Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0046] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used in the embodiments of this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0047] Future travel will involve transfers between different modes of transportation. Traditional transfer methods mostly involve passengers leaving the passenger cabin of one mode of transportation and then walking to the passenger cabin of another mode of transportation. This transfer method has low transfer efficiency. When transferring between the passenger cabins of ground transportation and the passenger cabins of air transportation, there are also problems such as inconvenience in getting in and out of air transportation, high risks in getting in and out, and large waiting space required.

[0048] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a means of transportation for improving passenger transfer efficiency between different passenger cabins.

[0049] To make the technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the vehicle provided in this application embodiment includes a first driving module 1 and a second driving module 2 that are independent of each other. The rear end area of ​​the first driving module 1 is provided with a first guide mechanism 11, and the front end area of ​​the second driving module 2 is provided with a second guide mechanism 21. The second guide mechanism 21 is used to dock with the first guide mechanism 11.

[0051] The first travel module 1 and / or the second travel module 2 are provided with a seat assembly 3. The seat assembly 3 includes a drive mechanism 31 and a seat body 32 that are connected by a transmission. The drive mechanism 31 is used to drive the seat body 32 to move along the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21, so that the seat assembly 3 can move between the first travel module 1 and the second travel module 2.

[0052] The first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 can be the same type of vehicle or different types of vehicles. The first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 can be land-based vehicles such as automobiles, aircraft, or water-based vehicles such as ships.

[0053] Both the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 can drive independently, such as Figure 1 As shown, the rear end of the first driving module 1 is connected to the front end of the second driving module 2. When the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 are connected, the internal space of the first driving module 1 and the internal space of the second driving module 2 are interconnected to form a transfer passage.

[0054] In some existing technologies, two different driving modules share the same passenger cabin, such as an aircraft and a car. Both the aircraft's propeller assembly and the car's chassis assembly are equipped with docking mechanisms for connecting to the passenger cabin. Users can transfer between air and land travel without leaving the passenger cabin, using these docking mechanisms. However, the docking mechanisms are often complex, and the design requirements for a passenger cabin as a car's cabin and as an aircraft's cabin are often different. A passenger cabin used in a car needs to meet collision regulations, while a passenger cabin used in an aircraft does not. Designing the passenger cabin according to automotive requirements would result in an excessively heavy cabin, affecting flight; designing it according to aircraft requirements would prevent the car from meeting safety regulations during operation.

[0055] In the vehicle provided in this application embodiment, the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 can both drive independently, and each has a separate passenger cabin. Not only can they achieve rapid transfer through the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21, but they can also ensure that the passenger cabins of the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 can meet the driving requirements.

[0056] Optionally, the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 can dock when both the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 are in a driving state, or when both the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 are in a stationary state.

[0057] Optionally, the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 can achieve automatic docking through position sensors, intelligent visual recognition, or other means, or they can achieve manual docking through the driver's driving operation.

[0058] Optionally, the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 can be linear guides, slider guides, or roller guides, etc.

[0059] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the front end of the seat assembly 3 faces the front end of the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2, and there can be one or more seat assemblies 3.

[0060] Specifically, both the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 extend in a straight line, which facilitates the seat assembly 3 to move back and forth in a straight line without the need for steering.

[0061] The transportation vehicle provided in this application embodiment, by setting a first guide mechanism 11 in the rear end region of the first driving module 1 and a second guide mechanism 21 in the front end region of the second driving module 2, enables the rear end of the first driving module 1 to connect with the front end of the second driving module 2 to form a transfer channel; after the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 are connected, the drive mechanism 31 can drive the seat body 32 to move along the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21, so that the passenger 4 on the seat body 32 can transfer from one passenger compartment to another passenger compartment without the need for the passenger 4 to transfer on foot, which greatly reduces the transfer time and improves the transfer efficiency.

[0062] In a further embodiment, the first driving module 1 is a land-based driving device, and the second driving module 2 is an aircraft or a water-based driving device.

[0063] like Figure 1 As shown, the first driving module 1 is a car, and the second driving module 2 is an aircraft.

[0064] The front of a car typically has a drive system, and its rear is easily accessible. In contrast, the front of an aircraft does not require large components, and its front is easily accessible. Therefore, by setting the first driving module 1 as a car and the second driving module 2 as an aircraft, existing cars and aircraft can be directly modified, reducing research and development costs and production costs.

[0065] In one embodiment, the first guide mechanism 11 includes two first grooves 111, which are arranged in parallel and spaced apart.

[0066] The second guide mechanism 21 includes two second grooves 211, which are arranged in parallel and spaced apart.

[0067] The first groove 111 and the second groove 211 have the same shape and size, and the distance between the two second grooves 211 is the same as the distance between the two first grooves 111.

[0068] The seat assembly 3 also includes a wheel 33, which is disposed at the bottom of the seat body 32, and at least a portion of the wheel 33 is located in a first groove 111 or a second groove 211.

[0069] like Figure 4As shown, the first groove 111 and the second groove 211 both extend in a straight line. The first groove 111 is recessed relative to the floor of the first driving module 1, and the second groove 211 is recessed relative to the floor of the second driving module 2.

[0070] For example, the cross-sectional profiles of the first groove 111 and the second groove 211 are both inverted triangles. The lowest point of each first groove 111 forms a first straight line 1111, and the lowest point of each second groove 211 forms a second straight line 2111. When the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21 are connected, the extension lines of the first straight line 1111 and the second straight line 2111 coincide. The wheel 33 can move back and forth along the first straight line 1111 and the second straight line 2111 to transfer between the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2.

[0071] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the seat assembly 3 also includes a seat base 34, which is located at the bottom of the seat body 32. The seat base 34 is equipped with four wheels 33. Two wheels 33 arranged opposite each other along the width direction of the seat body 32 are connected by a connecting shaft 35, and the wheel spacing between the two wheels 33 arranged opposite each other along the width direction of the seat body 32 is the same as the distance between the two first grooves 111. The connecting shaft 35 is rotatably connected to the seat base 34 and can rotate around its own central axis, thereby driving the wheels 33 to rotate.

[0072] Optionally, a buffer 36 is provided between the seat base frame 34 and the seat body 32. The buffer 36 is a device such as rubber, spring, or suspension, used for buffering and shock absorption.

[0073] Optionally, a seat belt 313 is also provided on the seat body 32 to protect the safety of passenger 4.

[0074] For example, the drive mechanism 31 is a motor. The stator and housing of the drive mechanism 31 are fixedly connected to the seat base 34, and the rotor of the drive mechanism 31 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 35. Therefore, when the rotor of the drive mechanism 31 rotates, it can drive the connecting shaft 35 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the wheel 33 to rotate, so that the seat assembly 3 moves along the first guide mechanism 11 and the second guide mechanism 21.

[0075] For example, such as Figure 6 or Figure 7 As shown, the seat assembly 3 also includes a battery 37, which is mounted on the seat base 34 and is used to power the various electrical devices of the seat assembly 3.

[0076] In one embodiment, a seat controller 38 is provided on the seat body 32. The seat controller 38 is electrically connected to the drive mechanism 31 and is used to control the motion state of the drive mechanism 31.

[0077] The seat controller 38 can be a button, joystick, touch screen, etc. By operating the seat controller 38, the passenger 4 can control the start, stop, speed, and steering of the drive mechanism 31, thereby causing the seat assembly 3 to move forward, backward, or stop.

[0078] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, the seat controller 38 is a lever that can be moved forward, backward, and return to its initial position.

[0079] Specifically, when passenger 4 moves seat controller 38 forward, seat assembly 3 moves forward along the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21; when passenger 4 moves seat controller 38 backward, seat assembly 3 moves backward along the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21; when passenger 4 releases seat controller 38, seat controller 38 springs back to its initial position, and seat assembly 3 stops moving.

[0080] This setting enables the passenger 4 on the seat body 32 to control the movement of the seat assembly 3, thereby improving the flexibility of the seat assembly 3.

[0081] In one embodiment, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first driving module 1 is also provided with a first limiting mechanism 12, which is located in front of the first guiding mechanism 11.

[0082] like Figure 9 As shown, the second driving module 2 is also provided with a second limiting mechanism 22, which is located behind the first guiding mechanism 11.

[0083] The first limiting mechanism 12 and the second limiting mechanism 22 are both used to limit the range of movement of the seat assembly 3.

[0084] For example, the first limiting mechanism 12 and the second limiting mechanism 22 are limiting blocks protruding relative to the floor. The first limiting mechanism 12 is located at the front end of the transfer passage of the vehicle, and the second limiting mechanism 22 is located at the rear end of the transfer passage of the vehicle. The first limiting mechanism 12 and the second limiting mechanism 22 define the extreme positions of the seat assembly 3 in the front-rear direction.

[0085] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the height of the first limiting mechanism 12 and the second limiting mechanism 22 is greater than the lower edge of the seat base 34, and the seat assembly 3 can abut against the first limiting mechanism 12 or the second limiting mechanism 22.

[0086] When passenger 4 controls the movement of seat assembly 3 through seat controller 38, if seat assembly 3 comes into contact with the first limiting mechanism 12 or the second limiting mechanism 22, passenger 4 can know that seat assembly 3 has reached the limit position, thereby stopping the operation of seat controller 38 and switching seat assembly 3 to braking state.

[0087] In a further embodiment, the seat assembly 3 further includes at least two first fixing mechanisms 39, which are distributed on both sides of the seat body 32 in the width direction.

[0088] The first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 are respectively provided with a plurality of second fixing mechanisms 13. The second fixing mechanisms 13 are installed on the inner wall of the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2, and the second fixing mechanisms 13 are used to be detachably connected to the first fixing mechanism 39.

[0089] For example, a first fixing mechanism 39 is provided on both sides of the seat body 32 in the width direction, and a second fixing mechanism 13 is provided on the inner walls of both sides of the first driving module 1 and the second driving module 2 in the width direction.

[0090] The first fixing mechanism 39 and the second fixing mechanism 13 are used to limit the position of the seat assembly 3. Figure 10 As shown, when the first fixing mechanism 39 and the second fixing mechanism 13 are connected, the seat assembly 3 is fixed in place, preventing the seat assembly 3 from moving along the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21 during driving, thus avoiding safety hazards; Figure 11 As shown, when the first fixing mechanism 39 and the second fixing mechanism 13 are separated, the seat assembly 3 can move along the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21 to facilitate transfer between the first travel module 1 and the second travel module 2.

[0091] For example, the first fixing mechanism 39 is a car seat belt buckle, and the second fixing mechanism 13 includes a car seat belt 131 and a car seat belt retractor 132. The seat belt retractor 132 is fixed on the inner wall of the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2. The seat belt 131 is wound in the seat belt retractor 132 and can be connected or separated from the seat belt buckle.

[0092] Furthermore, the second fixing mechanism 13 is communicatively connected to the control system of the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2, and the second fixing mechanism 13 can disconnect from the first fixing mechanism 39 according to the signal sent by the control system.

[0093] With this setting, when the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2 encounters a dangerous situation and sends a danger signal through the control system, the second fixing mechanism 13 receives the danger signal and disconnects from the first fixing mechanism 39, so that the seat assembly 3 can move to other safer positions.

[0094] Specifically, both the rear end of the first travel module 1 and the front end of the second travel module 2 have hatches, which are communicatively connected to the control system of the first travel module 1 or the second travel module 2. The drive mechanism 31 is also communicatively connected to the control system of the first travel module 1 or the second travel module 2. The seat assembly 3 also includes a life-saving device 310, which is mounted on the seat body 32.

[0095] For example, the first driving module 1 is a car, the second driving module 2 is an aircraft, and the life-saving device 310 is a parachute. The life-saving device 310 is located on the back of the seat body 32. When the control system of the second driving module 2 determines that a dangerous situation is in place, it issues a danger signal. The hatch receives the danger signal and opens, the second fixing mechanism 13 receives the danger signal and disconnects from the first fixing mechanism 39, and the drive mechanism 31 receives the danger signal and drives the wheels 33 to rotate, causing multiple seat assemblies 3 to move forward automatically in sequence and leave the aircraft. Subsequently, the life-saving device 310 opens, allowing the passenger 4 to escape safely. During the parachute jump, the seat belt 313 ensures that the passenger 4 remains connected to the seat body 32, improving safety.

[0096] In one embodiment, the seat assembly 3 further includes a braking system 311, which is communicatively connected to the control system of the first driving module 1 or the second driving module 2, and is used to control the wheels 33 to stop moving.

[0097] For example, the braking system 311 applies a certain force to the wheels 33 of the seat assembly 3, thereby forcibly braking them. Since the braking system 311 is communicatively connected to the control system, it can control the seat body 32 to stop moving or release the movement restriction on the seat body 32 according to the signal sent by the control system. The braking system 311 is also electrically connected to the seat controller 38. When the seat controller 38 is in the initial state, the braking system 311 controls the seat assembly 3 to be in a braking state. When the seat controller 38 instructs the seat body 32 to move forward or backward, the braking system 311 releases the brake on the seat assembly 3.

[0098] For example Figure 12 As shown, the process of escaping by parachute using the life-saving device 310 when the second driving module 2 of the aircraft encounters danger includes:

[0099] S1: The control system issues a danger signal when it determines that a dangerous situation is in progress;

[0100] S2: The hatch receives a danger signal and opens;

[0101] S3: The second fixing mechanism 13 corresponding to the seat assembly 3 closest to the cabin door receives a danger signal and disconnects from the first fixing mechanism 39;

[0102] S4: The braking system 311 of the seat assembly 3 closest to the hatch is released;

[0103] S5: The drive mechanism 31 of the seat assembly 3 closest to the cabin door receives the danger signal and drives the wheels 33 to rotate, so that the seat assembly 3 moves forward automatically and leaves the aircraft. Then the life-saving device 310 is opened, allowing the passenger 4 to escape safely.

[0104] S6: Determine whether there is a seat assembly 3 inside the second driving module 2. If yes, repeat steps S3 to S5; otherwise, end the process.

[0105] In one embodiment, there are multiple seat assemblies 3, and at least some of the seat assemblies 3 are distributed along the length direction of the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21.

[0106] The seat assembly 3 also includes a footrest 312, which is mounted on the seat body 32 and extends relative to the seat body 32 along the length of the first guide mechanism 11 or the second guide mechanism 21. When the footrest 312 comes into contact with the first guide mechanism 11, the second guide mechanism 21, or an adjacent seat assembly 3, the braking system 311 controls the wheels 33 to stop moving.

[0107] like Figure 5 As shown, the footrest 312 is mounted on the seat base 34 and extends forward relative to the seat body 32 to provide support for the feet of passenger 4.

[0108] During the movement of multiple seat components 3 from the first driving module 1 to the second driving module 2, the seat component 3 located at the rear end moves to abut against the second limiting mechanism 22, and the braking system 311 controls the wheels 33 to stop moving, and the seat component 3 is in a braking state; when the back of other seat components 3 abuts against the footrest 312 of the adjacent seat component 3, the braking system 311 controls the wheels 33 to stop moving, completing the transfer limiting.
