[0038] Furthermore, it should be understood that although terms such as “first” and “second” can be used herein to distinguish elements having the same name, these elements are not necessarily limited to the order in the following description.

[0039] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description, the same or corresponding components are assigned the same reference numerals, and repeated descriptions of the same or corresponding components will be omitted.

[0040] Figure 1A A side view of a vehicle including a movable carrier device 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, Figure 1B showing the configuration of the magnetic section 210, Figure 1C a front cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the magnetic section and the track section of the movable carrier device, and Figure 1D a perspective view of the locking pin of the locking unit 300 is shown.

[0041] As shown, the movable carrier device 10 is disposed above the vehicle floor 500 to slide along a track section 100 provided inside the vehicle floor 500.

[0042] The movable carrier device 10 includes: a storage section 200 configured to store a user's luggage or portable items; a magnetic section 210 located on the lower side of the storage section 200 and configured to move along the track section 100; a locking unit 300 disposed inside the floor 500 below the storage section 200 such that the locking unit extends and is fastened to the storage section 200, and a controller 400 that controls the locking unit.

[0043] The controller 400 is configured to control the movement of the movable carrier device 10 according to a user's input, and is also configured to control the deployment of the locking striker 330 of the locking unit 300. In addition, the controller 400 can measure the position of the movable carrier device 10, control the magnetic force of the magnetic section 210 and the magnetic guiding section 320, and adjust the inclination of the inclined portion 322.

[0044] The track section 100 is fixedly located on the lower surface of the floor 500, while the magnetic section 210 moves above the upper surface of the floor 500 in contact with the track section 100 at a position opposite to the track section.

[0045] The floor 500 can be made of a thin non-magnetic material to prevent changes in the magnetic force of the magnetic section 210 and the magnetic guiding section 320, thereby preventing magnetic force loss.

[0046] In other embodiments, the magnetic section 210 may not include a separate storage section 200 and may be configured to include a storage space or electronic components located inside the magnetic section 210.

[0047] In addition, in the same embodiment, the magnetic section 210 can move freely along the upper surface of the floor, and the floor can be configured to have the same physical properties as the track section 100. In addition, the magnetic guiding section 320 includes an entrance portion 321 located in the magnetic section 210, and the locking pin 310 can be inserted into the entrance portion 321 located in the magnetic section 210.

[0048] As Figure 1B shown, on the plane where the track section 100 is located, the magnetic section 210 is applied with: an operating force in the longitudinal direction of the track section 100, such that the magnetic section 210 can move along the track section 100; a release force in the transverse direction of the track section 100; and a removal force in the height direction.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic force required for the removal force is greater than the release force and the operating force, and the magnetic force required for the release force is greater than the operating force.

[0050] When the thickness of the floor 500 decreases, the magnetic forces required for the operating force, the release force, and the removal force become larger, and when the thickness of the magnet increases and / or the thickness of the track section increases, the magnetic forces required for the operating force, the release force, and the removal force become larger.

[0051] The magnetic section 210 is formed by cylindrical rollers to be fastened to the storage section 200, where the N pole and the S pole can be alternately combined to form the magnetic section 210.

[0052] In addition, the magnetic section 210 can be configured such that the magnetic force in the regions near the two edges of the track section 100 is greater than the magnetic force in the central region, thereby preventing the magnetic section 210 from derailing from the track section 100.

[0053] In addition, as Figure 1C shown, the track section 100 is configured such that the thickness increases from the center towards its two lateral ends, thereby increasing the magnetic force required for the release force. More preferably, the track section 100 can be configured such that the two lateral sides are bent downward in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the track section 100.

[0054] As described above, according to the present disclosure, the thickness of the two lateral sides of the track section 100 can be set to be thicker than the central portion to prevent the magnetic section 210 from deflecting in the two lateral directions of the track section 100.

[0055] Figure 1D The coupling relationship between the configurations of the locking pins 310 located near the track section 100 is shown.

[0056] The magnetic guiding section 320 positioned on the lower surface of the storage section 200 or the magnetic section 210 is configured to include an inclined portion 322 and a locking portion 323, wherein the locking portion 323 is configured to be coupled by the locking pins 310 located inside the floor 500. At least one locking pin 310 is positioned on the floor 500 along the direction in which the movable carrier device 10 moves. In addition, when the locking pin 310 extends and is fastened to the magnetic guiding section 320, the controller 400 controls the locking fork 330 of the locking unit 300 to expand so that the locking fork 330 locks the locking pin 310. For example, when the movable carrier device 10 passes through the area where the locking pin 310 of the floor 500 is located, the controller 400 is configured to determine whether the movable carrier device is in the position requested by the user, and when the movable carrier device is in the requested position, cause the locking pin 310 to extend and the locking fork 330 to expand to contact the extended locking pin 310, so that the locking fork is fastened to at least a portion of the rod-shaped portion 313 of the locking pin 310. Therefore, the movable carrier device 10 can be locked in the space where the locking pin 310 is located.

[0057] The locking pin 310 includes: a housing 311 embedded inside the floor 500, the housing having a hole; a rod-shaped portion 313 located inside the hole and moving along the longitudinal direction of the hole; a plate-shaped portion 312 having a plane larger than the hole, the plate-shaped portion moving together with the rod-shaped portion 313 during the movement of the rod-shaped portion; and a pin stopper 314 located at the bottom of the rod-shaped portion 313 to prevent the rod-shaped portion 313 from separating from the housing 311 when the rod-shaped portion 313 moves.

[0058] The locking pin 310 is configured to project upward through the floor 500 when subjected to the magnetic force of the magnetic guiding section 320 located below the storage section 200 or the magnetic section 210, such that the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 is positioned to abut against the locking portion 323. Further, in a state where the locking portion 323 and the plate-like portion 312 are in contact, the locking fork 330 provided adjacent to the locking portion 323 below the storage section 200 expands toward the rod-like portion 313 and fastens to the rod-like portion.

[0059] As described above, according to the present disclosure, the plate-like portion 312 pops up / extends / projects by magnetic force, such that the locking fork 330 can expand toward the projected locking pin 310 and fasten to the projected locking pin, and thus the locking pin 310 and the magnetic guiding section 320 can provide a dual locking structure.

[0060] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic section 210 can be configured to insert the locking pin 310, and the locking fork 330 can expand to lock the locking pin 310. Thus, the magnetic section 210 can be held locked to the floor.

[0061] Figure 2 The locking relationship of the locking unit 300 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0062] As shown in the figure, the locking pin 310 located inside the floor 500 projects upward through the magnetic force of the magnetic guiding section 320 located inside the entrance portion 321 (which is recessed in the height direction of the storage section 200 or the magnetic section 210). That is, when the storage section 200 or the magnetic section 210 moves to a position corresponding to the locking pin 310, the locking pin 310 is configured to project upward through the floor 500. More preferably, the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 made of metal is configured to pop up in a direction close to the storage section 200 when the lower surface of the storage section 200 including the magnetic guiding section 320 is adjacent to the plate-like portion.

[0063] The inclined portion 322 of the magnetic guiding section 320 and the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 are configured to come into contact with each other first, and the storage section 200 is additionally moved such that the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 is configured to contact the locking portion 323 where the deepest shape of the entrance portion 321 is located. More preferably, the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 is configured to pop up by the magnetic force of the locking portion 323.

[0064] The inclined portions 322 are positioned at both ends of the locking portion 323 around the locking portion 323 in the longitudinal direction of the movable carrier device 10. Further, the inclined portions 322 are configured to be symmetric with respect to the center of the locking portion 323 at the same angle.

[0065] The magnetic force applied from the inclined portion 322 is less than the magnetic force applied from the locking portion 323. When the inclined portion 322 passes through the area where the locking pin 310 is located, the movable carrier device 10 is configured to slide on the floor 500. More preferably, the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 can be configured to extend to a predetermined position when the inclined portion 322 passes over the top of the plate-like portion 312. That is, the plate-like portion 312 located at a position corresponding to the inclined portion 322 can be configured such that the plate-like portion 312 extends to an area that does not interfere with the movement of the storage section 200.

[0066] The locking portion 323 is inside the entrance portion 321 and is the farthest from the top surface of the floor 500, but compared with the inclined portion 322, the locking portion can be set to have a strong magnetic force. The plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 extends through the upper surface of the floor 500 to contact one surface where the locking portion 323 of the entrance portion 321 is located.

[0067] Since the height of one end of the inclined portion 322 can be controlled by the controller 400, the inclination of the inclined portion 322 is controlled compared with the moving speed of the movable carrier device 10. Therefore, the time when the movable carrier device 10 interferes with the locking pin 310 can be reduced, thereby reducing the impact applied to the movable carrier device 10.

[0068] In addition, the magnetic force of the magnetic guide section 320 can be controlled by the controller 400. For example, in a state where the movable carrier device 10 moves to a position corresponding to the inclined portion 322, a magnetic force is applied to the inclined portion 322 and the locking portion 323, and the movable carrier device 10 is located in the area requested by the user such that the locking portion 323 and the locking pin 310 are closest to each other. Thus, the magnetic force of the locking portion 323 can be controlled by the controller 400 to have a maximum value.

[0069] The end of the locking fork 330 is formed like a jaw 331 to surround at least a part of two lateral sides of the rod-shaped portion 313. More preferably, the jaw 331 includes a first leading edge 332 and a second leading edge 333, which are configured to contact two lateral sides of the rod-shaped portion 313. Among them, the first leading edge 332 and the second leading edge 333 can be configured to be symmetric with each other or have different shapes from each other. In this way, the jaw 331 including the first leading edge 332 and the second leading edge 333 can be configured to absorb variations in terms of the shape of the rod-shaped portion 313 and the time when the rod-shaped portion 313 and the jaw 331 are fastened to each other, and can be configured such that one surface of the rod-shaped portion 313 contacts the inner surface of the jaw 331 located between the first leading edge 332 and the second leading edge 333. Therefore, the locking pin 310 is configured to be stably fastened to the locking unit 300.

[0070] Figure 3 and Figure 4 illustrate different embodiments of the magnetic guiding section 320.

[0071] In Figure 3 , the locking portion 323 with magnetic force and the inclined portion 322 are configured to be independently located within the entrance portion 321 below the storage section 200 or within the magnetic section 210 on the inner side of the storage section 200.

[0072] In contrast, Figure 4 illustrates another embodiment of the present disclosure including an integral portion with magnetic force. That is, the integrally formed magnetic guiding section 320 can be configured to have different heights, thereby creating a magnetic force difference between the edge and the center of the magnetic guiding section.

[0073] The magnetic guiding section 320 is configured to have a locking portion 323 and an inclined portion 322, where the locking portion is located at the deepest position of the entrance portion 321 and has the strongest magnetic force, and the inclined portion is located at the edge and can be configured to have a relatively lower magnetic force compared to the locking portion 323.

[0074] Thus, the magnetic guiding section 320 can be integrally configured or can be configured by a combination of magnetic bodies.

[0075] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the locking pin 310 is configured to be inserted at a position facing the lower surface of the magnetic section 210 that does not include a separate storage section 200, such that the locking pin 310 can be configured to bounce due to the magnetic guiding section 320 located at the magnetic section 210.

[0076] Figures 5A to 5C Successively illustrates the process of deploying the locking fork 330 at the position where the locking pin 310 faces the locking unit 300.

[0077] Figure 5A illustrates the situation where the storage section 200 moves to the upper surface of the locking pin 310 located on the floor 500, and Figure 5B illustrates such a configuration: where as the storage section 200 moves to a position corresponding to the locking pin 310, the locking pin 310 embedded in the floor 500 extends in the vertical direction in response to the magnetic force of the magnetic guiding section 320 located below the storage section or the magnetic section.

[0078] The magnetic guiding section 320 includes an inclined portion 322 and a locking portion 323, wherein the inclined portion 322 is located on both sides of the locking portion 323 in the moving direction of the storage section 200. The plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310 is configured to protrude upward through the upper surface of the floor 500 when the locking portion 323 moves to a position corresponding to the plate-like portion 312.

[0079] In the case of manually moving the storage section 200, when the locking portion 323 and the plate-like portion 312 are in contact with each other and the storage section 200 is further moved in one direction, a resistance is applied in the moving direction of the storage section 200 to allow the user to perceive that the locking pin 310 and the magnetic guiding section 320 can be fastened and locked in the corresponding area.

[0080] In Figure 5B In the illustrated embodiment, when the locking portion 323 moves to a position corresponding to the locking pin 310, the plate-like portion 312 protrudes to a position close to the storage section 200 by the magnetic force of the locking portion 323, and at least a part of the rod-like portion 313 fastened to the lower end of the plate-like portion 312 is configured to move integrally.

[0081] When the plate-like portion 312 of the protruding locking pin 310 contacts the locking portion 323, the controller 400 controls the locking fork 330 to expand around at least a part of two lateral sides where the plate-like portion 312 of the rod-like portion 313 is located. More preferably, the pawl 331 located at the end of the locking fork 330 is configured to include a first leading edge 332 and a second leading edge 333, wherein the inner surface of at least one leading edge in contact with the rod-like portion 313 forms an angle of 50 degrees to 70 degrees with respect to the moving direction of the storage section 200. In this way, the rod-like portion 313 is configured to absorb the deviation from the moving direction of the storage section 200, so that the locking fork 330 and the locking pin 310 are easily fastened to each other.

[0082] The controller 400 controls the expansion of the locking fork 330 in response to a signal indicating the contact between the locking portion 323 and the plate-like portion 312 of the locking pin 310. Alternatively, the controller 400 controls the expansion of the locking fork 330 by measuring the position of the storage section 200, and when the storage section 200 moves to the position where the locking pin 310 is to be located as requested by the user, the controller controls the expansion of the locking fork 330.

[0083] The foregoing detailed description is an illustration of the present disclosure. In addition, the above description shows and describes preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure can be used in a variety of other combinations, modifications, and environments. That is, changes or modifications can be made within the scope of the disclosed inventive concept of the present disclosure, equivalent to the disclosed content, and / or within the scope of the technology or knowledge in the art. The described embodiments show the best mode for implementing the technical idea of the present disclosure, and various changes may be required in the specific application fields and uses of the present disclosure.
