<p>A suitcase fastener has a retaining member secured to the cover of a suitcase and a fastening assembly mounted on the case of the suitcase to engage the retaining member for holding the case and the cover together. The fastening assembly includes a base block with a receiving space. A first swing member has one end portion pivoted to the base block and another end portion biased away from the receiving space. A clasp member, pivoted to the other end portion of the first swing member, has a hook element and an engagement element at two end portions thereof and is biased to an unfolded position relative to the first swing member. The swing member and the clasp member are operable to be moved to their folded position in which the hook element is pressed to engage the retaining member and in which the other end portion of the first swing member and the engagement element of the clasp member are pressed into the receiving space. A second swing member, fulcrumed inside the receiving space, has a beak portion that is capable of engaging the engagement element when the engagement element is moved into the receiving space, and a tail portion that is capable of being pressed to release the beak portion from the engagement element so as to permit the swing member to be biased away from the receiving space and so as to disengage the hook element from the retaining member.</p> |
