The external surface of Climbing UP Suitcase
integrates rubber belt tracks (much like the
tracks on a tank) to allow the user to pull it up
stairs as well as across flat ground.
It is generally difficult to pull a suitcase up
stairs or across uneven surfaces as existing
suitcase castors are meant for wheeling on
flat ground. Suitcases need to be lifted over
bumps and changes in level.
Climbing UP Suitcase makes life easier with its
streamlined handle-frame structure and rubber
belt tracks, which cover the entire body of the
suitcase.
The design enables the whole length of the
suitcase to come into contact with the stairs, and thus allows the user to pull up easily. With
the rubber belt designed as a continuous track
covering the entire suitcase body, the suitcase
can be pulled from both the front and back. In
addition, the suitcase has a hard-case body,
and opens and closes with a digital lock, which
gives maximum protection and security.
