Embodiment Construction

[0025] With reference to the drawings, a vehicle is depicted comprising a vehicle body defining a passenger compartment 1 for receiving one or more vehicle occupants. The vehicle shown in the drawings is a motor vehicle and the passenger is a front passenger of the vehicle. However, it should be understood that the invention may be applied to any type of vehicle and any type of seat in a vehicle.

[0026] The passenger compartment is partly delimited by a floor 2 which extends approximately and at least partly in a plane defined by a longitudinal direction X corresponding to the front-rear direction of the vehicle and a transverse direction corresponding to the vehicle's width. The passenger compartment 1 extends above the floor 2 in a vertical direction Z which corresponds to the height of the vehicle.

[0027] The vehicle comprises at least one seat 4 mounted on the floor 2 . The seat 4 generally includes a seat bottom 6 and a seat back 8 on which a passenger sits, and th...

Abstract

A vehicle comprising: a vehicle body comprising a floor (2) partially defining the interior of a passenger compartment of the vehicle; a seat (4) extending above the floor (2) in the passenger compartment of the vehicle, said seat (4) is movable relative to the vehicle body; - a foot support (14) for an occupant of the seat extending above the floor (2) close to the seat (4) and defined for receiving feet The receiving surface (18) of the foot support device (14) is deformable relative to the vehicle body so as to change at least the orientation of the receiving surface (18). The deformation of the foot support (14) is linked to the movement of the seat (4), such that movement of the seat (2) causes a co-deformation of the foot support (14).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vehicle comprising: [0002] - a vehicle body comprising a floor partially defining the interior of a passenger compartment of the vehicle; [0003] - a seat extending above the floor in the passenger compartment of the vehicle, said seat being movable relative to the vehicle body; [0004] - a foot support for an occupant of the seat, extending above the floor close to the seat and defining a receiving surface for receiving a foot, said foot supporting being deformable relative to the vehicle body so as to change at least the orientation of the receiving surface . [0005] The invention relates, for example, to a motor vehicle. Background technique [0006] The use of a foot support in a vehicle or a footrest in a vehicle enables the formation of a receiving surface for receiving a foot which extends in an oblique manner relative to the floor to allow the driver or passenger to position their foot ergonomically rest comf...
