Description

The invention relates to a residence or a camping vehicle having a kitchen block, wherein an interior device consisting of at least one drawer element is arranged in the kitchen block.An internal device of the generic type for a vehicle has a drawer system with at least one drawer. This can be adjusted by means of a guide mechanism from a non-use position, in which the drawer is arranged in the interior of the inner device, in a first extension direction out of the inner device into a use position.It is the object of the invention to provide an improved vehicle with an interior device, preferably a kitchen block, which enables a safe and comfortable use thereof, in particular with minimized installation space for said interior device. In the sense of this invention, a kitchen block is understood to mean an item of furniture or a piece of furniture which is / is preferably used for storing items of furniture and / or kitchen utensils and / or foodstuffs.The object set is accordingly achieved by a vehicle having an interior device, wherein the interior device has a device part which can be adjusted relative to the same, wherein the device part is formed by a displaceable door surface. The displaceable door surface is mounted displaceably in the vehicle longitudinal direction (X direction).Preferably, the internal device has at least a first displaceable door surface and a second displaceable door surface. The inner device further comprises an upper part and at least one wall, preferably a first wall, a second wall, a third wall and a fourth wall. The first wall, the second wall, the third wall and the fourth wall delimit an inner region of the inner device in the vehicle longitudinal direction (X direction) and the vehicle transverse direction (Y direction). The upper part and a floor of the vehicle delimit the inner region in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction). The at least one wall can have the at least one displaceable door surface, such that the displaceable door surface forms part of the wall.The slidable door surface allows access to an interior region of the interior device. In a closed position, the displaceable door surface closes the inner region. In an open position, the slidable door panel enables access to an interior area. The slidable door surface is continuously adjustable between the closed position and the open position.The inner region of the inner device has at least one drawer, which is secured at one end by the displaceable door surface against movement along an opening direction. The opening direction of the drawer is preferably in the vehicle transverse direction (Y direction). The drawer can be opened manually, for example by a person, toward the inside of the vehicle or toward the outside of the vehicle. When the drawer is thus opened, access to a drawer interior is possible.The interior device with the displaceable door surface is arranged in the vehicle such that the interior device is arranged on a side wall of the vehicle and, as viewed in the transverse direction (Y direction) of the vehicle, at least partially next to a rear seat or a rear seat row of the vehicle consisting of two or more rear seats. This opens up the possibility of using the displaceable door surface and thus also the drawer from the vehicle interior, even in the seated position of a person, by the person.It is further advantageously provided that the internal device is arranged between a C and a D pillar of the vehicle when viewed in the vehicle longitudinal direction (X direction). Such a vehicle is generally a recreational vehicle or a bus, a minibus or a van. The vehicle manufacturing industry requires the provision of a vehicle, preferably a bus for camping purposes, which has a rear vehicle side door, more preferably a vehicle sliding door, on both sides. Such a vehicle is sometimes also referred to in the art as a "dual loader.". This on the one hand allows a comfortable entry and exit from both sides of the vehicle. On the other hand, there is also the advantageous possibility of handling drawers through the opened side door or sliding door from the outside of the vehicle. In addition, the drawer is prevented at the other end from moving along its opening direction by the vehicle side door.The drawer has a guide mechanism. The guide mechanism serves for the guided movement possibility of the drawer. The guide mechanism consists of at least one first guide rail and at least one second guide rail and at least one roller or ball latch. Preferably, two first guide rails extend along two opposite sides of the drawer. The two first guide rails are fixedly arranged on the drawer. Two second guide rails preferably extend along the inner device and are preferably arranged fixedly on the inner device. In each case a first guide rail is advantageously operatively connected to a respective second guide rail, such that the first guide rail and the second guide rail slide against one another, as a result of which the drawer is movable along the guide rail with respect to the inner device.Preferably, the guide mechanism comprises at least one roller or ball latch. The roller or ball latch holds the drawer in a middle position. The drawer is in the middle position when it does not protrude either inward or outward of the vehicle and the displaceable door surface can be transferred into the closed position.The drawer interior can contain at least one kitchen utensil and preferably have a sorting device. The kitchen utensil is preferably an aid for the preparation of foods and can be, for example, an eating cutlery or a cooking spoon or a spices. The sorting device can be a cutlery box and / or a condiment store and / or another storage for small parts.In a preferred embodiment, the drawer is a condiment drawer, having a first floor which delimits the drawer downward in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction), and a second floor which is arranged above the first floor in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction) and at a distance from the first floor. The drawer interior is thus divided by means of the second floor in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction). The first floor and the second floor are arranged on a drawer front and fastened to the latter by means of fastening elements and / or angle elements.The second base preferably has one or more first magnetic devices on its side facing the first base.In a first drawer part located between the first floor and the second floor, at least one container is arranged, preferably a seasoning container. Preferably, six or eight condiment containers are arranged in the first drawer part, of which in each case two condiment containers are arranged one behind the other in the vehicle longitudinal direction (X direction) and / or in two rows in each case three or four condiment containers are arranged next to one another in the vehicle transverse direction (Y direction). Six or eight condiment containers are preferably selected in their dimensions such that they spatially fill the first drawer part.The seasoning container preferably has a rectangular basic shape with side walls perpendicular thereto, wherein the corners can be rounded for production or aesthetic reasons. The seasoning container is preferably a transparent cuboid, having a rectangular base area and four side walls which are respectively connected to their edges, wherein side walls which adjoin one another are respectively connected to one another. The side wall preferably has a greater extent than each edge of the rectangular base. However, another shape is also conceivable.The seasoning container is preferably produced by injection molding and has transparent and / or milky and / or opaque appearance, as a result of which a content of the seasoning container is visible.The seasoning container may preferably be provided with a lid. The cover extends over the side walls and closes an interior of the seasoning container toward an open end. The cover can be made of wood and / or wood mimic and / or of a plastic and can be transparent and / or opaque and / or opaque. Preferably, the lid closes the seasoning container such that it positively engages the side walls.The spatial extent of the seasoning container with the lid is defined by a size of the first drawer part, wherein a maximum height of the seasoning container with the lid in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction) substantially corresponds to the distance between the first floor and the second floor, so that the seasoning container with the lid can be introduced into the first drawer part.The first base can have at least one separating wall on its side facing the second base. Preferably, a plurality of separating walls act together as a receptacle for each seasoning container, resulting in a defined storage space for the seasoning container.The lid can have at least one second magnetic device, which advantageously interacts with the first magnetic device and secures the lid and the seasoning container against falling out and / or slipping.The second floor can have a rough surface on a side facing away from the first floor and / or be provided with an anti-slip coating and / or be provided with a rubberized mat, whereby objects placed on the second floor are advantageously secured against slipping.On the second floor, a balustrade is preferably arranged on the side facing away from the first floor. The balustrade delimits the second drawer part at least in the vehicle longitudinal direction (X direction) forwards and backwards. Preferably, the balustrade delimits the second drawer part peripherally on three sides of the second floor.The second drawer part is provided with a boundary circumferentially by the drawer front and the balustrade. Objects placed on the second floor are thus effectively secured against dropping down.The internal device according to the invention can have a compartment which can be extended in the longitudinal direction (X direction) of the vehicle. The compartment is locked in a closed position by means of a lock and terminates flush with an outer surface of the internal device. The compartment may preferably be a refrigeration compartment and / or a freezer compartment.The compartment may be a compressor-powered or a power-powered or a gas-powered or an absorber cooling compartment and / or freezer compartment.The compartment can be opened by a compartment opener. A Bowden cable is arranged on the compartment opener, which interacts with the lock. Upon actuation of the compartment opener substantially in the vehicle vertical direction (Z direction) by a person, a pulling force acts on the Bowden cable. The Bowden cable interacts with a pawl of the lock and unlocks the latter when actuated, as a result of which a compartment interior is released.The compartment may include a compartment guide mechanism such that the compartment is guided along a defined axis. The shelf guide mechanism is composed of at least one first rail disposed on the shelf and at least one second rail disposed on the interior device. The first rail and the second rail are slidably operatively connected to each other, so that the compartment is guided in this manner.According to claim 1, the invention relates to an interior device for a vehicle having a drawer system with at least one drawer. This can be adjusted by means of a first guide mechanism from a non-use position, in which the drawer is arranged in the interior of the inner device, in a first extension direction out of the inner device into a first use position. According to the characterizing part of claim 1, the drawer system has a second guide mechanism for increasing its functionality, by means of which mechanism the drawer can be adjusted from its non-use position in a second extension direction which is in the opposite direction to the first extension direction to a second use position. The first use position and the second use position of the drawer are arranged on opposite sides of the inner device, as viewed in the pull-out directions, whereby different access options to the drawer can be provided to the user.In a technical implementation, the drawer system can have at least one holding means, in particular a ball snap, with which the drawer is secured in position in its non-use position. The drawer can be released from its position securing preferably by overpressing in one of the extension directions. This can be effected in a simple manner by manually adjusting the drawer in the direction of one of its use positions.With regard to increased operating convenience, the drawer can have drawer front sides accessible from the outside on the user side on both sides of the inner device, as viewed in the pull-out directions. With the aid of this, a manual push / pull operation of the drawer is made possible with a view to simple operation. This can preferably be increased if a handle for the user is formed on each of the two drawer end sides.Due to centrifugal forces acting on the drawer during vehicle cornering, there is the risk that the drawer unintentionally moves out of its non-use position. To protect against unintentional adjustment, the drawer system can have at least one movement stop that can be actuated by the user. This can be adjustable between a blocking position, in which a pulling-out movement of the drawer is blocked, and a release position, in which a pulling-out movement of the drawer is released.Preferably, viewed in the extension directions, a movement stop can be provided on each side of the inner device. The movement stop can be realized as a door. In this case, the drawer system can be arranged behind the closed door in a visually protected manner in the locked position.In view of the constricted interior conditions in the vehicle, it is preferred if the door is not designed as a pivotable door, but as a sliding door, which is adjustable between the blocking position and the release position at right angles to the extension directions. Depending on the available space, the sliding door can be adjustable in the vertical direction or in the horizontal direction. By way of example, the vertically adjustable sliding door can be adjusted between an upper blocking position and a lower release position.In a specific embodiment, the internal device is arranged in a vehicle interior. The interior device can partially cover a side door cutout of the vehicle on the vehicle body side with its drawer system. In such spatial circumstances, a drawer system outer side pointing outward in the vehicle transverse direction is accessible from the outside of the vehicle via the side door cutout of the vehicle. An even free, remaining occupant passage region is defined in this case between an interior device rear side facing toward the vehicle end and a rear frame part of the side door cutout.In the above configuration, the extension directions of the drawer may be aligned with the vehicle transverse direction. In this case, in the first position of use, the drawer can be adjusted inward in the first extension direction of the vehicle. In contrast, in the second position of use, the drawer can be adjusted outwards in the second extension direction and in particular project outwards through the side door cutout. When the vehicle is shut down, the drawer is therefore adjustable, on the one hand, from the outside of the vehicle through the side door cutout. On the other hand, the drawer is also adjustable from inside the vehicle. Moreover, both the drawer system outer side and the drawer system inner side can be closed or opened by means of an outer or inner sliding door. By way of example, the outer sliding door can be adjusted in the vertical direction between the blocking position and the release position, while the inner sliding door can be adjusted in a horizontal direction.An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the attached figures: FIGS. 1 to 5 each show different views, on the basis of which the structure and the mode of operation of the internal device according to the invention are illustrated.FIG. 1 shows an interior device 1 installed in a vehicle interior of a camping bus. The interior device 1 has a kitchen module 3 with an upper working surface 5. According to FIG. 1, the kitchen module 3 is arranged directly on a lateral door cutout 7 of the camping bus on the vehicle body side, which can be closed by a lateral sliding door 8 indicated only in FIG. 5.In FIG. 1, a rear region of the kitchen module 3 partially covers the side door cutout 7, as a result of which the free occupant passage region 9 usable by the occupant is correspondingly reduced. This is defined between an interior device rear side 11 pointing toward the vehicle and a rear vertical frame part of the side door cutout 7. In the rear region of the kitchen module 3, a drawer system 12 with a total of three drawers 13 arranged one above the other is integrated. The drawers 13 are all stored in their non-use position in the interior of the drawer system 12 in FIGS. 1, 2 and 5.A core of the invention consists in each of the drawers 13 being adjustable in the vehicle transverse direction y in a first extension direction y 1( FIG. 5 ) towards the inside of the vehicle and in a second extension direction y 2( FIG. 3 ) opposite thereto through the open side door cutout 7 towards the outside of the vehicle. By way of example, in FIG. 3, the lowermost drawer 13 is adjusted in the second extension direction y 2 outwards into its position of use which is external to the vehicle, while in FIG. 4, the two upper drawers 13 are likewise adjusted in the second extension direction y 2 outwards into their position of use which is external to the vehicle. The drawers 13 are therefore not only accessible from the inside of the vehicle, but also from the outside of the vehicle, when the vehicle is shut down and when the side door cutout 7 is open.With regard to ease of operation, the drawer system 12 has retaining means, in particular ball snaps, which are not shown and by means of which the drawers 13 are secured in position in their non-use position. The drawers 13 are arranged by way of example in their non-use position in FIGS. 1, 2 and 5. By over-pressing the respective drawer 13 in one of the extension directions y 1, y 2 the drawers 13 can be released from their position securing means, for example, by manual adjustment.As can be further seen from FIG. 1 or 3, the drawers 13, viewed in the vehicle transverse direction y, each have drawer end sides 15 which are accessible on the user side on both sides of the drawer system 12. Each of these drawer end faces 15 is provided with a handle 17 in order to enable simple manual pushing / pulling actuation.During driving, centrifugal forces can act on the drawers 13 when the vehicle is cornering. There is therefore a risk that the drawers 13 unintentionally adjust from their non-use position due to centrifugal force. In order to avoid such unintentional adjustment, the drawer system 12 has both an inner sliding door 19 (FIG. 1 ) and an outer sliding door 21 (FIG. 2 ).The inner sliding door 19 is horizontally adjustable between a release position and a blocking position on the inner side of the kitchen module 3 in a vehicle longitudinal direction x. In FIG. 1, the inner sliding door 19 is shown in the open state, i.e. in its release position. When the inner sliding door 19 is open, a pulling-out movement of the drawers 13 toward the inside of the vehicle is made possible. The outer sliding door 21 of the drawer system 12 is not horizontal on the outer side of the kitchen module 3, but is adjustable in the vertical direction z between a release position and a blocking position. FIG. 2 shows the outer sliding door 21 in its upper blocking position, in which a pulling-out movement of the drawers 13 towards the outside of the vehicle is prevented. In contrast, the outer sliding door 21 in FIGS. 3, 4 or 5 is in its lower release position, in which a pull-out movement toward the outside of the vehicle is made possible. When the sliding doors 19, 21 are closed, the drawer end sides 15 are each covered over a closed surface by the respective sliding door 19, 21.List of reference characters1 Interior device 3 kitchen module 5 work surface 7 side door cutout 8 sliding door 9 occupant passage region 11 interior device rear side 12 drawer system 13 drawer 15 drawer front side 17 handle 19 inner sliding door 21 outer sliding door y 1 first extension direction y 2 second extension direction
