About Free Lock Equipaje
Free Lock es una maleta diseñada para viajeros que deben dejar su equipaje sin vigilancia durante breves períodos. El asa de Free Lock funciona también como candado: se libera mediante una cerradura de combinación, se gira 90 grados y se sujeta a un objeto fijo, como un asiento o una barandilla. Así, los viajeros pueden descansar o ir al baño sin necesidad de llevar consigo la maleta. El cuerpo está fabricado principalmente en plástico ABS y PC, un material duro y resistente a los impactos. Las cuatro esquinas están recubiertas de aluminio para brindar una protección adicional. La maleta mide 48,5 por 38,5 por 84 centímetros.

According to statistics, most people choose to enter the airport lounge half an hour to an hour in advance, during this period of time people should be careful about the problem of lost luggage.
- Inspiration
- The experience in lounge inspired me to come up with the project. My job requires travel. When I wait for train or plane, I must watch my luggage even I want to rest. In addition, I have to take my luggage into the toilet. This made my trip difficult. I was inspired by the lock and wanted to design a luggage that could be safely locked in a fixed area.
