[0002] From the German patent application DE 10 2011 056 355 A1 a storage table of a motor vehicle is known, comprising a package of slats which can be displaced between a storage position at least approximately completely received in a guide and a use position partially pulled out of the guide, wherein the slats extend transversely to the direction of displacement, the guide has at least one curved section with respect to the direction of displacement, and a clamping device is provided which can be adjusted between a locking position in which the slats are clamped together to form a substantially rigid slat package, and a release position in which the slats are movable relative to one another.From the German patent specification DE 195 16 011 C1 a folding table for vehicles is known with a table holder for fastening in the vehicle and with a table top which is pivotally mounted on the table holder for transferring from a use position to a non-use position and vice versa, which table top is composed of segments which are articulated to one another and can be clamped by means of a clamping device on the table holder and which can be transferred from the use position into a position which is at least potentially harmful to the table user in the event of extreme vehicle deceleration, wherein a plurality of segments are provided which can be clamped against one another by means of at least one tensioning belt running on their upper and lower sides by means of the tensioning device on the table holder, wherein the tensioning device is deactivated in the event of extreme vehicle deceleration.From the German utility model DE 82 26 842 U1, an extendable wall table is known, in particular a balcony table, characterized by two guide elements arranged essentially parallel to one another with a distance corresponding to the width of a slatted strip; a Venetian blind-like slatted strip, the slats of which can be bent against one another at their separation points; fastening devices on the guide elements; and at least one pivoting arm arranged below the Venetian blind-like slatted strip, supporting it in such a way that the strip rests at least partially on the pivoting arm, which is pivotable about a pivot axis arranged on a support fastened between the guide elements.The subsequently published German patent application DE 10 2017 211572 A1 discloses a storage arrangement for a vehicle, which forms a storage surface and is adjustable to a vehicle assembly, wherein a plurality of slat elements which are received in a retracted position on the vehicle assembly and are pivotable relative to one another, wherein the slat elements are movable along a direction of movement relative to the vehicle assembly in order to transfer the slat elements from the retracted position into an extended position in which the slat elements are supported on one another in such a way that the slat elements form the storage surface.The American patent US 885 364 A discloses a table adapted to move in the grooved key locking elements fixed to a flexible part and having a rearwardly extended flexible portion fixed to the rigid portion and consisting of a stop on the back of the elements engaging in the groove in the passage to limit the optimal movement of the tabs.

[0003] The object of the invention is to provide a storage device of a motor vehicle, with a package of slats which is movable between a storage position and a use position, wherein the slats extend transversely to the direction of movement and are movable relative to one another, which is easy to handle and / or can be produced inexpensively.

[0004] This object is achieved by a storage device having the features of patent claim 1. The slat pack can be fully or partially rolled up in the stowed position. The storage device is preferably arranged in the interior, in particular in the rear, of the motor vehicle. In this case, the storage device advantageously serves to form a table for a passenger in the interior of the motor vehicle. The articulated connection of the slats allows, on the one hand, a stable storage surface to be created in a simple manner. On the other hand, the articulated connection of the slats enables particularly space-saving storage of the slat pack in the stowed position, advantageously by rolling it up, in particular in a storage cassette. The slats are articulated to one another, for example at their end regions, by means of a connecting link.The connecting links create a stable, articulated connection between the slats in a simple manner. The storage cassette is particularly advantageously equipped with a push-push mechanism. In the used position, the slat stack forms a table in the interior of the vehicle. The slats are advantageously connected to each other in such a way that the slats can be rolled counterclockwise from the used position into the stored position, which corresponds to the non-use position.

[0005] The invention further relates to a motor vehicle with a storage device as described above. The storage device is preferably arranged in the rear of the motor vehicle.

[0006] Further advantages, features, and details of the invention will become apparent from the following description, in which various embodiments are described in detail with reference to the drawings. They show: Fig. 1 a perspective view of two slats; Fig. 2 a simplified cross-sectional view of the lamellae from Fig. 1 with a lamination; Fig. 3 a simplified cross-sectional view of the slats from Fig. 1 with a connecting link for the articulated connection of the slats; Fig. 4 a simplified cross-sectional view of the slats from Fig. 1 according to an embodiment with a knotting device for the articulated connection of the slats; Fig. 5 a simplified cross-sectional view of a plate pack with plates as shown in Fig. 1, and with a storage cassette; Fig. 6 a similar representation as in Fig. 5 with a supporting structure; Fig. 7 a simplified representation of a roll-in or roll-out mechanism with a push-push kinematics; Fig. 8 an embodiment of a support structure with two articulated arms; Fig. 9 a similar representation as in Fig. 6 with the supporting structure made of Fig. 8; Fig. 10 a simplified representation of a support structure according to an embodiment with two support rods; Fig. 11 a similar representation as in Fig. 6 with the supporting structure made of Fig. 10; Fig. 12 a perspective view of a storage device with a slat pack and a support structure in the use position; Fig. 13 a rear view of the storage device Fig. 12 with a supporting structure in an extended position; Fig. 14 the storage device with supporting structure made of Fig. 13 in side view; Fig. 15 the storage device Fig. 12 in a rear view with the support structure in a retracted position; and Fig. 16 the storage device with the supporting structure Fig. 15 in side view.

[0007] In Fig. Figure 1 shows two slats 1 and 2 in perspective. The slats 1 and 2 are Z-shaped. In cross-section, the slats 1 and 2 are designed in a similar manner to click panels.

[0008] An arrow 3 indicates Fig. 1 indicates that the slats 1, 2 can be folded on one side. In the opposite direction, i.e. in Fig. 1 counterclockwise, the slats 1, 2 are self-supporting.

[0009] Through a positive connection, the Fig. The slats 1, 2 shown in Figure 1 constitute a stable storage surface for a storage device, for example, designed as a table, in a motor vehicle interior. The ability of the slats 1, 2 to fold relative to one another on one side particularly advantageously enables a slat pack comprising a plurality of slats 1, 2 to be rolled up into a stowed position.

[0010] This provides the advantage that the slat pack requires only a small, rather compact installation space in the stowed position. The stable storage surface with the previously described self-supporting function of the slats 1, 2 is located in Fig. 1 below.

[0011] In Fig. 2, a line 5 indicates that the slats 1, 2 can be covered at the bottom with a material such as leather. Material 5 also serves particularly advantageously to connect the slats 1, 2 to one another in a hinge-like manner. When the storage device is installed, material 5 represents a table surface in the motor vehicle.

[0012] In a clockwise direction, a slat pack with a plurality of slats 1, 2, which are connected to each other via the material 5, can be rolled up in the storage position. In the use position, which is Fig. 2, the slats 1, 2 support themselves against each other.

[0013] In Fig. Figure 3 shows that the slats 1, 2 can also be connected to each other in an articulated manner by connecting links 10. The connecting link 10 connects the slats 1, 2 to each other at hinge points 8, 9.

[0014] In Fig. Figure 4 shows that the slats 1, 2 can also be connected to one another in an articulated manner using a tying device 14. The tying device 14 comprises two tying elements 15, 16, which are integrally connected to one another by a connecting element 17. The free ends of the tying elements 15, 16 are positively received in corresponding recesses of the slats 1, 2.

[0015] In Fig. Figure 5 shows a simplified cross-section of a plate pack 20 with three plates 1, 2. Three dots indicate that the plate pack 20 comprises a plurality of plates 1, 2.

[0016] An arrow 21 indicates that the slat pack 20 can be accommodated in its stowed position in a storage cassette 22 if the slat pack 20 is rolled up counterclockwise. Then, unlike previously described, the slats 1, 2 are designed, for example, to support themselves in the opposite direction, i.e., clockwise.

[0017] In Fig. Figure 6 shows that the slats 1, 2 can also be designed so that they do not support themselves in the clockwise direction. In this case, a support structure 26, also referred to as a substructure, is required to support the slat pack 20.

[0018] The support structure 26 comprises a support structure 28 which is attached to a support structure 25. To support the disk pack 20, the support structure 28 can, unlike in Fig. 6, are arranged directly below the disk pack 20. This then corresponds to the use position of the disk pack 20. In the stowed position, the disk pack 20 is, as shown by the arrow 21 in Fig. 6, rolled up into the storage cassette 22.

[0019] In Fig. 7 is a rolling-in or rolling-out mechanism for the slat pack (20 in the Fig. 5 and Fig. 6) with a push-push mechanism 36 in a storage cassette 32. The storage cassette 32 comprises a housing 33 with a cover 34. An actuating element 35 of the push-push mechanism or push-push kinematics 36 is arranged above the cover 34.

[0020] An actuating rod 38 extends from the actuating element 35, the free end of which engages an actuating wheel 39 of the push-push mechanism 36. The actuating wheel 39 is equipped, for example, with a toothing that interacts with the free end of the actuating element 35.

[0021] The push-push mechanism 36 further comprises two bolts 41, 42, which are Fig. 7 are movable back and forth in a horizontal direction. Movement of the bolts 41, 42 is initiated by a rotational movement of the actuating wheel 39. For this purpose, the actuating wheel 39 is rotatably mounted. The ends of the bolts 41, 42 facing away from the actuating wheel 39 interact with stop elements 43, 44 mounted on the inside of the housing 33.

[0022] An arrow 45 indicates Fig. 7 indicates that, for example, with a thumb, an actuating force is applied from above to the actuating element 35 of the push-push mechanism 36. An arrow 46 indicates that the actuating rod 38 then moves into Fig. 7 is moved downwards and the operating wheel 39 is turned clockwise.

[0023] Arrows 47 and 48 indicate that the clockwise rotation of the actuating wheel 39 causes the bolts 41, 42 to move toward each other, so that the opposite ends of the bolts 41, 42 are released from the stop elements 43, 44. The disk pack 20 can then be rolled in or out.

[0024] Rolling in and out is advantageously performed with spring support or motor drive. The bolts 41, 42, together with the stop elements 43, 44, provide a locking mechanism for the disc pack.

[0025] In Fig. 8 shows a support structure 53 that is hinged to a supporting structure 50. The support structure or substructure 53 comprises two articulated arms 51, 52, such as those used in awnings in the building services sector.

[0026] The articulated arms 51, 52 are advantageously attached to a bottom side of a Fig. 8 not shown storage cassette. The articulated arms 51, 52 are advantageously pressed outwards by spring devices, for example by spiral springs, as in Fig. 8 is indicated by arrows 54, 55.

[0027] In Fig. 9 it is indicated that the support structure 53 consists of Fig. 8 can be used to support a plate pack 20 with plates 1, 2. An arrow 57 indicates that the articulated arms (51, 52 in Fig. 8) to support the slat pack 20. An arrow 59 indicates that the slat pack 20 is rolled up into a storage cassette 58 in its use position.

[0028] In Fig. 10, a support structure 63 is indicated on a support structure 60, which comprises two support rods 61, 62. The support structure 63 is advantageously attached to the underside of a storage cassette 64.

[0029] In Fig. 11 shows that the support structure 63 serves to support a lamella pack 65 in the use position. The support structure 63 is attached to the support structure 60. The support rods 61, 62 are each equipped with a fixed hinge and a floating bearing, which is advantageously guided in a suitable guide rail.

[0030] In Fig. Figure 12 shows a perspective view of a storage device 66 with a slat pack 68 and a support structure 67. The slat pack 68 comprises a plurality of slats that are in their use position. In their stowed position, the slats of the slat pack 68 can be rolled into a storage cassette 69.

[0031] A support structure 70 is indicated below the lamella pack 68. The support structure 70 is also referred to as a substructure and serves to stabilize the lamella pack 68, particularly when the lamellae of the lamella pack 68 are not self-supporting.

[0032] In the Fig. 13 and Fig. 14, the support structure 67 is in an extended position. In the Fig. 15 and Fig. 16, the support structure 67 is in a retracted position.

[0033] In Fig. 13, a spring symbol 71 and a damper symbol 72 indicate that the storage device 66 with the storage cassette 69 can also be moved vertically, i.e. perpendicular to a direction of movement of the slats of the slat pack 68, over the support structure 67. In Fig. 12, the direction of movement of the slats of the slat pack 68 during rolling in and rolling out is indicated by a double arrow 56.

[0034] The support structure 67 comprises a joint 73. At the free end of the disk pack 68, a cover 74 is attached, which, as can be seen in Fig. 12, in the use position of the slat pack 68 is spaced from the storage cassette 69.

[0035] Arrows 75, 76 and 77 indicate Fig. 14 indicates which movements are possible through the joint 73 of the supporting structure 67 before the lamella pack 68 is unrolled.

[0036] In Fig.16, arrows 78 to 80 indicate how the slat pack 68 can be lowered into its stowed position together with the storage cassette 69. This allows, for example, a particularly space-saving accommodation of the storage device 66 in a center console of the motor vehicle.
