Detailed Implementation
[0023] This utility model, a front-engine passenger bus, primarily addresses the issue of limited rear luggage compartment space in existing front-engine passenger buses. The basic inventive concept is to fully utilize the space behind the vehicle frame to create a rear luggage compartment. The luggage compartment is enclosed on both sides by left and right sides. While maintaining the same width, the front, bottom, and top of the luggage compartment are designed to maximize its depth and height, thereby increasing the internal space. The rear luggage compartment eliminates the need for a spare tire installation structure, preventing the spare tire from occupying space and improving its overall neatness, thus ensuring full utilization of the rear luggage compartment space.
[0024] Based on the above inventive concept, the embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model of a front-engine passenger bus includes a chassis, which comprises a frame 1, a front suspension 2, and a rear suspension 3. The engine 4 is positioned at the front of the frame 1. A rear luggage compartment 7 is located at the rear of the frame 1, and a spare tire 5 is positioned at the bottom of the frame 1, in front of the rear axle. The spare tire does not occupy the rear space of the frame 1, allowing for full utilization of the rear luggage compartment 7 and increasing its volume. The spare tire 5 is positioned outside the rear luggage compartment 7, preventing it from encroaching on the interior space and ensuring a cohesive and organized luggage area, thus maximizing the use of the interior space. The spare tire 5 is positioned in the middle of the bottom of the frame 1. Since the middle of the bottom of the frame 1 has virtually no interfering structures, this placement is preferred, facilitating easy installation and removal of the spare tire. Alternatively, the spare tire could also be positioned at the front of the bottom of the frame 1.
[0026] The rear suspension 3 specifically adopts a composite suspension, such as... Figure 2As shown, the composite suspension is composed of leaf spring 3-1 and airbag 3-2. Leaf spring 3-1 is fixed to the rear axle, and its front end is connected to the vehicle frame 1. Airbag 3-2 is fixed to leaf spring 3-1, located at the rear, with its upper part fixed to the bottom of the vehicle frame 1. This composite suspension is a mature, existing product and will not be described in detail here. The rear suspension 3 uses a composite suspension. Compared to a leaf spring suspension, the rear suspension of the chassis is shorter, as shown... Figure 1 As shown, with a fixed rear overhang, the space along the vehicle's length is utilized to the maximum extent, extending the front of the rear luggage compartment 7 forward to increase its depth and effectively improve its volume. Of course, the rear suspension 3 can also use an air suspension; compared to air suspension, a composite suspension is less expensive and can be chosen based on actual conditions.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figures 3-4 As shown, the rear luggage compartment 7 is formed by the left and right side panels (not shown in the figure), the upper floor frame 6, and the bottom wall panel 9 behind the frame 1. The width of the rear luggage compartment 7 is consistent with the width of the vehicle body. The front, bottom, and top positions of the rear luggage compartment 7 are designed so that the horizontal distance between the front wall panel 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 and the rear wheel center is between 400mm and 800mm, and the vertical distance between the bottom wall panel 9 of the rear luggage compartment 7 and the ground is between 250mm and 600mm. The top of the rear luggage compartment 7 is mainly formed by the foot pedal 14 of the last row seat, the mounting plate 13 of the last row seat, the step vertical plate 10 between the foot pedal 14 of the last row seat and the mounting plate 13 of the last row seat, and the sloping plate part 15 on the back of the last row seat. This increases the depth and height of the rear luggage compartment 7, thereby increasing the interior space of the rear luggage compartment 7.
[0028] Preferably, the horizontal distance between the front wall panel 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 and the rear wheel center is between 500mm and 550mm. This distance range maximizes the depth of the rear luggage compartment 7 while minimizing the possibility of the front of the rear luggage compartment 7 extending too far forward and interfering with the rear wheel assembly. In a preferred embodiment, the front wall panel 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 is positioned close to the rear of the rear wheel arch, and the horizontal distance between the rear wheel arch and the rear wheel center is 520mm. This arrangement maximizes the depth of the rear luggage compartment 7 while avoiding interference with the rear wheel assembly at the front end.
[0029] Preferably, the bottom wall plate 9 of the rear luggage compartment 7 is consistent with the height of the side wall bottom skirt, and the side wall bottom skirt is 380 mm from the ground. In this way, the height of the rear luggage compartment 7 can be increased as much as possible, and the vehicle has good passability, and the bottom of the rear luggage compartment 7 is not too low to affect the passability of the vehicle. The top of the rear luggage compartment 7 is mainly surrounded by the footboard 14 of the last row of seats, the last row of seat mounting plates 13 and the step vertical plate 10 therebetween. In this way, the top of the rear luggage compartment 7 can reach the limit position, and the height of the rear luggage compartment 7 can be increased to the maximum extent.
[0030] Of course, the above is only a preferred embodiment of the position design of the front and bottom of the rear luggage compartment 7.

Moreover, there are many engine front passenger car models, and the positions of the front wall plate 8 and the bottom wall plate 9 of the rear luggage compartment 7 of different passenger car models can also be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, in other embodiments, the front wall plate 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 can also be located at the rear side of the rear wheel cover, and the horizontal distance between the front wall plate 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 and the rear wheel center can be 530 mm, 550 mm, 600 mm, 700 mm, 800 mm, etc., and the maximum distance is 800 mm. If the distance exceeds 800 mm, the depth of the rear luggage compartment 7 is small, and the space is not significantly increased. In other embodiments, the horizontal distance between the front wall plate 8 of the rear luggage compartment 7 and the rear wheel center can also be less than 520 mm, such as 510 mm, 500 mm, 450 mm, 400 mm, etc., and the minimum distance is 400 mm.
[0031] In other embodiments, the bottom wall plate 9 of the rear luggage compartment 7 can also be higher or lower than the side wall bottom skirt, and the vertical distance between the bottom wall plate 9 and the ground can be 250 mm, 300 mm, 400 mm, 500 mm, 600 mm, etc., and the minimum ground clearance is 250 mm, and the maximum ground clearance is 600 mm. If the ground clearance is too small, the passability of the vehicle will be sacrificed, and if the ground clearance is too large, the height of the rear luggage compartment 7 will be sacrificed.
[0032] As Figures 5-6As shown, the hatch of the rear luggage compartment 7 is provided with a hatch door 11, the hatch door 11 is provided with a handle part, the hatch door 11 comprises a door body and a rear bumper 12 fixedly connected to the lower side of the door body, the door body and the rear bumper 12 are integrated into one body, and there is no rear bumper 12 blocking after the hatch door 11 is opened, which improves the convenience of taking luggage. The bottom edge of the hatch of the rear luggage compartment 7 is sealingly connected with the rear bumper 12, and the rear side of the backrest of the last row of seats is provided with a inclined plate part 15 inclined from front to back and from bottom to top, and the top edge of the hatch of the rear luggage compartment 7 is located at the top of the inclined plate part 15, so that the hatch is larger and more convenient for taking and placing luggage. Of course, in other embodiments, the hatch door 11 and the rear bumper 12 can also be separately provided, and the luggage can be taken and placed by avoiding the rear bumper 12 after the hatch door 11 is opened. More preferably, the hatch door 11 is an up-down translation type hatch door, which makes it more convenient to open the hatch door 11. The hatch door 11 is moved upward to open, and it is not easy to hit the head during the opening process and after the luggage is taken and placed, and the safety is better.
