Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle interior system including an ornament and a control unit. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, a seat equipped with a garbage bag bracket capable of suspending a garbage bag has been known (see Patent Document 1). In this technology, the garbage bag bracket is movable between a storage position where it is stored in the armrest and a use position where it is pulled out from the tip of the armrest. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 6-45851 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in the conventional technology, when a passenger wants to hang a garbage bag on the garbage bag bracket, the passenger must manually pull the garbage bag bracket out to the use position, which is time-consuming.

[0005] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle interior system that can reduce the effort required to prepare a structure on which items can be hung. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the vehicle interior system of the present invention includes an ornament provided on a seat and a control unit. The upholstery is disposed at a position that avoids the seating surface of the seat, and has a movable body that is moved by an actuator. The movable body is deformable between a bent holding shape and a shape that is bent to a lesser degree than the holding shape. The holding shape is a shape that allows an object to be hung. When a predetermined condition is satisfied, the control unit moves the actuator to cause the movable body to assume the holding shape.

[0007] By configuring the control unit to operate the actuator to put the movable body into a holding shape, the occupant does not need to manually put the movable body into a holding shape, thereby reducing the effort required to prepare the movable body into a holding shape.

[0008] The ornament may further comprise a weight detection unit that detects the weight of an object held by the movable body, and the control unit may move the movable body based on the weight obtained from the weight detection unit.

[0009] The control unit may also increase the degree of bending of the movable body in the held shape as the weight acquired from the weight detection unit increases.

[0010] By configuring the movable body in the holding shape to bend more as the weight obtained from the weight detection unit increases, it is possible to prevent a heavy object from falling off the movable body.

[0011] The decorative item may further include lighting, and the control unit may control the lighting based on the weight obtained from the weight detection unit.

[0012] The vehicle may further include an acceleration detection unit that detects acceleration applied to the vehicle, and when the movable body is in the holding shape, the control unit may move the movable body based on the acceleration obtained from the acceleration detection unit.

[0013] Furthermore, when the direction of acceleration acquired from the acceleration detection unit is the vertical direction, the control unit may move the movable body in the vertical direction.

[0014] The vehicle interior system may further include a recognition unit that recognizes the occupant's belongings, and the movable body may be deformable into a first holding shape in which a first item can be hung and a second holding shape in which a second item can be hung, and the control unit may change the movable body to the first holding shape when it determines that the belongings recognized by the recognition unit are the first item, and change the movable body to the second holding shape when it determines that the belongings recognized by the recognition unit are the second item.

[0015] By configuring the control unit to change the movable body to a first holding shape when it determines that the personal item recognized by the recognition unit is a first item, and to change the movable body to a second holding shape when it determines that the personal item recognized by the recognition unit is a second item, the effort required by the occupant can be reduced.

[0016] The vehicle interior system may further include an object information acquisition unit that acquires object information regarding an object hung on the movable body, and a display unit that displays a character, and the control unit may move the character according to the object information acquired from the object information acquisition unit.

[0017] By configuring the character to move in accordance with the object information acquired from the object information acquisition unit, the entertainment value can be increased.

[0018] The seat has an airbag and a cover having a tear line that breaks when the airbag is deployed, and the decorative item does not need to overlap the tear line when viewed from the direction in which the airbag deploys.

[0019] By configuring the decorative element so that it does not overlap the tear line when viewed from the direction in which the airbag is deployed, it is possible to prevent the airbag from interfering with the decorative element when the airbag is deployed.

[0020] The control unit may also operate the actuator to bring the movable body into contact with an occupant seated in the seat, on the condition that no object is hung on the movable body.

[0021] The entertainment value can be increased by configuring the process to bring the movable body into contact with the occupant seated in the seat. Also, by setting the condition for the process to bring the movable body into contact with the occupant as being that no object is hung on the movable body, it is possible to prevent the object from falling off the movable body when the movable body moves with an object hung on it. [Effects of the Invention]

[0022] According to the present invention, the control unit is configured to move the actuator to put the movable body into a holding shape, thereby eliminating the need for the occupant to manually put the movable body into a holding shape, thereby reducing the effort required to prepare the movable body into a holding shape.

[0023] Furthermore, by configuring the movable body in the holding shape to bend more as the weight obtained from the weight detection unit increases, it is possible to prevent a heavy object from falling off the movable body.

[0024] In addition, if the control unit determines that the personal item recognized by the recognition unit is the first item, it sets the movable body to a first holding shape, and if the control unit determines that the personal item recognized by the recognition unit is the second item, it sets the movable body to a second holding shape, thereby reducing the effort required of the occupant.

[0025] Furthermore, the entertainment value can be increased by configuring the character to move in accordance with the object information acquired from the object information acquisition unit.

[0026] Furthermore, by configuring the decorative element so that it does not overlap the tear line when viewed from the direction in which the airbag is deployed, it is possible to prevent the airbag from interfering with the decorative element when the airbag is deployed.

[0027] Furthermore, by configuring the seat to make the movable body come into contact with the occupant, the entertainment value can be increased. Also, by setting the condition for making the movable body come into contact with the occupant as being that no object is hung on the movable body, it is possible to prevent the object from falling off the movable body when the movable body with an object hung on it moves.

[0029] [First embodiment] Hereinafter, a first embodiment of a vehicle interior system will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in Fig. 1, the vehicle interior system 1 includes a seat 10, a tail member 20 as an example of a decorative item, a changeover switch 30, and a control unit 100. The seat 10 and the tail member 20 are arranged inside the vehicle, more specifically, in a position facing the passenger compartment. In this embodiment, the seat 10 is the driver's seat or the passenger seat.

[0030] The seat 10 includes a seat cushion 11, a seat back 12, and a headrest 13. The seat cushion 11, the seat back 12, and the headrest 13 each constitute a seat body having a seating surface F. The seating surface F is a surface that comes into contact with and supports an occupant (e.g., a driver) seated in the seat 10.

[0031] The seat cushion 11, seat back 12, and headrest 13 each have a metal frame that forms the framework, a pad that covers the frame, and a skin that covers the pad. The pad is made of urethane foam or the like. The skin is made of synthetic leather, fabric, or the like.

[0032] The seat cushion 11 has a base portion 11A located in the left-right center and protruding portions 11B located on both the left and right outer sides of the base portion 11A. The base portion 11A has a seating surface F that contacts and supports the buttocks and thighs of the occupant from below. The protruding portions 11B protrude from the seating surface F of the base portion 11A toward the occupant to support the sides of the occupant's thighs and buttocks.

[0033] Similarly, the seat back 12 has a base portion 12A located in the center of the seat back and extension portions 12B located on both the left and right sides of the base portion 12A. The base portion 12A has a seating surface F that contacts the back of the occupant and supports the back from behind. The extension portions 12B extend from the seating surface F of the base portion 12A toward the occupant to support the sides of the occupant's upper body.

[0034] The front surface of the headrest 13 serves as a seating surface F that supports the head of the occupant.

[0035] The tail member 20 is provided on the upper part of the seat 10. More specifically, the tail member 20 is located on the left side surface FL of the headrest 13. The side surface FL is the outer surface of the headrest 13 other than the seating surface F. The tail member 20 is positioned to avoid the seating surface F of the seat 10. The tail member 20 protrudes from the side surface FL.

[0036] The tail member 20 has a base portion 21 and a movable body 22. The base portion 21 is a portion that is fixed to the headrest 13. The base portion 21 is, for example, embedded in the pad of the headrest 13 and fixed to the frame of the headrest 13.

[0037] The movable body 22 extends from the base 21, and its tip is configured to be able to move freely in all directions. The movable body 22 is shaped, for example, to resemble a cat's tail. The movable body 22 has, for example, a joint mechanism with multiple joints, a cushioning material such as cotton or sponge that covers the joint mechanism, and a surface covering that covers the cushioning material. The surface is made of, for example, cloth or brushed fabric.

[0038] The joint mechanism has a plurality of links (serial links) that are rotatably connected to each other, and the plurality of links are moved by an actuator.

[0039] The joint mechanism can be configured, for example, like a robot arm. In this case, the actuators for moving the multiple links are multiple motors arranged near the multiple joints.

[0040] The joint mechanism can also be configured to include, for example, multiple links, a spring that biases the multiple links so that they are aligned in a straight rod shape, a wire that pulls the distal link in a direction that causes the multiple links to fold against the biasing force of the spring, and a winch for pulling the wire. In this case, the actuator for moving the multiple links is a winch, and when the winch pulls the wire, the joint mechanism moves in a direction that causes the joint mechanism to fold, and when the winch releases the wire, the spring moves the joint mechanism in a direction that causes the joint mechanism to extend straight. In this case, using multiple wires allows the joint mechanism to be moved so as to fold in different directions, and the distal end of the movable body 22 can be freely moved in any direction.

[0041] The movable body 22 protrudes from the side surface FL. The movable body 22 has a contact sensor 22A and a pressure sensor 22B as an example of a weight detection unit. Contact sensor 22A is located at the tip of movable body 22. For example, a capacitance type touch sensor or a pressure sensor can be used as contact sensor 22A. Contact sensor 22A is located, for example, between the surface and the cushioning material. The pressure sensor 22B is located between the distal end and the proximal end of the movable body 22.

[0042] The movable body 22 is movable between a separated position shown in Fig. 2(a) and a contact position shown in Fig. 2(b) and (c). The movable body 22 positioned at the separated position is separated from the occupant seated in the seat 10. The tip of the movable body 22 positioned at the contact position can come into contact with the head of the occupant seated in the seat 10. More specifically, the tip of the movable body 22 positioned at the contact position can come into contact with the face of the occupant seated in the seat 10. The movable body 22 does not have a seating surface that supports the occupant seated in the seat 10.

[0043] The movable body 22 can be transformed into a standard shape shown in Fig. 2(a) and a holding shape shown in Fig. 3(a). The holding shape is a shape on which an object can be hung. In the holding shape, the movable body 22 is bent at approximately 90°. More specifically, when the movable body 22 is in the holding shape, the movable body 22 extends diagonally downward and left from the left side surface FL of the headrest 13, then bends and extends diagonally upward and left.

[0044] When the movable body 22 is in the holding shape, the tip of the movable body 22 faces upward. In this embodiment, when the movable body 22 is in the holding shape, the tip of the movable body 22 faces diagonally upward to the left.

[0045] The upper surface of movable body 22 in the holding shape forms a V-shaped groove that opens upward. Pressure sensor 22B is located at a position corresponding to the bottom of the V-shaped groove. In other words, pressure sensor 22B is located at the bent portion of movable body 22 in the holding shape. When movable body 22 is in the holding shape, pressure sensor 22B detects the weight of the object held by movable body 22 as pressure and outputs it to control unit 100.

[0046] When the movable body 22 is in the reference shape, the degree of bending of the movable body 22 is smaller than when it is in the held shape.

[0047] The changeover switch 30 is a switch for switching the mode of the control unit 100 to a normal mode, a contact mode, or a hold mode, which will be described later. The changeover switch 30 is tiltable between a normal position corresponding to the normal mode, a contact mode position corresponding to the contact mode, and a hold mode position corresponding to the hold mode. The changeover switch 30 is provided on the seat 10. Note that the changeover switch 30 may also be provided on a member other than the seat 10.

[0048] The control unit 100 has a CPU, ROM, RAM, rewritable nonvolatile memory, etc. (not shown), and executes pre-stored programs. The control unit 100 may be provided in the seat 10, or may be provided in a member other than the seat 10.

[0049] The control unit 100 can operate in a normal mode, a holding mode, and a contact mode. The normal mode is a mode in which the tail member 20 remains in the separated position without moving.

[0050] The holding mode is a mode in which the movable body 22 is in a holding shape. In the holding mode, it is possible to hang an object such as a bag B on the movable body 22, as shown in Fig. 3(b).

[0051] The contact mode is a mode in which the tip of the tail member 20 is moved from the separated position to the contact position depending on the conditions. In the contact mode, the tail member 20 comes into contact with the occupant, which can increase the entertainment value.

[0052] When the changeover switch 30 is switched to the holding mode, the control unit 100 operates the actuator of the tail member 20 to put the movable body 22 into the holding shape.

[0053] In the holding mode, the control unit 100 has a function of moving the movable body 22 based on the pressure (weight) acquired from the pressure sensor 22B. Specifically, the control unit 100 increases the degree of bending of the movable body 22 in the holding shape as the pressure (weight) acquired from the pressure sensor 22B increases.

[0054] 3(b), for example, when an object B1 of a first weight is contained in a bag B hung on the movable body 22, the control unit 100 changes the shape of the movable body 22 to a first shape bent at approximately 90° as indicated by the solid line. When an object B2 of a second weight greater than the first weight is contained in the bag B hung on the movable body 22, the control unit 100 changes the shape of the movable body 22 to a second shape that is more bent than the first shape (for example, a shape bent at approximately 70°).

[0055] The control unit 100 executes the contact mode on the condition that no object is hung on the movable body 22. More specifically, when the selector switch 30 is switched to the contact mode, the control unit 100 determines whether or not an object is hung on the movable body 22 based on the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B, and executes the contact mode when it determines that no object is hung on the movable body 22. In the contact mode, the control unit 100 moves the actuator of the movable body 22 at predetermined time intervals to bring the tip of the movable body 22 into contact with the face of the occupant.

[0056] Next, a detailed description will be given of the operation of the control unit 100. The control unit 100 repeatedly executes the process of Fig. 4 while the vehicle power supply is ON.

[0057] 4, the control unit 100 first determines whether the changeover switch 30 is in the contact mode position (S1). If it is determined in step S1 that the changeover switch 30 is in the contact mode position (Yes), the control unit 100 determines whether an object is hanging on the movable body 22 of the tail member 20 based on the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B (S2). Specifically, in step S2, the control unit 100 determines whether the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B is equal to or greater than a threshold value.

[0058] If it is determined in step S2 that an object is hung (Yes), the control unit 100 ends this process. If it is determined in step S2 that an object is not hung (No), the control unit 100 executes the contact mode (S3).

[0059] If it is determined in step S1 that the switch 30 is not in the contact mode position (No), the control unit 100 determines whether the switch 30 is in the hold mode position (S4). If it is determined in step S4 that the switch 30 is in the hold mode position (Yes), the control unit 100 executes the hold mode (S5). If it is determined in step S4 that the switch 30 is not in the hold mode position (No), the control unit 100 executes the normal mode (S6).

[0060] When the contact mode is started, the control unit 100 starts counting up by a timer. As shown in Fig. 5, in the contact mode, the control unit 100 determines whether the timer value is equal to or greater than a threshold value (S21). If it is determined in step S21 that the timer value is not equal to or greater than the threshold value (No), the control unit 100 ends this process.

[0061] If it is determined in step S21 that the timer value is equal to or greater than the threshold value (Yes), the control unit 100 moves the tip of the tail member 20 toward the contact position (S22). After step S22, the control unit 100 determines whether the tip of the tail member 20 has touched the occupant based on information from the contact sensor 22A (S23).

[0062] If it is determined in step S23 that the tip of the tail member 20 is not touching the occupant (No), the control unit 100 repeats the process of step S23 (No). If it is determined in step S23 that the tip of the tail member 20 is touching the occupant (Yes), the control unit 100 returns the tip of the tail member 20 to the separated position (S24). Note that if the condition of step S23 is not met even after a predetermined time has elapsed in step S23, the control unit 100 proceeds to the process of step S24 and returns the tip of the tail member 20 to the separated position.

[0063] After step S24, the control unit 100 resets the timer and causes the timer to count up again (S25). After step S25, the control unit 100 ends this process.

[0064] 6, in the holding mode, the control unit 100 first operates the actuator of the tail member 20 to place the movable body 22 of the tail member 20 in the holding shape (S41). After step S41, the control unit 100 acquires the pressure corresponding to the weight of the object applied to the movable body 22 from the pressure sensor 22B (S42).

[0065] After step S42, the control unit 100 increases the degree of bending of the movable body 22 as the pressure (weight) acquired from the pressure sensor 22B increases (S43), and ends this process. Specifically, in step S43, if the pressure is less than a threshold value, the control unit 100 causes the movable body 22 to assume a first shape bent at a predetermined degree of bending. If the pressure is equal to or greater than the threshold value, the control unit 100 causes the movable body 22 to assume a second shape bent to a greater degree than the first shape.

[0066] The number of types of shapes with different degrees of bending is not limited to two, and may be three or more. Also, as the holding shape, a ring-shaped shape in which the tip of movable body 22 contacts a portion other than the tip of movable body 22 may be adopted.

[0067] Next, a specific example of the operation of the control unit 100 will be described. When an occupant seated in the seat 10 shown in Fig. 1 switches the changeover switch 30 from the normal position to the contact mode position, a timer starts counting up. When a time corresponding to the timer threshold has elapsed since the changeover switch 30 was switched, the control unit 100 moves the tip of the tail member 20 from the separated position toward the contact position, as shown in Fig. 2(a) and (b) in that order.

[0068] When the tip of the tail member 20 touches the occupant's face, the control unit 100 returns the tip of the tail member 20 to the separated position, resets the timer, and starts counting up the timer from 1. After that, when the time corresponding to the timer threshold has elapsed since the tip of the tail member 20 returned to the separated position, the control unit 100 performs contact processing again and moves the tip of the tail member 20 toward the contact position.

[0069] Therefore, the tail member 20 of the seat 10 periodically touches the face of the occupant seated in the seat 10, so the occupant feels the seat 10 like a pet, develops an attachment to the seat 10, and is comforted by the contact with the tail member 20.

[0070] When an occupant switches the selector switch 30 from the normal position to the holding mode position, the movable body 22 transforms from the shape shown in FIG. 2(a) to the holding shape (first shape) shown in FIG. 3(a). This allows the occupant to hang a bag B containing an item B1 on the movable body 22. Furthermore, when the occupant hangs a bag B containing an item B2 that is heavier than the item B1 on the movable body 22, the movable body 22 transforms from the first shape to the second shape shown by the two-dot chain line. This prevents the bag B containing the heavy item B2 from falling off the movable body 22.

[0071] Furthermore, when the occupant switches the selector switch 30 from the holding mode position to the contact mode position while the bag B is hung on the movable body 22 in the holding shape, the control unit 100 does not execute the contact mode. This prevents the bag B from falling off the movable body 22 due to movement of the movable body 22 on which the bag B is hung.

[0072] The control unit 100 may determine whether the selector switch 30 has been switched from the hold mode position to another position, and if it determines that the switch has been switched, may determine whether an object is hanging on the movable body 22. If it determines that an object is hanging on the movable body 22, the control unit 100 may notify the occupant of this by sound from a speaker or by displaying on a screen, or may be configured to issue a warning sound and not execute other modes. Furthermore, if it determines that an object is not hanging on the movable body 22, the control unit 100 may return the movable body 22 to the reference shape and the separated position shown in FIG. 2(a) and execute other modes.

[0073] As described above, according to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. By configuring the control unit 100 to move the actuator to put the movable body 22 into the holding shape, it is no longer necessary for the occupant to manually put the movable body 22 into the holding shape, thereby reducing the effort required to prepare the movable body 22 into the holding shape.

[0074] By configuring the movable body 22 to bend more in the holding shape as the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B increases, it is possible to prevent a heavy object from falling off the movable body 22.

[0075] The entertainment value can be increased by configuring the device to be able to execute the contact mode. Also, by setting the condition for making the movable body 22 come into contact with the occupant as being that no object is hung on the movable body 22, it is possible to prevent the object from falling off the movable body 22 when the movable body 22 moves with an object hung on it.

[0076] [Second embodiment] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that this embodiment is a modification of the structure and processing of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment described above, and therefore, the same reference numerals will be used to designate the same components and processing as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0077] As shown in Figures 7(a) and (b), the vehicle interior system 201 of the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it includes a monitor 210 as an example of a display unit, a movable body 220 that has a partially different structure from the first embodiment, and a camera 230.

[0078] The monitor 210 has a screen for displaying images and is placed in front of the seat 10. The screen of the monitor 210 faces the seat 10.

[0079] The movable body 220 has a base portion 21 and a movable body 22 that are substantially the same as those in the first embodiment, and further has a light 221. The light 221 is provided at the tip of the movable body 22.

[0080] Camera 230 is a camera that captures an image of the periphery of movable body 22. Camera 230 captures an image of the periphery of movable body 22, thereby acquiring an image of an object hung on movable body 22 in the holding shape.

[0081] 8(a), in the holding mode, the control unit 100 has a function of controlling the light 221 based on the pressure (weight) acquired from the pressure sensor 22B of the movable body 22. In this embodiment, the control unit 100 turns on the light 221 in a color corresponding to the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B. Specifically, the control unit 100 turns on the light 221 in blue when the pressure is less than a first threshold, turns on the light 221 in yellow when the pressure is equal to or greater than the first threshold and less than a second threshold that is greater than the first threshold, and turns on the light 221 in red when the pressure is equal to or greater than the second threshold.

[0082] The second threshold value can be set to a value corresponding to the maximum weight that the movable body 22 in the holding shape can withstand. The color of light of the lighting 221 is not limited to three types, but may be two, four or more types, and can be set arbitrarily. However, it is desirable that the color of light corresponding to the threshold value corresponding to the maximum weight is red. Furthermore, the method is not limited to changing the color, and for example, the intensity of the light may be increased as the pressure (weight) increases.

[0083] As shown in FIG. 8(b), the control unit 100 has a function of moving a character on the screen of the monitor 210 according to the pressure (weight) acquired from the pressure sensor 22B. In this embodiment, the character is a cat character. Also, in this embodiment, the pressure sensor 22B corresponds to an object information acquisition unit that acquires object information related to an object hung on the movable body 22. The pressure sensor 22B acquires the weight (pressure) of the object as object information.

[0084] For example, the greater the pressure acquired from pressure sensor 22B, the more distressed the cat's face on the screen becomes. The greater the pressure acquired from pressure sensor 22B, the more the control unit 100 lowers the cat's tail on the screen. The greater the pressure acquired from pressure sensor 22B, the more the control unit 100 increases the amount of sweat the cat on the screen produces.

[0085] Furthermore, when the pressure acquired from pressure sensor 22B exceeds the second threshold (limit threshold) described above, control unit 100 may move the cat on the screen in a manner that emphasizes that the cat is heavy. When the pressure acquired from pressure sensor 22B exceeds the limit threshold, control unit 100 may issue a voice notification such as "It's heavy" from a speaker built into the monitor, and gradually change the shape of the cat's tail from a bent shape to a straight shape, thereby presenting the impression that the cat cannot withstand the weight.

[0086] The control unit 100 also has a function of displaying on the screen an image of the object hung on the movable body 22, acquired from the camera 230. The control unit 100 determines the size of the image of the object relative to the cat's tail to be displayed on the screen, based on the size of the movable body 22 and the object captured by the camera 230, and displays the image of the object so that it overlaps the image of the cat's tail.

[0087] Next, the operation of the control unit 100 will be described in detail. In this embodiment, the control unit 100 executes the hold mode shown in Fig. 9. The hold mode shown in Fig. 9 is obtained by adding new steps S61 and S62 to the process of Fig. 6.

[0088] 9, after step S43, control unit 100 turns on light 221 in a color corresponding to the pressure (weight) acquired from pressure sensor 22B (S61). After step S61, control unit 100 moves the character on the screen in a manner corresponding to the pressure (weight) acquired from pressure sensor 22B (S62), and ends this process.

[0089] Next, a specific example of the operation of the control unit 100 will be described. 8(a), when a bag B containing an object weighing more than the second threshold (limit threshold) is hung on the movable body 22 in the holding shape, the control unit 100 turns on the light 221 in red. After that, the control unit 100 displays on the monitor 210 an image of a sweating cat with a pained expression.

[0090] Although not shown in the drawings, an example of control when a bag B containing an item with a weight less than the first threshold is hung on the movable body 22 in the holding shape will be described below. When bag B containing an object with a weight less than the first threshold is hung on movable body 22 in the holding shape, control unit 100 turns on light 221 in blue. Thereafter, control unit 100 displays on monitor 210 an image of a cat whose tail is positioned higher and which is not sweating compared to the image of the cat in Fig. 8(a).

[0091] According to the second embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. By configuring the character to move in response to the pressure acquired from the pressure sensor 22B, the entertainment value can be increased.

[0092] The object information acquisition unit may be a camera. In this case, the control unit 100 may move the character on the screen according to the size of the object (the object hung on the movable body 22) captured by the camera. For example, the larger the size of the object, the more distressed the cat's face on the screen may be, the lower its tail may be, or the amount of sweat the cat on the screen may increase.

[0093] [Third embodiment] Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that this embodiment is a modification of the structure and processing of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment described above, and therefore, the same reference numerals will be used to designate the same components and processing as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0094] As shown in FIG. 10, a vehicle interior system 301 according to the third embodiment further includes an acceleration sensor 310 as an example of an acceleration detection unit, in addition to the configuration of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment. The acceleration sensor 310 can detect the vertical acceleration applied to the vehicle.

[0095] When the movable body 22 is in the held shape, that is, in the held mode, the control unit 100 has a function of moving the movable body 22 based on the acceleration acquired from the acceleration sensor 310. Specifically, in the held mode, when the control unit 100 acquires downward acceleration from the acceleration sensor 310, it moves the movable body 22 downward.

[0096] 11(a) and 11(b), for example, when a vehicle with a bag B hanging on movable body 22 runs up a step and then descends due to gravity, bag B, which falls behind the descent of the vehicle, can be lowered while being supported by movable body 22 moving downward, thereby preventing excessive load from being applied to movable body 22. The timing at which control unit 100 starts moving movable body 22 downward can be set appropriately through experiments or simulations, and can be, for example, a predetermined time after downward acceleration is detected by acceleration sensor 310.

[0097] Next, a detailed description will be given of the operation of the control unit 100. In this embodiment, the control unit 100 executes the hold mode shown in Fig. 12. The hold mode shown in Fig. 12 has step S41, which is substantially the same as in the first embodiment, and new steps S81 to S84.

[0098] 12, in the tail mode, the control unit 100 sets the movable body 22 of the tail member 20 to the holding shape (S41), and then acquires acceleration from the acceleration sensor 310 (S81). After step S81, the control unit 100 determines whether the acquired acceleration is a downward acceleration (S82).

[0099] If it is determined in step S82 that the acceleration is not downward (No), the control unit 100 ends this process. If it is determined in step S82 that the acceleration is downward (Yes), the control unit 100 lowers the movable body 22 by a predetermined amount at a predetermined timing (S83).

[0100] After step S83, the control unit 100 returns the movable body 22 to its original position after a predetermined time (S84), and ends this process. Here, the original position is the position of the movable body 22 when it was set to the holding shape in step S41.

[0101] According to the third embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. When a vehicle climbs up a step with a bag B hanging on the movable body 22 and then descends due to gravity, the bag B, which falls behind the descent of the vehicle, can be lowered while being supported by the movable body 22 moving downward, thereby preventing excessive load from being applied to the movable body 22.

[0102] The acceleration detection unit may be a sensor capable of detecting acceleration in the front-rear direction or the left-right direction. For example, the control unit may recognize the acceleration of the vehicle in the left-right direction and adjust the position of the movable body to prevent the bag from falling. Specifically, for example, when the bag is swaying left and right due to successive left and right curves, the control unit may stabilize the bag by moving the movable body so as to counteract the acceleration (by increasing the bending angle or moving it up and down). In this case, the control unit may also display an image of a character holding the bag on a display unit such as a monitor. The character's movement may also be linked to the acceleration mitigation action of the movable body.

[0103] [Fourth embodiment] Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that this embodiment is a modification of the structure and processing of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment described above, and therefore, the same reference numerals will be used to designate the same components and processing as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0104] 13, a vehicle interior system 401 according to the fourth embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it includes a camera C as an example of a recognition unit, and that two tail members 20, substantially the same as those in the first embodiment, are provided on each of the left and right sides of the headrest 13. In this embodiment, the seat 10 provided with two tail members 20 is the driver's seat.

[0105] Camera C is installed, for example, on the ceiling of the vehicle. Camera C can capture images of the outside of the vehicle, specifically, in all directions, including the front, rear, left, and right of the vehicle. As shown in Figures 14(a) and 14(c), camera C can recognize belongings of a passenger who is about to get into the vehicle from outside the vehicle.

[0106] The left and right movable bodies 22 can be transformed into a first holding shape shown in FIG. 14(b) and a second holding shape shown in FIG. 14(d). The first holding shape is a shape that allows a bag BG, which is an example of a first article, to be hung. In this embodiment, the first holding shape is the same as the holding shape in the first embodiment. Furthermore, of the left and right movable bodies 22, the right movable body 22 can be changed into the first holding shape.

[0107] The second holding shape is a shape that allows for hanging clothes CL as an example of a second article. Specifically, the left movable body 22 extends diagonally upward to the left from the left side surface of the headrest 13, then bends and extends diagonally upward to the right. The right movable body 22 extends diagonally upward to the right from the right side surface of the headrest 13, then bends and extends diagonally upward to the left. The bent portions of the left and right movable bodies 22 are capable of holding the shoulders of the clothes CL.

[0108] When the control unit 100 determines that the belongings recognized by the camera C are a bag BG, it sets the movable body 22 to the first holding shape. When the control unit 100 determines that the belongings recognized by the camera C are clothes CL, it sets the movable body 22 to the second holding shape.

[0109] Next, a detailed description will be given of the operation of the control unit 100. When an occupant approaches the vehicle, the control unit 100 executes the onboard hold mode shown in Fig. 15. Here, the determination of whether an occupant has approached the vehicle can be made based on information from a smart key carried by the occupant, for example.

[0110] 15, in the on-board holding mode, the control unit 100 first acquires an image from the camera C (S105). After step S105, the control unit 100 determines whether the belongings of the occupant approaching the vehicle are a bag BG based on the image acquired from the camera C (S102).

[0111] If it is determined in step S102 that the personal item is a bag BG (Yes), the control unit 100 sets the movable body 22 of the tail member 20 to the first holding shape (S103), and ends this process. If it is determined in step S102 that the personal item is not a bag BG (No), the control unit 100 determines whether the personal item is clothes CL (S104).

[0112] If it is determined in step S104 that the clothing is CL (Yes), the control unit 100 sets the movable body 22 of the tail member 20 to the second holding shape (S105) and ends this process. If it is determined in step S104 that the clothing is not CL (No), the control unit 100 leaves the left and right movable bodies 22 in the reference shape and ends this process.

[0113] Next, a specific example of the operation of the control unit 100 will be described. As shown in Fig. 14(a), when the driver approaches the vehicle carrying the bag BG, the right-side movable body 22 assumes the first holding shape as shown in Fig. 14(b). Therefore, when the driver opens the driver's side door of the vehicle, the tip of the movable body 22 in the first holding shape faces the driver (outside in the left-right direction of the vehicle), making it easier for the driver to hang the bag BG on the movable body 22.

[0114] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 14(c), when the driver approaches the vehicle holding the clothes CL, the left and right movable bodies 22 assume the second holding shape as shown in Fig. 14(d), allowing the driver to hang the clothes CL on the left and right movable bodies.

[0115] According to the fourth embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. When the control unit 100 determines that the belongings recognized by the camera C are a bag BG, it sets the movable body 22 to the first holding shape, and when it determines that the belongings recognized by the camera C are clothes CL, it sets the movable body 22 to the second holding shape, thereby reducing the effort required of the occupant.

[0116] In the fourth embodiment, the left and right movable bodies 22 on the outer side of the vehicle in the left-right direction (the side farther from the center of the vehicle in the left-right direction) are made into the first holding shape, but the movable body 22 on the inner side of the vehicle in the left-right direction (the side closer to the center of the vehicle in the left-right direction) may be made into the first holding shape, or both the left and right movable bodies 22 may be made into the first holding shape.

[0117] [Fifth embodiment] Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that this embodiment is a modification of the structure and processing of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment described above, and therefore, the same reference numerals will be used to designate the same components and processing as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0118] As shown in FIG. 16(b), a vehicle interior system 501 according to the fifth embodiment includes seats 10 arranged side by side, and tail members 20 provided on each seat 10. The left seat 10 is provided with a tail member 20 on the right side of the headrest 13. The right seat 10 is provided with a tail member 20 on the left side of the headrest 13.

[0119] The movable body 22 of the tail member 20 provided on each seat 10 can be transformed into a connected shape as shown in Figure 16(b). In the connected shape, the tips of the left and right movable bodies 22 are in contact with each other so that the left and right movable bodies 22 appear to be connected. Furthermore, the left and right movable bodies 22 each incline to be positioned downward as they approach the left-right center of the vehicle, and then incline to be positioned upward as they approach the left-right center.

[0120] As shown in FIG. 16(a), when the control unit 100 determines that the belongings recognized by the camera C are umbrellas UM, it causes the movable bodies 22 to assume a connected shape.

[0121] The fifth embodiment can be combined with, for example, the fourth embodiment. In this case, for example, the left and right seats 10 each include two tail members 20, as shown in Fig. 14(b) etc. Then, when the belongings of the occupant outside the vehicle are bags BG, the control unit 100 sets the right movable body 22 of the driver's seat to the first holding shape, when the belongings are clothes CL, sets the two movable bodies 22 of the driver's seat to the second holding shape, and when the belongings are umbrellas UM, sets the two movable bodies 22 of the left and right seats 10 closer to the center in the left-right direction of the vehicle to a connected shape for hanging the umbrella UM.

[0122] In this way, by deforming the movable body 22 into various shapes according to the belongings of the occupant outside the vehicle, the movable body 22 can hold the belongings in a shape suitable for the belongings.

[0123] In the coupled configuration, the two movable bodies may not simply contact each other, but the claws on each movable body may hook together. Also, a locking device on one movable body may lock a part of the other movable body.

[0124] [Sixth embodiment] Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. Note that this embodiment is a modification of the vehicle interior system 1 according to the first embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals are used to designate the same components and processes as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0125] 17(a), a vehicle interior system 601 according to the sixth embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the seat 10 has an airbag 610. The tail member 20 is provided on the left side surface FL of the headrest 13 of the seat 10, as in the first embodiment.

[0126] The airbag 610 is embedded in the left overhang 12B of the seat back 12. The airbag 610 is located at an upper portion of the left overhang 12B. The cover 620 of the seat back 12 has a tear line 621 that breaks when the airbag 610 is deployed. The tear line 621 is located at the front end of the left overhang 12B.

[0127] When the airbag 610 is activated, the airbag 610 ruptures the tear line 621 and deploys forward. That is, the deployment direction of the airbag 610 is forward.

[0128] As shown in Figure 17(b), the tail member 20 is located behind the tear line 621, that is, upstream in the deployment direction. The tail member 20 is spaced apart from the tear line 621 in the up-down direction. As shown in Figure 17(a), the tail member 20 does not overlap with the tear line 621 in the deployment direction of the airbag 610, that is, when viewed from the front. By configuring the tail member 20 so that it does not overlap with the tear line 621 when viewed from the deployment direction of the airbag 610, it is possible to prevent the airbag 610 from interfering with the tail member 20 when the airbag 610 is deployed.

[0129] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be used in various forms as exemplified below. The decorative item may be provided not only on the headrest but also on the rear surface or side of the seat back or on the armrest. The decorative item may be detachable from the seat and may be attachable to various positions on the seat.

[0130] The transition to the holding mode may be made, for example, when the ornament is pulled multiple times, for example, three times, in which case a sensor may be provided to detect when the ornament is pulled.

[0131] The sensor for detecting the weight may be attached to the base of the movable body. When an occupant has forgotten their luggage and is about to lock the vehicle door, the reminder may be provided by moving an ornament. For example, the reminder may be provided by a light provided on the ornament. Specifically, the control unit may determine whether the door is open, and if it determines that the door is open and that an object is hanging on the movable body, it may turn on the light on the ornament.

[0132] The weight detection unit may be a camera, and the control unit may estimate the weight of the object by analyzing an image of the object captured by the camera.

[0133] The vehicle interior system may include a seating detection sensor that detects whether an occupant is seated in the seat. Examples of the seating detection sensor include a seating sensor on the seat and a camera that photographs the occupant. In this case, the control unit may execute the contact process when it determines that an occupant is seated in the seat based on information from the seating detection sensor, and may prohibit the contact process when it determines that an occupant is not seated in the seat. In this way, the control unit executes the contact process only after recognizing that an occupant is seated in the seat, thereby preventing malfunction and creating a sense of exclusivity that communication can only be achieved within the vehicle interior.

[0134] The decorative item may be located on an upper part of the seat other than the headrest. For example, the decorative item may be located on the upper surface of the seat back, on either the left or right side, or on the back. The decorative item may also be located on either the left or right side or the underside of the seat cushion. When the decorative item is located on the upper part of the seat, the movable body can come into contact with the occupant's head, making it easier for the occupant to notice the movable body coming into contact.

[0135] The contact sensor may be a camera placed in a position where it can capture an image of the occupant, or a camera provided on a movable body (for example, the tip of a tail member). In this case, the control unit may determine whether the movable body has touched the occupant based on information from the camera.

[0136] The control unit may change the destination (contact position) of the movable body depending on the conditions. For example, the control unit may move the movable body so as to contact the head of the occupant when a first condition is satisfied, and may move the movable body so as to contact the shoulder of the occupant when a second condition is satisfied.

[0137] The control unit may change the contact time, which is the time during which the movable body is in contact with the occupant, depending on the conditions. For example, the control unit may set the contact time to a first time when a first condition is satisfied, and may set the contact time to a second time, which is longer than the first time, when a second condition is satisfied.

[0138] The control unit may change the number of contacts, which is the number of times the movable body comes into contact with the occupant, depending on the conditions. For example, the control unit may set the number of contacts to a first number when a first condition is satisfied, and may set the number of contacts to a second number greater than the first number when a second condition is satisfied.

[0139] The control unit may determine the contact time or the number of contacts based on information from a contact sensor, for example.

[0140] The control unit may cause the movable body to come into contact with the occupant based on vehicle information acquired by the vehicle. In this case, the movable body can contact the occupant to notify the occupant of any information. Examples of the vehicle information include the distance between the host vehicle and another vehicle, information on whether the preceding vehicle has started moving while the host vehicle is stopped, information on whether the host vehicle will deviate from its lane, lane change timing for lane change assistance, and steering and acceleration / deceleration information for vehicle driving assistance.

[0141] The vehicle interior system may include a notification device that notifies the occupant of information by voice or display. The notification device may be, for example, an agent device such as a robot, or a navigation system. The control unit may perform contact processing after notifying the occupant using the notification device. In this way, when notifying the occupant of information by voice or display, a contact action is added as a supplementary form of communication, so that notification can be performed using both vision or hearing and touch. The control unit may, for example, change the destination (contact position) of the movable body depending on the information to be notified.

[0142] The control unit may execute the contact process randomly within a predetermined time period. The control unit may change the moving distance, moving speed, etc. of the movable body.

[0143] The control unit may execute the contact process based on the content of the voice acquired from the occupant.

[0144] The vehicle interior system includes a physical information acquisition unit that acquires the physique of the occupant, and the control unit may estimate the position of body parts such as the head and shoulders of the occupant sitting in the seat based on the physical information acquired from the physical information acquisition unit.

[0145] Examples of the physical information acquisition unit include a camera capable of photographing the occupant, a device that stores the occupant's physical information such as a smartphone or a wearable device, and multiple pressure sensors provided on the seat.

[0146] The camera may be, for example, an in-vehicle camera, an exterior camera, or a camera mounted on a movable body. In the case of an exterior camera, the control unit estimates the position of the head and shoulders of the occupant sitting in the seat based on an image of the occupant captured by the exterior camera before getting in the vehicle.

[0147] The contact strength (the strength with which the movable body pushes the occupant) may be changed depending on the contact position. For example, the contact strength may be strong on the top of the head and weak on the face.

[0148] The contact position may be set arbitrarily. For example, it may be set so as not to contact the face or head of the occupant so as not to ruin their hair or makeup. For example, the head may be set as the first position, the sides of the face as the second position, the ears as the third position, and the shoulders as the fourth position. A plurality of movable bodies may be provided, and may be capable of coming into contact with the thighs, abdomen, or arms of the occupant.

[0149] The control unit may estimate the physical and mental state of the occupant based on the biological information. The control unit may increase the frequency of contact processing when the occupant's mental state is deteriorating.

[0150] The control unit may change the posture of the seat so that the movable body is more likely to come into contact with the occupant. For example, the control unit may perform at least one of the following processes before performing the contact process. The tilt-up mechanism tilts up the front end of the seat cushion, allowing the occupant's body to lean backward. The reclining mechanism moves the seat back toward the occupant, rotating the seat back to a position where the tail member of the headrest can contact the occupant. Whether the seat back has reached a position where it can contact the occupant can be determined, for example, based on information from a pressure sensor installed in the seat back. The ottoman drive mechanism raises the ottoman, allowing the occupant's body to lean backward.

[0151] Before executing the contact process, the control unit may activate a vibration device provided on the seat to notify that the movable body will start moving.

[0152] The movable body may be provided with a heater, which can warm the part of the occupant's body that comes into contact with the movable body, thereby improving the comfort of the occupant. The headrest may be equipped with a heater.

[0153] The ornament is not limited to a cat's tail. For example, other examples of ornaments include models imitating body parts (ears, limbs, whiskers) of animals such as dogs and cats, stuffed toys imitating the entire body of a human or animal, models imitating characters that anthropomorphize objects or living things, models imitating plants such as flowers and trees, models of buildings such as castles, and robots. The movable body may be the arms or legs of a robot, or a device that rotates or raises and lowers the entire robot.

[0154] Changing the shape of an ornament is not limited to changing between a straight and a bent state, and any change that changes the external shape of the ornament is acceptable. For example, if the ornament is made up of air cells that can expand and contract with air, the shape of the ornament may change between a normal state and a state that is more deflated than the normal state. In this case, the actuator that changes the shape of the ornament may be a pump that switches between supplying and discharging air to the ornament.

[0155] The actuator may be an artificial muscle such as that disclosed in JP 2023-008896 A.

[0156] The ornament may also have a plurality of stacked air cells. In this case, by selecting the air cells to inflate, the shape of the ornament can be changed in multiple stages.

[0157] The decorative item may also have a shape memory alloy. In this case, a heater is provided on or around the decorative item. The shape memory alloy may be configured, for example, to assume a first straight shape when the temperature of the shape memory alloy is below a predetermined temperature, and assume a second bent shape when the temperature is above the predetermined temperature. The control unit may change the shape of the shape memory alloy by controlling the heater.

[0158] The decorative item may have a display unit, a communication unit, a speaker, etc. The decorative item may be operable by an operation input unit such as a seat, door, or navigation system.

[0159] The vehicle is not limited to an automobile, but may be other vehicles such as a motorcycle or a train.

[0160] Examples of methods for manufacturing a vehicle interior system include the following methods. A method for manufacturing a vehicle interior system comprising: an ornament that is provided on a seat and placed at a position that avoids the seating surface of the seat, the ornament having a movable body that is moved by an actuator; and a control unit, wherein the movable body is a bent holding shape that can be deformed into a holding shape that allows an object to be hung on it and a shape that is less bent than the holding shape, and the control unit moves the actuator to change the movable body into the holding shape when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the method comprising the steps of attaching the ornament to the seat and connecting the actuator to the control unit.

[0161] The elements described in the above-described embodiment and modified examples may be implemented in any combination. [Explanation of symbols]
