About Free Lock Entana

Ny Free Lock dia valizy natao ho an'ireo mpandeha izay tsy maintsy mandao ny entany tsy misy mpiambina mandritra ny fotoana fohy. Ny tehin'ny valizy (handle) dia miasa koa ho hidin-trano. Azo esorina io tehina io amin'ny alalan'ny hidy misy kaody, atodika 90 degre ary afatotra amin'ny zavatra tsy mihetsika toy ny seza na fefy. Amin'izay, ny mpandeha dia afaka mitsahatra na mampiasa efitrano fivoahana tsy mitondra ilay valizy. Ny vatan'ilay valizy dia vita indrindra amin'ny plastika ABS sy PC, izay mafy sady mahatohitra tsindrona. Ny zoro efatra dia rakofan'ny aliminioma mba hampitomboana ny fiarovana. Ny refin'ilay valizy dia 48,5 santimetatra x 38,5 santimetatra x 84 santimetatra.

Design Challenge: This is an innovative design with a complex internal structure, and the machining qualification rate is the biggest challenge encountered by this project.
Research: According to the survey, most airports and stations have toilets the size of which cannot accommodate a large luggage. Carrying a luggage into the toilet is inconvenient. 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.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 in Anhui and finished in May 2019 in that place, and was exhibited in Shantou in June 2019.
Operation Flow: First of all, find a fixed area such as a common area or a railing. Then the user opens the handle of Free Lock through the coded lock . Turn the handle of the luggage 90° and lock it. After that users can rest assured to go to the toilet or concentrate on rest.
