[0044] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0045] The following is a reference appendix. Figures 1-13 A sleeper assembly 100 for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a sleeper assembly 100 for a vehicle includes: a fixing frame 90, a first sleeper board 10, a lead screw 30, and a first motor (not shown in the figure).

[0047] Specifically, the first berth board 10 is positioned along the vertical direction (e.g., Figure 1The first berth 10 is movably mounted on the fixed frame 90 (shown in the vertical direction); the lead screw 30 extends vertically and connects between the first motor and the first berth 10, and the first motor drives the first berth 10 to move vertically through the lead screw 30.

[0048] When the position of the first berth 10 needs to be adjusted, the first motor drives the lead screw 30 to rotate, and the rotation of the lead screw 30 causes the first berth 10 to move in the vertical direction, thus realizing the vertical movement of the first berth 10.

[0049] The sleeper assembly 100 for vehicles of the present invention is provided with a lead screw 30 and a first motor, which can drive the first sleeper board 10 to move in the vertical direction. This allows the first sleeper board 10 to be adjusted to a reasonable position according to actual needs, making it convenient for drivers and passengers to lie down. At the same time, the first sleeper board 10 can be moved to a position that does not affect the drivers and passengers. Compared with the prior art, where the first sleeper board 10 cannot be moved and thus affects the drivers and passengers, this embodiment can move the first sleeper board 10 to a suitable position, avoiding the first sleeper board 10 affecting the head space of the drivers and passengers, thereby reducing the impact of the first sleeper board 10 on the drivers and passengers and improving the riding experience of the drivers and passengers.

[0050] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a sleeper assembly 100 for a vehicle is provided with a lead screw 30 and a first motor. The first sleeper board 10 can be adjusted to a reasonable position according to actual needs, so as to facilitate the driver and passengers to lie down. At the same time, the impact of the first sleeper board 10 on the driver and passengers can be reduced, thereby improving the riding experience of the driver and passengers.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The sleeper assembly 100 also includes: a movable seat 20 and a first locking member 40. A lead screw 30 is rotatably connected to the movable seat 20 to drive the movable seat 20 to move up and down. A first sleeper board 10 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 20. The movable seat 20 is provided with a first locking hole 21. When the movable seat 20 is in any position in the up and down direction, the first locking member 40 is adapted to lock and cooperate with the first locking hole 21 to restrict the up and down movement of the movable seat 20.

[0052] In this way, the first berth 10 is connected to the lead screw 30 through the movable seat 20. The lead screw 30 drives the movable seat 20 to move, which enables the first berth 10 to move normally in the vertical direction. The first locking member 40 and the first locking hole 21 cooperate to fix the first berth 10, thereby preventing the first berth 10 from shaking relative to the lead screw 30, and thus meeting the sitting and lying needs of the driver and passengers.

[0053] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixed frame 90 is fixed to the bulkhead of the cockpit 200, and the movable seat 20 is locked to the fixed frame 90 by the first locking member 40. This prevents the fixed frame 90 from shaking, and at the same time, the fixed frame 90 provides a locking position for locking the movable seat 20, thereby enabling the first berth 10 to be locked.

[0054] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixed frame 90 is vertically arranged, the first locking member 40 is formed as a pin, the movable seat 20 is connected to the first berth board 10, the movable seat 20 is provided with a first locking hole 21, and the first locking member 40 can move within the first locking hole 21.

[0055] When the position of the first berth 10 needs to be adjusted, the first locking member 40 is pulled out from the first locking hole 21, and the screw 30 moves the first berth 10 up and down to the appropriate position through the movable seat 20. When the first berth 10 is moved to the appropriate position, the first locking member 40 extends into the first locking hole 21 to fix the movable seat 20 and the fixed frame 90, thereby fixing the first berth 10 and the fixed frame 90, so that the driver and passengers can lie down conveniently.

[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, a connector 55 is provided on the rear side of the first locking hole 21. The connector 55 is fixed to the bulkhead of the cockpit 200. When the first locking member 40 extends into the first locking hole 21 and contacts the connector 55, the connector 55 provides feedback to remind the driver and passengers that the first locking member 40 has been locked and engaged with the first locking hole 21. This can avoid danger caused by not being able to determine whether the first locking member 40 is locked in place, thereby improving the safety of the first sleeper berth 10.

[0057] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The first sleeper berth 10 includes a first berth 11 and a second berth 12. Both the first berth 11 and the second berth 12 are movable in the vertical direction. The first berth 11 and the second berth 12 are arranged in the horizontal direction of the vehicle 1000 and are detachably connected.

[0058] In this way, moving the first plate 11 can move it to a position that does not affect the driver and passengers driving the vehicle 1000, effectively freeing up head space for the driver and passengers. Moving the second plate 12 can move it to a position that does not affect the driver and passengers driving the vehicle 1000, effectively freeing up head space for the driver and passengers. When the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are connected in the left and right direction, the lying-down needs of the driver and passengers can be met.

[0059] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. The first plate 11 can be moved in the up and down direction, and the second plate 12 can be moved in the up and down direction. The first plate 11 and the second plate 12 can be connected horizontally in the left and right direction to facilitate the lying down of the driver and passengers.

[0060] According to some optional embodiments of the present invention, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 The sleeper assembly 100 may further include: a first shaft 51 and a second motor, the first shaft 51 extending along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle 1000 and connected to one end of the first plate 11 that is opposite to the second plate 12 in the lateral direction (e.g., Figure 5 (The left end of the first plate 11 shown) The second motor is connected to the first shaft 51 and is used to drive the first plate 11 to rotate through the first shaft 51.

[0061] In this way, the second motor drives the first shaft 51 to rotate, and the first shaft 51 drives the first plate 11 to rotate, thereby further moving the first plate 11 to a position that does not affect the driver and passengers driving the vehicle 1000, which can maximize the head space of the driver and passengers and thus ensure the driving experience.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the sleeper assembly 100 may further include: a second shaft and a third motor, the second shaft extending along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle 1000 and connected to one end of the second plate 12 opposite to the first plate 11 in the lateral direction (e.g., Figure 5 (The right end of the second plate 12 shown) The third motor is connected to the second shaft and is used to drive the second plate 12 to rotate through the second shaft.

[0063] In this way, the third motor drives the second shaft to rotate, and the second shaft drives the second plate 12 to rotate, thereby moving the second plate 12 to a position that does not affect the driver and passengers driving the vehicle 1000, thus maximizing the head space for the driver and passengers and ensuring the driving experience.

[0064] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second motor drives the first shaft 51 to rotate, the first shaft 51 drives the first plate 11 to rotate, and the upper end of the first plate 11 rotates counterclockwise around the lower end toward the left side of the cockpit 200. The third motor drives the second shaft to rotate, the second shaft drives the second plate 12 to rotate, and the upper end of the second plate 12 rotates counterclockwise around the lower end toward the right side of the cockpit 200.

[0065] According to some optional embodiments of the present invention, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first shaft 51 and the second shaft are each provided with a plurality of locking grooves 521 arranged at intervals along the circumference. That is, the first shaft 51 may be provided with two, three, four or more locking grooves 521 arranged at intervals along the circumference, and the second shaft may be provided with two, three or four or more locking grooves 521 arranged at intervals along the circumference. The sleeper assembly 100 also includes a second locking member 61, which is adapted to lock into any one of the locking grooves 521 to restrict the rotation of the first shaft 51 or the second shaft.

[0066] In this way, the second locking member 61 extends into the locking groove 521 to restrict the rotation of the first shaft 51 or the second shaft, thereby restricting the rotational position of the first plate 11 or the second plate 12. The position of the first plate 11 or the second plate 12 can be adjusted according to actual needs, which can effectively improve the user experience of the first berth board 10.

[0067] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the movable seat 20 is provided with a second locking member 61, and a rotating member 52 is provided on the first shaft 51 or the second shaft. The rotating member 52 is provided with a plurality of locking grooves 521, which are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the rotating member 52. At least a portion of the second locking member 61 extends into any one of the locking grooves 521. That is, either a portion of the second locking member 61 extends into any one of the locking grooves 521, or the entire second locking member 61 extends into any one of the locking grooves 521, so that the rotating member 52 is relatively fixed to the movable seat 20.

[0068] In this way, the second locking member 61 can cooperate with the locking groove 521 to lock the rotating member 52, thereby locking the first plate 11 or the second plate 12, which can effectively prevent the first plate 11 or the second plate 12 from rotating. At the same time, the second locking member 61 can cooperate with any locking groove 521, and can lock the first plate 11 or the second plate 12 at any position within its stroke, thereby increasing the ease of use of the first plate 11 or the second plate 12.

[0069] For example, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the rotating member 52 is annular. A rotating member 52 is provided on the first shaft 51 and a rotating member 52 is provided on the second shaft. Multiple locking grooves 521 are provided on the radial outer side of the rotating member 52 in the circumferential direction. The multiple locking grooves 521 are arranged sequentially along the circumferential direction of the rotating member 52. The second locking member 61 is formed as a pin. The second locking member 61 cooperates with the locking grooves 521 to lock the first plate 11 or the second plate 12.

[0070] When the first plate 11 or the second plate 12 rotates, the second locking member 61 is fixed on the movable seat 20, and the rotating member 52 rotates normally. When the first plate 11 or the second plate 12 needs to be stopped, part of the second locking member 61 extends into the locking groove 521, and the rotating member 52 stops rotating. The rotating member 52 causes the first shaft 51 or the second shaft to stop rotating, thereby locking the first plate 11 or the second plate 12.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the sleeper assembly 100 also includes a connecting bracket 53, which connects the first sleeper board 10 to the first shaft 51 or the second shaft. Thus, by connecting the connecting bracket 53 to the first sleeper board 10, the connection between the first shaft 51 or the second shaft and the first sleeper board 10 can be facilitated.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a spline 54 is provided between the first shaft 51 or the second shaft and the rotating member 52. The spline 54 can prevent relative rotation between the first shaft 51 or the second shaft and the rotating member 52, thereby ensuring the normal rotation and locking of the first plate 11 or the second plate 12.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 9 The sleeper assembly 100 also includes a third shaft and a fourth motor. The third shaft extends along the left-right direction of the vehicle 1000 and is connected to the first sleeper berth 10. The fourth motor drives the first sleeper berth 10 to rotate via the third shaft. Thus, the fourth motor can drive the first sleeper berth 10 to rotate as a whole, thereby rotating the first sleeper berth 10 to a suitable position and reducing the impact of the first sleeper berth 10 on the driver and passengers.

[0074] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the third shaft extends in the left and right direction, and the fourth motor drives the third shaft to rotate. The third shaft drives the first sleeper berth 10 to rotate toward the rear side wall of the cockpit 200.

[0075] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 The sleeper assembly 100 also includes at least one storage compartment 70, meaning that the sleeper assembly 100 may include one, two, three, or more storage compartments 70. The storage compartments 70 are connected to the first sleeper board 10 and located below the first sleeper board 10 (e.g., Figure 10 (As shown below the first berth 10), the storage box 70 has a storage cavity 73. Thus, the storage box 70 can increase storage space, thereby meeting the storage needs of the driver and passengers. The storage box 70 is located below the first berth 10, so it will not affect the driver and passengers' lying down.

[0076] For example, such as Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the sleeper assembly 100 may include one storage box 70, or the sleeper assembly 100 may include two storage boxes 70.

[0077] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 As shown, the storage compartment 70 includes a compartment body and a door (not shown). The compartment body defines a storage cavity 73 with an opening, and the compartment body is positioned at the opening for opening and closing. Thus, the storage cavity 73 defined by the compartment body can store items, thereby meeting the storage needs of drivers and passengers. Opening the door opens the opening, allowing drivers and passengers to easily retrieve items from the storage cavity 73. Furthermore, the door can close the compartment opening, thereby preventing items from falling out of the storage cavity 73.

[0078] According to some alternative embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 10 As shown, the sleeper assembly 100 also includes a first slide rail 81, which extends along the length of the first sleeper berth 10, and a storage compartment 70 is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 81. Thus, the storage compartment 70 can slide along the first slide rail 81, allowing it to be moved to a suitable position and preventing it from obstructing the driver or passengers.

[0079] For example, such as Figure 10 As shown, the first slide rail 81 is located on the lower side of the first berth board 10. The first slide rail 81 extends in the left-right direction, and two first slide rails 81 are provided, which are arranged at intervals in the front-back direction. When two storage boxes 70 are provided and the total length of the storage boxes 70 in the left-right direction is less than the total length of the first berth board 10, the storage boxes 70 can move left and right along the first slide rail 81.

[0080] Furthermore, such as Figure 10As shown, the sleeper assembly 100 also includes a second slide rail 82. The first sleeper board 10 is provided with the second slide rail 82, which is circular. The storage box 70 can slide along the second slide rail 82 and rotate around the center of the second slide rail 82. Thus, the storage box 70 can rotate along the second slide rail 82, thereby adjusting the opening direction of the box door and making it easier to retrieve items from the storage box 70.

[0081] For example, such as Figure 10 As shown, the second slide rail 82 is located on the upper side of the storage box 70. The second slide rail 82 is circular and is connected to the first slide rail 81, so that the storage box 70 can rotate along the second slide rail 82.

[0082] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 10 The sleeper assembly 100 also includes a modular storage unit, which is located within the storage cavity 73 and is detachably connected to the storage box 70. This allows for the storage of special items, such as toothbrushes and toothpaste, within the modular storage unit, effectively separating these items from other items in the storage cavity 73 and protecting them. Furthermore, the detachable connection between the modular storage unit and the storage box 70 allows passengers to easily assemble and disassemble the modular storage unit as needed, further meeting their requirements and facilitating its maintenance and replacement.

[0083] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 10 The storage box 70 includes a main body 71 and an outer shell 72. The main body 71 defines a storage cavity 73, and the outer shell 72 covers the side of the main body 71 opposite to the storage cavity 73. Thus, the outer shell 72 is located outside the main body 71, and its structure can be adjusted as needed to further meet the usage needs of drivers and passengers. The main body 71 and the outer shell 72 are compatible, which reduces the mold cost of the main body 71 and facilitates mass production.

[0084] For example, such as Figure 10 As shown, the two ends of the main body 71 are connected to the mounting side, and the outer shell 72 is located on the side of the main body 71 away from the storage cavity 73, with both ends of the outer shell 72 connected to the mounting side. Preferably, the outer shell 72 is snap-fitted to the main body 71, a snap-fit ​​connection that is simple in structure and easy to assemble.

[0085] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 The sleeper assembly 100 also includes a second sleeper board 83 for lying down, the second sleeper board 83 extending in the left-right direction of the vehicle 1000 and located below the first sleeper board 10 (e.g., Figure 5 (The lower side of the first berth board 10 shown).

[0086] In this way, the second berth 83 can provide a resting place for drivers and passengers, making it convenient for them to rest. Furthermore, the second berth 83, together with the first berth 10, can provide two resting positions, thus meeting the resting needs of multiple drivers and passengers. In addition, the first berth 10 and the second berth 83 are arranged alternately, ensuring that drivers and passengers lying on the first berth 10 and the second berth 83 do not disturb each other, thus providing a certain degree of privacy and ensuring the quality of rest for drivers and passengers.

[0087] According to a second aspect embodiment of the vehicle 1000, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 5 This includes the sleeper assembly 100 for a vehicle, which is part of the first aspect of this embodiment.

[0088] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle 1000, by providing the sleeper assembly 100 for the vehicle of the first aspect embodiment described above, and by providing the lead screw 30 and the first motor, can adjust the first sleeper board 10 to a reasonable position according to actual needs, so as to facilitate the driver and passengers to lie down. At the same time, it can reduce the impact of the first sleeper board 10 on the driver and passengers and improve the riding experience of the driver and passengers.

[0089] According to some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 Vehicle 1000 is a truck, and the sleeper assembly 100 is located inside the truck's cab 200. As a result, since truck drivers and passengers spend a lot of time in vehicle 1000, the sleeper assembly 100 can meet their needs for rest and storage, thereby improving the user experience of vehicle 1000.

[0090] The following is for reference. Figures 1-13 A vehicle 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0091] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a vehicle 1000 includes a driver's cab 200 and a sleeper assembly 100, wherein the sleeper assembly 100 is disposed within the driver's cab 200.

[0092] The sleeper assembly 100 includes: a first sleeper board 10, a movable seat 20, a lead screw 30, a first locking component 40, a first shaft 51, a second shaft, a third shaft, a first motor, a second motor, a third motor, a fourth motor, a rotating component 52, a connecting bracket 53, a connector 55, a second locking component 61, a third locking component 62, a storage box 70, a first slide rail 81, a second slide rail 82, a second sleeper board 83, and a fixing frame 90.

[0093] Specifically, the second berth 83 is located below the first berth 10. The movable seat 20 is fixed to the first berth 10.

A third motor is connected to the second shaft, and the third motor drives the left end of the second berth 12 to rotate around the right end of the first berth 11 toward the right side wall of the driver's cabin 200.

[0096] The first plate 11 is provided with a third locking member 62, and the second plate 12 is provided with a second locking hole. The third locking member 62 extends into the second locking hole to lock the first plate 11 and the second plate 12.

[0097] A connecting bracket 53 is connected to the first shaft 51 and the second shaft. A spline 54 is provided between the connecting bracket 53 and the first shaft 51, and between the connecting bracket 53 and the second shaft. One end of the connecting bracket 53 abuts against the lower side of the first berth 10. The second motor drives the first berth 11 to rotate through the first shaft 51 and the connecting bracket 53. The third motor drives the second berth 12 to rotate through the second shaft and the connecting bracket 53.

[0098] The third shaft extends in the left-right direction and is connected to the rear end of the first berth 10. The fourth motor drives the first berth 10 to rotate toward the rear side wall of the cockpit 200 through the third shaft. Two fourth motors can be arranged. One fourth motor drives the first plate 11 to rotate through the third shaft, and the other fourth motor drives the second plate 12 to rotate through the third shaft.

[0099] The sleeper assembly 100 may include one, two, or three storage compartments 70, which are arranged sequentially along the length of the first sleeper board 10. The mounting side of the first sleeper board 10 is provided with a first slide rail 81, and two first slide rails 81 extend along the left and right directions of the first sleeper board 10 and are arranged at intervals along the front and back directions. The multiple storage compartments 70 can slide left and right along the first slide rails 81.

[0100] The upper side of the storage box 70 is provided with a second circular slide rail 82, which is connected to the first slide rail 81. The storage box 70 can slide along the second slide rail 82 to rotate around the center of the second slide rail 82.

[0101] The storage box 70 includes a main body 71 and an outer shell 72. The main body 71 defines a storage cavity 73, and the outer shell 72 covers the side of the main body 71 opposite to the storage cavity 73. The storage box 70 has an opening that extends through the storage box 70 along its thickness direction and connects to the storage cavity 73. The opening has a door that can be opened and closed. A modular storage component is installed inside the storage cavity 73 and is detachably connected to the storage box 70.

[0102] When passengers need to rest, the third locking member 62 locks the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, which are horizontally connected in the left-right direction. At this time, the first motor drives the lead screw 30 to rotate, which in turn moves the movable seat 20. The movable seat 20 then moves the first berth 10 in the up-down direction. When the first berth 10 moves to a suitable position, the first locking member 40 extends into the first locking hole 21 to fix the movable seat 20 to the fixed frame 90. At the same time, the connector 55 reminds passengers that the first locking member 40 has locked the first berth 10, thus satisfying the passengers' need to lie down. When passengers do not need to lie down, the first motor drives the first berth 10 to move upward to a suitable position through the lead screw 30 and the movable seat 20. The first locking member 40 then extends into the first locking hole 21 to lock the first berth 10, thus ensuring that the first berth 10 does not affect the passengers' headroom.

[0103] When the driver and passengers do not need to rest, the first plate 11 can be moved up and down until it reaches a suitable position. At this time, the first locking member 40 locks the first plate 11. At the same time, the second plate 12 can be moved up and down until the first plate 11 reaches a suitable position. At this time, the first locking member 40 locks the second plate 12, so that neither the first plate 11 nor the second plate 12 will affect the driver and passengers.

[0104] The occupants can also use a second motor to drive the first shaft 51 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting bracket 53 to rotate. The connecting bracket 53 then drives the first plate 11 to rotate toward the left side wall of the cockpit 200. When the first plate 11 rotates to the appropriate position, the second locking member 61 extends into any locking groove 521 to lock the first plate 11, thus ensuring that the first plate 11 does not affect the headroom of the occupants. At the same time, the third motor is controlled to drive the second shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting bracket 53 to rotate. The connecting bracket 53 then drives the second plate 12 to rotate toward the right side wall of the cockpit 200. When the second plate 12 rotates to the appropriate position, the second locking member 61 extends into any locking groove 521 to lock the second plate 12, thus ensuring that the second plate 12 does not affect the headroom of the occupants.

[0105] The occupants can also control the rotation of the third shaft via the fourth motor. The third shaft drives the first sleeper berth 10 to rotate towards the rear wall of the driver's cabin 200, thus ensuring that the first sleeper berth 10 does not obstruct the headroom of the occupants. There can be two fourth motors: one motor controls the rotation of the first berth 11 towards the rear wall of the driver's cabin 200, and the other motor controls the rotation of the second berth 12 towards the rear wall of the driver's cabin 200. This allows the position of the first berth 11, the second berth 12, or the first sleeper berth 10 to be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0106] When the position of the storage box 70 needs to be adjusted, the storage box 70 is moved to a suitable position along the first slide rail 81 to meet the user experience of the storage box 70. At the same time, when the opening of the storage box 70 is inconvenient to access, the opening of the storage box 70 is rotated along the second slide rail 82 to facilitate the retrieval of items from the storage box 70.

[0107] The vehicle 1000 of the present invention, by setting up the sleeper assembly 100 for the vehicle in the first aspect embodiment described above, and setting up the lead screw 30 and the first motor, can adjust the first sleeper board 10 to a reasonable position according to actual needs, so as to facilitate the driver and passengers to lie down. At the same time, it can reduce the impact of the first sleeper board 10 on the driver and passengers and improve the riding experience of the driver and passengers.
