[0038] The following is a description of exemplary embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, including various details of the embodiments of the present invention to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Similarly, for clarity and conciseness, the description of well-known functions and structures is omitted in the following description.

[0039] It should be pointed out that the embodiments of the present invention and the technical features therein may be combined with each other without conflict.

[0040] The vehicle involved in the embodiment of the present invention may be a fuel vehicle, a hybrid vehicle using an engine and an electric motor as a power source, an electric vehicle using an electric motor as a power source, or the like.

[0041] In order to improve the riding experience of passengers, for example, to allow passengers to enjoy the scenery ahead with a wider field of vision during the ride, and to enjoy the scenery ahead without obstruction or with little obstruction, this embodiment provides a vehicle cabin structure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the vehicle comprises a cockpit 100 and a passenger compartment 200, wherein the cockpit 100 is arranged on the side close to the rear of the vehicle, and a driving position 101 and a vehicle control console 102 are arranged in the cockpit 100; the passenger compartment 200 is arranged on the side close to the front of the vehicle, and a plurality of seats 201 are arranged in the passenger compartment 200; the plurality of seats 201 are arranged towards the front of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the cockpit 100 can be arranged forward, that is, the driver can sit in the driving position 101 facing the front of the vehicle, and operate or control the vehicle control console 102, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, (the upper side of the figure is the front side, and the lower side is the rear side, which is applicable to all embodiments of the present invention); it can also be set in the reverse direction, that is, the driver can sit in the driving seat 101 facing the rear direction of the vehicle and operate or control the vehicle console 102, such as Figure 2 As shown; further, it can also be arranged to be left-facing or right-facing, that is, the driver can sit in the driving seat 101 facing the left or right of the vehicle's driving direction to operate or control the vehicle console 102. In addition, the multiple seats 201 can be arranged in one row or in multiple rows, facing the front direction of the vehicle, that is, when the occupants sit on the seats, they face the front direction of the vehicle, that is, the normal driving direction of the vehicle.

[0042] In order to save space in the vehicle cabin, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle console 102 is arranged below the rear windshield; the driving position 101 faces the rear of the vehicle, so that the driver sitting on the driving position 101 faces the rear of the vehicle to operate the vehicle console 102. In order to prevent the vehicle console 102 from occupying too much space in the vehicle cabin, the vehicle console 102 can be arranged below the vehicle windshield, occupying all or part of the space of the trunk in the original vehicle structure. For some vehicles with special purposes, the trunk is optional, so the rear vehicle console 102 can be arranged using the trunk space.

[0043] In order to ensure the safety of vehicle driving, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle console 102 includes a display screen, and the display screen is used to display the road conditions in front of the vehicle and on both sides of the vehicle, wherein the road conditions are collected by a vehicle-mounted camera. Since the cockpit 100 is rear-mounted, the driver's field of vision for observing the road conditions is limited. A camera can be installed in front of or on both sides of the vehicle to collect the road conditions in front of the vehicle and on both sides of the vehicle, and the display screen on the vehicle console 102 is used to display the road conditions, providing the driver with a driving reference, thereby improving driving safety. In the case where the cockpit 100 is set forward, a camera can also be installed at the rear of the vehicle to collect the road conditions behind the vehicle, and display the road conditions on the display screen to provide the driver with a driving reference, thereby further improving driving safety. In the case where the cockpit 100 is set in reverse, the driver operates the vehicle console 102 facing the rear of the vehicle, and can directly observe the road conditions behind the vehicle through the rear windshield, so the camera installed at the rear of the vehicle can be saved, thereby reducing the cost of the vehicle. In addition, the interior rearview mirror and exterior rearview mirror of the original vehicle structure can be omitted, further reducing the vehicle cost; and eliminating the interior rearview mirror reduces obstructions in the vehicle interior space and makes it more spacious. In addition, eliminating the exterior rearview mirror reduces wind resistance during vehicle driving and reduces fuel consumption.

[0044] In order to meet the various riding needs of passengers, such as the need for face-to-face communication in meetings or chats, in an embodiment of the present invention, the multiple seats 201 are rotatable seats; after being driven, the rotatable seats adjust the seat orientation so that adjacent seats face the same or opposite directions, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown. The front seats can be rotated 180 degrees to face the rear, so that the passengers sitting in the front seats can face the passengers sitting in the rear seats. The left seat can also be rotated 90 degrees to the right and the right seat can be rotated 90 degrees to the left, so that the passengers sitting in the left seat can face the passengers sitting in the right seat. This embodiment meets the needs of passengers for face-to-face communication through the rotation function of the seats, and improves the passengers' riding experience.

[0045] In order to meet the needs of passengers to place items, such as conference materials, food or entertainment items, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the automobile cabin structure further includes a table body 202, wherein the table body 202 is arranged between two adjacent seats for passengers sitting in the two adjacent seats to place items, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 Especially when passengers in two adjacent seats are meeting, chatting or engaging in recreational activities face to face, such as playing board games, the table body 202 can play a good role in placing items, providing greater convenience for the passengers.

[0046] In order to save space in the vehicle, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the table 202 is a movable structure; the table 202 is stored in any of the following structures: a first cavity reserved on the vehicle floor; a storage cavity on one side of the vehicle body; a storage cavity stored under the seat. In order to increase the activity space in the vehicle, the table 202 is set as a movable structure, and when in use, it is placed in a suitable position for passengers to use. When not in use, the table 202 is stored in a preset storage structure to reduce the occupation of space in the vehicle. Among them, the storage structure includes a cavity reserved on the vehicle floor, a cavity on one side of the vehicle body, or a cavity under the seat. The above cavity can be closed or not. In addition, when it is not convenient to set a cavity on the vehicle floor, on one side of the vehicle body, or under the seat, the table 202 can also be placed on the vehicle floor, leaning against the side of the vehicle body, or placed under the seat, without limitation. There is no limit on the number of tables, and the table can be one or more. There is no limitation on the position of the table when it is in use, and the table can be set at any position between any two seats as long as the space in the vehicle allows.

[0047] In order to further enrich the riding experience of passengers and better meet the diverse needs of passengers, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the automobile cabin structure further includes a display, which is arranged on the table body 202. When the display is not in use, the display is stored in the second cavity reserved by the table body 202. The display is arranged on the table body 202 to display content that passengers are interested in, such as conference material display, entertainment programs, news information, weather forecast, etc.

[0048] When passengers are sitting face to face, in order to simultaneously display content of interest to passengers sitting in opposite directions, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the display is a double-sided display, so that content can be displayed on both sides of the display, thereby meeting the content viewing needs of passengers in both orientations and further improving the passengers' riding experience.

[0049] In order to improve the reusability of the functional modules in the vehicle cabin, the vehicle cabin structure provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes: an armrest box 203 and a track 204 arranged on the vehicle floor, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown; after being driven, the armrest box 203 slides along the track 204 to between any two adjacent seats. The armrest box 203 usually uses its inner space to hold items and provide support for the passengers' arms. In order to improve the reusability of the armrest box 203, the armrest box 203 can be set to be movable so that two or more passengers can move the armrest box 203 between the seats where the passengers are when communicating face to face, so that the passengers can place items on the table of the armrest box 203, which plays the role of a table. And when the passengers do not need to place items on the table of the armrest box 203, the armrest box 203 can be moved to the initial position. In addition, the movement of the armrest box 203 is realized by the sliding member at the bottom of the armrest box 203 and the track 204 laid on the vehicle floor. The sliding member at the bottom of the armrest box 203 is engaged with the track 204. When the armrest box 203 is driven, it slides to the target position along the direction of the driving force and the extension direction of the track 204. The target position can be the position of the armrest box 203 when the driving force is withdrawn, or it can be a pre-set position, that is, once the armrest box 203 is driven, the armrest box 203 starts to move until it moves to the set position. The target position can be the position between any two seats, and there is no limitation on this. It should be noted that the laying direction of the track and the structure of the track are only for illustration, and the laying direction and structure of the track can also have other forms, which does not limit the structure of the automobile cabin of this embodiment.

[0050] The following describes in detail the method for using the automobile cabin structure of the embodiment of the invention through a specific application scenario.

[0051] When the vehicle is used as a sightseeing vehicle or a high-end business reception vehicle, all the vehicle seats are adjusted to face the front of the vehicle, and VIPs or important guests can be arranged to sit in the front row of the vehicle. Due to the rear placement of the cockpit, the passengers sitting in the front row of seats can see the scenery in front through the front windshield in front of the vehicle, so as to ensure their best riding experience.

[0052] The following describes in detail the method for using the automobile cabin structure of the embodiment of the invention through another specific application scenario.

[0053] When the passengers in the car need to hold a meeting in the car, the passengers in the front row rotate their seats 180 degrees to face the passengers in the back row. Figure 5, take out the movable table from the storage cavity and unfold it, place it between the front and rear seats, and take out the double-sided display from the cavity reserved in the table, fix it on the surface of the table, and display the meeting content through the double-sided display, so that the front and rear passengers on both sides of the table can watch the meeting content displayed on the display. This embodiment meets the needs of passengers to hold meetings in the car by rotating seats, tables, and displays, etc., and improves the passengers' car experience. It is understandable that passengers can also use the table to carry out entertainment activities in the car, such as card games, board games, etc., which greatly enriches the passengers' car experience. It is further understandable that in this application scenario, the left seat can also be rotated 90 degrees to the right, and the right seat can be rotated 90 degrees to the left, so that the passengers on the left and right sides are in a face-to-face state.

[0054] The following describes in detail the method for using the automobile cabin structure of an embodiment of the invention through another specific application scenario.

[0055] During long-distance driving, passengers in the car can relieve boredom and kill time by doing some entertainment activities in the car, such as playing poker. Passengers sitting on the left side of the vehicle can rotate their seats 90 degrees to the right, and passengers sitting on the right side of the vehicle can rotate their seats 90 degrees to the left, so that the passengers on the left and right sides are facing each other. Figure 6 . Slide the armrest box along the track to the position between the passengers on both sides. The table top of the armrest box can be used as a desktop to place items such as playing cards. Depending on the size of the table top, food or drinks can also be placed on it. This embodiment meets the entertainment needs of the passengers in the car by rotating the seats, armrest box, and tracks, thereby improving the passengers' car experience. It is understandable that the passengers can also use the table top of the armrest box as a desktop to place meeting materials, hold formal meetings in the car, etc., which greatly enriches the passengers' car experience. It is further understandable that in this application scenario, only the angle of the front seats can be rotated 180 degrees without rotating the rear seats.
