DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The front passenger seat's ride comfort is one of the important reference criteria for users when purchasing a car. During long-distance driving, the front passenger seat can provide passengers with a full-time rest space. The improvement in its comfort can not only enhance the front passenger's car experience, but also during driving when the driver needs to be replaced, the resting driver can quickly recover his energy in the front passenger seat. Therefore, research on the front passenger seat's ride comfort is one of the important directions in the automotive field.

[0030] In order to help those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, the following describes embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, the embodiments described below do not limit the scope of the invention as set forth in the claims. Furthermore, the entire contents of the embodiments described below are not necessarily required to serve as the solution of the invention as set forth in the claims.

[0031] See also Figure 1-8 The passenger platform with a footrest provided by the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes a footrest assembly 10, a support assembly 20, a locking assembly 30 and a shell 50, wherein the footrest assembly 10 is used to support the front passenger's feet, and can be hidden and unfolded for use. Specifically, the support assembly 20 is used to carry the footrest assembly 10, which includes two end positions. The first end of the support assembly 20 is rotatably connected to the footrest assembly 10 to carry the footrest assembly 10 and enable the footrest assembly 10 to rotate along the first end of the support assembly 20; the second end of the support assembly 20 is rotatably set on the fixed base 40. It should be noted that the fixed base 40 is used to connect to the vehicle body so that the support assembly 20 with a more complex structure can be standardized, and the fixed base 40 is adaptively designed to cooperate with the vehicle body structure. In the above structure, the fixed base 40 is the basic bearing component, the support assembly 20 is the transmission and support structure, and the footrest assembly 10 is the last moving component.

[0032] On the basis of the above structure, since both ends of the support assembly 20 are rotating connection structures, the footrest assembly 10 hinged to the first end of the support assembly 20 has two degrees of freedom of rotation. The first rotation mode is the rotation of the footrest assembly 10 along the first end of the support assembly 20. It should be noted that the rotation process of the footrest assembly 10 along the first end of the support assembly 20 includes at least a storage position and an expanded position. Based on actual use requirements, when the footrest assembly 10 is in the storage position during this rotation process, it is close to the support assembly 20, preferably in a position that fits the support assembly 20; and when the footrest assembly 10 is in the expanded position, it is expanded away from the support assembly 20, and is set at a certain angle to the support assembly 20 to meet the support requirements. The second rotation mode is that the footrest assembly 10 remains relatively stationary with the support assembly 20, and rotates along the second end of the support assembly 20 along with the support assembly 20. It should also be noted that the rotation process of the support assembly 20 along its second end includes at least a first position and a second position. Specifically, when the support assembly 20 is in the first position, it is completely embedded in the interior of the passenger platform for storage, thereby reducing the occupation of the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 in the interior space of the vehicle body; when the support assembly 20 is in the second position, it partially or completely extends out of the passenger platform, so as to be able to drive the footrest assembly 10 to move to a position that provides effective foot support for the passenger in the passenger seat.

[0033] Based on the connection structure of the above-mentioned footrest assembly 10, support assembly 20 and fixed base 40, during the use of the footrest assembly 10, when the support assembly 20 is rotated along its second end to the first position, and the footrest assembly 10 is rotated along the first end of the support assembly 20 to the storage position, the footrest assembly 10 is completely embedded in the shell 50 of the passenger platform. It should be noted that the shell 50 is used to constitute the external protective structure of the passenger platform. Specifically, the shell 50 can be the complete external protective structure of the passenger platform, or it can constitute a partial external protective structure, and be combined with the footrest assembly 10 to protect the internal structure of the passenger platform. So that when the footrest assembly 10 is fully embedded in the shell 50, the co-pilot position still has sufficient space for sitting and use without occupying the space inside the vehicle; and when the support assembly 20 is rotated along its second end to the second position, and the footrest assembly 10 is rotated along the first end of the support assembly 20 to the unfolded position, the footrest assembly 10 is unfolded at intervals at the bottom of the shell 50 of the co-pilot platform. Here, the footrest assembly 10 is unfolded at intervals at the bottom of the co-pilot platform specifically refers to that the footrest assembly 10 is arranged in a posture parallel to the ground, or partially parallel to the ground, so as to provide effective support for the co-pilot's feet.

[0034] It should be noted that, considering that the footrest assembly 10 can be stably located in a position for use at the bottom of the passenger platform under the influence of gravity and the limiting effect of the support assembly 20, and at the same time, during the use of the footrest assembly 10, the slight shaking of the footrest assembly 10 does not affect its use requirements; and the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 are difficult to maintain a stable state by themselves when stored inside the passenger platform, in order to avoid the abnormal escape of the footrest assembly 10 during driving, which affects the occupancy of the vehicle interior, the embodiment of the present invention is also provided with a locking assembly 30. When the support assembly 20 is in the first position and the footrest assembly 10 is in the storage position, the footrest assembly 10 is fully embedded in the passenger platform and is locked by the locking assembly 30 to maintain the structural stability of the passenger platform area.

[0035] The passenger platform with a footrest provided in an embodiment of the present invention connects the footrest assembly 10 and the vehicle body through a support assembly 20, and at the same time, both ends of the support assembly 20 are designed as hinged structures to respectively realize a rotational connection with the footrest assembly 10 and the fixed base 40, so that for the footrest assembly 10 at the end, it can follow the support assembly 20 and rotate along the second end of the support assembly 20, and at the same time, it can rotate alone along the first end of the support assembly 20, and can achieve a larger position change, so as to adapt to the position of the passenger platform for setting. On this basis, when the support assembly 20 rotates to the first position along its second end, and the footrest assembly 10 rotates to the storage position along the first end of the support assembly 20, the footrest assembly 10 is completely embedded in the passenger platform and is locked by the locking assembly 30, so that the passenger position still has sufficient seating and use space without occupying the space inside the vehicle; and when the support assembly 20 rotates to the second position along its second end, and the footrest assembly 10 rotates to the unfolded position, the footrest assembly 10 is unfolded at the bottom of the passenger platform to meet the passenger's foot support needs and improve the riding comfort of the passenger.

[0036] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the locking effect of the locking assembly 30 when the footrest assembly 10 is stored in the passenger platform, in some embodiments of the present invention, the locking assembly 30 is configured as a split configuration to reduce its installation difficulty and enable locking to be achieved through docking. Specifically, the locking assembly 30 includes a fixed portion 310 and a movable portion 320, wherein the fixed portion 310 is a fixed reference structure, which is fixedly arranged on the shell 50 of the passenger platform, and the movable portion 320 is arranged on the footrest assembly 10 to move synchronously with the footrest assembly 10, and it should be noted that when the locking assembly 30 needs to be operated, that is, when the support assembly 20 is in the first position and the footrest assembly 10 is in the storage position, the movable portion 320 contacts and locks with the fixed portion 310. It should be noted that the contact locking between the movable part 320 and the fixed part 310 here refers to the connection relationship between the movable part 320 and the fixed part 310, which satisfies the limitation of the footrest assembly 10. The footrest assembly 10 can be limited and locked by means of adhesive connection, snap contact locking connection, or magnetic connection.

[0037] To further optimize the above technical solution, in some embodiments of the present invention, the fixed portion 310 and the movable portion 320 are connected by magnetic attraction to achieve positional locking of the footrest assembly 10. It should be noted that when the support assembly 20 is in the first position and the footrest assembly 10 is in the stowed position, the magnetic attraction force between the fixed portion 310 and the movable portion 320 is greater than the gravity of the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20, thereby enabling the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 to achieve stable positional locking.

[0038] Specifically, its magnetic attraction structure can be a simple magnet attraction connection, that is, an attraction force is generated when the fixed part 310 and the movable part 320 are close to a certain distance. On this basis, when the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 need to be rotated out from the inside of the passenger platform, the passenger needs to manually overcome the attraction force of the locking assembly 30. A handle can be provided on the footrest assembly 10 to facilitate passenger operation. At the same time, the magnetic attraction structure can also be an electromagnet attraction structure, specifically, the fixed part 310 includes a metal base and an electromagnetic coil, and the movable part 320 includes a mounting seat and a permanent magnet, specifically, when no current passes through the electromagnetic coil, the permanent magnet can be magnetically connected to the metal base, that is, when no current passes through the electromagnetic coil, when the support assembly 20 is in the first position, and the footrest assembly 10 is in the storage position, the fixed part 310 is magnetically connected to the movable part 320 and limits the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20; and when the electromagnetic coil is energized, the fixed part 310 and the movable part 320 generate a repulsive magnetic force, that is, when the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 need to be rotated out from the inside of the co-pilot platform, it is only necessary to energize the electromagnetic coil, and under the action of the repulsive magnetic force between the fixed part 310 and the movable part 320, the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 can be popped out from the inside of the co-pilot platform, and operated by the passenger to perform subsequent rotation actions. It should be noted that the electrically controlled locking assembly 30 can more conveniently realize the pop-up of the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 from the first position, thereby reducing the difficulty of manual operation for the passenger and improving the riding experience.

[0039] On the basis of the above embodiment, the circuit where the electromagnetic coil is located can be designed as a normally-off circuit, that is, under normal conditions, the fixed portion 310 and the movable portion 320 can be connected by attraction, and an operating button for manually controlling the circuit path is provided on the circuit. When the passenger needs to eject the footrest assembly 10, he only needs to press the operating button to energize the electromagnetic coil, and the fixed portion 310 and the movable portion 320 repel each other and eject the footrest assembly 10. The control process is convenient and fast. In a further technical solution, the operating button has an automatic reset function, that is, the operating button will automatically reset within a first preset time after the pressing force disappears. Here, the first preset time is sufficient for the passenger to rotate the footrest assembly 10 out of the passenger console. After the button is reset, the circuit returns to the open circuit state. After the passenger rotates the footrest assembly 10 back into the passenger console again, the fixed portion 310 and the movable portion 320 will be attracted to maintain the limit locking state of the connecting frame.

[0040] The reset action after pressing the operation button can be achieved by the reset effect of the spring or torsion spring, and the specific length of the first preset time can be adjusted by selecting springs or torsion springs with different elastic coefficients to meet the passenger's opening time requirements.

[0041] Furthermore, in the passenger platform with a footrest provided in the embodiment of the present invention, an opening is provided on the passenger side of the passenger platform for storing and rotating the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20. At the same time, a cover plate can be provided on the opening of the passenger platform to ensure the integrity of the decorative surface of the passenger platform when the footrest assembly 10 and the support assembly 20 are stored. In order to reduce the complexity of the above structure, in the passenger platform provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the footrest assembly 10 is a box structure with a certain thickness, which includes an inner plate 110 and an outer plate 120 that are relatively arranged, and the outer plate 120 is fitted with the opening area provided on the decorative surface of the passenger platform. Fitting here specifically means that the outer plate 120 can block the opening and connect with the structure around the opening on the passenger platform to form a complete decorative surface structure. It should be noted that the shape of the inner panel 110 can be set according to actual needs, and it only needs to meet the needs of supporting the passenger's feet. Preferably, the inner panel 110 is an arc-shaped structure, so that the front passenger's feet have a circular arc support surface, thereby optimizing the front passenger's foot support needs. In the above embodiment, when the support assembly 20 is in the first position and the footrest assembly 10 is in the storage position, the outer panel 120 of the footrest assembly 10 faces the front passenger, and the driving platform maintains a complete decorative surface structure; when the support assembly 20 is in the second position and the footrest assembly 10 is in the deployed position, the outer panel 120 is set towards the chassis of the vehicle body, and it will not interfere with the passenger's foot structure, but maintain its cleanliness. At the same time, the inner panel 110 is vertically upward to meet the front passenger's foot support needs, and the arc-shaped inner panel 110 can also provide multi-angle support for the passenger's feet, thereby improving the passenger's car experience.

[0042] On the basis of the above embodiment, in order to enhance the structural strength of the footrest assembly 10 and reduce the risk of deformation of the box-shaped footrest assembly 10, a reinforcement bracket 130 is further provided between the inner plate 110 and the outer plate 120. The reinforcement bracket 130 can be "mouth" or "well" shaped. The inner plate 110 and the outer plate 120 are respectively fixedly provided on either side of the reinforcement bracket 130, so that the inner plate 110 and the outer plate 120 have effective support. At the same time, the footrest assembly 10 is rotatably connected to the support assembly 20 through the reinforcement bracket 130, so that the connection is stable through the area of ​​the footrest assembly 10 with higher structural strength.

[0043] Taking into account the relatively weak strength of some hinged structures in the prior art, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, in order to enhance the structural strength and supporting connection effect of the support assembly 20, the support assembly 20 includes a first link 210 and a second link 220 having a curved configuration. At the same time, the two ends of the first link 210 are respectively hinged to the fixed base 40 and the footrest assembly 10, while the two ends of the second link 220 are also respectively hinged to the fixed base 40 and the footrest assembly 10. It should be specifically noted that the arrangement of the rod itself has relatively high strength, and the rod can transfer torque to the hinge structure through the hinge connection. On this basis, strengthening the design of components such as the pin at the hinge can enhance the service life of the rotating structure, and the curved first link 210 and the second link 220 can provide avoidance space for the structural arrangement of the support assembly 20 and the footrest assembly 10, and reduce the risk of stress concentration.

[0044] Based on the above embodiment, the first connecting rod 210 is used as an example for explanation. The first connecting rod 210 and the fixed base 40 are rotatably connected via a pin. At the same time, a wear-resistant block 2110 is provided between the first connecting rod 210 and the fixed base 40. The wear-resistant block 2110 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pin and contacts the support assembly 20 and the fixed base 40 on both sides, respectively, to prevent the side edges of the first connecting rod 210 from directly contacting the fixed base 40 and causing wear during rotation. The wear-resistant block 2110 is preferably in the form of a circular ring with a central axis running through it, and can be made of commonly used gaskets such as rubber or nylon sheet.

[0045] It should be noted that, for the first connecting rod 210 and the second connecting rod 220, wear-resistant blocks 2110 can be provided at the hinged positions according to the contact conditions to avoid damage to the connecting rods during the rigid contact rotation process.

[0046] On this basis, the first connecting rod 210 is also provided with a hydraulic damping cylinder 2120, which is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 210 at a position spaced apart from the pin shaft. The hydraulic damping cylinder 2120 is used to reduce impact and noise through hydraulic pressure. Therefore, it can also slow down the movement speed of the first connecting rod 210 in the event of a failure of the first connecting rod 210, thereby protecting the first connecting rod 210 and the support assembly 20. It should also be noted that the end of the first connecting rod 210 hinged to the footrest assembly 10 is also provided with a damping block 2130. During the rotation process of the first connecting rod 210 with the first end of the support assembly 20 as the rotation center, the damping block 2130 acts to achieve shock absorption and buffering functions, thereby improving the smoothness and stability of the footrest assembly 10 during rotation, enhancing the rotation feel, and reducing the risk of bumps.

[0047] It should be noted that the above embodiment only describes the hinge structure at the end of the first connecting rod 210. The hinge structure at the end of the second connecting rod 220 may be the same as that of the first connecting rod 210, which will not be described in detail here.

[0048] Furthermore, during the rotation of the footrest assembly 10, it will be driven and supported by the support assembly 20. Therefore, the structure and setting position of the support assembly 20 are crucial to the rotation stability of the footrest assembly 10. In some embodiments of the present invention, two groups of support assemblies 20 are provided, and the two groups of support assemblies 20 are respectively provided on the two side edges of the footrest assembly 10 in the width direction of the vehicle body, so as to lift the footrest assembly 10 from both sides of the footrest assembly 10, thereby achieving a more uniform support effect on the footrest assembly 10 and improving the operating stability of the footrest assembly 10.

[0049] Similarly, in other embodiments of the present invention, a single group of support components 20 is provided. At the same time, the support components 20 of the single group structure are arranged at the center line position of the footrest component 10 in the width direction of the vehicle body, so that the area of ​​the footrest components 10 on both sides of the support component 20 is similar, the force is evenly distributed, and the risk of deflection is reduced.

[0050] It should be noted that multiple groups of support components 20 can be set according to the size of the footrest component 10, but it is preferred that two groups of support components 20 be selected to connect to both sides of the footrest component 10 when the supporting force meets the support strength requirements of the footrest component 10, that is, when the footrest component 10 does not pose a risk of partial area collapse, so as to meet the requirement of stable rotation of the footrest component 10.

[0051] Furthermore, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a vehicle having a passenger platform with a footrest provided in any of the above embodiments installed in front of the passenger seat. Since the passenger platform with a footrest has the above-mentioned effects, the above-mentioned vehicle also has corresponding effects, which will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that the above-mentioned vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, a fuel vehicle, etc.
