Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0108528A1] A simple, stylish luggage handle comprises only a few parts, most of which are made by injection molding. The grip portion includes a handle wrap (60) of leather-like material, the only stitched portion of which has an upper and lower seam. The injection molded part includes a spline (72) which acts simultaneously to attach the wrap (60) to the grip portion (50) of the bail (30), as well as to tighten or snug the handle wrap (60) around that portion so it firmly grips the enveloped injection molded contours. Preferably a molded pad (80) can also be attached to the lower surface of the bail (30). This pad (80) could be made of soft vinyl material for greater comfort. This pad (80) is firmly held beneath the stitched wrap to provide a handle that is pleasing to look at and to hold.
