[0040] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0041] This utility model discloses a motorhome roof lifting system.

[0042] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the RV roof lifting system may include an RV body 1, a roof 2, a left side panel 3, a right side panel 4, a front side panel 5, and a rear side panel 6.

[0043] Preferably, the left side panel 3, right side panel 4, front side panel 5, and rear side panel 6 can be made of sandwich rigid panels.

[0044] The roof 2 is located on top of the RV body 1 and is connected to it via a lifting device 7. The roof 2 can be raised or lowered by raising or lowering the lifting device 7.

[0045] For example, the lifting device 7 can be an electric telescopic rod, a hydraulic telescopic rod, or a scissor lift.

[0046] The left side panel 3 is movably connected to the top left side of the RV compartment 1, and the side of the left side panel 3 is connected to the compartment roof 2 through the first linking mechanism 8.

[0047] For example, the first linking mechanism 8 includes a first connecting rod 801 and a first connecting pin 802; the first connecting rod 801 has a bent structure and a first sliding groove 803 is provided on the first connecting rod 801. One end of the first connecting rod 801 is movably connected to the roof cover 2 of the carriage, and the other end is connected to the side of the left side plate 3 through the first connecting pin 802 and the first sliding groove 803, so that when the lifting device 7 drives the roof cover 2 to rise or fall, the first linking mechanism 8 can drive the left side plate 3 to stand up or lie flat.

[0048] For example, the left side panel 3 can be movably connected to the top left side of the RV compartment 1 via a hinged structure, such as a hinge or hinge.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, there are two first linking mechanisms 8. The two first linking mechanisms 8 are respectively disposed at the front and rear ends of the left side plate 3.

[0050] The right side panel 4 is movably connected to the top right side of the RV compartment 1, and the side of the right side panel 4 is connected to the compartment roof 2 via the second linking mechanism 9.

[0051] For example, the second linking mechanism 9 includes a second link 901 and a second connecting pin 902; the second link 901 has a bent structure and a second slide groove 903 is provided on the second link 901; one end of the second link 901 is movably connected to the top cover 2 of the carriage, and the other end is connected to the side of the right side plate 4 through the second connecting pin 902 and the second slide groove 903, so that when the lifting device 7 drives the top cover 2 of the carriage to rise or fall, the second linking mechanism 9 can drive the left side plate 3 to stand up or lie flat.

[0052] For example, the right side panel 4 can be movably connected to the top right side of the RV compartment 1 via a hinged structure, such as a hinge or hinge joint.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, there are two second linking mechanisms 9. The two second linking mechanisms 9 are respectively disposed at the front and rear ends of the right side plate 4.

[0054] The front side panel 5 is movably connected to the bottom front side of the carriage roof 2, and the side of the front side panel 5 is connected to the carriage roof 2 through the third linking mechanism 10.

[0055] For example, the front side panel 5 can be movably connected to the bottom front side of the roof 2 of the carriage via a hinged structure, such as a hinge or hinge.

[0056] The rear side panel 6 is movably connected to the rear bottom of the carriage roof 2, and the side of the rear side panel 6 is connected to the carriage roof 2 through the fourth linking mechanism 11.

[0057] For example, the rear side panel 6 can be movably connected to the rear bottom of the carriage roof 2 via a hinged structure, such as a hinge or hinge.

[0058] Among them, the left side panel 3, right side panel 4, front side panel 5 and rear side panel 6 can also be connected and fixed to the RV body 1 and the body roof 2 by magnetic attraction.

[0059] For example, in the retracted state, the front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6 can be magnetically attached to the bottom of the carriage roof 2 by means of the first magnet assembly and the second magnet assembly, respectively.

[0060] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the front side panel 5 is connected to the roof 2 of the vehicle compartment via a first detachable connecting mechanism; the rear side panel 6 is connected to the roof 2 of the vehicle compartment via a second detachable connecting mechanism. For example, the first and second detachable connecting mechanisms can be safety chains, such as anti-theft chains, or connecting structures formed by pins and holes.

[0061] For example, in the unfolded state, the upper ends of the left side panel 3 and the right side panel 4 are magnetically attached to the roof 2 of the vehicle body by the third and fourth magnet assemblies, respectively. The front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6 are magnetically attached to the vehicle body 1 by the fifth and sixth magnet assemblies, respectively. The fifth and sixth magnet assemblies also serve to limit the movement of the front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6.

[0062] In this embodiment, the magnet assembly may consist of one or more electromagnets or permanent magnets.

[0063] In a preferred embodiment, a receiving groove 201 is provided at the bottom of the roof 2, allowing the left side panel 3, right side panel 4, front side panel 5, and rear side panel 6 to fold into the receiving groove 201 in the retracted state. Furthermore, a sealing structure is provided between the RV body 1 and the roof 2, ensuring a seal between them in the retracted state. For example, the sealing structure may be a sealing ring disposed between the RV body 1 and the roof 2.

[0064] The working process of the RV roof lifting system of this utility model is as follows:

[0065] In the initial state, the RV cabin 1 and the cabin roof 2 of this utility model are closed together. When the cabin roof 2 needs to be unfolded, the lifting device 7 is activated to lift the cabin roof 2 upward. During the process of the cabin roof 2 rising, the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are rotated from a horizontal state to a vertical state through the first linking mechanism 8 and the second linking mechanism 9. At the same time, the upper ends of the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are magnetically attracted and fixed to the cabin roof 2. After the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are rotated to a vertical state, the front side plate 5 and the rear side plate 6 are pulled to overcome the magnetic force between the front side plate 5 and the rear side plate 6 and the cabin roof 2, unfolding the front side plate 5 and the rear side plate 6 to a vertical state. The lower ends of the front side plate 5 and the rear side plate 6 are magnetically attracted and fixed to the RV cabin 1, thereby completing the unfolding of the RV cabin roof.

[0066] When it is necessary to restore the roof of the vehicle to its initial state, the front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6 are pulled to overcome the magnetic force between the front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6 and the RV body 1. The front side panel 5 and the rear side panel 6 are folded to the bottom of the roof of the vehicle 2 and fixed to the roof of the vehicle 2 by magnetic attraction. The safety chain provides secondary reinforcement and secondary protection. Then, the lifting device 7 is activated to lower the roof of the vehicle 2. During the descent of the roof of the vehicle 2, the first linking mechanism 8 and the second linking mechanism 9 drive the left side panel 3 and the right side panel 4 to rotate from the vertical state to the horizontal state, thereby completing the retraction.

[0067] This utility model's RV roof lifting system uses magnetic attraction to fix the front, rear, left, and right side panels to the RV roof and RV body, replacing the mechanical fixing method of pins. This is more aesthetically pleasing and convenient. A connecting mechanism is used to connect the left and right side panels, which can be pulled by the connecting mechanism to achieve automatic opening and closing of the side panels. The structure is simple. In addition, the front and rear side panels can be flipped up and magnetically fixed to the bottom of the RV roof, and connected by a safety chain to provide secondary protection. At the same time, the side panels are replaced with sandwich hard panels, which improves the aesthetics and heat insulation effect.

[0068] It should be noted that all features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in all methods or processes disclosed, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0069] Furthermore, the specific embodiments described above are exemplary. Those skilled in the art can devise various solutions inspired by the disclosure of this utility model, and these solutions all fall within the scope of this utility model and its protection. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model specification and its drawings are illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
