Automobile with variable back row seats
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of automobiles.
Background
With the development of society and the continuous improvement of living standard of people, automobiles become an important way for people to go out, and with the development, the requirements of people on automobile comfortableness are higher and higher.
Car seats are an important factor affecting ride comfort, and most cars are designed as five seats, two front seats for drivers and copilot, and three passenger seats for rear row. Because of the limitations of the structure and wheelbase of the automobile, the back row seats are compact, the leg space is small, the angle of the backrest of the back row seats can not be adjusted or can only be finely adjusted, and the sitting for a long time can be uncomfortable. To solve the above problems, some automobile manufacturers lengthen the wheelbase to increase the leg space of the rear seat at the cost of influencing the driving operability, but the improvement of the comfort of the passengers by the above measures is not obvious due to the problem of the angle of the back of the rear seat.
Because the back row seat rarely sits full of three persons at ordinary times, only one to two persons often sit, the back row of certain luxury handlebars is designed to be a two-person seat, and also some automobile manufacturers design the middle seat in the back row to be smaller, and the back is provided with a movable armrest platform.
In view of the foregoing, there is a need for a rear seat for a car that is adapted to a car and that can improve passenger comfort.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide an automobile with a variable rear seat, so as to improve the comfort of rear passengers.
The automobile with the variable back row seat comprises the back row seat arranged at the back row position of the automobile, and is characterized in that the back row seat comprises a variable seat with a seat posture adjusting function and a fixed seat arranged beside the variable seat, the back row of the automobile is provided with a first guide rail, a rotary supporting device is movably arranged on the first guide rail, and the variable seat is fixed on the rotary supporting device.
The variable seat can move along the first guide rail, so that the space beside the seat assembly is increased, then the angle of the variable seat is changed by rotating the supporting device, so that the variable seat is inclined to the central axis of the vehicle body, at this time, the variable seat is deformed into a reclining chair through the angle adjustment of the seat back and the angle adjustment of the seat cushion, and passengers can stretch legs, feet and shoulders and backs on the reclining chair, so that the pressure of the human body is dispersed on the legs and the backs, and the comfort is improved.
Further, the first guide rail extends to below the fixed seat in the vehicle width direction, and the seat cushion of the fixed seat is a detachable seat cushion or a foldable seat cushion. The seat cushion of the fixed seat beside the variable seat is arranged as a detachable seat cushion or a foldable seat cushion, so that when the space of the fixed seat is occupied by moving the variable seat, the seat cushion of the fixed seat can be detached or folded to avoid interference with the variable seat.

The above-mentioned seat posture adjustment function, the telescopic leg rest 4 and the telescopic foot rest 5 are all of the prior art, and are not described here again.
As shown in fig. 2, the floor of the rear row of the automobile is provided with a first rail 6 extending in the width direction of the vehicle body, the first rail 6 extends from below the variable seat 1 to below the first fixed seat 2, and the first rail 6 is preferably a W rail or a high-low rail, which is relatively firm. The first guide rail 6 is movably provided with a rotation supporting device, and the variable seat 1 is fixed on the rotation supporting device. Specifically, the rotation support device is composed of a bottom plate 8 movably erected on the first guide rail 6 through a lifting frame 7, a second guide rail 9 arranged on the top surface of the bottom plate 8 and extending along the length direction of the vehicle body, a top plate 10 movably erected on the second guide rail 9, and a rotation mechanism 11 arranged on the top plate 10, and the variable seat 1 is fixed on the rotation mechanism 11. As shown in fig. 3, the lifting frame 7 is formed by connecting a front lifting frame and a rear lifting frame through a connecting rod, the front lifting frame and the rear lifting frame are all X-shaped frames formed by connecting metal rods through rotating shafts, and are provided with lifting driving mechanisms, the rear lifting frame is an elastic frame made of elastic metal rods, and the front lifting frame can be an elastic frame or a non-elastic frame. Of course, the front lifting support and the rear lifting support can be supports of other shapes, so long as the functions of lifting and supporting are achieved.
The rear row position of the automobile is provided with a support block 12 for supporting the rear position of the variable seat 1 below the position corresponding to the variable seat 1, and the support block 12 is used for supporting the rear position of the variable seat 1 by a stress point on the rear part of the top plate 10 in a normal state (i.e., when the variable seat 1 is not deformed into the reclining chair).
Through adjusting the height of preceding lifting support, back lifting support, can be when variable seat 1 warp to the deck chair state, passenger's weight distribution on the deck chair makes variable seat 1 be the little tilt state of front high back low, when the car was stopped like this, because back lifting support is elasticity, so receives inertial action can incline more, and the passenger is difficult for rolling off from the seat, has improved the security. The rear lifting support is arranged to be an elastic support, and certain buffering can be formed when the automobile is started and braked, so that the comfort of passengers is improved.
In addition, as shown in fig. 3, a third guide rail 13 extending along the length direction of the vehicle body is provided on the front floor of the first fixed seat 2, a support assembly is mounted on the third guide rail 13, the support assembly is formed by connecting a front support plate 14 and a rear support plate 15 through a rotating shaft 16, the bottom end of the front support plate 14 is movably mounted on the third guide rail 13, the bottom end of the rear support plate 15 is fixed on the third guide rail 13, and a horizontal driving mechanism (horizontal driving mechanism is not shown in the figure) for driving the bottom end of the front support plate 14 to move along the third guide rail 13 is further provided on the support assembly. When the bottom end of the front supporting plate 14 is driven by the horizontal driving mechanism to move backwards along the third guide rail 13, the joint of the front supporting plate 14 and the rear supporting plate 15 can be gradually raised to finally form a triangular structure, and at the moment, the top end of the rear supporting plate 15 is propped against the front lifting bracket to provide support for the front lower part of the lifting frame 7 or the bottom plate 8 so as to avoid the falling of the lifting frame 7 during sudden braking of an automobile. The horizontal driving mechanism can be composed of a motor and a driving rod extending along the length direction of the vehicle body, a rotating shaft of the motor is matched with the driving rod through a gear and a rack, the motor rotates to drive the driving rod to horizontally move, and the end part of the driving rod is movably connected with the bottom end of the front supporting plate 14 through a lantern ring or a limiting groove, so that the bottom end of the front supporting plate 14 is driven to move.
Of course, the function of supporting the lifting frame 7 can also be realized by arranging a trapezoid chest 17 on the front floor of the first fixed seat 2 as shown in fig. 4, and arranging a lifting plate 18 inclined backward and a vertical driving mechanism (vertical driving mechanism is not shown in the figure) for driving the lifting plate 18 to lift inside the trapezoid chest 17. After lifting the lifting plate 18 by the vertical driving mechanism, the top end of the lifting plate 18 abuts against the front lifting bracket or the front lower part of the bottom plate 8 to provide support for the lifting bracket 7. The vertical driving mechanism may be composed of a motor, the rotating shaft of the motor is matched with the lifting plate 18 through a gear and a rack, and the motor rotates to drive the lifting plate 18 to move vertically. The two schemes for supporting the lifting frame 7 can be selected.
As shown in fig. 3, a third fixed seat 19 is disposed in front of the second fixed seat 3, in this embodiment, the third fixed seat 19 corresponds to a driver seat, a vertical fourth guide rail 20 is disposed on the back of the third fixed seat 19, a leg and foot supporting box 21 is disposed on the fourth guide rail 20, the leg and foot supporting box 21 is formed by sequentially connecting five plates arranged up and down through a horizontal hinge, the top end of the uppermost plate is fixedly connected with the back of the third fixed seat 19, and the lowermost plate is movably mounted on the fourth guide rail 20 and is connected with a supporting box driving mechanism. When the box supporting driving mechanism drives the lowest plate to move upwards along the fourth guide rail 20, five plates can be folded into a box body structure with two open ends, and a passenger on the variable seat 1 can stretch feet into the leg and foot supporting box 21 so as to improve comfort and concealment. When the tray driving mechanism drives the lowest plate to move downwards along the fourth guide rail 20, the five plates can be leveled to be flat plates clung to the back of the chair back of the third fixed chair 19, so that occupied space is reduced. The tray driving mechanism is a transmitted vertical driving mechanism, and is not described herein.
The top block 22 is installed to the plate of the bottommost, the top of top block 22 is the plane, and the top surface of top block 22 offsets with the bottom plate 8 of leg and foot holds in the palm box 21 (namely from top to bottom's fourth plate), can form stable, powerful support, guarantees the stability of leg and foot holds in the palm box 21.
As shown in fig. 1,4 and 5, two sides of the backrest of the variable seat 1 are provided with armrest grooves 23 with opening directions facing the front of the vehicle, the armrest grooves 23 are internally provided with armrests 24, the armrests 24 are composed of two hard plates at the bottom and the top and elastic strips (such as rubber strips) connecting the two hard plates, and the hard plates at the bottom are movably connected with the backrest of the variable seat 1 through rotating shafts 27. When the armrest 24 is needed, the armrest 24 can be rotated out of the armrest groove 23, the hard plate at the upper part of the armrest 24 can be folded outwards and downwards into a right angle shape under the pressure of the arm so as to support the arm of a passenger and improve the comfort, and after the passenger removes the arm, the hard plate at the upper part is quickly restored to a state of being clung to the hard plate at the bottom under the elastic action of the elastic strip so as to be convenient to retract into the armrest groove 23. By folding the armrests 24 of the deformable structure, the width of the armrests slot 23 can be reduced, thereby reducing the width of the occupied chair back.
In this embodiment, in order to improve the degree of automation, the first stationary seat 2 and the second stationary seat 3 are each provided with a sensor for detecting whether a person sits above the seat (for example, a pressure sensor provided at the seat cushion, which is connected to a controller 26 provided at the seatback side of the variable seat 1 when the pressure sensor detects that the pressure above the seat cushion exceeds a predetermined range, that is, indicates that a passenger sits on the seat). In the present embodiment, the sensor for detecting whether or not there is a passenger on the first stationary seat 2 is the pressure-controlled switch 25 provided at the side of the seat cushion of the second stationary seat 3, and when the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2 is folded or taken down, the pressure-controlled switch 25 loses the pressing of the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2, thereby triggering.
The controller 26 is used for controlling the back angle, the seat cushion angle, the headrest height, the rotation supporting device, the lifting frame 7, the horizontal driving mechanism, the vertical driving mechanism, the box supporting driving mechanism and the like of the variable seat 1 in a remote control or wire control manner, and the controller 26 can detect whether a person is on the first fixed seat 2 and the second fixed seat 3 through the sensor, so as to determine to adopt a proper mode (such as a single person mode, a double person mode and a three person mode) to control the action of the variable seat 1, so as to improve the comfort of passengers, and the specific method is as follows:
the above-mentioned variable seat 1 can follow the first guide rail 6 and remove along the automobile body width direction to make this seat assembly be close to the one side space increase of door, then through rotating strutting arrangement and changing the angle, make variable seat 1 slope to automobile body axis, can be through back of the chair angle adjustment at this moment, become the form of deck chair with variable seat 1 (as shown in fig. 5), the passenger is on the deck chair, leg and foot and shoulder dorsum can extend, thereby with human pressure dispersion at leg and back, improved the travelling comfort.
When there is only one passenger in the rear seat, the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2 is first removed or folded up (which may also be set to be controlled by the controller 26 to fold electrically) to expose the first rail 6 under the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2, then the top plate 10 is moved forward to bring the top plate 10 into substantial alignment with the bottom plate 8, at which time the position of the variable seat 1 has avoided the seat back position of the first stationary seat 2 and thus can be moved laterally along the first rail 6, after the variable seat 1 has been moved to the middle or other suitable position, the variable seat 1 is rotated and its seat back angle is adjusted backwards to deform the variable seat 1 into a recliner chair, while the leg rest 4 and the foot rest 5 are extended to support the legs and feet of the passenger. Of course, instead of the leg rest 4 and the foot rest 5, the feet may be placed directly on the seat cushion of the second stationary seat 3, or the feet may be inserted into the leg rest box 21 at the back of the third stationary seat 19. In order to reduce the space occupied by the variable seat 1 and thereby increase the angle of rearward adjustment of the seat back thereof, it is preferable to lower the headrest thereof to the lowest position, and in order to improve stability, the seat cushion of the variable seat 1 may be adjusted to a front-high rear-low mode by the lifter 7.
Unlike the single person mode described above, in which the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2 is first removed or folded up (which may also be controlled by the controller 26) to expose the first rail 6 below the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2, and then the top plate 10 is moved forward to bring the top plate 10 into substantial alignment with the floor 8, where the position of the variable seat 1 has avoided the seat back position of the first stationary seat 2 and is thus movable laterally along the first rail 6, the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2 is first removed or folded up (which may also be controlled by the controller 26) to expose the first rail 6 below the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2, and in which the position of the variable seat 1 has been moved away from the seat back position of the first stationary seat 2 and is thus laterally movable along the first rail 6, it is noted that the second stationary seat 3 is not touched by the user when the variable seat 1 is to be changed to a recliner, and the lifting frame 7 must be raised to space the legs of the passenger on the second stationary seat 3, while the lifting and lowering the leg boxes 21 must also be raised and limited by the space of the legs of the passenger on the second stationary seat 3.
When the rear row is full of three passengers, the seat cushion of the first stationary seat 2 is not movable at this time, the variable seat 1 can be moved only a small amount simply forward and backward, and the posture of the variable seat 1 is adjusted by the up-down lifting function of the lifter 7 and the seat posture adjusting function of itself to improve comfort.
In order to ensure safety, the belt of the variable seat 1 must be of a properly increased length so that the belt will still function properly when the variable seat 1 is deformed into a recliner. When the supporting component and the lifting plate of the trapezoid cabinet are not used, the safety belt on the first fixed seat 2 can be inserted under the seat cushion of the variable seat 1 or under the front part of the first guide rail 6 (as shown in fig. 4), and passengers on the variable seat 1 can be prevented from rolling off the seat when braking, so that safety is improved.
As can be seen from the above description, the variable seat 1 may be disposed not only on the rear row side but also in the middle position of the rear row, as long as the position of the variable seat 1 is moved, so that the variable seat 1 obtains enough space to be unfolded into the reclining chair state, and the description thereof is omitted.
While the invention has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, it will be apparent that the specific design of the invention is not limited by the foregoing, but it is within the scope of the invention to apply the inventive concept and technical scheme directly to other occasions without any substantial improvement or improvement.
