[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a deformable rear middle seat for automobiles includes a base 1, a cushion 2 is mounted on the upper side of the base 1, the front end of the cushion 2 is flipped relative to the base 1, the cushion 2 is flipped forward, and the cushion 2 can be flipped from a horizontal state to a vertical state. When the cushion 2 is flipped to a vertical state, its upper end can form a functional support surface a.

[0033] A backrest 3 is also arranged at the rear end of the base 1. When the seat cushion 2 is flipped to a vertical position, the backrest 3 can be laid forward and placed horizontally in the space behind the seat cushion 2. In this embodiment, the backrest 3 can be a seat backrest or an armrest body integrated into the backrest of the middle rear seat.

[0034] By flipping the seat cushion 2 of the rear middle seat forward, compared to the traditional method of only flipping the backrest 3 forward, an additional functional support surface 'a' is created on top of the seat cushion 2 when it is flipped to a vertical position. This increases the support area of ​​the transformed center armrest, ensuring a more comfortable experience for passengers. In addition, the combined flipping design of the seat cushion 2 and backrest 3 makes the overall structure after transforming into the center armrest more aesthetically pleasing and less bulky.

[0035] In this embodiment, the front end of the seat cushion 2 is flipped and mounted on the front end of the base 1 via a first drive mechanism. Specifically, as shown below... Figure 7 As shown, the first drive mechanism includes a first motor 4 and two first angle adjusters 5. The first motor 4 is fixedly installed inside the front end of the seat cushion 2, and the two first angle adjusters 5 are respectively installed between the front ends of the seat cushion 2 and the base 1. The first motor 4 and the two first angle adjusters 5 are connected by a first synchronizing rod 6. With this design, driving the first motor 4 can electrically control the seat cushion 2 to flip back and forth.

[0036] Further, a support 7 is arranged at the rear end of the base 1, and the lower end of the backrest 3 is rotatably installed on the support 7 through a second driving mechanism, as shown in detail in Figure 6 The second driving mechanism is a second motor 8 fixedly installed on one side of the support 7, and the left and right sides of the backrest 3 are each rotatably connected to the support 7 through a second angle adjuster 9. The second motor 8 is drivingly connected to the two second angle adjusters 9 through a synchronous rod 10. In this way, the backrest 3 can be electrically controlled to flip forward.

[0037] In this embodiment, in addition to electrically controlling the flip of the seat cushion 2 and the backrest 3, the deformation of the middle seat in the rear row can also be achieved through manual flip.

[0038] As shown in Figure 4 , a small table 11 is integrated inside the seat cushion 2, and when the seat cushion 2 is flipped forward to a vertical state, the small table 11 can be unfolded outward from the functional support surface a at the top of the seat cushion 2. Through the small table 11, it is convenient for the occupant to work and eat in the car, and the overall use function of the middle seat in the rear row is increased. The specific design can be, please refer to Figure 8 , the seat cushion 2 is provided with a hollow storage cavity 2a, and the small table 11 is folded and stored in the hollow storage cavity 2a. When the seat cushion 2 is flipped forward to a vertical state, the top of the hollow storage cavity 2a is an open structure, and a roller shutter sliding door 2b is arranged on the open structure. In the closed state, the roller shutter sliding door 2b constitutes the above-mentioned functional support surface a. After the roller shutter sliding door 2b is pulled open to one side, the small table 11 can be unfolded from the upper end of the hollow storage cavity 2a for use.

[0039] As shown in Figure 5 , a storage groove 3a is formed on the back of the backrest 3, and when the backrest 3 is laid forward to a horizontal position, the storage groove 3a can be used to place articles, thereby facilitating the storage of articles.

[0040] Further, a cover plate 12 is installed on the back of the backrest 3, and the cover plate 12 can be flipped forward and backward relative to the backrest 3. When the backrest 3 is flipped forward to a horizontal position, the cover plate 12 is flipped backward, so that the upper end of the storage groove 3a is open. Flipping the cover plate 12 forward can make the storage groove 3a in a closed state. That is, by flipping the cover plate 12, the opening and closing of the storage groove 3a can be controlled.

[0041] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 5 , a mobile phone storage groove 3b is formed on the back of the backrest 3, and the mobile phone storage groove 3b is formed at the upper end of the storage groove 3a. When the backrest 3 is flipped forward to a horizontal position and the cover plate 12 is flipped forward to a horizontal state, the front end of the cover plate 12 can cover the top of the rear end of the mobile phone storage groove 3b. Through the arrangement of the mobile phone storage groove 3b, it is convenient for the rear row occupant to place the mobile phone, and in addition, it is also convenient for the occupant to flip the cover plate 12 backward.

[0042] Embodiment two:

[0043] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 A vehicle four-five seat convertible cabin layout structure, comprising a front row main driver seat, a front row co-driver seat, a rear row left side seat 13 and a rear row right side seat 14, wherein the front row main driver seat and the front row co-driver seat are not shown in this embodiment, and the rear row left side seat 13 and the rear row right side seat 14 are arranged with the automobile rear row middle seat capable of being deformed as described in embodiment one.

[0044] By turning over and deforming the seat cushion 2 and the backrest 3 into a rear row central armrest table, the interior cabin of the automobile is changed from five seats to four seats, and the overall deformation is very convenient, and through the combined deformation design of the seat cushion 2 and the backrest 3, the supporting area of the rear row central armrest table is increased, thereby ensuring the riding comfort of the passengers.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and those skilled in the art can make various similar expressions under the inspiration of the present application without violating the purpose and claims of the present application, and such changes fall within the protection scope of the present application.
