Based on the discovery, the inventor of the application also carries out the improvement design of adjustable height direction for the van body, and the specific improvement scheme refers to the following.

In an embodiment, the vehicle container is a box-type container, and the box-type container further comprises a top plate 210 and a second driving device 5 which are arranged opposite to the bottom plate 1, and the top plate 210, the side plates and the bottom plate 1 enclose a relatively closed accommodating space for loading goods, so that the goods cannot be exposed in the external environment, the falling and defect conditions of the goods are effectively avoided, and a high-efficiency, high-quality and quick transportation logistics mode is provided. In addition, the top plate 210 is arranged to be capable of moving up and down relative to the bottom plate 1, and the second driving device 5 is used for driving the top plate 210 to move up and down so as to adjust the height of the accommodating space of the vehicle container according to the height of the loaded goods, thereby improving the universality and convenience of the van container; in addition, the height of a vehicle container can be reduced by reducing the top plate 210, and the wind resistance of the whole vehicle is reduced to the maximum extent, so that the oil consumption of the whole vehicle is reduced, the vehicle speed is increased, and the running stability of the whole vehicle is improved.

For example, when the height of the loaded goods is less than the height of the accommodating space, the driver can adaptively lower the position of the top plate 210 through the second driving device 5, so as to avoid the situation that the loaded goods is loaded unstably and overturns or falls due to too large gap between the loaded goods and the top plate 210; alternatively, when the height of the loaded goods is greater than the height of the accommodating space, the driver can adaptively raise the position of the top plate 210 by the second driving device 5 to meet the loading requirement.

Further, referring to fig. 1 to 3, the plurality of side panels may include a first side panel 21 and a second side panel 22, the first side panel 21 may include a first upper side panel 211 and a first lower side panel 212 movably connected to the bottom panel 1, the second side panel 22 may include a second upper side panel 221 and a second lower side panel 222, the vehicle cargo box includes an upper box body 10 and a lower box body 20, the first upper side panel 211, the second upper side panel 221 and the top panel 210 together form the upper box body 10 with an open lower end, and the first lower side panel 212, the second lower side panel 222 and the bottom panel 1 together form the lower box body 20 with an open upper end; one of the upper case 10 and the lower case 20 is vertically movably covered on the other; the first upper side plate 211 is provided to be movable together with the first lower side plate 212 when the first lower side plate 212 moves.
