BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONTechnical FieldThe present invention relates to a storage vehicle for a small automobile, such as an electrically powered scooter, which makes it possible to store and reuse a small automobile on which a passenger travels in an interior of a storage vehicle when the passenger exits the storage vehicle and gets around from the small automobile into the storage vehicle, and makes it possible to store the small automobile in a storage bay under a passenger seat to charge a battery of the small automobile.Description of Related ArtRecently, the number of users of electric scooters has been increasing greatly, and thus the services associated therewith also become a subject. In general, an electrically powered scooter typically includes two wheels and a stand frame on which a passenger can stand at a lower end portion, and a grip for operation at a front side, and has an advantage that each can easily use the electric scooter in a simplified operation method.Such a small motor vehicle has the advantage that a short distance can easily be covered with it before or after the use of a vehicle or public transportation means. However, this small mobile is currently mostly used by a common service apart from personal use, and after this small mobile is used in multiple places by a passenger, it is returned directly to the place where the use of the small mobile has been completed. In the present case, when the passenger uses a vehicle and a small mobile is required at an arrival location, or when there is no small mobile or there are many users at a location where the passenger wants to transfer to a small mobile, there is a disadvantage that no small mobile can be used.Therefore, in order to enable the passenger to share the small mobile and the vehicle, it is necessary to develop a storage vehicle for the small mobile which stores the small mobile in the storage vehicle after use or takes out the small mobile from the storage vehicle to enable the passenger to use the small mobile.Different designs of accommodation compartments in vehicles for accommodating small-sized motor vehicles are known, for example, from DE 10 2021 105 526 A1, DE 10 2018 221 384 A1, DE 10 2017 216 356 A1 or DE 10 2012 018 219 A1.U.S. Pat. No. 5,895,086 A further discloses a motor vehicle having a passenger compartment which has an outer door which provides access to a storage compartment arranged below the rear seat. The storage compartment extends substantially across the width of the vehicle. A drawer is mounted in the storage compartment. The drawer extends in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle substantially over the length of the storage compartment.US 2020 / 0 062 185 A1 describes a motor vehicle having a storage compartment, which motor vehicle has a passenger compartment, a set of rear wheels which are located behind the passenger compartment, a cargo space and a lockable integrated storage compartment which is located next to the passenger compartment, behind the rearmost seat of the motor vehicle and in front of the set of rear wheels. At least a portion of the storage compartment is located in front of a front wall of the cargo compartment. The storage compartment has at least one side wall enclosing an interior portion of the storage compartment and extending from a first side wall on a first side of the motor vehicle to a second side of the motor vehicle, a first opening to the storage compartment on the first side of the motor vehicle, and a first door on the first opening. The first door has a first tread member with a horizontal tread when opened.US 7 219 941 B1 provides a truck comprising a series cab, a series truck bed and a series truck frame, these components not matching to provide space between the cab and the truck bed for a closed storage assembly extending as a box laterally across the truck and attached to the frame. The box includes doors on both sides, and neither the box nor the doors protrude beyond the side walls of the cargo area. The box may include a pivotally mounted top.U.S. Pat. No. 7,086,689 B2 describes a combination step and storage device for engaging a motor vehicle body adjacent to a cargo space area and an additional storage compartment of the motor vehicle body, comprising at least one door element which is pivotably attached to the vehicle body adjacent to the cargo space area. The door member is movable between an open position and a closed position. The door member encloses the additional storage compartment in the closed position and an inner surface of the door member defines a step in the open position.Finally, U.S. Pat. No. 4,917,430 A also shows a converted small transporter and a method for providing the same, in which an access opening is provided in the side wall of the small transporter between the door and the rear wall of the driver's cab. In axial alignment with the access opening, a frame assembly is provided which fills all or part of the space between the side walls and the rear seat of the truck. The frame assembly defines a storage compartment therein that can receive various storage means such as hinged storage boxes, various drawers, tool boxes, a workbench, and the like, which are removable and slidably mounted in the frame assembly to allow easy access to the stored materials from outside the mini-transporter.The information disclosed in this Background of the Invention section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or an indication that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTIONIt is therefore an object of the present invention to further develop accommodation facilities in a storage vehicle for a small mobile such that a passenger is allowed to store the used small mobile in an interior of a storage vehicle and to reuse the small mobile when the passenger gets out of the storage vehicle and gets over from the small mobile to the storage vehicle, a storage space configured to store the small mobile is formed in the interior of the storage vehicle in which the passenger travels, a space under a seat is used, and the small mobile is stored in the storage space at a lower end portion of a passenger seat, thereby allowing a battery of the small mobile to be charged.The object is achieved by a storage vehicle having the features of claim 1.According to a first aspect of the invention, a storage vehicle for a small automobile includes a seat provided inside the storage vehicle and spaced upward from a floor of the storage vehicle to form a space under the seat; a storage space formed in the space under the seat opened to an outside of the storage vehicle through a portion of a side wall of the storage vehicle and configured to store the small automobile therein; a door provided in the opening portion of the storage slot; and an opening / closing area provided on a side of the door and configured to operate the door upward or downward to open or close the opening portion of the storage slot.
