Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0030] The embodiment of the present application first provides a multifunctional vehicle cockpit, which can be applied to sedans, multi-purpose vehicles, mid-sized vehicles or large vehicles; alternatively, the multifunctional vehicle cockpit can also be applied to fuel vehicles, hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, etc.

[0031] In one embodiment, see Figure 1-4 , Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the first embodiment of the multifunctional vehicle cockpit provided by this application. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 The structural diagram of the second seat mechanism, Figure 3 This is a structural diagram of the second embodiment of the multifunctional vehicle cockpit provided by this application. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of the second seat mechanism. Figure 1-4 As shown, the multifunctional vehicle cabin includes a floor mechanism 10 , a first seat mechanism 20 and a second seat mechanism 30 .

[0032] The first seat mechanism 20 is arranged on the floor mechanism 10, and the first seat mechanism 20 is used as a cockpit for the driver to perform driving operations; the second seat mechanism 30 is arranged on the floor mechanism 10 and is located on one side of the first seat mechanism 20, and the second seat mechanism 30 includes a plurality of support plates, and two adjacent support plates are rotatably connected; the second seat mechanism 30 has a seat state and a partition state, and the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state, and the second seat mechanism 30 is used for passengers to sit; at least one support plate of the second seat mechanism 30 rotates relative to the floor mechanism 10, and the second seat mechanism 30 switches from the seat state to the partition state, and the second seat mechanism 30 is used to isolate the cockpit so that the second seat mechanism 30 is away from the side of the cockpit to form a riding space or a cargo space.

[0033] Specifically, the floor structure 10 serves as the floor of the vehicle's cabin. It includes a floor assembly and floor beams, including but not limited to longitudinal and transverse beams. The floor beams are welded to the floor assembly, allowing the floor structure 10 to bear vehicle body loads and transmit impact forces. A first seat mechanism 20 and a second seat mechanism 30 are mounted on the floor structure 10, providing a mounting base for the seats. The first seat mechanism 20, which can be understood as the vehicle's front seats, comprises a driver's seat and a passenger seat, serving as the driver's cockpit to assist the driver in operating and controlling the vehicle.

[0034] The second seat mechanism 30 is located on the side of the floor mechanism 10 away from the first seat mechanism 20. It comprises multiple support plates, each of which is connected to the other via a pivoting connection, allowing the second seat mechanism 30 to be flexibly adjusted in angle or position. Therefore, by adjusting the pivoting relationship of at least one of the support plates, the second seat mechanism 30 can be positioned in a seating position, where it accommodates passengers; or in a partition position, where it can function as a partition separating the cockpit, creating either a passenger space or a cargo space on the side away from the cockpit. This allows for flexible division and diverse uses of the cabin space.

[0035] The vehicle cabin of this embodiment can be applied to a passenger vehicle with three rows of seats. For example, the multifunctional vehicle cabin also includes a third seat mechanism, and the second seat mechanism 30 is configured to be adjusted to a partition state to serve as a privacy partition separating the first seat mechanism 20 from the third seat mechanism, thereby facilitating privacy separation between the occupants of the third seat mechanism and the occupants of the first seat mechanism 20. Alternatively, the vehicle cabin of this embodiment can also be applied to a vehicle with two rows of seats. When the vehicle has logistics and freight needs, the second seat mechanism 30 is configured to be adjusted to a partition state to serve as a partition to separate the front driver's cabin from the rear cargo space, thereby achieving separation of people and cargo (luggage), while also increasing cargo (luggage) capacity.

[0036] Through the above-mentioned technical features, the second seat mechanism 30 of the present application can provide passengers with a comfortable riding experience in the seated state. The second seat mechanism 30 can also serve as a privacy shield for the cockpit, isolating the cockpit from the rear space in the partition state, allowing the rear space to be used as a private passenger space or a dedicated cargo space. Therefore, the solution of this embodiment allows the rear space of the vehicle cabin to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. It can be used for the classified storage of people and goods (luggage) to improve the cargo volume ratio, and can also be used to form a private passenger space to meet the diverse needs of different scenarios. In addition, the state switching achieved by the rotation connection of the support plate can effectively improve the space utilization of the vehicle cabin while reducing the complexity of the structure.

[0037] In one embodiment, the second seat mechanism 30 includes a first support plate 31, a second support plate 32, and a third support plate 33. One side of the first support plate 31 is connected to the floor mechanism 10, and the other side of the first support plate 31 is connected to the third support plate 33 via the second support plate 32. The second support plate 32 rotates relative to the first support plate 31 and the third support plate 33, respectively, to switch the second seat mechanism 30 between a seat state and a partition state.

[0038] Specifically, when the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat position, a first preset angle is defined between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32. This allows the first support plate 31 to support the second support plate 32. The second support plate 32's surface is parallel to the ground, allowing the second support plate 32 to serve as a seat cushion for the occupant. A second preset angle is defined between the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33, allowing the third support plate 33 to serve as a backrest cushion for the occupant. Thus, the occupant can sit comfortably on the second seat mechanism 30. To adjust the second seat mechanism 30 to a partition position, at least one of the first, second, and third support plates 31, 32, and 33 can be rotated, causing the second support plate 32 to rotate relative to the other two support plates. This adjusts the angle between the first and second support plates 31, 32 to the third preset angle, and the angle between the second and third support plates 32, 33 to the fourth preset angle. This allows the first, second, and third support plates 31, 32, and 33 to unfold and form a partition, thereby providing visual isolation and other functions.

[0039] One end of the first support plate 31 is fixedly or adjustably connected to the floor mechanism 10, while the other end of the first support plate 31 is connected to the third support plate 33 via the second support plate 32. This allows the first support plate 31 to serve as the primary load-bearing structure of the second seat mechanism 30. The second support plate 32, acting as an intermediate connector, can rotate relative to the first and third support plates 31, 33, respectively. This design provides flexibility and adjustability for the entire second seat mechanism 30. In a possible embodiment, the first, second, and third support plates 31, 32, 33 may be made of high-strength, lightweight materials to ensure structural stability and light weight. Alternatively, the first, second, and third support plates 31, 32, 33 may be equipped with cushioning pads, ergonomically designed curved support structures, or other features to enhance the riding experience. The specific requirements can be determined based on actual needs and are not specifically limited herein.

[0040] Therefore, the multifunctional vehicle cabin of this embodiment allows the second support plate 32 to rotate relative to the other two support plates, enabling flexible switching between the second row of seats and a partition. This increases the cabin's functional versatility and enhances space efficiency within the vehicle cabin. Specifically, the second seat mechanism 30 in the vehicle cabin can be quickly converted into a partition when not in use, optimizing the interior layout. Furthermore, the adjustable support plate structure ensures stability and safety in both seat and partition configurations. Furthermore, the modular design of the second seat mechanism 30 facilitates maintenance, allowing users to adjust the angles between the support plates as needed, enhancing the cabin's practicality and user experience.

[0041] Alternatively, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 is a structural diagram of an embodiment of the first support plate provided in this application, Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the second support plate provided by this application. Figure 5 As shown, the first support plate 31 includes a first plate body 311, a first mounting groove 312 and a second mounting groove 313, and the first mounting groove 312 and the second mounting groove 313 are respectively arranged at both ends of the first plate body 311. The second seat mechanism 30 also includes a first rotating shaft 34 and a second rotating shaft 35. The floor mechanism 10 includes a third mounting groove 11; one end of the first plate body 311 is connected to the first rotating shaft 34 through the first mounting groove 312, and the first rotating shaft 34 is clamped in the third mounting groove 11. The other end of the first plate body 311 is connected to the second rotating shaft 35 through the second mounting groove 313, and the second rotating shaft 35 is rotatably connected to the second support plate 32.

[0042] Specifically, the first plate 311 forms the main portion of the first support plate 31. A first mounting slot 312 and a second mounting slot 313 are provided at either end of the first plate 311. The first plate 311 is connected to the first rotating shaft 34 via the first mounting slot 312, and the second plate 321 is connected to the second rotating shaft 35 via the second mounting slot 313. The third mounting slot 11 of the floor mechanism 10 is used to receive the first rotating shaft 34, connecting the floor mechanism 10 to the first support plate 31 via the first rotating shaft 34. The first support plate 31 can rotate in conjunction with the floor mechanism 10 to adjust the rotation of the first plate 311 and the floor mechanism 10. Therefore, the first plate 311 can be rotated and adjusted based on the passenger's needs, providing support for the passenger's legs, or the second seat mechanism 30 can be adjusted to function as a partition.

[0043] In a possible embodiment, both ends of the first rotating shaft 34 can be fixed to the third mounting groove 11. In this case, the relative fixation of the first rotating shaft 34 can also be achieved by fixing parts, clamping, retaining springs, pins and other components, which are not specifically limited here. Part of the shaft body of the first rotating shaft 34 is connected to the first mounting groove 312, so that the first plate body 311 can achieve rotational movement around the first rotating shaft 34 through the first mounting groove 312. Part of the shaft body of the second rotating shaft 35 is connected to the second mounting groove 313 of the first support plate 31, and another part of the shaft body of the second rotating shaft 35 is connected to the fifth mounting groove 322 of the second support plate 32, so that the first plate body 311 can achieve rotational movement around the second rotating shaft 35 through the second mounting groove 313. Further, as Figure 6As shown, the second support plate 32 includes a second plate body 321, a fifth mounting slot 322 and a sixth mounting slot 323. The fifth mounting slot 322 and the sixth mounting slot 323 are respectively provided at both ends of the second plate body 321. The second seat mechanism 30 also includes a third rotating shaft 36. The third support plate 33 includes a seventh mounting slot. A portion of the shaft body of the third rotating shaft 36 is connected to the sixth mounting slot 323 of the second support plate 32, and another portion of the shaft body of the third rotating shaft 36 is connected to the seventh mounting slot of the third support plate 33. Therefore, the second plate body 321 can realize rotational movement around the second rotating shaft 35 and / or the third rotating shaft 36, and the third support plate 33 can realize rotational movement around the third rotating shaft 36.

[0044] Through the above-mentioned structural design, the first support plate 31 can be flexibly connected to the second seat mechanism 30 and the floor mechanism 10, so that the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be adjusted at multiple angles. The adjustment method is simple and easy to implement. Users can adjust the angles between the support plates according to actual needs, which improves the practicality and user experience of the cabin as a whole.

[0045] Further, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 This is a schematic structural diagram of the third embodiment of the multifunctional vehicle cockpit provided by this application. Figure 8 yes Figure 7 A magnified view of the structure of part A. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the floor mechanism 10 includes a first floor assembly 12, a second floor assembly 13 and a connecting plate 14, the first seat mechanism 20 is arranged on the first floor assembly 12, the height of the second floor assembly 13 is greater than the height of the first floor assembly 12, the first floor assembly 12 and the second floor assembly 13 are connected by the connecting plate 14, the second seat mechanism 30 also includes a third rotating shaft 36, and the second support plate 32 is connected to the third support plate 33 by the third rotating shaft 36; wherein, the floor mechanism 10 also includes a fourth mounting groove 15, the third mounting groove 11 is provided on the side of the connecting plate 14 close to the first floor assembly 12, the fourth mounting groove 15 is provided on the side of the connecting plate 14 close to the second floor assembly 13, and the third rotating shaft 36 is clamped in the fourth mounting groove 15 so that the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state.

[0046] Specifically, the third mounting slot 11 is located between the first floor assembly 12 and the connecting plate 14 and is used to mount a first rotating shaft 34 to secure one side of the first support plate 31 to the floor assembly. The fourth mounting slot 15 is located between the second floor assembly 13 and the connecting plate 14 and is used to mount a third rotating shaft 36 to fix the angle between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32, as well as the angle between the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33. This ensures that the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are at a first predetermined angle, and the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33 are at a second predetermined angle, and the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat position.

[0047] The height of the second floor assembly 13 is greater than that of the first floor assembly 12. This can be understood as meaning that, when the vehicle is on the ground, the height of the first floor assembly 12 relative to the ground is less than the height of the second floor assembly 13 relative to the ground, or that the height difference between the second floor assembly 13 and the first floor assembly 12 is a positive number. Therefore, when the third rotating shaft 36 is engaged with the fourth mounting slot 15, the second rotating shaft 35 can be positioned flush with the third rotating shaft 36, so that the surface of the second support plate 32 is parallel to the ground, facilitating seating for passengers on the second support plate 32. Furthermore, the height difference between the second floor assembly 13 and the first floor assembly 12 can be designed based on the actual seating requirements of the passengers, for example, based on the height of a humanoid seat, and is not specifically limited here.

[0048] In a possible embodiment, both ends of the third rotating shaft 36 can be fixed to the fourth mounting slot 15. In this case, the third rotating shaft 36 can be relatively fixed by fixing parts, clamping parts, retaining springs, pins, and other components to maintain the relative fixation between the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33. Furthermore, to maintain the stability of the second support plate 32, a device for locking the rotating shaft, fixing the position, or providing support can be provided on the second rotating shaft 35. The specific selection can be based on actual needs and is not specifically limited here.

[0049] Therefore, the multifunctional vehicle cabin of this embodiment can be configured with first and second floor assemblies 12 and 13 of different heights. This ensures that when the third rotating shaft 36 is engaged with the fourth mounting groove 15, the second rotating shaft 35 is accurately fixed. The second support plate 32 forms a seating surface for the occupant, ensuring the positional stability and safety of the seat mechanism. This allows for the multi-purpose functionality of the cabin space and meets the needs of users in various scenarios. Furthermore, the connecting plate 14 securely connects the two floor assemblies, enhancing the overall stability of the second seat mechanism 30.

[0050] Optionally, the multifunctional automobile cabin also includes a top panel mechanism 40, which is located above the floor mechanism 10. The top panel mechanism 40 is provided with a positioning groove 41. The second seat mechanism 30 also includes a third rotating shaft 36. One side of the third support plate 33 is connected to the second support plate 32 through the third rotating shaft 36, and the other side of the third support plate 33 is engaged with the positioning groove 41 to put the second seat mechanism 30 in a partition state.

[0051] Specifically, the top plate mechanism 40 is located above the floor mechanism 10. A positioning groove 41 is provided on the top plate mechanism 40 for positioning and fixing the third support plate 33 when the second seat mechanism 30 is in the partition state. The third support plate 33 of the second seat mechanism 30 is connected to the second support plate 32 via a third rotating shaft 36. When the second seat mechanism 30 is required to act as a partition to isolate the cockpit from the rear space, the first support plate 31, the second support plate 32, and the third support plate 33 are unfolded and form a partition as a whole by adjusting the rotation angle between the third support plate 33 and the second support plate 32, and adjusting the rotation angle between the second support plate 32 and the first support plate 31. One side of the first support plate 31 is clamped to the third mounting groove 11 of the floor structure, and one side of the third support plate 33 is clamped to the positioning groove 41 of the top plate mechanism 40. Therefore, the multifunctional car cabin of this embodiment fixes the two ends of the second seat mechanism 30 to the floor mechanism 10 and the roof mechanism 40 respectively, so that the second seat mechanism 30 is unfolded as a whole and serves as a partition to separate the cockpit and the rear space. The rear space can be used separately as a passenger space or a cargo space, making the layout of the car cabin more flexible and diversified, meeting the diverse needs of the car cabin in different scenarios.

[0052] Optionally, in one embodiment, the second seat mechanism 30 further includes a gripping member 37 , and the gripping member 37 is disposed on a side of the third support plate 33 facing away from the first seat mechanism 20 .

[0053] Specifically, the grip 37 is used by a user to pull up the third support plate 33 and adjust the height of the third support plate 33, the angle between the third support plate 33 and the second support plate 32, and other factors, thereby facilitating the user's adjustment of the second seat mechanism 30 between the seat position and the partition position. When a third seat mechanism is provided behind the second seat mechanism 30, the grip 37 can also enhance the passenger's grip stability while the vehicle is moving or parked, making it more convenient and comfortable for passengers to get on and off the vehicle or adjust their seat position.

[0054] Optionally, in another embodiment, the second seat mechanism 30 further includes a drive assembly and a controller, the drive assembly being connected to the first rotating shaft 34, the second rotating shaft 35 and the third rotating shaft 36 respectively, the controller being connected to the drive assembly and the operating system of the vehicle respectively, and the controller being configured to control the rotation of at least one of the first rotating shaft 34, the second rotating shaft 35 and the third rotating shaft 36 upon receiving a state adjustment instruction so as to adjust the second seat mechanism 30 to a seat state or a partition state.

[0055] Among them, the driving component can drive the rotating shaft through, but is not limited to, a motor, an electromagnet, an electromagnetic brake, a hydraulic structure, etc., and the driving component can realize the rotation or fixation of the rotating shaft through, but is not limited to, a gear rack, a worm gear, a ratchet pawl, a pin lock, etc.

[0056] Therefore, the multifunctional automobile cockpit can manually adjust the support plate position of the second seat mechanism 30 by the user, so that the second seat mechanism 30 is in a seat state or a partition state. The structure is simple and can further improve space utilization. Alternatively, the multifunctional automobile cockpit can also realize electric drive adjustment of the second seat mechanism 30 through a drive component, reducing user operations and further improving the convenience of state adjustment.

[0057] In one embodiment, the floor mechanism 10 includes a first floor assembly 12, a second floor assembly 13, and a connecting plate 14. The first seat mechanism 20 is disposed on the first floor assembly 12. The height of the second floor assembly 13 is greater than that of the first floor assembly 12. The first floor assembly 12 and the second floor assembly 13 are connected by the connecting plate 14. The second seat mechanism 30 is connected to a side of the connecting plate 14 close to the first floor assembly 12.

[0058] Among them, the multifunctional automobile cabin also includes a fourth support plate 50, the floor mechanism 10 is provided with a receiving groove 16, the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state, and the fourth support plate 50 is received in the receiving groove 16; the second seat mechanism 30 is in the partition state, at least part of the fourth support plate 50 is exposed in the receiving groove 16, and the side of the support plate away from the receiving groove 16 is in contact with the second seat mechanism 30.

[0059] Specifically, when the second seat mechanism 30 is adjusted to the partition position, it divides the interior space of the vehicle cabin into a front row space and a rear row space. The front row space is the cockpit where the first seat mechanism 20 is located, i.e., the space area encompassed by the first floor assembly 12. The rear row space is the space area encompassed by the connecting plate 14 and the second floor assembly 13. Because the second floor assembly 13 is taller than the first floor assembly 12, and the connecting plate 14 is inclined, the position of the connecting plate 14 is not conducive to storage. Therefore, the multifunctional vehicle cabin of this embodiment is provided with a fourth support plate 50 that is received in the receiving slot 16. This fourth support plate 50 can be pulled open and abutted against one side of the receiving slot 16 against the support plate of the second seat mechanism 30. The surface of the fourth support plate 50 is flush with the second floor assembly 13, allowing it to function as part of the floor, facilitating occupant movement and storage, further improving space utilization in the vehicle cabin and providing a more comfortable experience for different user needs.

[0060] Furthermore, the multifunctional vehicle cabin also includes an opening and closing member, one side of which is connected to the connecting plate 14. The opening and closing member can rotate relative to the connecting plate 14 to conceal or reveal the receiving slot 16. In a possible embodiment, when the opening and closing member is opened and the receiving slot 16 is revealed, the fourth support plate 50 can be completely removed from the receiving slot 16, with one side of the fourth support plate 50 overlapping the second floor assembly 13 and the other side connected to the second seat mechanism 30. Alternatively, a slide rail and a connecting member are provided in the receiving slot 16, and one side of the fourth support plate 50 is connected to the slide rail via the connecting member. When the opening and closing member is opened and exposed in the receiving slot 16, a portion of the fourth support plate 50 can extend out of the receiving slot 16 and abut against the second seat mechanism 30.

[0061] In one embodiment, the multifunctional automobile cabin also includes a third seat mechanism (not shown), which is arranged on the floor mechanism 10, and the third seat mechanism is located on the side of the second seat mechanism 30 away from the first seat mechanism 20. The second seat mechanism 30 is in a partition state, and the second seat mechanism 30 is used to isolate the cockpit so that the third seat mechanism is located in the partitioned riding space.

[0062] Specifically, the vehicle cabin also includes a third seat mechanism, which is located in the space to the side of the second seat mechanism 30, away from the first seat mechanism 20. Therefore, when the second seat mechanism 30 is in the partition state, it can function as a partition to isolate the cockpit. This allows the third seat mechanism to be located in the partitioned rear space, shielding the cockpit from view and obstructing the outside world. This allows the multifunctional vehicle cabin to be suitable for private riding scenarios, significantly enhancing the cabin's functionality and flexibility. The partitioned passenger space not only increases passenger privacy but also provides a more comfortable and independent riding experience.

[0063] The present application also provides an automobile. Specifically, the automobile of this embodiment includes a multifunctional automobile cockpit as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0064] Specifically, the vehicle may also include various functional modules, such as an entertainment system, an air purification device, and a temperature control device. For example, the entertainment system may integrate an interactive interface such as a touch screen or a voice control module. The interactive interface is provided in the second seat structure, specifically on the side of the support plate of the second seat mechanism 30 facing away from the first seat mechanism 20, so that the rear space can be suitable for entertainment scenarios.

[0065] Alternatively, a projection screen may be provided on the side of the support plate of the second seat mechanism 30 facing away from the first seat mechanism 20. Therefore, when the second seat mechanism 30 is adjusted to the partition state, the second seat mechanism 30 can also be used as a projection screen to provide users with a comfortable usage experience.

[0066] The present application also provides a method for operating a vehicle. Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a flow chart of an embodiment of the vehicle operation method provided by this application. Figure 9 As shown, the vehicle operating method includes the following steps:

[0067] Step S10 : The second support plate 32 of the second seat mechanism 30 is clamped to the floor mechanism 10 , so that the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state.

[0068] Specifically, when the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state, the second support plate 32 needs to be clamped to the fourth mounting slot 15 of the floor mechanism 10 via the second rotating shaft 35 so that the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat state.

[0069] Step S20 : ​​detaching the second support plate 32 from the floor mechanism 10 , and connecting the third support plate 33 of the second seat mechanism 30 to the top plate mechanism 40 , so that the second seat mechanism 30 is in the partition state.

[0070] When it is necessary to adjust the second seat mechanism 30 to the partition state, the second rotating shaft 35 of the second support plate 32 can be disengaged from the floor mechanism 10, and the second support plate 32 can be rotated relative to the first support plate 31 and the third support plate 33 respectively, so that the first support plate 31, the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33 are unfolded, and the side of the third support plate 33 away from the second support plate 32 is connected to the top plate mechanism 40, so that the two ends of the second seat mechanism 30 are respectively fixed to the floor mechanism 10 and the top plate mechanism 40, and the second seat mechanism 30 is adjusted to the partition state.

[0071] Among them, the height of the first support plate 31, the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33 is greater than or equal to the distance between the top plate mechanism 40 and the first floor assembly 12, so that the range after the first support plate 31, the second support plate 32 and the third support plate 33 are unfolded can achieve shielding from the floor to the top plate.

[0072] Step S30 : Pull out the fourth support plate 50 received by the floor mechanism 10 and abut against the second seat mechanism 30 , so that the fourth support plate 50 is flush with the floor of the second seat mechanism 30 on the side away from the cockpit.

[0073] After the second seat mechanism 30 is adjusted to the partition state, the fourth support plate 50 in the receiving groove 16 of the floor mechanism 10 is further pulled out, so that at least part of the fourth support plate 50 is exposed outside the receiving groove 16, and one end of the fourth support plate 50 abuts against the second seat mechanism 30 so that the fourth support plate 50 is flush with the second floor assembly 13. The fourth support plate 50 can be used as an extended ground of the second floor assembly 13, which is convenient for the movement and placement of passengers, etc., further improving the space utilization rate of the car cabin and allowing users to have a more comfortable experience under different needs.

[0074] Therefore, the vehicle operating method of the present embodiment can flexibly switch the second seat mechanism 30 between the seat and partition positions, meeting the diverse needs of the vehicle cabin in different scenarios. When the second seat mechanism 30 is in the seat position, passengers can sit comfortably on the second seat mechanism 30. When the second seat mechanism 30 is in the partition position, it effectively separates the rear row space, allowing it to function as an independent passenger space or cargo space, enhancing privacy and independence.

[0075] The above is only an implementation method of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the description and drawings of this application, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
