[0028] Embodiment 1:

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a novel light truck cab with a berth, including a cab body 1 and a berth body 2, the cab body 1 including side panels 11 located on both sides for installing doors, a top cover 13 arranged on the top and a rear panel 12 arranged at the rear, the berth body 2 is arranged at the top position of the two side panels 11 and is rotatably connected to the rear panel 12.

[0030] Specifically, by setting a berth in the cab to provide a rest space for the driver, the driver can rest and rotate during battery charging or transportation. By setting the berth body 2 above the side wall 11, that is, setting a rest area above the cab body 1, the driver can step on the seat to rest on the berth without occupying the driving operation space below, thereby optimizing the space utilization in the cab. At the same time, the berth body 2 and the cab body 1 are set to a rotatable connection and fixing mode, which is convenient for rotating and storing the berth body 2, and better optimizing the utilization of the space in the cab.

[0031] It should be noted that, in order to meet the needs of the driver in the cab for rest, the sleeper body 2 of the present application can meet the following usage requirements:

[0032] a. Designed to carry 100kg of personnel;

[0033] b. The installation structure must meet the strength and fatigue life requirements;

[0034] c. Safe to use;

[0035] d. Easy to store;
