Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a luggage bag with a reinforced cover that is made up of a fabric layer and a wire mesh layer. The wire mesh layer is made up of a plurality of strands that are stitched to the fabric layer. The wire mesh layer is patterned in a preselected pattern, such as a net-or mesh-like pattern, in which the strands of the wire mesh layer overlie themselves at intersections or nodes in the pattern. The stitching is performed using a lockstitch or other stitch that securely attaches the wire mesh layer to the fabric layer. The reinforced cover can be made from separate sheets with the wire mesh layer sewn longitudinally along a continuous strand of the wire mesh. The wire mesh strand can follow a boustrophedonic path, and the fabric layer can be reinforced by the wire mesh layer in a pattern that overlies a surface of the fabric layer. The reinforced cover provides improved durability and protection for the luggage bag.

Problems solved by technology

However, the manufacture of laminated luggage bags or sheets of cover material has proven to be relatively costly.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]Referring to FIG. 1, a reinforced textile 10 may be made from a sheet of fabric 11 to which a continuous reinforcing wire strand 12 of a wire mesh 7 is sewn. The reinforcing strand 12 overlies a surface 13 of the fabric 11 and is fixed to the fabric 11 by a lockstitch formed of an upper thread 14 and lower thread 15. The lockstitch may be a zigzag stitch in which the upper thread 14 crosses back and forth over the reinforcing wire strand 12, and the lower thread extends longitudinally in the direction of the reinforcing wire strand 12. The reinforcing strand 12 preferably comprises a multi-stranded metal wire, and the threads 14, 15 may comprise multi-filament threads. It will be appreciated that the illustration is schematic, and the scale and the space shown between the surface 13 and reinforcing wire strand 12, are not representative of the actual geometry.

[0037]As shown in FIG. 2, the reinforcing strand 12 of a wire mesh 7′ may be one continuous length arrayed in a regular...
