A handle assembly that includes two sets of handle members that are vertically engageable with one another and where at least one of the sets of handle members extends substantially across a width of the receiving portion in the housing or bag that receives the handle. The receiving portion can be integral with the housing such that no additional receiving portion needs to be produced during the manufacturing process, resulting in a less complex and expensive manufacturing operation. The handle can further include a detent mechanism to allow the handle to easily collapse into the housing without the need for a separate button and lock mechanism.

1. A collapsible handle assembly receivable in a receiving portion of a housing, the handle assembly comprising: a first handle member including a first pair of opposing brackets coupled together and extending in a substantially axial direction and slidably receivable by the receiving portion;a second handle member including a second pair of opposing brackets coupled together and slidably receivable between the first pair of opposing brackets in the axial direction, the first and second handle members extending substantially across a width of the receiving portion, the width being a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial direction; anda detent disposed on one of the first and second handle members and engageable with an indent disposed on the other of the first and second handle members to maintain the first and second handle members in a partially axially outstretched position. 2. The handle assembly of claim 1, wherein the receiving portion further includes a structure integrally disposed in the housing and adapted to slidably receive the first handle member. 3. The handle assembly of claim 1, wherein one of the first and second handle members includes a vent. 4. The handle assembly of claim 1, further comprising an extension portion receivable within the second handle portion and having a grip member adapted to be gripped by a user. 5. The handle assembly of claim 4, further comprising a first shelf and a second shelf respectively disposed on ends of the first handle member and the second handle member, the first shelf adapted to obstruct movement of the second handle member and the second shelf adapted to obstruct movement of the extension portion. 6. A baggage comprising: a housing including a receiving portion integrally provided with a receiving structure;a handle assembly including: a first handle member including a first pair of opposing brackets coupled together, the first handle member extending in a substantially axial direction and slidably receivable by the receiving structure;a second handle member including a second pair of opposing brackets coupled together and slidably receivable between the first pair of opposing brackets in the axial direction, the first and second handle members extending substantially across a width of the receiving portion, the width being a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial direction; anda detent disposed on one of the first and second handle members and engageable with an indent disposed on the other of the first and second handle members to maintain the first and second handle members in a partially axially outstretched position. 7. The handle assembly of claim 6, wherein one of the first and second handle members includes a vent. 8. The handle assembly of claim 6, further comprising an extension portion axially receivable within the second handle portion and having a grip member adapted to be gripped by a user. 9. The handle assembly of claim 8, further comprising a first shelf and a second shelf respectively disposed on ends of the first handle member and the second handle member, the first shelf adapted to obstruct axial movement of the second handle member and the second shelf adapted to obstruct axial movement of the extension portion. 10. A baggage device, comprising: a housing including a base, a lid coupled to the base and adapted to open and close the base, and a receiving portion including rails disposed at opposing ends of the receiving portion and a receiving shelf disposed at an opening of the receiving portion;a first handle member including a first pair of opposing brackets coupled together by a first shelf, the first pair of opposing brackets having a first width extending substantially across a width of the receiving portion, the first handle member being slidably received by the receiving portion in a substantially axial direction and adapted to engage the rails, the first pair of opposing brackets each having a first ledge adapted to abut against the receiving shelf to impede removal of the first handle member from the receiving portion, and the first pair of opposing brackets each having a first indent disposed on an internal surface;a second handle member including a second pair of opposing brackets coupled together by a second shelf, the second handle member being slidably received between the first pair of opposing brackets in the axial direction and having a second width extending substantially across the width of the receiving portion, the second pair of opposing brackets each having a second ledge, a second indent disposed on an internal surface and a second detent disposed on an external surface, the second detents adapted to engage the first indents when the second handle member is extended from the first handle member and the second ledges being adapted to abut the first shelf to impede removal of the second handle member from the first handle member; andan extension portion slidably received between the second pair of opposing brackets in the axial direction, the extension portion including third detents on opposite external surfaces and a third ledge, the third detents adapted to engage the second indents when the extension portion is axially extended from the second handle member and the third ledge adapted to abut against the second shelf to impede removal of the extension portion from the second handle member, the extension portion including a grip member disposed at an end of the extension portion and adapted to receive an external force from a user,wherein application of a collapsing force to the grip by the user collapses the first handle member, the second handle member and the extension portion substantially into the receiving portion, and application of an extending force to the grip by the user extends the extension portion from the second handle member, extends the second handle member from the first handle member, and extends the first handle member from the receiving portion. 11. A method of collapsing a handle into a housing comprising: providing a first handle member including a first pair of opposing brackets coupled together and a second handle member including a second pair of opposing brackets coupled together, one of the first and second handle members including an indent and the other of the first and second handle members including a detent engageable with the indent to form a detainable engagement between the first and second handle members;applying a collapsing force to overcome the detainable engagement to thereby allow the handle to collapse; andcontinuing to apply the collapsing force until the first handle member and the second handle member are substantially concealed by the housing. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising providing an extension portion slidably received by the second handle member, wherein the collapsing force is applied to the extension portion. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising applying a lifting force in a direction opposite the collapsing force to lift the handle from the housing, wherein the second handle member includes the detent.
