Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile cockpits, and in particular to a new device for forming an ultra-large flat space in the rear row of an SUV and a method for using the same. Background Art
[0002] As people's demands for automotive comfort and practicality continue to rise, the design of vehicle cabin functionality is also becoming increasingly sophisticated. Many existing SUV models strive to provide larger and more comfortable interiors to meet the diverse needs of long-distance travel. In this context, functional cabin design has become crucial for enhancing in-vehicle comfort. Many automakers are currently striving to achieve larger and more comfortable cabins, achieving a perfect balance between functionality and comfort, thereby optimizing the user experience.
[0003] However, existing cabin technology has significant drawbacks. The space created by folding the rear seats flat is insufficient. The total usable space is limited to the trunk lid plus the folded backrest, which is only about 1.5 meters long. This makes it impossible for an adult to stretch out and lie flat. Furthermore, the air conditioning vents and other functional features at the end of the center armrest are blocked when the seats are folded flat. This limited space and lack of functionality limits vehicle functionality and passenger comfort, making it impossible to achieve a flat reclining experience during long journeys or resting. The cramped space is only suitable for temporary cargo transport. To address this issue, a novel device has been proposed to create an ultra-large, flat rear space in an SUV. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a new device for forming an extra-large flat space in the rear seat of an SUV and its use method, which solves two key problems in the existing SUV car cabin technology: the narrow space when the rear seat backrests are folded flat and the blocking of functions such as the rear air-conditioning outlets.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: Preferably, a new device for forming an extra-large flat space in the rear row of an SUV car and a method for using the same include a car body, a front seat is arranged inside the car body, a rear end of a central armrest is slidably connected inside the car body, an air-conditioning outlet is provided inside the rear end of the central armrest, a rear backrest is rotatably connected inside the car body, and an embedded headrest is slidably connected inside the rear backrest.
[0006] Preferably, a sliding lower slide is provided at the bottom of the front seat, and an upper slide is slidably connected inside the front seat.
[0007] Preferably, a trunk cover is fixedly connected to the interior of the vehicle body, a rear seat cushion is provided inside the vehicle body, a short sliding slot is provided inside the rear seat cushion, and a long sliding slot is provided inside the rear seat cushion.
[0008] Preferably, a rear three-section telescopic slide rail is provided inside the vehicle body, and one end of the rear three-section telescopic slide rail is rotatably connected to the inside of the short sliding slot.
[0009] Preferably, a rocker arm bracket is rotatably connected inside the vehicle body, and the other end of the rocker arm bracket is rotatably connected inside the long sliding slot.
[0010] A novel device for forming an ultra-large flat space in the rear seat of an SUV and a method for using the device include the following steps: S1. Move the front seat forward to the end stop using the front lower slide, then move it forward a second time using the front upper slide. Simultaneously, lift the rear end of the center armrest diagonally upward to avoid obstruction of the air vents and other functions while leaving enough space for the rear seat cushion to move forward. S2. The rear seat cushions move forward by sliding the three-stage telescopic rails and rotating the rocker brackets, ultimately landing on the platform reserved after the front seats are extended. The rocker brackets flip forward to their end positions, automatically supporting the rear end of the seat cushions. S3. The rear seatback retracts the headrest and then folds down. The headrest is pressed against the rocker bracket connecting plate so that its back is flush with the rear seat cushion and trunk lid that move forward, creating a large, flat space throughout the rear row. In addition to creating an extra-large flat space, a slight movement of the rear three-stage telescopic slide raises the rear seat cushion's tail end. Rotating the rocker bracket also rotates it. When the rear seat cushion is vertically upright, it naturally drops down through the short sliding slot, and the connecting shaft on the rocker bracket automatically drops to the bottom of the long sliding slot. It is then erected between the front and rear seats. The rear seatback is then folded forward to press the rocker bracket, securing the upright seat cushion between the front and rear seats. The folded rear seatback and the trunk lid create space for cargo. Other configurations can be freely combined as needed. How it works: When the driver needs to rest after a long journey, they can push the front seats forward twice using the front upper and lower slides, thereby freeing up enough space for the rear seat cushion to move forward. The rear end of the center armrest is also raised diagonally upward, allowing the rear air-conditioning vents and other functions to be used normally without being blocked. This also leaves space for the middle part of the rear seat cushion to move forward. The driver then uses the rear three-section telescopic slides and rocker brackets to move the rear seat cushion forward, finally connecting to the top of the base reserved after the front seats have moved forward twice. After completing these steps, the rear seatback can be folded down with the headrest retracted into the groove, so that the seatback is flush with the rear seat cushion and the trunk lid. By sliding the rear seat cushions forward approximately 50 centimeters, the rear cabin reaches approximately two meters of unrestricted space. This truly achieves the ultimate in SUV rear-seat functionality, fulfilling the modern consumer's demand for extra-large, flat-floor space. Through the ingenious coordination of these structures and processes, the all-new flat-lay seat configuration significantly enhances comfort during long journeys, allowing for optimal rest and ultimately elevating the cabin's unrestricted experience. This optimized space utilization also supports the vehicle's versatility. When hauling cargo, the rear seat's three-stage telescopic rails can be extended outward, lifting the rear seat cushions upward. Once vertical, they naturally descend through the short sliding slots at the front of the telescopic rails. The top connecting shaft of the rocker arm automatically slides down to the bottom of the long sliding slots. The rear backrest can then be folded forward, securing the rear seat cushions upright between the front and rear seats, creating a small, temporary cargo-hauling space. The system can be configured to accommodate various modes according to individual needs.
[0011] The present invention provides a novel device and method for creating an ultra-large flat space in the rear seat of an SUV. It has the following beneficial effects: The present invention utilizes double-layered slides within the vehicle body to stretch the front seats forward twice, leaving sufficient space for the rear seat cushions to move forward. The rear end of the center armrest within the vehicle body incorporates functions such as rear air conditioning vents. This rear end of the center armrest, which incorporates functions such as rear air conditioning vents, can be raised diagonally upward to allow the vents to rise above the seat cushions for normal use, while also leaving space for the rear seat cushions to move forward. The vehicle body includes rear seats, each with a three-section telescopic slide and rocker bracket at the bottom of the rear seat cushions, which can be linked to the seat cushions for forward translation. The increased space within the vehicle body, including the trunk lid, the flattened rear seat backrests, and the forward-moving seat cushions, creates the ultimate in the ultra-large, flat-bed space of the rear seat of the patented SUV. This addresses the limited space available when traditional rear seats are folded flat and the obstruction of functions such as air conditioning vents, improves vehicle flexibility, enhances the comfort of the cabin bed function, and satisfies the needs of long-distance travel and rest. As needed, the rear seat cushions can be erected to convert the car into a small space for hauling cargo. The car can also be switched between multiple functional modes at will according to personal needs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
