Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0228304A2] The body (1), and in the illustrated embodiment the lid (2) also, of a luggage case is formed from a tubular ring (3) of self-supporting sheet material, for example an adhesivelybonded paper composition material, having a decorative covering applied to it, to which a closing panel (7) of sheet material having one or more peripheral flanges (25) is fitted in and secured to its one end at the flange or flanges so that a continuous circumferential wall and one side wall are provided. A trim strip (15) applied to the edge of that end of the tubular ring (3) has an internal step (20) which locates the panel (7). Fittings (27, 28) of the luggage case are secured to the tubular ring (3) and to the periphereral flange or flanges (25). A lining is attached inside the tubular ring and panel.
