[0010] Furthermore, the multifunctional wall structure also includes a tabletop, with a receiving groove provided at the bottom of the berth floor. One end of the tabletop is rotatably connected to at least one of the groove wall or the bottom of the receiving groove, so that the tabletop has a fifth storage position stored in the receiving groove, and the tabletop has a third unfolded position partially located outside the receiving groove, wherein when the tabletop is in the third unfolded position, the height of the tabletop is greater than the height of the seat cushion.

[0011] Furthermore, the tabletop includes: a board body, one end of which is rotatably connected to at least one of the groove wall and the groove bottom of the receiving groove; a third support rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the board body, the third support rod having a sixth storage position that fits against the side of the board body near the receiving groove, and the third support rod having a third support position that forms an angle with the plane of the board body.

[0012] Furthermore, the tabletop also includes a second connecting mechanism, which is connected to the plate body. The second connecting mechanism protrudes from the side of the plate body away from the receiving groove. The groove wall of the receiving groove is provided with a second mating mechanism that cooperates with the second connecting mechanism. When the tabletop is in the fifth storage position, the second connecting mechanism is connected to the second mating mechanism.

[0013] Furthermore, the multifunctional wall structure also includes a soft cushion, which is connected to the wall body and is located on one side of the wall body. The soft cushion is adjacent to the seat and is located on the outside of the seat.

[0014] Furthermore, the multifunctional wall structure also includes storage cabinets, which are connected to the wall body and installed in locations other than the seating and berth installation positions. The storage cabinets have storage space for storing target items.

[0015] Furthermore, the multifunctional wall structure also includes a shelf, which is connected to the wall body and extends along the thickness of the wall body. The shelf is used to place the target item.

[0016] Furthermore, the wall body is also equipped with a power supply interface, and at least one power supply interface is higher than the height of the shelf.

[0017] According to another aspect of the present invention, a vehicle is provided having a multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle, wherein the multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle is the aforementioned multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle.

[0018] Furthermore, the vehicle includes a cab, wherein the cab is provided with a driver's seat and a passenger seat, which are spaced apart along the length of the vehicle.

[0019] By applying the technical solution of this invention, berths and seats are installed at multiple mounting positions on the wall body, and the berths are rotatably connected to the wall body. This allows the berth to be stowed in a position flush with the wall body, or rotated to a first unfolded position, using its working surface for other activities, depending on the needs of the user. Similarly, the seats are rotatably mounted relative to the wall body, allowing them to be stowed on the wall body, or rotated to a second unfolded position, using their working surface for other activities. Furthermore, because the mounting positions of the seats and berths are adjacent along the width of the wall body, the user can simultaneously switch both the berth and seat to their respective unfolded positions. This allows the working surfaces of the berth and seat to be combined to form a larger working surface for the user, meeting the user's need for a large resting space and enabling various resting postures such as sitting and lying down, thus improving the user's experience.

It should be understood that these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application is thorough and complete, and that the concept of these exemplary embodiments is fully conveyed to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, for clarity, the thickness of layers and regions may be exaggerated, and the same reference numerals are used to denote the same devices, and therefore their description will be omitted.

[0047] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to a specific embodiment of this application, a multifunctional wall structure for vehicles is provided.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the multi-functional wall structure for a vehicle includes a wall body 10, a berth 20, and a seat 30. The wall body 10 has multiple mounting positions, some of which are arranged along the height direction of the wall body 10, and others are arranged along the width direction of the wall body 10. The berth 20 is rotatably connected to the wall body 10, and is located at one mounting position. The berth 20 has a first storage position that conforms to the wall body 10, and a first unfolded position that separates it from the wall body 10. A portion of the seat 30 is connected to the wall body 10, and is located at another mounting position. The seat 30 is connected to the wall body 10. The body 10 is rotatably arranged, and at least a portion of the seats 30 have a second storage position that moves toward the side of the wall body 10 for storage, and at least a portion of the seats 30 have a second unfolded position that moves away from the side of the wall body 10; wherein, the installation position of the berth 20 and the installation position of the seats 30 are arranged adjacent to each other along the width direction of the wall body 10. When the berth 20 is in the first unfolded position and the seats 30 are in the second unfolded position, the working surface of the berth 20 and the working surface of the seats 30 are spliced ​​together to form a large working surface. The working surface of the berth 20, the working surface of the seats 30 and the large working surface are used to carry the target object.

[0049] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, by installing a berth 20 and a seat 30 at multiple mounting positions on the wall body 10, and rotatably connecting the berth 20 to the wall body 10, the berth 20 can be stowed in a position that fits against the wall body 10 according to the needs of the target object, or the berth 20 can be rotated to a first unfolded position to use the working surface of the berth 20 for other activities; while the seat 30 is rotatably arranged relative to the wall body 10, so that the seat 30 can be stowed on the wall body 10 according to the needs of the target object, or the seat 30 can be rotated to a second unfolded position to use the working surface of the seat 30 for other activities. Meanwhile, since the installation positions of the seat 30 and the berth 20 are arranged adjacent to each other along the width direction of the wall body 10, the berth 20 and the seat 30 are arranged adjacent to each other along the width direction of the wall body 10. This allows the target user to switch both the berth 20 and the seat 30 to their respective unfolded positions at the same time. This allows the working surfaces of the berth 20 and the seat 30 to be spliced ​​together to form a larger working surface for the target user to use. This can meet the target user's need for a large rest space and also allow the target user to switch between various resting postures such as sitting and lying down, thus improving the target user's experience.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6As shown, the berth 20 includes a berth base plate 21 and a first support rod 23. The first end of the berth base plate 21 is rotatably connected to the wall body 10. The berth base plate 21 has a first accommodating space, at least a portion of which extends along the width direction of the berth base plate 21. At least one first support rod 23 is movably disposed within the first accommodating space along the width direction of the berth base plate 21. The first support rod 23 has a third storage position within the first accommodating space and a first support position extending out of the first accommodating space. When the berth 20 is in the first unfolded position, the first support rod 23 can be selectively located in the first support position and the third storage position. The berth base 21 is rotatably connected to the wall body 10 at its first end, allowing the berth 20 to rotate and change from a first storage position to a first unfolded position. The berth base 21 has a first accommodating space inside for storing a first support rod 23. The first support rod 23 has a third storage position inside the first accommodating space and a first support position outside the first accommodating space. That is, when the berth 20 is in the first unfolded position, the first support rod 23 can extend from the first accommodating space to the first support position to support the berth base 21, thus ensuring the safety and comfort of the user when using the berth 20. Furthermore, the user can adjust the position of the first support rod 23 according to actual needs, making it convenient to use, organize, and store.

[0051] In one embodiment of this application, a first slide rail is provided in the first accommodating space. The track of the first slide rail extends along the width direction of the berth floor 21. The first support rod 23 can slide along the extension direction of the first slide rail. That is, when the first support rod 23 slides along the first slide rail into the first accommodating space, the first support rod 23 is located in the third storage position. When the first support rod 23 slides along the first slide rail to the outside of the first accommodating space, the first support rod 23 is located in the first support position. At this time, the first support rod 23 is rotatably connected to the first slide rail, so that the first support rod 23 can be flipped to a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface (i.e., the height direction of the wall body 10), which facilitates providing support force to the berth floor 21.

[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the berth 20 also includes a first connecting mechanism 22. One end of the first connecting mechanism 22 is connected to the berth base plate 21. The first connecting mechanism 22 is located at the end away from the berth base plate 21. The wall body 10 is provided with a first cooperating mechanism that cooperates with the first connecting mechanism 22. When the berth 20 is in the first storage position, the first connecting mechanism 22 is connected to the first cooperating mechanism. One end of the first connecting mechanism 22 is fixedly connected to the berth base plate 21, and its position is located at the end away from the connection with the wall body 10. When the berth base plate 21 is folded and located in the first storage position, the first connecting mechanism 22 will be in a position opposite to the wall body 10, providing convenience for connection. At this time, the first cooperating mechanism on the wall body 10 cooperates with the first connecting mechanism 22 to form a locking mechanism, which can ensure that the berth base plate will not move or unfold arbitrarily in the first storage position.

[0053] It should be noted that the first connecting mechanism 22 and the first mating mechanism can be connected by means of buckles, slots, magnets, or locking tongues, etc., and the connection is stable and the unlocking operation is convenient and quick. Preferably, in one embodiment of this application, the first connecting mechanism 22 is a slot structure, and the first mating mechanism adopts a buckle protruding from the wall body 10. When the berth 20 is located in the first storage position, the buckle extends into the slot to form a mechanical lock. At the same time, a button is provided on one side of the berth base plate 21 near the slot structure of the first connecting mechanism 22. Pressing the button can push the other end of the button to disengage the buckle from the slot, thereby realizing the flip-up movement of the berth base plate 21.

[0054] In another embodiment of this application, the wall body 10 and the berth floor 21 are rotatably connected by hinges. At the same time, the two are also equipped with gas struts to improve the support strength of the berth 20 when it is in the first unfolded position. The two ends of the gas struts are rotatably connected to the wall body 10 and the berth floor 21, respectively. When the berth floor 21 is flipped so that the berth 20 is in the first unfolded position, the gas struts are at their maximum opening, which can provide additional support force for the berth floor 21 to ensure the stability of the berth floor 21.

[0055] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 , Figures 9 to 14As shown, the seat 30 includes a backrest 31, a seat cushion 32, and a headrest 33. The backrest 31 is connected to the wall body 10. One end of the seat cushion 32 is rotatably connected to one end of the backrest 31. The seat cushion 32 has a second accommodating space, at least a portion of which extends along the width of the seat cushion 32. The seat cushion 32 has a second stowed position and a second unfolded position. The headrest 33 is detachably connected to both the backrest 31 and the seat cushion 32, so that the headrest 33 has a first mounting position for assembling with the backrest 31 and a second mounting position for assembling with the seat cushion 32. The backrest 31 is directly fixedly connected to the wall body 10 as an integral support. One end of the seat cushion 32 is rotatably connected to one end of the backrest 31, so that the seat cushion 32 has a second stowed position that fits against the backrest 31 and a second unfolded position that rotates to a certain degree and separates from the backrest 31, to meet the needs of the target object in different scenarios.

[0056] It should be noted that the headrest 33 is detachably connected to the backrest 31 and seat cushion 32, allowing the headrest 33 to be switched between a first mounting position (attached to the backrest 31) and a second mounting position (attached to the seat cushion 32). This design allows users to flexibly adjust the usage mode of the seat 30 as needed. For example, in seat mode, the headrest 33 is attached to the backrest 31 to provide neck support; while in sleep mode, which extends the length of the berth 20, the headrest 33 can be attached to the seat cushion 32, extending into part of the berth, increasing comfort and space utilization efficiency. Through the fixation of the backrest 31, the rotation of the seat cushion 32, and the detachability and positional change of the headrest 33, the seat 30 can adapt to different usage scenarios, such as driving, resting, and sleeping, thereby significantly improving the driver's comfort.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figures 9 to 11 , Figure 14 As shown, the seat 30 also includes a second support rod 34. At least one second support rod 34 is movably disposed within a second receiving space along the width direction of the seat cushion 32. The second support rod 34 has a fourth storage position within the second receiving space and a second support position extending out of the second receiving space to support the seat cushion 32. By creating a second receiving space inside the seat cushion 32, the second receiving space can accommodate the second support rod 34, such that the second support rod 34 has a fourth storage position within the second receiving space and a second support position outside the second receiving space. That is, when the seat 30 is in the second storage position, the second support rod 34 can be selectively stored in the fourth storage position within the second receiving space, so that the second support rod 34 does not occupy additional space; when the seat 30 is in the second unfolded position, the second support rod 34 can be selectively located in the second support position, that is, the second support rod 34 extends out of the second receiving space to support the seat cushion 32.

[0058] In one embodiment of this application, a second slide rail is provided in the second accommodating space. The track of the second slide rail extends along the width direction of the seat cushion 32. The second support rod 34 can slide along the extension direction of the second slide rail. That is, when the second support rod 34 slides along the second slide rail into the second accommodating space, the second support rod 34 is located in the fourth storage position. When the second support rod 34 slides along the second slide rail to the outside of the second accommodating space, the second support rod 34 is located in the second support position. At this time, the second support rod 34 is rotatably connected to the second slide rail, so that the second support rod 34 can be flipped to a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface (i.e., the height direction of the wall body 10), which facilitates providing support force to the seat cushion 32.

[0059] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the multifunctional wall structure also includes a tabletop 40. The bottom of the berth base plate 21 is provided with a receiving groove 200. One end of the tabletop 40 is rotatably connected to at least one of the groove wall or the groove bottom of the receiving groove 200, so that the tabletop 40 has a fifth storage position stored in the receiving groove 200. The tabletop 40 also has a third unfolded position partially located outside the receiving groove 200. When the tabletop 40 is in the third unfolded position, the height of the tabletop 40 is greater than the height of the seat cushion 32. By providing a recessed groove 200 at the bottom of the berth base 21, a storage space is provided for the tabletop 40, allowing it to be hidden when not in use without affecting the normal use of other functions of the wall body 10. One end of the tabletop 40 is rotatably connected to the wall or bottom of the recessed groove 200, making the use of the tabletop 40 both convenient and space-saving. When the tabletop 40 is in the third unfolded position, part of the tabletop 40 will extend beyond the recessed groove 200. At this time, the height of the tabletop 40 is greater than the height of the seat cushion 32, forming a tabletop suitable for dining, working, or entertainment, providing additional flat space. This height setting helps users comfortably use the tabletop 40 on the seat 30, providing good support for dining, writing, or placing electronic devices. By integrating the tabletop 40 into the bottom of the berth base 21 and utilizing the recessed groove 200 for storage and unfolding, the functions of the tabletop 40 are seamlessly integrated through space utilization.

[0060] Specifically, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the tabletop 40 includes a plate 41 and a third support rod 43. One end of the plate 41 is rotatably connected to at least one of the groove wall or the bottom of the receiving groove 200. One end of at least one third support rod 43 is rotatably connected to the plate 41. The third support rod 43 has a sixth storage position that fits against the side of the plate 41 near the receiving groove 200, and a third support position that forms an angle with the plane of the plate 41. By rotatably connecting one end of the plate 41 to the groove wall or the bottom of the receiving groove 200, the tabletop 40 can rotate from the fifth storage position to the third unfolded position, and can be neatly stored in the receiving groove 200 at the bottom of the berth base 21 when not in use. When the tabletop 40 is in the fifth storage position, the third support rod 43 can be attached to and stored close to the side of the panel 41 near the receiving groove 200, reaching the sixth storage position, thus not occupying extra space and ensuring the tidiness of the cab interior. When the tabletop 40 is in the third unfolded position, the third support rod 43 can change from the sixth storage position attached to the panel 41 to the third support position with an angle to the plane of the panel 41, providing stable support for the tabletop 40 during use, ensuring its load-bearing capacity, and making it suitable for placing various items for work, dining, or other activities. Through the rotatable connection and position change of the third support rod 43, the tabletop 40 can be stably supported in the air during use, creating additional flat working space inside the cab. When the tabletop 40 is not in use, the third support rod 43 can be compactly stored under the tabletop 40, without occupying valuable space resources in the cab.

[0061] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, a third slide rail is provided on the wall of the receiving groove 200, and a cylindrical slider is provided at one end of the plate 41. The slider can slide along the extension direction of the third slide rail and can rotate within the third slide rail, so that while the plate 41 slides, it can rotate and unfold toward the side away from the receiving groove 200. At the same time, a support seat and a gas strut are provided at the other end of the receiving groove 200. The two ends of the gas strut are connected to the plate 41 and the support seat, respectively. While the plate 41 rotates, the support seat can move with the plate 41 so that the gas strut rotates to the position supporting the plate 41, thereby providing additional support for the plate 41 to ensure the stability of the tabletop 40.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the tabletop 40 also includes a second connecting mechanism 42, which is connected to the plate body 41. The second connecting mechanism 42 protrudes from the side of the plate body 41 away from the receiving groove 200. A second mating mechanism 201 is provided on the groove wall of the receiving groove 200 to cooperate with the second connecting mechanism 42. When the tabletop 40 is in the fifth storage position, the second connecting mechanism 42 and the second mating mechanism 201 are connected. Through the cooperation of the second connecting mechanism 42 and the second mating mechanism 201, the tabletop 40 can be stably stored in the receiving groove 200. The second connecting mechanism 42 and the second mating mechanism 201 can achieve a stable connection and convenient unlocking operation through mechanical structures such as buckles, magnetic attraction, and locking tongues. This allows the tabletop 40 to be safely and compactly stored under the sleeper floor 21 when not in use, which not only optimizes space utilization but also maintains the cleanliness and aesthetics of the cab interior and reduces potential safety hazards.

[0063] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the multi-functional wall structure also includes a soft cushion 50, which is connected to the wall body 10 and positioned on one side of the wall body 10. The soft cushion 50 is adjacent to the seat 30 and located on its outer side. Positioning the soft cushion 50 on one side of the wall body 10 and on the outer side of the seat 30 allows it to act as a lateral support for the seat 30, enhancing its comfort and providing more versatile functionality for the driver's cab. The position and design of the soft cushion 50 not only enhance the comfort of the seat 30, but also provide additional lateral support, especially during long drives or rest periods, reducing body pressure.

[0064] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the multi-functional wall structure also includes a storage cabinet 60, which is connected to the wall body 10. The storage cabinet 60 is located in a position other than the mounting positions of the seat 30 and the sleeper berth 20. The storage cabinet 60 has storage space for storing desired items. While the storage cabinet 60 is mounted on the wall body 10, it avoids overlapping with the mounting positions of the seat 30 and the sleeper berth 20, thus utilizing the space of other unoccupied mounting positions on the wall body 10. This avoids interfering with the use of the seat 30 and the sleeper berth 20, while making full use of every inch of space in the driver's cab. The storage cabinet 60 has internal storage space for storing desired items, such as daily necessities, driving documents, clothing, food, kitchen utensils, or any items the driver may need to carry and use during long-distance driving. By integrating the storage cabinet 60 into the wall body 10 and placing it in an area outside the seat 30 and berth 20, interference with existing functional areas is avoided, and the storage potential inside the cab is maximized. This allows users to conveniently and safely store and retrieve various items, enhancing the practicality of the cab. In this embodiment, the storage cabinet 60 is installed at a higher position on the wall body 10 to facilitate the utilization of the upper space of the wall body 10.

[0065] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the multifunctional wall structure also includes a shelf 70, which is connected to the wall body 10. The shelf 70 extends along the thickness of the wall body 10 and is used to place target items. The shelf 70 extends along the thickness of the wall body 10, which makes full use of the depth of the wall body 10, providing a relatively spacious planar space for placing various target items, such as cooking tools, food, water cups, documents, etc., providing a convenient platform, especially during meal preparation or work.

[0066] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the shelf 70 is located in the middle of the wall body 10, above the installation position of the berth 20 and below the installation position of the storage cabinet 60, so that an operating space is formed on the wall body 10 between the storage cabinet 60 and the shelf 70, in which the user can perform cooking, entertainment, leisure and other operations. The shelf 70 extends along the thickness direction of the wall body 10, so that a space for storing the berth 20 is formed below the shelf 70, and the shelf 70 can be used to place target items.

[0067] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the wall body 10 also has a power outlet 100, at least one of which is higher than the height of the shelf 70. The power outlet 100 is used to charge electronic devices and provide power to electrical appliances such as electric kettles and induction cookers. The height of at least one power outlet 100 is designed to be greater than the height of the shelf 70 to ensure that users can easily and safely access the power source when using items on the shelf 70 or preparing meals, without having to bend over or stretch their arms. The height of the power outlet 100 is set at a position easily accessible to the driver or passengers, while avoiding collisions or obstruction with items on the shelf 70. By providing a power outlet 100 on the wall body 10 at an appropriate height, this design improves the electrical environment inside the cab, facilitating the user's power needs during meal preparation, work, or rest, and enhancing the comfort and practicality of the cab as a living and working space.

[0068] According to another specific embodiment of this application, a vehicle is also provided, the vehicle having a multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle, the multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle being the multifunctional wall structure for the vehicle described in the above embodiments.

[0069] Specifically, the vehicle includes a cab, which has a driver's seat and a passenger seat, spaced apart along the length of the vehicle. To fully utilize the cab space, the driver's seat is centrally located at the front of the cab, while the passenger seat can be integrated into a multi-functional wall structure. Adjusting the passenger seat to different modes as needed further saves interior space.

[0070] This application also provides a preferred embodiment of a multifunctional wall structure for vehicles. The multifunctional wall structure is located at the rear of the driver's cab and integrates a sleeper berth 20, a seat 30, a storage cabinet 60, and a storage platform 70 in the form of a functional wall. Through the flip-up and unfolding of the sleeper berth 20 and seat 30, various scenarios can be transformed, including daily use, rear seating, sleeping, dining, food preparation, and storage, thereby enhancing the driver's living experience.

[0071] Specifically, the multifunctional wall structure consists of components such as a berth 20, a seat 30, a storage cabinet 60, a shelf 70, a table 40, and a soft cushion 50. The berth 20 is composed of a berth base 21, a berth mat, a first connecting mechanism 22, a first support rod 23, a first slide rail, a gas strut, and a pivot. The berth base 21 can rotate around the pivot to achieve two positions: folded up and unfolded. In the first unfolded position, the berth base 21 is flipped over, and the gas strut provides assistance, pulling the first support rod 23 out of the first slide rail and rotating it downwards to support it on the floor. In the first folded position, the berth base 21 is flipped upwards and connected to the wall body 10 containing the first cooperating mechanism via the first connecting mechanism 22. The first slide rail and the first support rod 23 are located in the first accommodating space of the berth base 21 and are hidden by the berth mat, with only a small portion of the first support rod 23 exposed on the side. In the first folded position, the first support rod 23 on the side is completely hidden.

[0072] The tabletop 40 is integrated into the berth floor 21. The tabletop 40 consists of a panel 41, a second connecting mechanism 42, a third support rod, a third slide rail, a support base, and a gas strut. The tabletop 40 has two positions: a fifth stowed position and a third unfolded position. In the fifth stowed position, the tabletop 40 is stowed inside the berth floor 21, and the panel 41 is fixed to the berth floor 21 by the second connecting mechanism 42. When the tabletop 40 is in the fifth stowed position, the second connecting mechanism 42 is flush with the panel 41. In the third unfolded position, pressing the second connecting mechanism 42 unlocks the panel, causing it to pop out. Simultaneously, the second connecting mechanism 42 acts as a handle, allowing the operator to pull it to unfold the tabletop 40. The panel 41 slides down the third slide rail to the usable position, the support base unfolds along the pivot, and the gas strut is fixed to the panel 41 and the support base to support the panel 41. The third support rod 43 is a two-fold type. When in the sixth storage position, it can be completely stored in the berth floor 21. When in use, the third support rod 43 is rotated out along the pivot and pulled down to support the floor.

[0073] The seat 30 consists of a backrest 31, a seat cushion 32, a headrest 33, a second support rod 34, a seat belt, a second slide rail, and a plug socket. The seat 30 has three modes: folded up, sitting, and sleeping. In the folded up mode, the seat cushion 32 flips upwards to be flush with the backrest 31, occupying minimal space and having a neat and aesthetically pleasing outer surface. In the sitting mode, the seat cushion 32 rotates around its pivot to the second unfolded position, the headrest plug of the headrest 33 is inserted into the backrest socket of the backrest 31, and the second support rod 34 rotates and unfolds, supporting the seat on the floor. In the sleeping mode, the headrest plug of the headrest 33 is inserted into the seat cushion socket of the seat cushion 32, and it can be combined with the berth 20 to form a complete berth working surface. By changing the first and second assembly positions of the headrest 33, it can be used in conjunction with the berth 20, forming two usage modes: rear seat sitting and sleeping.

[0074] The multifunctional wall in the above embodiments has the following multiple application scenarios:

[0075] In a spacious setting, the sleeper berth 20, seat 30, and table 40 are all stored away, taking up minimal space. They also form a wall with the storage cabinet 60 and the shelf 70, resulting in a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. This design frees up a large space in the cab, facilitating passenger movement within the vehicle.

[0076] In the rear passenger area, the sleeper berth 20 and the table 40 are both in the storage position, and the seat 30 is in the second unfolded position, which can meet the needs of passengers in the rear. The soft cushion 50 next to the seat 30 creates a sofa-like enveloping feeling.

[0077] In the sleep scenario, the berth 20 is in the first unfolded position, and the seat 30 is in the sleeping posture mode. The berth 20 and the seat 30 can be combined to form a complete resting surface. The soft backrest 50 of the seat 30 allows members to lean on it while resting on the berth 20, improving comfort.

[0078] In a dining setting, the table 40 is in its third unfolded position, and the seat 30 is in a sitting position, allowing passengers to sit facing the table 40 and eat while seated on the seat 30.

[0079] In the food preparation scenario, members can place kitchen utensils on the shelf 70 to cook and boil water. At the same time, a 220V power outlet 100 is installed on the wall unit 10 for convenient use of vehicle electrical appliances.

[0080] In terms of storage, the multi-functional wall unit has multiple storage cabinets (60 units), including top cabinets and bottom cabinets, which can meet the storage needs of items inside the vehicle.
