[0001] Module assembly for a vehicle with at least one furniture module

[0002] Description

[0003] The proposed solution concerns a module assembly for a vehicle.

[0004] Modular assemblies for vehicles, which include at least one furniture module for a vehicle interior, are generally well known. For example, so-called camper modules for vehicles are known. These are permanently mounted on an interior surface of the vehicle in order to subsequently, i.e., retrofit the vehicle, provide an on-board toilet, at least parts of a kitchen unit, or a cupboard or drawer. A corresponding modular assembly can be used to retrofit a small van or a MPV with at least one furniture module.

[0005] Previously known solutions sometimes significantly limit the flexibility in arranging the furniture module. Both with regard to the arrangement of a furniture module when securing the module assembly in the vehicle interior and with regard to any adjustability of the furniture module, some of the previously known solutions are subject to significant limitations.

[0006] The proposed solution is intended to remedy this situation.

[0007] In particular, a modular assembly for a vehicle for the adjustable arrangement of at least one furniture module in an interior of the vehicle is proposed, which modular assembly comprises a displaceably mounted module carrier for the at least one furniture module. The at least one furniture module is adjustably mounted on the module carrier between a storage position and a use position. The module carrier itself is displaceably mounted on a base plate of the modular assembly via at least one guide rail. The base plate, in turn, can be used to secure the modular assembly to the vehicle.

[0008] With the proposed solution, in principle only the dimensions of the base plate need be adapted to the interior of the vehicle to be equipped with the modular assembly. If the base plate is fixed in the interior, the module carrier can also be movably mounted in the interior via the at least one guide rail provided thereon, on which in turn the at least one furniture module is adjustably mounted. The base plate can be removably fixed to a floor of the interior of the vehicle so that if necessary, i.e., by loosening the fixation of the base plate, the entire modular assembly can be removed from the vehicle, for example in order to (again) create space for an additional row of seats in the interior.

[0009] For example, it is provided that the module assembly with the base plate and the module carrier movably mounted thereon is dimensioned such that the module assembly finds space in the area of ​​a second row of seats in a vehicle in which the seats of the second row have been removed. The module assembly can therefore be dimensioned in particular such that the module assembly can be arranged entirely in an area in front of a third row of seats in the vehicle when all seats of a second row have been removed from the vehicle. A proposed module assembly thus offers the possibility of flexibly equipping the area of ​​a second row of seats in a vehicle with at least one furniture module and in doing so providing adjustment options for both the module carrier and the furniture module provided thereon.

[0010] In one embodiment, several (at least two) furniture modules are mounted on the slidably mounted module carrier, each adjustable between a storage position and a use position. At least two of the several furniture modules can be adjusted on the module carrier from their respective storage positions into a corresponding use position independently of one another and / or along different adjustment directions. The two or more furniture modules can also serve different functions. For example, a kitchen module, a toilet module, and / or a cooler module can be part of the module assembly, as can a drawer, cabinet, or box module for providing storage space.

[0011] In one embodiment, a first furniture module of the plurality of furniture modules is adjustable on the displaceably mounted module carrier from its stowed position along a first adjustment direction into a (first) use position. Another second furniture module of the plurality of furniture modules is in turn adjustable on the displaceably mounted module carrier from its stowed position along a second adjustment direction into a (second) use position, which extends at an angle in the range of 45° to 135°, in particular at an angle of 90° to the first adjustment direction. Such an embodiment thus includes, in particular, that a first furniture module is adjustable along a first adjustment axis, while a second furniture module is adjustable along a second adjustment axis, which extends at an angle in the range of 45° to 135°, in particular at an angle of substantially or exactly 90° to the first adjustment axis.For example, in this context, it can be provided that, based on the state of the module assembly installed in the vehicle, one furniture module is adjustable in the interior along a longitudinal axis of the vehicle, and the other furniture module is adjustable toward a longitudinal side of the vehicle, in the latter case possibly even laterally out of the vehicle. The module carrier, on which the multiple furniture modules are adjustably mounted, thus integrates the possibility of extending and retracting the furniture modules along different adjustment axes that run at an angle to one another.

[0012] Alternatively or additionally, at least one furniture module on the movably mounted module carrier can be adjusted from its stowed position along two opposing adjustment directions into two different use positions. With such a module assembly, a furniture module on the module carrier can therefore be extended from its stowed position into one or the other adjustment direction into a use position. For example, depending on the sliding position of the module carrier on the base plate, adjustment in one or the other adjustment direction can be advantageous for a user. The ability to extend a furniture module on the module carrier to both sides thus gives a user of the module assembly additional flexibility in designing their interior.

[0013] For example, the module carrier defines a cuboid-shaped body with a cavity in which the at least one furniture module is accommodated, in particular completely, in its stowed position. The cavity of the cuboid-shaped body can be dimensioned such that several furniture modules can be accommodated in the cavity in their respective stowed positions.

[0014] Alternatively or additionally, the module carrier can form a support surface on an upper side for supporting at least part of a mattress element. The upper side of the module carrier can therefore also be used in such an embodiment variant to position at least part of a mattress element thereon, so that a lying surface can be provided within the vehicle with the aid of the module assembly. In this context, it can be advantageous, for example, that a height of the module carrier, measured along the vertical and based on a properly installed state in the vehicle, does not exceed 70 cm, in particular 60 cm. In particular, it can be provided that the height of the module carrier is dimensioned such that the upper side of the module carrier is substantially (iewith a deviation of ±5 cm) in a plane in which a support surface extends which can be provided for the mattress element by at least one folded backrest of a third row of seats of the vehicle.

[0015] In one embodiment, the module carrier has at least one guide device on which

[0016] - at least one rolling element is rotatably mounted, which rolls along the guide rail when the module carrier is displaced, or at least one rolling element cage is provided, which is displaceably mounted on the guide rail and / or

[0017] - at least one guide element is provided which engages positively in a guide slot of the guide rail and is displaceable therein, and / or

[0018] - at least one locking element is provided which is adjustable between a first adjustment position and a second adjustment position and which, in the first adjustment position, locks the guide device of the module carrier in a position assumed with respect to the guide rail and, in the second adjustment position, allows a displacement of the guide device with respect to the guide rail.

[0019] The at least one guide rail on the base plate can thus be used in different ways and, if necessary, also in combination with a guide device of the module carrier.

[0020] For example, a rolling element, such as a track roller, or a rolling element cage can be guided in a guide slot of the guide rail, so that the guide rail provides physical guidance for the at least one rolling element or the rolling element cage of the module carrier. The guide slot of the guide rail preferably runs in a straight line, although this is not mandatory. The at least one rolling element cage is, for example, part of a precision rail guide that also includes the guide rail. Different rolling elements, such as balls, cylindrical rollers, or needles, can be provided in the at least one rolling element cage. The rolling element cage can be mounted immobilely or translationally displaceably on the guide device on the module carrier side, in order to allow the module carrier to be displaced along the guide rail.Alternatively or additionally, at least one guide element of the module carrier can engage positively with a guide slot of the guide rail. With the guide element engaging positively with the guide rail, the module carrier can be displaced along the guide slot, but at the same time, the guide element can enable the module carrier to be displaced transversely to the guide slot.

[0021] The direction of extension of the guide slot may be limited. The positive engagement of the guide element in the guide slot of the

[0022] Guide rail specifically limits the mobility of the module carrier transversely to the guide slot.

[0023] Alternatively or additionally, a locking element can be provided for locking the module carrier in a position predetermined by the guide rail, in order to be able to lock the module carrier to the base plate on the one hand and to be able to release this locking in a targeted manner on the other hand in order to move the module carrier along the base plate.

[0024] In one embodiment, the at least one rolling element or the rolling element cage of the guide device is partially accommodated in the guide slot of the guide rail in which at least one guide element of the guide device is displaceable and / or into which at least one locking element of the guide device projects, which is provided for locking the guide device of the module carrier in a position assumed relative to the guide rail. The guide slot thus provides a running surface for the at least one rolling element or rolling element cage of the guide device, while the guide slot also interacts with the at least one guide element and / or the at least one locking element of the guide device.

[0025] For example, the at least one locking element on the guide device of the module carrier is elastically preloaded into a first adjustment position (locking position), in which the guide device of the module carrier is locked in a position assumed relative to the guide rail via the at least one locking element. Consequently, the at least one locking element must be adjusted by a user against a restoring force in order to release the locking of the module carrier. Without any force acting on the locking element by the user, the at least one locking element is automatically adjusted to the first adjustment position in order to lock the module carrier or to keep it locked. For example, the one locking element for this purpose can comprise a spring bolt.A T-shaped guide slot can be particularly advantageous for achieving a resilient and thus load-bearing positive connection for (crash-proof) securing the module carrier to the base plate. A T-shaped cross-section, for example, facilitates a positive connection by engaging behind opposite edges of the guide slot.

[0026] The at least one guide element and / or the at least one locking element of the module carrier can engage positively in the guide slot and engage behind at least one edge of the guide slot, in particular a guide slot with a T-shaped cross-section. If the at least one guide element and / or the at least one locking element engages behind an edge of the guide slot (for example, with a respective head section), it can further be provided that the at least one guide element and / or the at least one locking element can only be disengaged from the guide slot at at least one hole provided on the guide slot.A head portion of the at least one guide element and / or of the at least one locking element engaging the guide slot can therefore only be disengaged from the guide slot at the hole by pulling it out along a spatial direction perpendicular to the direction of extension of the guide slot. The module carrier can thus be mounted on and removed from the guide rail via an appropriately dimensioned hole in the guide slot. However, if the respective element is not arranged directly at the hole, the module carrier is securely held on the guide rail in a form-fitting manner.

[0027] In a further development, several holes are provided on the guide rail in a hole pattern along the guide rail's extension direction. Adjacent holes in the hole pattern can be spaced at identical distances from one another.

[0028] To secure the connection between the module carrier and the guide rail, a locking element engaging in the guide slot and a guide element engaging in the guide slot can be arranged on the at least one guide device of the module carrier at a distance from one another that is not equal to an integer multiple of the hole spacing. In this way, a guide element fixed to the module carrier is never positioned at a hole in the hole grid if the locking element, which is also fixed to the module carrier, is positioned at a hole in the hole grid. For example, the locking element can be disengaged from the guide rail at a hole in the guide slot in order to release a locking device and to be able to slide the module carrier along the guide rail (manually or by external power).However, in the position of the module carrier in which the locking element can be disengaged from the guide rail by pulling it out of one hole in the guide slot, the guide element cannot be pulled out of the guide slot through another hole in the hole pattern. This prevents the module carrier from accidentally being separated from the guide rail if the user moves the module carrier on the base plate.

[0029] A further aspect of the proposed solution, which can be easily combined with the above-explained first aspect of the proposed solution, relates to a module assembly in which a module carrier adjustably supports at least one furniture module and which has a first front and a second front, with which the at least one furniture module on the module carrier can be adjusted from a storage position into different usage positions. Thus, the at least one furniture module on the module carrier can be adjusted from the storage position

[0030] - adjustable with the first front along a first adjustment direction into a first use position and

[0031] - adjustable with the second front along a second adjustment direction opposite to the first adjustment direction into a second use position different from the first use position.

[0032] The first and second fronts are in a rest position on the module carrier when the at least one furniture module is in its stowed position. The first front remains at least partially in the rest position when the at least one furniture module is adjusted to the second use position with the second front, while the second front remains at least partially in the rest position when the at least one furniture module is adjusted to the first use position with the first front.

[0033] Depending on the desired adjustment direction of the furniture module, one or the other front is moved. However, at least part of the other front remains in its rest position. This not only provides great flexibility in the adjustability of the furniture module, but also allows the furniture module to be extended on different sides and fitted with aesthetically pleasing fronts.

[0034] A module assembly according to the second aspect can also comprise a module carrier, which according to the first aspect is movably mounted on at least one guide rail of a base plate. In this way, the module carrier can be moved in a defined manner into different positions along the base plate, for example, when installed in a vehicle as intended. Depending on the position assumed on the base plate, the at least one furniture module can be extended with one or the other front in one or the other adjustment direction.

[0035] In one embodiment, the first front of the furniture module has a first visible panel, which in the rest position can be detachably connected, in particular locked, to the furniture module via at least one first connecting device, so that the first visible panel is coupled to the furniture module for adjustment along the first adjustment direction. Consequently, the first visible panel can be specifically coupled to the furniture module via the first connecting device, so that the first visible panel is adjusted with the furniture module. If, in contrast, the connection is released, the first visible panel remains in the rest position when the furniture module is adjusted in the opposite second adjustment direction.Likewise, the second front of the module assembly can have a second viewing panel which, in the rest position, can be detachably connected, in particular locked, to the furniture module via at least one second connecting device, so that the second viewing panel is coupled to the furniture module for adjustment into the second use position along the second adjustment direction and back (and in an unconnected state, the furniture module can be adjusted along the first adjustment direction without the second viewing panel).

[0036] The first or second connecting device can comprise at least one connecting element that can be adjusted between a locking position and a release position. The connecting element, when in its locking position, can be used to couple the associated first or second visible panel to the furniture module when in the stowed position for adjustment with the furniture module. When the connecting element is in its release position, the furniture module can be adjusted from its stowed position relative to the associated first or second visible panel. The visible panels can thus be selectively coupled to the furniture module via the first and second connecting devices of the module assembly, so that the furniture module with one or the other visible panel can be extended and retracted from the stowed position along one or the other adjustment direction relative to the module carrier.

[0037] In this context, it can also be provided that the at least one connecting element is provided on the furniture module, in particular on a support structure of the furniture module which is displaceably mounted on the module carrier, and the at least one connecting element

[0038] - for coupling with the furniture module in its locking position, engages behind the first or second visible panel through a through-opening provided on the associated first or second visible panel when the first or second visible panel is in the rest position, and

[0039] - in its release position, it can be guided through the through opening of the associated first or second visible panel when the furniture module with the second or first visible panel is adjusted from its storage position relative to the first or second visible panel.

[0040] If, for example, the first visible panel is coupled to the furniture module via at least one connecting element of the at least one first connecting device, the furniture module coupled to the first visible panel via the at least one first connecting device is moved along in the first adjustment direction when the first visible panel is adjusted in the first adjustment direction. Conversely, if the second visible panel is locked to the at least one connecting element of the at least one second connecting device, the furniture module then coupled to the second visible panel via the second connecting device is moved along in the second adjustment direction when the second visible panel is adjusted in the second adjustment direction.In contrast, the other (second or first) visible panel facing away remains in its respective rest position by moving one or more connecting elements of the other (second or first) connecting device(s) into the release position, so that the respective connecting element can be displaced through the associated through-opening on the visible panel side - inwards, i.e. in the direction of the cavity of the module carrier - without taking the other visible panel with it.

[0041] The at least one connecting element can, in principle, comprise, for example, a pivotable connecting lever. In one embodiment, such a connecting lever can be pivoted between the locking position and the release position by essentially or exactly 90° about a pivot axis.

[0042] In order to make it easier for a user to adjust and thus extend the furniture module from its storage position in one or the other direction of adjustment, and also to ensure that even the extended furniture module is supported on a surface, at least one roller can be rotatably mounted on the first visible panel and / or the second visible panel, by means of which the furniture module is supported on a surface during adjustment. Consequently, if the furniture module is adjusted with the respective visible panel above a surface, the furniture module remains supported on this surface via the at least one roller. In particular, the roller can be supported on and thus roll on a surface provided by a base plate of the module assembly, on which the module carrier is slidably mounted.

[0043] In one embodiment, the first front comprises a first visible panel and a first lower section panel. The second front likewise comprises a second visible panel and a second lower section panel. In contrast to the variant explained above, in which the visible panels can be optionally coupled to the adjustable furniture module, here the first and second visible panels are fixed to the furniture module (permanently and irremovably) and cannot be separated from it for adjustment into a use position. However, so that the first front and the second front can remain at least partially in the rest position, the first lower section panel is part of a first lower section of the module assembly and the second lower section panel is part of a second lower section of the module assembly.The furniture module can be coupled to the first and second lower parts in such a way that, when adjusted from its stowed position, the furniture module can be adjusted along the first adjustment direction together with the first lower part and relative to the second lower part. When adjusted from its stowed position, the furniture module can be adjusted along the second adjustment direction together with the second lower part and relative to the first lower part. One of the lower parts thus remains in an initial position on the module carrier that corresponds to the rest position when the furniture module is adjusted from its stowed position.

[0044] A first upper part of the furniture module comprising the first visible panel, in particular a section of the visible panel itself, can be configured to carry the first lower part along when the furniture module is adjusted from its stowed position to the first use position and from the first use position back to the stowed position. Alternatively or additionally, a second upper part of the furniture module comprising the second visible panel, in particular a section of the second visible panel itself, can be configured to carry the second lower part along when the furniture module is adjusted from its stowed position to the second use position and from the second use position back to the stowed position. A user therefore only has to grasp the first or second visible panel and pull on it to adjust the furniture module from the stowed position on the module carrier to the first or second use position.The lower section, which encompasses the respective lower section panel, is then automatically moved over the upper section, which encompasses the respective visible panel. When the furniture module is retracted, the respective lower section and lower section panel are also retracted.

[0045] To move the first lower part into the first use position, the first upper part can be releasably connected to the first lower part in a form-fitting manner. Alternatively or additionally, the second upper part can be releasably connected to the second lower part in a form-fitting manner. The upper part and lower part are thus connected to each other via at least one form-fitting connection in order to transfer an adjustment force from the upper part to the lower part, which is also to be adjusted, when extending into the respective first or second use position.

[0046] In one embodiment, it can be provided alternatively or additionally that, in order to move the first lower part from the first use position into the storage position, at least one section of the first upper part and one section of the first lower part interact in a magnetically attractive manner. Likewise, in order to move the second lower part from the second use position into the storage position, at least one section of the second upper part and one section of the second lower part can interact in a magnetically attractive manner. When the furniture module is retracted back into its storage position on the module carrier, the lower part that has been extended at the same time is taken along by the upper part enclosing the respective display panel via a magnetic connection and is likewise returned.A magnetic connection offers the advantage that any magnetic attraction between the upper part and the lower part can be overcome and thus the respective upper part can be separated from the corresponding lower part by simply moving the furniture module from its storage position to the respective other usage position. For example, the first upper part can be separated from the first lower part if the furniture module comprising the first and second upper parts is moved from its storage position to the second usage position and the first lower part is locked against adjustment in the second adjustment direction. Analogously, the magnetic attraction between the second upper part and the second lower part can be overcome and thus the second upper part can be separated from the second lower part by simply moving the furniture module to the first usage position and the second lower part is locked against adjustment in the first adjustment direction.To lock the first lower part against adjustment in the second adjustment direction beyond the rest position and / or to lock the second lower part against adjustment in the first adjustment direction beyond the rest position, an element of the module carrier can be provided against which the respective lower part abuts and beyond which the respective lower part cannot be adjusted in the respective adjustment direction. In one embodiment, this is an intermediate plate of the module carrier above which the furniture module is arranged in its stowed position.

[0047] In principle, the module carrier can comprise at least one securing element, via which the at least one furniture module is locked against movement from the stowed position in at least one of the first or second adjustment directions. Consequently, the furniture module can be secured to the module carrier against movement via one or more securing elements, for example, to prevent the furniture module from being undesirably extended from the module carrier while the vehicle carrying the module assembly is traveling.

[0048] Part of the proposed solution is also a vehicle with an interior in which at least one embodiment of a proposed module assembly is arranged.

[0049] The attached figures illustrate possible embodiments of the proposed solution.

[0050] Here we show:

[0080] Design variant of the module assembly in which the furniture module extended to a second side comprises two visible panels fixed thereto and is coupled and extended to a second lower part;

[0081] Figure 17B, in a view corresponding to Figure 14B, shows the module assembly of Figure 17A with the furniture module extended to the other side, wherein the furniture module here has taken a first lower part with it and the second lower part is separated from the furniture module.

[0082] Figure 1 shows a plan view of a vehicle F with a view into its interior I. In the interior I, a driver's seat S1 and a driver's seat S2 are visible, as well as an interior area located behind the driver's seat S1 and the front passenger seat S2, relative to a vehicle's longitudinal axis (X-axis). On this interior area, between a first row of seats formed by the driver's seat S1 and the front passenger seat S2 and a rear row of seats S3, a module assembly 1 with several furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C is provided. Behind the rear row of seats S3, there is also a rear loading space in which, in the present case, a (folded or retracted) mattress element M is arranged.

[0083] The module assembly 1 with the multiple furniture modules 3A, 3B and 3C allows the flexible arrangement of modules in the interior I of the vehicle F, which are useful, for example, for a camping trip. The entire module assembly 1 can be removed relatively easily from the vehicle F. In the present case, the module assembly 1 has a base plate 10, by means of which the module assembly 1 is releasably fixed to a floor of the interior I. To fix the base plate 10, for example, fastening openings and / or fastening rails for an additional (second) row of seats already provided in the vehicle F by the manufacturer can be used. Two guide rails 111, 112 of a guide system 11, which run parallel to one another, are provided on the base plate 10.A module carrier 2 is movably mounted on these guide rails 11 1 and 1 12, so that the module carrier 2 is movable along the vehicle's longitudinal axis when the module assembly 1 is installed as intended.

[0084] In this case, the module carrier 2 defines a cuboid-shaped body with a supporting frame, in which the furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C can be completely accommodated in a stowed position. Thus, in their respective stowed positions, the furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C are located entirely within a cavity 200 defined by the module carrier 2 (see, for example, Figure 14A). In the stowed position, the furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C are also covered on an upper side of the module carrier 2 by a continuous cover plate 20 of the module carrier 2.

[0085] The furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C provide different functions in this case. For example, a cooler module 3A, a toilet module 3B, and a kitchen module 3C are provided. A furniture module 3A, 3B, 3C can also alternatively or additionally have a drawer or one or more drawers. The three furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C are each mounted on the module carrier 2 so that they can be adjusted between their storage position and one or more usage positions, for example, in a drawer-like manner. This allows the furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C to be extended differently, in particular depending on the position of the module carrier 2 on the guide system 11.

[0086] For example, according to Figure 2, the module carrier 2 can be moved into a maximum possible frontmost first position on the base plate 10, so that there is sufficient space between the module carrier 2 and the rear row of seats S3 for extending a module - in Figure 2, for example, the cool box module 3A - towards the rear of the vehicle F and thus towards the rear row of seats S3.

[0087] In Figure 3, in the frontmost first position of the module carrier 2, the toilet module 3B is extended towards the rear of the vehicle F. As shown in Figure 4, it is also possible to adjust the module carrier 2 to a maximum possible rearward, second position towards the row of seats S3, so that there is sufficient space between the front row of seats with the driver's seat S1 and the passenger seat S2 and the module carrier 2 for the furniture modules 3A and 3B to be extended forward in an opposite adjustment direction. By way of example, in Figure 4, the toilet module 3B is extended out of the cavity 200 of the module carrier 2 towards the front of the vehicle. In Figure 4 (as well as in Figure 3), a toilet seat on the toilet module 3B is rotated by 90° to make it easier for a user to sit on the toilet module 3B.In principle, the cover plate 20 of the module carrier 2, particularly in the position shown in Figure 4, can also form a table and / or leg rest for an occupant sitting on one of the (three) seats of the rear row of seats S3.

[0088] In the second position of the module carrier 2, displaced toward the rear of the vehicle F, a support surface for the mattress element M is provided via the cover plate 20 on the upper side of the module carrier 2. The module carrier 2 is thus dimensioned such that the upper side provided by the cover plate 20 is essentially flush with a support surface provided by the folded backrests of the rear seat row S3. The mattress element 3, folded out or extended forward, can thus rest and be supported flat on the folded backrests of the seats of the rear seat row S3 and the cover plate 20 in order to provide a lying surface in the interior I.

[0089] In Figure 6, the module carrier 2 has been moved to a central, third position on the base plate 10. The space thus provided between the module carrier 2 under the rear row of seats S3 is sufficient to fully extend one of the furniture modules 3A or 3B along the module carrier 2 toward the rear of the vehicle F and thus toward the rear row of seats S3. Furthermore, even in this position of the module carrier 2, a table and / or leg rest can be formed via the cover plate 22, in this case particularly for the rearward-facing driver and front passenger seats S1, S2. At the same time, one long side of the module carrier 2, in the central, third position shown, lies opposite a side door T of the vehicle F such that the kitchen module 3C on this side of the module carrier 2 can be extended out of the interior I of the vehicle F along a transverse direction y—when the side door T is open.The kitchen module 3C can be extended laterally via corresponding pull-out rails on the module carrier 2 and thus along an adjustment direction that runs perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal axis, along which the other two furniture modules 3A and 3B on the module carrier 2 can be extended.

[0090] In one variant, one or more optionally adjustable support elements are provided on an underside of the kitchen module 3C in order to support the extended kitchen module 13 on a surface located outside the vehicle F.

[0091] As shown by the combination of Figures 7, 8A, 8B and 8C, the base plate 10 can be fixed in this case by way of example via a plurality of fastening openings 101 to a floor of the interior I of the vehicle F and carries the guide system 11 with the guide rails 111 and 112 for the displaceable mounting of the module carrier 2.

[0092] To guide the module carrier 2 on the guide rails 111 and 112, a plurality of guide devices 21 and 22 are provided on the module carrier 2. Each guide device 21 or 22 is assigned to one of the guide rails 111, 112. Each guide device 21, 22 has at least one guide element 2A, 2B with a T-shaped cross section, which is slidably guided by a widened head section in a guide slot 11.1 of a guide rail 111 or 112 with a T-shaped cross section. The respective guide slot 11.2 of a guide rail 111 or 112 is therefore shaped like a T-slot. In addition, a locking element in the form of a spring bolt 220 is provided on at least one guide device 22. This spring bolt 220 is held in a bearing part 221 of the guide device 22 in a translationally adjustable manner and is elastically preloaded into a locking position.In the locking position, the spring bolt 220 engages positively with the guide slot 11.1 of the associated guide rail 112 and thereby counteracts any displacement of the module carrier 2 along the guide rail 112. Consequently, if a user wishes to move the module carrier 2 along the base plate 11, the spring bolt 220 must be actuated and pulled out of the guide slot 11.1 against the restoring force.

[0093] In order to be able to lock the module carrier 2 in several different, predetermined (locking) positions along the guide rails 111, 112, a hole pattern 11.2 is provided on each guide rail 111, 112. This hole pattern 11.2 has several holes arranged one behind the other along an extension axis of the respective guide rail 111 or 112, through which, for mounting the module carrier 2 to the guide system 11, a head section of the respective T-shaped guide element 2A or 2B can be inserted into the associated guide slot 11.1. In addition, a spring bolt 220 can engage in a form-fitting manner in the holes of the hole pattern 11.2 in order to lock the module carrier 2. Via the holes of the hole pattern 11 .2, in interaction with one or more spring bolts 220, certain positions of the module carrier 2 along the base plate 10 are specified, at each of which positions the module carrier 2 can be locked.

[0094] In order to prevent the module carrier 2 from accidentally becoming completely disengaged from the guide system 11 when the module carrier 2 is moved along the guide rails 111, 112, a distance between a spring bolt 220 and a guide element 2A, 2B for the same guide rail 111, 112 is selected such that this distance does not correspond to a multiple of a hole spacing d between two adjacent holes in the hole pattern 11.2. As shown in Figure 10, this ensures that a guide element 2A or 2B is always located between two adjacent holes when the spring bolt 220 positively engages a hole in the same guide rail 111, 112 and can be pulled out thereof.In a position of the spring bolt 220 in which the spring bolt 220 can be disengaged from a guide rail 112 or 112, it is therefore always ensured that a head section of the T-shaped guide element 2A or 2B on the same guide rail 111112 maintains a positive connection to the respective guide rail 111 or 112. The respective T-shaped guide element 2A or 2B is located in an area on the guide rail 111, 112 with respect to the hole pattern 112, in which the head section engages behind edges of the guide slot 11.1, as can also be seen in the enlarged view of Figure 9B.

[0095] In order to facilitate the displacement of the module carrier 2 along the guide rails 11 1 , 112 , at least one (running) roller 23 can be rotatably mounted on each of the guide devices 21 and 22 of the module carrier 2, which roller can roll on the base plate 10. In order to avoid having to provide an additional running surface on the base plate 10 away from the guide rails 11 1 , 112 , a bottom surface of the guide slot 11.1 forms a running surface for one or more rollers 23 of the module carrier 2. According to the sectional view in Figure 9A, a roller 23 rotatably mounted on a guide device 21 or 22 of the module carrier 2 projects into a guide slot 11.1 of a guide rail 11 1 or 112 and rolls therein on a running surface when the module carrier 2 is to be displaced along the base plate 10. Via the positive engagement of a guide element 2A, 2B in a guide slot 11.1 also ensures that a roller 23 cannot easily jump out of the associated guide rail 1 11 or 1 12, in particular not when a locking of the module carrier 2 is released via the one or more spring bolts 220.

[0096] In a modified embodiment, one or more rolling element cages are provided on the module carrier-side guide devices 21, 22, which are guided in a guide slot 11.1 of the respectively assigned guide rail 111, 112. In this way, a precision rail guide can be provided for the displaceable mounting of the module carrier 2 on the base plate 10, wherein a positive-locking arrangement of the rolling element cage in a guide rail 111, 112 ensures that the module carrier 2 is securely held on the respective guide rail 111, 112. In principle, different rolling elements can be provided in the at least one rolling element cage, such as balls, cylindrical rollers or needles, wherein a rolling element cage is mounted immovably or translationally displaceably on the module carrier-side guide device 21, 22.

[0097] Even when using a precision rail guide for the movable mounting of the module carrier 2 on the base plate 10, the provision of a hole pattern 11.2 on the guide rails 111, 112 can be advantageous. This can also be used to lock the module carrier 2, in particular via one or more spring bolts 220.

[0098] In one variant, the holes of a hole pattern 11.2 are also designed to secure additional elements to the respective guide rail 11.1, 11.2. For example, an additional fixing element for securing an object in the interior space I can be fixed to one or more holes of a hole pattern 11.2. Thus, the fixing element can be part of a tensioning or transport belt, in particular a tensioning or transport belt that is fixed to the guide rail 11.1, 11.2 in front of, behind, or in the area of ​​the module assembly 1.

[0099] The top view of Figure 11A and the side view of Figure 11B show an individual view of the module carrier 2 with the furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C mounted thereon in an extendable manner. As illustrated in the supplementary views of Figures 12 and 13, the furniture modules 3A and 3B on the module carrier 2 can each be adjusted from a fully retracted storage position in two opposite adjustment directions V1 and V2 into two different (first and second) use positions. Furthermore, one furniture module, here the kitchen module 3C, can be extended laterally from its storage position into a third use position perpendicular to these two adjustment directions V1 and V2 along a third adjustment direction V3. In this way, the module carrier 2 enables flexible use of the different furniture modules 3A, 3B, and 3C, if necessary, regardless of whether the module carrier 2 is slidably attached to the base plate 10.

[0100] Figures 14A to 16B and 17A to 17B illustrate two different embodiments for extending a furniture module 3A or 3B on the module carrier 2 along the two mutually opposite adjustment directions V1 and V2.

[0101] In the embodiment shown in Figures 14A-14B, 15A-15B, and 16A-16B, a respective furniture module 3A or 3B can be extended from the stowed position using one of two viewing panels 30 or 31 in one or the other adjustment direction V1 or V2. The respective viewing panel 30, 31 forms, in this example, a continuous front on the respective side of the module carrier 2, at which the respective furniture module 3A or 3B can be extended.

[0102] In order to selectively extend the furniture module 3A or 3B with one or the other visible panel 30, 31 on one side or the other, the visible panels 30 and 31 can be connected to and separated from the furniture module 3A or 3B via first and second connecting devices 330, 331. For example, in Figure 14A, a second visible panel 31 (shown on the right) is connected via second connecting devices 331 to the furniture module 3A or 3B pulled out from the stowed position along a second adjustment direction V2. The connection between the furniture module 3A or 3B and a first visible panel 30 (shown on the left) via first connecting devices 330 was previously released for this purpose, so that the first visible panel 30 remains in a rest position on the module carrier 2.

[0103] As can be seen from the front and rear views of Figures 15A and 15B, a module-side connecting device 330 or 331 for the optional connection to the furniture module 3A, 3B each has a connecting lever 3300 or 3310 that can be pivoted through 90°. This connecting lever 3300 or 3310 can, in a first adjustment position (release position), extend through a through-opening 300 or 310 on the respective viewing panel 30 or 31. The connecting lever 3300 or 3310 extending through the respective through-opening 300, 310 can then be rotated through 90° into a second adjustment position (locking position), so that the respective viewing panel 30 or 31 is engaged behind via the connecting lever 3300 or 3310 and locked to the furniture module 3A or 3B.If a handle opening G on the respective display panel 30 or 31 is now pulled, the furniture module 3A, 3B is taken along via the connecting lever 3300 or 3310 which engages behind the display panel 30, 31 at the through opening 300 or 310.

[0104] In order to be able to manually pull the respective furniture module 3A, 3B out of the module carrier 2 as smoothly as possible and at the same time to support it sufficiently so that, for example, a person can sit on the respective furniture module 3A or 3B, the respective furniture module 3A or 3B is held displaceably on the module carrier 2 both via double pull-out rails 26 and via additional pull-out rails 25.1, 25.2. In this case, the module carrier 20 has an intermediate plate 24 in a lower third of the cavity 200, to which a fixed part of the double pull-out rails 26 is fixed. A part that is displaceably mounted on both sides on a double pull-out rail 26 is fixed to a support structure 33 of the furniture module 3A or 3B that is equipped with a support plate.

[0105] A pair of pull-out rails 25.1, 25.2 is in turn connected to each display panel 30 or 31. In this case, the two pairs of pull-out rails 25.1, 25.2 are each arranged completely beneath the intermediate panel 24 when the furniture module 3A or 3B is in its stowed position and thus both display panels 30, 31 are in their respective rest positions.

[0106] If the furniture module 3A or 3B is to be extended with its respective front by pulling on a handle opening G of the second viewing panel 31 along the second adjustment direction V2, the furniture module 3A, 3B is coupled in this case via several - in this case two - connecting levers 3310 of the second connecting devices 310, which are pivoted into their locking positions. The furniture module 3A or 3B is extended via the double extension rails 26, which can be extended in the second adjustment direction V2, while the viewing panel 31 can be extended synchronously therewith via the additionally provided (second) extension rails 25.2. For additional support on the base plate 10 during extension, the second viewing panel 31 has at least a pair of rotatably mounted rollers 313, which can roll along the base plate 10.

[0107] If, on the other hand, the other, first visible panel 30 is to be extended with the furniture module 3A or 3B, as shown in Figure 14B, in the stowed position of the furniture module 3A or 3B, the connecting levers 3310 of the second connecting devices 310 are adjusted to a release position in which the respective connecting lever 3310 can be guided through a through opening 310 on the second visible panel 31. The connecting levers 3300 of the first connecting devices 330 on the other, first visible panel 30 are, on the other hand, adjusted to their locking position, so that the first visible panel 30 is connected to the furniture module 3A or 3B. In this way, the furniture module 3A, 3B can then be extended out of the cavity 200 of the module carrier 2 along the first adjustment direction V1 by pulling on the handle opening G of the first visible panel 30. The double extension rails 26 are extended along the first adjustment direction V1.At the same time, the first display panel 30 can be supported on the base plate 10 via rollers 303 and can be moved along it by extending the other, first extension rails 25.1 along the first adjustment direction V1. The second display panel 31, which is no longer coupled to the furniture module 3A or 3B, remains in the rest position. Likewise, the second extension rails 25.1 remain completely below the intermediate panel 24.

[0108] To prevent a viewing panel 30 or 31 remaining in the rest position from being inadvertently extended along an adjustment direction V1 or V2, particularly independently of a furniture module 3A or 3B, when the furniture module 3A, 3B is being adjusted in the other, opposite adjustment direction V2, V1, securing elements are provided on the module carrier 2 on each side (on which a furniture module 3A or 3B can be extended), in this case in the form of pivotable securing levers 40 or 41. If a respective securing lever 40 or 41 is turned into a locked position, an associated viewing panel 30 or 31 cannot be extended. If both securing levers 40, 41 are moved to their locked positions in the stowed position of the furniture module 3A or 3B, the furniture module 3A or 3B is secured in its stowed position.An unintentional extension of the furniture module 3A, 3B on the module carrier 2, for example while the vehicle F is moving, is thus reliably prevented.

[0109] In the embodiment of Figures 17A and 17B, in contrast to the embodiment of Figures 14A to 16B, only part of a front remains in a rest position when the furniture module 3A or 3B is extended on the other side. In the embodiment of Figures 17A and 17B, the viewing panels 30 and 31 provided on the two opposite sides in a stowed position of the furniture module 3A or 3B are firmly connected to the support structure 33 of the furniture module 3A or 3B. Consequently, both viewing panels 30 and 31 are each moved when the furniture module 3A or 3B is adjusted along the first adjustment direction V1 or along the second adjustment direction V2 relative to the module carrier 2.

[0110] In the embodiment of Figures 17A and 17B, however, the two fronts of the module assembly 1 for a furniture module 3A or 3B in its stowed position are constructed in several parts. In addition to a first or second visible panel 30 or 31, each front is formed by a first or second lower part plate 503 or 513. A lower part plate 503 or 513 is in each case part of a lower part 50 or 51 that can be pulled out on the module carrier 2. Depending on the adjustment direction V1 or V2, an upper part of the furniture module 3A or 3B having the visible panel 30 or 31 takes with it one or the other lower part 50, 51 with the respective lower part plate 503, 513. For example, the first visible panel 30 is extended and retracted together with a first lower part plate 503 and forms a first front for the furniture module 3A, 3B. On the other side, the second viewing panel 31 with a second lower panel 513 can be extended and retracted for a second front.

[0111] Analogous to the embodiment variant of Figures 14A to 16B, in the embodiment variant of Figures 17A and 17B, the furniture module 3A, 3B with its supporting structure 33 is again mounted on the intermediate plate 24 with double extension rails 26, which can be adjusted in both adjustment directions V1 and V2. Below the intermediate plate 24, the first and second lower parts 50 and 51 can be extended and retracted in the opposite adjustment directions V1 and V2 via a pair of extension rails 25.1 or 25.2 on the module carrier 2. Here, too, the lower parts 50, 51 are each supported on the base plate 10 via rollers 303 or 313. In addition, a display panel 30 or 31 can be supported on the respective associated lower part plate 503 or 513.

[0112] When the furniture module 3A or 3B is extended from its stowed position into one or the other use position, the respective lower part 503 or 513 is carried along via at least one positive connection between the upper part having the respective visible panel 30 or 31 and the respective lower part 50 or 51. A magnetic connection between the upper and lower parts is provided for the joint retraction from a use position into the stowed position. For example, in Figure 17A, the first lower part 50 with the first lower part panel 503 remains in a rest position when the furniture module 3A, 3B was extended into a second use position by pulling on the second visible panel 31 along the second adjustment direction V2 and took the second lower part 51 with it.In this case, for example, a vertically projecting driver section of the second lower part plate 513 engages positively in a recess on a lower edge of the second visible plate 31.

[0113] If the furniture module 3A, 3B is pushed from the second use position shown in Figure 17A back into the stowed position, the second lower part 51 is also carried along on the way back to the stowed position. However, there is no positive connection between the second upper and lower parts provided for this purpose, but rather a magnetic one. Thus, elements that interact magnetically with one another are provided on the second upper and lower parts. For example, a magnetic element 5B is provided on the upwardly projecting driver section of the second lower part plate 513. This magnetic element 5B interacts with a metallic section on the second visible panel 31, so that a magnetic connection between the second upper and lower parts exists and remains when the furniture module 3A, 3B is pushed back into its stowed position by a user.

[0114] The magnetic connection between the second upper and lower parts can in turn be released, or the corresponding magnetic force can be overcome, when the furniture module 3A, 3B is to be extended from its stowed position into the opposite first adjustment direction V1. Thus, in the stowed position of the furniture module 3A or 3B, both lower parts 50 or 51 are in a rest position in which, in the illustrated embodiment, the sub-parts 50, 51 each rest against the intermediate plate 24 on the module support side and are thereby prevented from being adjusted through the cavity 200. Consequently, the first lower part 50 cannot be adjusted from its rest position into the second adjustment direction V2, and the second lower part 51 cannot be adjusted from its rest position into the first adjustment direction V1.

[0115] If, for example, according to Figure 17B, the furniture module 3A, 3B is extended along the first adjustment direction V1 by pulling on the first visible panel 30, the first upper part comprising the first visible panel 30 not only takes with it the first lower part 50 with the first lower part plate 503. Rather, the blocking of the second support 51 against adjustment in the first adjustment direction V1 by the intermediate plate 24 also leads to a separation of the magnetic connection between the second upper part comprising the second visible panel 31 and the second lower part 51.

[0116] The positive and magnetic coupling between the upper and lower parts, depending on the adjustment direction of the furniture module 3A or 3B when extending into a use position on the one hand and when retracting into the storage position on the other, eliminates the need for additional connecting elements for coupling the visible panels 30 and 31 to the furniture module 3A or 3B. Furthermore, only a single locking lever 40 or 41 per side may be required to secure the furniture module 3A or 3B in its storage position on the module carrier 2.
