Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a motor vehicle having a foldable rear seat and a partition between the rear seat and the load area. Background Technology

[0002] Motor vehicles (such as automobiles, jeeps, and light commercial vehicles) include at least one body, at least one mobility system (engine, wheels, axles and other power transmission elements, steering system, etc.), and at least one interior compartment within the body. The interior compartment creates an enclosed space for carrying various loads along with the driver and passengers. The interior compartment typically includes at least one front seat, at least one rear seat located behind the front seat, and a load area for luggage, etc., located behind the rear seats. According to safety standards, the interior compartment also includes at least one partition between the rear seats and the load area. The partition is connected to the floor of the interior compartment from at least one side and to the ceiling of the interior compartment from at least the other side. Here, particularly during vehicle movement, the partition prevents loads located in the load area from contacting passengers in the rear seats and thus preventing injury to passengers and the driver. Therefore, vehicle safety is enhanced.

[0003] In such vehicles, the rear seats can be folded forward to increase the volume of the load area as needed. Therefore, a greater number and / or longer load structures can be located in the load area. In this application, because the rear seats are folded down and closer to the front seats, the partition between the rear seats and the load area must also be moved forward. However, since the partition is fastened to connection points located on the interior cabin ceiling and floor, there must be more than one connection point at different locations on the ceiling and floor to secure the partition closer to the front seats. This, in turn, increases the vehicle's manufacturing cost, and the process of separating the partition from the ceiling and floor when changes to the connection are needed is inconvenient for the user. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention discloses a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle includes at least one body; at least one interior compartment having at least one roof and at least one floor within the body; at least one mobility system located within the body; at least one front seat located within the interior compartment; at least one rear seat located within the interior compartment behind the front seat and having at least one open position and at least one folded position; at least one locking element located within the rear seat, which, when the rear seat is in the open position, is connected to at least one first connecting element located within the floor, such that the rear seat can be folded when separated from the first connecting element; at least one load area located within the interior compartment behind the rear seat; at least one partition located between the load area and the rear seat, adapted to be connected from at least one side to the roof and from at least the other side to the floor; and at least one second connecting element located within the partition and adapted to be connected to the locking element when the rear seat is in the folded position.

[0005] In the motor vehicle developed using this invention, the volume of the load area behind the rear seats can be increased by moving the rear seats to a folding position. In this way, if the rear seats are moved to the folding position, the partition separating the rear seats and the load area is disconnected from the floor, and the partition is connected to a locking element in the rear seats. Therefore, the position of the partition can be changed in a practical and reliable manner depending on the condition of the rear seats.

[0047] A motor vehicle for transporting people, pets, and goods includes at least one body, at least one mobility system, and at least one interior compartment in which people, pets, and goods reside. The interior compartment may include seats where passengers, the driver, and pets can sit, and at least one load area for storing goods. At least one partition is located between the load area and the seats, ensuring that goods in the load area do not injure passengers and the driver. Here, a portion of the seats can be folded down to increase the volume of the load area. In this case, it is also necessary to change the position of the partition. For this reason, a motor vehicle has been developed using the present invention that includes a partition having a position that can be adjusted in a practical and reliable manner when the seats are folded down.

[0048] Developed using this invention and in Figure 1-7The motor vehicle (A) shown includes at least one body (G); at least one interior compartment (1) in the body (G) having at least one roof (1a) and at least one floor (1b); at least one mobility system (not shown) located in the body (G); at least one front seat (2) located in the interior compartment (1); at least one rear seat (3) located behind the front seat (2) in the interior compartment (1) having at least one open (unfolded) position and at least one folded position; at least one locking element (3d) located in the rear seat (3), which, when the rear seat (3) is in the open position, is connected to a locking element located in the floor (1b). The rear seat (3) is provided with at least one first connecting element (1c), preferably in the form of a rod, such that the rear seat (3) can be folded when separated from the first connecting element (1c); at least one load area (4) located behind the rear seat (3) in the interior compartment (1); at least one partition (5) located between the load area (4) and the rear seat (3), adapted to be connected from at least one side to the roof (1a) and from at least the other side to the floor (1b); and at least one second connecting element (5d), preferably having a rod structure located in the partition (5), adapted to be connected to the locking element (3d) when the rear seat (3) is in the folded position.

[0049] The motor vehicle (A) described in the exemplary embodiments of the present invention is in the form of a light commercial vehicle. Here, the corresponding driver and passengers can be transported by the motor vehicle (A), and different loads for commercial purposes can be transported in the load area (4). Here, in normal use of the motor vehicle (A), the rear seat (3) is in the open position, wherein the locking element (3d) located in the rear seat (3) is connected (locked) to the first connecting element (1c) located in the roof (1b). In this position, in particular due to the force generated on the rear seat (3) during the movement of the motor vehicle (A), the rear seat (3) is prevented from being in a folded position due to its own movement. Also in this position, the partition (5) is located between the rear seat (3) and the load area (4) so ​​as to be connected from its lower part to the floor (1b) and from its upper part to the roof (1a). Thus, the load in the load area (4) is prevented from moving forward, thereby contacting and injuring the seats, passengers and driver. Depending on the amount and size of the load to be borne in the load area (4), the volume of the load area (3) can be increased by folding the rear seat (3). For this folding process, firstly, the locking element (3d) located in the rear seat (3) is separated from the first connecting element (1c). Then, the rear seat (3) is folded so that at least a portion of it is close to the front seat (2). Thus, the volume occupied by the rear seat (3) is added to the volume of the load area (4). If the rear seat (3) is folded in this manner, the partition (5) is also moved forward. For this purpose, the lower part of the partition (5) is separated from the floor (1b), and the second connecting element (5d) located in the partition (4) is connected to the locking element (3d). Here, since the locking element (3d) already provided in the rear seat (3) is for changing the position of the partition (5), no external connecting structure is required. Therefore, in the manufacturing process of the motor vehicle (A), since no different connecting structure is required, the manufacturing process is ensured to be carried out in a low-cost and simple manner. Here, since the locking element (3d) is in the form of a component that provides a reliable connection, the connection is ensured to be reliable even when the position of the partition (5) is changed.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the motor vehicle (A) includes at least one roof connecting element (6) that enables the partition (5) to be connected to the roof (1a). In this embodiment, the roof connecting element (6) includes at least one fixing mechanism that enables the roof connecting element (6) to be secured to the roof (1a). The fixing mechanism may include fasteners such as nuts / bolts. Here, the partition (5) is rotatably connected to the roof connecting element (6), for example, via an intermediate element such as a hinge. Therefore, when the position of the lower part of the partition (5) is changed, the upper part can also be rotated relative to the roof.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the motor vehicle (A) includes at least one floor connecting element (7) and at least one connecting groove (1d), the at least one floor connecting element (7) enabling the partition (5) to be connected to the floor (1b), the at least one connecting groove (1d) being located at the floor (1b) and adapted to connect the floor connecting element (7). In this embodiment, the floor connecting element (7) is preferably in the form of a spring pin. By compressing or pulling and tensioning the spring, the pin is ensured to move into or out of the connecting groove (1d). Therefore, when it is necessary to change the position of the partition (5), it is ensured that the user can detach the floor connecting element (7) from the floor (1b) in a practical and reliable manner.

[0052] In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the rear seat (3) includes at least one seating portion (3a), at least one backrest portion (3b), and at least one connecting portion (3c), wherein the locking element (3d) is located in the connecting portion, which connects the seating portion (3a) and the backrest portion (3b). The backrest portion (3b) described herein is preferably rotatably connected to the connecting portion (3c). Therefore, as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, when the rear seat (3) is brought to the folded position, it is also ensured that the backrest portion (3b) is rotated and placed on the seating portion (3a). The rear seat (3) also includes at least one movable connecting element (3g) located on the front side of the seating portion (3a) (near the front seat (2)) to allow the seating portion (3b) to be rotatably connected to the floor (1b). Thanks to the movable connecting element (3g) (which is preferably in the form of a hinge), the rear seat (3) can be reliably folded by allowing the seating portion (3a) to rotate relative to the floor (1b).

[0053] In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the partition (5) includes at least one first panel portion (5a), at least one second panel portion (5b), and at least one connecting portion (5c), which preferably has a hinge structure, allowing the first panel portion (5a) to be rotatably connected to the second panel portion (5b). In this embodiment, when necessary, the second panel portion (5b) can be closed onto the first panel portion (5a) due to rotational movement via the connecting portion (5c). In an exemplary embodiment, when the rear seat (3) is brought to the folded position, the second panel portion (5b) is also folded onto the first panel portion (5a). In this case, for example, as Figure 5As shown, the first panel portion (5a) is connected to the locking element (3d) via a second connecting element (5d). In this embodiment, the second connecting element (5d) may be in the form of a rod to be connected to the partition (5), its sole function being to provide the connection, or at least a portion of the connecting portion (5c) may be used as the second connecting element (5d). In an alternative embodiment, a first side rod (5e) located in the first panel portion (5a) (e.g., the frame of the first panel portion (5a)) or a second side rod (5f) located in the second panel portion (5b) (e.g., the frame of the second panel portion (5b)) may also be used as the second connecting element (5d) and connected to the locking element (3d).

[0054] In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the locking element (3d) includes at least one locking groove (3e), at least one bolt (3f) located in the locking groove (3e), and at least one triggering element (not shown) for controlling the movement of the bolt (3f). Here, after the first connecting element (1c) or the second connecting element (5d) is placed in the locking groove (3e), the bolt (3f) prevents them from shifting out of the locking groove (3e). In order for the first connecting element (1c) or the second connecting element (5d) to disengage from the bolt (3f) and leave the locking groove (3e), the bolt (3f) must be moved by the triggering element. Thus, the locking element (3d) is ensured to be in a reliable structure.

[0055] In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the partition (5) includes at least one curved portion (5g). Preferably, the curved portion (5g) located in the first panel portion (5a) may be in the form of a hinge or a flexible component (such as fabric). In the motor vehicle (A) developed using the invention, when the rear seat (3) is brought to the folded position, the partition (5) remains connected to the roof (1a) from its upper part. However, maintaining this connection results in insufficient increase in the volume of the upper part of the load area (4). To solve this problem, the partition (5) is bent from the curved portion (5g), as... Figure 7 As shown, it is connected from its lower part (e.g., from the end of the second panel portion (5b) away from the first panel portion (5a)) to the locking element (3d). Thus, the upper part of the folded rear seat (3) is also included in the load area (4), and the volume of the load area (4) is effectively increased.

[0056] In the motor vehicle (A) developed using the present invention, the volume of the load area (4) behind the rear seat (4) can be increased by moving the rear seat (3) to the folding position. In this way, if the rear seat (3) is moved to the folding position, the partition (5) separating the rear seat (2) and the load area (4) will be disconnected from the floor (1b), and the partition (3) is connected to a locking element (3d) located in the rear seat (4). Thus, the position of the partition (5) can be changed in a practical and reliable manner according to the condition of the rear seat (3).
