side wall portions and the adjoining wall of the luggage case.

4. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein at least one deflection means is formed by a guide channel through which the luggage strap is passed.

5. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein at least two deflection means guide the luggage strap.

6. The luggage case of claim 5 , wherein the deflection means are formed by loop-like deflection means.

7. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein the luggage strap is removably fastened at the free second end by means of a quick-acting fastener.

8. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate plate extends in different selectable planes, preferably in parallel with the wall of the luggage case.

9. The luggage case of claim 1 , wherein the length of the portions of the luggage strap extending in parallel with the side wall portions and thus the distance between the intermediate plate and the wall of the luggage case is adjustable by the luggage strap being displaceable with respect to the wall of the luggage case and the position of the fastening of the luggage strap on the intermediate plate is optionally selectable.

10. A luggage case comprising at least one inner volume defined by at least one wall of the luggage case and at least one side wall projecting from said wall of the luggage case, the inner volume being divided by at least one intermediate plate,

wherein

at least one luggage strap is fastened with a first end to the intermediate plate, that the luggage strap is guided adjustably along the wall of the luggage case and at least two opposite side wall portions by means of at least one deflection means such that the distance of the intermediate plate to the wall of the luggage case can be adjusted variably, and that the free second end of the luggage strap may also be fastened to the intermediate plate,

wherein

the luggage strap is removably fastened at the free second end by means of a quick-acting fastener, wherein a first part of the quick-acting fastener is fastened to the free second end of the luggage strap and a second part of the quick-acting fastener is fastened to the intermediate plate,

wherein

the fastener is a hook and loops-type fastener, a snap fastener or a magnetic fastener.
