A wheeled luggage with a third wheel control mechanism in which release button is disposed within the bezel for controlling the extension of third wheel by actuating a connecting rod attached between release button and third wheel control lever in particularly, the extension of the third wheel is actuated simply by pressing the release button provided within the bezel and the retraction of the same is only to push to third wheel bracket plate into the back plate of luggage and to have it locked thereto. The location of the connecting rod is preferable near the retractable handle. By utilizing this, connecting rod is enhanced in mechanical strength for preventing from being deformed by the weight of luggage during transportation, and an easy assembling and a simplified controlling mechanism are obtained.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A wheeled luggage with a third wheel control mechanism comprising:a luggage;a bezel provided on a top of the luggage;a retractable handle provided within a rear portion of the luggage;a third wheel control mechanism provided below the bezel comprising:a release button with the bezel;a vertically disposed connecting rod actuated by said release button;a pivotal lever actuated by said connecting rod;a spring means for keeping said pivotal lever in a horizontal position normally;a third wheel bracket plate having a third wheel at a lower portion and a resilient hinge means at an upper portion to have said third wheel bracket plate pivotally attached to a back plate of said luggage; anda hooking means for locking said third wheel bracket plate onto said back plate of said luggage by engaging with said pivotal lever when retracted;whereas when said release button is pressed by user to actuate said connecting rod to force said pivotal lever means to be pivoted about its pivot point, said hooking member releases said pivotal lever means so as to enable said third wheel bracket plate to be extended outwardly by the action of said resilient hinge means thus resulting the third wheel automatically extended to an operating position ready for use.
