Abstract (en)
A bottom structure for a luggage article (100) is provided. The luggage article may include first and second halves (150, 152) hingedly connected together at a split line (160), a closure mechanism (210) releasably securing the first and second halves together, and a split bottom pan assembly (270) including first and second pan members (280, 282) supporting respective bottom panel portions (330, 332) of the first and second halves. The closure mechanism may releasably secure the first and second halves together in a closed configuration along at least a portion of the split line. Each of the first and second pan members may include a connecting edge (340, 341). The connecting edges of the first and second pan members may engage and interlock together at the split line when the luggage article is in the closed configuration to form a solid bottom structure.
