The outer wall of the slide-out box is flush with the outside of the vehicle or trailer during driving. When the vehicle stops, the slide-out chamber slides outward from the opening of the vehicle, thereby increasing the internal usable space of the vehicle.

[0003] Patent CN202111541306.4 discloses an RV expansion mechanism and an RV, in which the sliding mechanism is located under and on the side of the vehicle body, has no integrated setting, occupies a large space, is inconvenient to install, and runs unsteadily.

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventor believes that the existing telescopic mechanism of the vehicle slide-out box is relatively large, complicated to install, and expensive. Therefore, it is believed that the slide-out system of the vehicle slide-out box has the problems of occupying a large space, being inconvenient to use, and being difficult to install. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to improve the problem that the slide-out mechanism of the vehicle slide-out box has a large space occupation and is difficult to install, the present invention provides a combined rail type vehicle box two-stage slide-out system, the slide-out mechanism of the combined rail type vehicle box two-stage slide-out system is integrated and arranged at the bottom of both sides of the slide-out box, and the weight of the slide-out box is suspended and carried. The use of the slide-out mechanism in the vehicle slide-out system can save space and improve space utilization. Since the entire slide-out mechanism in the bearing box is integrated and connected to the bottom plate of the support frame, there is no need to disassemble the lower chassis of the vehicle body, and the installation and disassembly are convenient. Only the bottom plate of the support frame needs to be fixed on the vehicle body, and the entire slide-out box can be arranged at the opening of the vehicle body.

[0007] The present application provides a combined rail-type vehicle box two-stage slide-out system, which adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving device, the combined guide rail mechanism and part of the support frame are integrated in the carrying box, which can isolate the combined guide rail mechanism and the driving device from the outside world, facilitate installation and disassembly, have a beautiful appearance and can increase the internal use space of the vehicle. The carrying boxes are symmetrically arranged under the two sides of the slide-out box body and can be suspended to bear the weight of the slide-out box body.

[0010] Preferably, the driving device comprises a rack, a gear, a reducer and a motor. The rack is fixed on the side wall of the bearing box, the output shaft of the motor is connected to the reducer, the gear is fixed to the output shaft of the reducer by a retaining spring A and a retaining spring B, the motor drives the gear to rotate through the reducer, the tooth surface of the gear meshes with the tooth surface of the rack, and the rotational motion of the gear is converted into the linear motion of the rack.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving device converts the rotational motion of the gear into the linear motion of the rack, driving the slide-out box to slide out and retract.

[0029] 3. Since the entire combined guide rail mechanism inside the carrying box is integrated and connected to the support frame, there is no need to disassemble the lower chassis of the vehicle body. It is only necessary to fix the bottom plate of the support frame to the vehicle body, and then the entire slide-out box can be set at the opening of the vehicle body.

[0030] 4. The load-bearing box transfers the weight of the sliding box body to the combined guide rail, the combined guide rail transfers the weight to the support frame, and the support frame finally transfers the weight to the vehicle body.

[0031] 5. When the vehicle is driving, the box slides out and is flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body, which can reduce the impact of the external environment on the interior of the vehicle and has a beautiful appearance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
