초록

An apparatus and method for forming a self-stabilized luggage assembly is disclosed. In one embodiment the method includes coupling a first piece of luggage in contact with a second piece of luggage using an adjustable stabilizer configured to couple a handle on the first piece of luggage to a handle on the second piece of luggage while wheels on the bottom of the first and second pieces of luggage remain on the ground when the first and second pieces of luggage are tilted, upright, moving, and stationary. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

1. A luggage coupling apparatus for coupling a first suitcase pulled by a user to a trailing adjacent second suitcase, comprising: an attachment member having a first side in an engagement to a first end of an extension portion, said attachment member having a U-shaped distal end opposite said first side;said extension portion having opposing sides extending from said first end thereof, to a second end;said extension portion in a configuration for a communication across a space above a first suitcase and second suitcase adjacent thereto,said first end of said extension portion having a trapezoidal shaped first slot formed therein extending from a narrow portion of said first slot adjacent said first end of said extension portion, to a wider portion of said first slot terminating at a first divider extending between said opposing sides;a tapered portion of said extension portion adjacent said first end thereof, said tapered portion defined by a narrower spacing between said two opposing sidewalls adjacent said first end of said extension portion to a wider spacing between said opposing sides adjacent said first divider;said tapered portion configured for communication of a portion thereof through an area between a handle engaged with said second suitcase, and said suitcase;said tapered portion of said extension portion being sufficiently flexible to curve around said handle on the second suitcase in a wrap around engagement thereto extending back toward said first suitcase;a plurality of additional rectangular slots formed between said opposing sidewalls of said extension portion, said plurality of additional rectangular slots positioned in-between said first divider and said second end of said extension portion, and having respective secondary dividers therebetween;one of said rectangular-shaped slots positioned on said extension portion engageable to a first engagement with an elongated handle extending above a top surface of said first suitcase;said U-shaped distal end of said attachment member while in said wrap around engagement, and with a said rectangular slot in a said first engagement, configured for a removable engagement with said first divider or one of said respective secondary dividers, to form an engagement configuration of said extension portion;the engagement configuration of the extension portion extending substantially a fixed distance between the handle of the second suitcase and the first engagement of the extension portion with said first suitcase;said engagement configuration providing for adjusting said fixed distance for maintaining the first suitcase in a contact with, and adjacent to and substantially aligned with the second suitcase, with their respective wheels continually remaining on said support surface and providing for a support of their respective weights thereon. 2. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 1 additionally comprising: said attachment member having a width, said extension portion having a width at said first end, said width of said attachment member being substantially the same as said width of said extension portion at said first end. 3. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 2 additionally comprising: said attachment member having a substantially planar portion extending between said first side thereof to said distal end thereof; andsaid planar portion allowing for an easy passage of said attachment member through an area between said handle of said second suitcase and said second suitcase to achieve said wrap around engagement. 4. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 3 additionally comprising: said plurality of additional rectangular slots numbering 4. 5. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 4 additionally comprising: said luggage coupling formed of inelastic material. 6. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 3 additionally comprising: said luggage coupling formed of inelastic material. 7. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 2 additionally comprising: said plurality of additional rectangular slots numbering 4. 8. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 2 additionally comprising: said luggage coupling formed of inelastic material. 9. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 1 additionally comprising: said attachment member having a substantially planar portion extending between said first side thereof to said distal end thereof; andsaid planar portion allowing for an easy passage of said attachment member through an area between said handle of said second suitcase and said second suitcase to achieve said wrap around engagement. 10. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 9 additionally comprising: said plurality of additional rectangular slots numbering 4. 11. The luggage coupling apparatus of claim 1 additionally comprising: said plurality of additional rectangular slots numbering 4.
