Luggage bag comprising a geolocation module associated with a communication module
First Claim
1. A luggage bag comprising an envelope, defining a loading volume and bearing electronic circuits comprising in particular a geolocation module and a communication module that are designed in such a way that an information item relating to the position of the luggage bag may be remotely accessible to a user, said communication module comprising a switch-off device allowing its deactivation by the user independently of the remainder of said electronic circuits, whereinsaid electronic circuits furthermore comprise a detection module, designed to take measurements of at least one physical quantity and to identify conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft on the basis of the measurements,said electronic circuits are capable of functioning in an aircraft mode, which mode can exclusively be activated:
- in response to a suitable action of the user on said electronic circuits, oras a result of a suitable programming of said electronic circuits by the user prior to transport of the luggage bag by aircraft, based on at least one expected takeoff time,said electronic circuits being designed to deactivate said communication module in said aircraft mode and to control said detection module so that it performs the measurements staggered over time, said electronic circuits also being designed to automatically reactivate said communication module subsequent to the identification of conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft on the basis of said measurements.

Abstract
A luggage bag is disclosed which comprises electronic circuits comprising a geolocation module and a communication module that are designed such that an information item relating to the position of the luggage bag may be remotely accessible to a user, the communication module exhibiting a switch-off device allowing its deactivation by the user independently of the remainder of the electronic circuits. The electronic circuits comprise a detection module, designed to take measurements of at least one physical quantity and to identify conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft. They can also be programmed to operate in an aircraft mode in which, after deactivation of the communication module in response to an action of the user, the detection module performs measurements staggered over time, the electronic circuits being designed to automatically reactivate the communication module subsequent to the identification of conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft.

17. A method for tracking an aircraft flight for a luggage bag comprising an envelope, defining a loading volume and bearing electronic circuits comprising in particular a geolocation module and a communication module that are designed in such a way that an information item relating to the position of the luggage bag may be remotely accessible to a user, said communication module exhibiting a switch-off device allowing its deactivation by the user independently of the remainder of said electronic circuits, said electronic circuits furthermore comprising a detection module, designed to take measurements of at least one physical quantity and to identify conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft on the basis of these measurements, as well as at least one input, to allow a user to transmit data to them, and a storage memory, intended to store information items relating in particular to the dates and times of takeoff of one or more scheduled flights, the method comprising the steps:
-
a) deactivating said communication module, by action on said switch-off device, prior to a scheduled flight, b) placing said electronic circuits in an aircraft mode in which said detection module performs measurements staggered over time with the aim of identifying conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft on the basis of said measurements, wherein the aircraft mode is exclusively activated; in response to a suitable action of the user on said electronic circuits, or as a result of a suitable programming of said electronic circuits by the user prior to transport of the luggage bag by aircraft, based on at least one expected takeoff time, and c) automatically reactivating said communication module subsequent to the identification of conditions corresponding to the landing of an aircraft on the basis of said measurements. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
