DE10107265A1 - Passenger protection and baggage securing device has rear seat bank backrest divided in dividing plane, with one part able to be folded for extra baggage space - Google Patents

Abstract

The protection and securing device is in a car in which at least the rear seat bank backrest is divided in a dividing plane (1), with one part able to provide extra baggage space (2), while the other part remains as it is. A dividing wall (9) can be fitted in the dividing plane between the extra baggage space and the part seat region (4).

Description

The invention relates to a device for passenger protection and load securing in a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.

In a generic known device between a cargo space and a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle (WO 98/32635) is an in Carrier roller lying in the transverse direction of the vehicle is attached in the region of a seat back which can be rolled up to the roof area which can be pulled out and fixed there.

Such a roller blind has the function of a protective wall against the passenger compartment pushing and hurling cargo with strong delays, like them in particular in the event of a frontal impact of the vehicle.

There is also a load securing device on a foldable rear seat backrest (EP 0 849 119 A1) known, the larger displacement by means of a fold-out bracket Loads prevented. Proper functioning is only guaranteed for one Bracket size suitable cargo.

Furthermore, a protective device is known, which as a mountable network between two individual seats (EP 0 288 386 A1). This will prevent the Loads prevented in the event of severe delays between the individual seats.

All the above guards, blinds and nets between the passenger compartment and the hold of a motor vehicle have the disadvantage that they have their Protective function only with forces acting in the direction of travel, such as those with strong ones Delays or in the event of a frontal impact of the vehicle apply bring. Many vehicles are now with separately foldable backrests Rear bench seat equipped. With a partial increase in the loading space Folding down a backrest part is all the devices mentioned for the remaining one Partial seating area without benefit. This is the case with driving maneuvers, evasive situations or Accidents that lead to lateral accelerations of the vehicle endanger the  the remaining seated part of the passenger seated in the enlarged Loading space cannot be ruled out.

The object of the invention is to provide a device for passenger protection and To create cargo securing in a motor vehicle in which the occupant protection and the cargo securing between an enlarged cargo space and a Partial seating area is improved with lateral accelerations.

This object is achieved with the features of claim 1.

According to claim 1, the attachment in the vehicle longitudinal direction is one in use erectable partition in the parting plane of the rear bench seat. So that will advantageously a protective effect of the person sitting on the remaining partial seating area Passenger in front of moving cargo in case of occurring Lateral accelerations reached. The use case is for an increase in the loading space by partially folding the backrest, leaving a partial seating area the rear bench seat. The partition can be stowed away when not in use.

If the partition is made of a flexible material, the rear one vertical partition edge on the standing backrest part and the lower horizontal Partition edge on the folded back part and / or on the foldable Fixed seat part associated with backrest.

A partition corner that is opposite the two partition edges can be by means of a tensioning device can be attached to the front seat. Alternatively or in addition a further fixation on the body side or on the lower shell of an installed Be seat part available.

The device can be designed to be completely removable, so that it can be removed Can not be stowed in another place.

If the partition is designed as a longitudinal cassette, this is Already installed to form partition walls and is erected in use. The The partition can be rolled up in a roller cassette or foldable his. The longitudinal cassette serves as the storage location of the when not in use Partition wall.  

As a further variant, the partition can also be made of rigid material. There is a wall or frame construction on the back of the folded Backrest part assembled, which can be folded and fixed in use. The fixation can by a detachable locking device on the folded back part and / or on not folded back part.

The invention is explained in more detail with reference to a drawing.

Show it:

Fig. 1 is a schematic view of the rear area of a motor vehicle with a first embodiment of a partition made of flexible material

Fig. 2 is a schematic view of a partition of flexible material, which is designed as a cassette mounted on the folded-back portion,

Fig. 3 is a schematic view of a partition made of flexible material, which is designed as a cassette mounted on the unfolded backrest part, and

Fig. 4 is a schematic view of a rigid partition.

The illustration of FIG. 1 shows the rear region of a motor vehicle 13 with a view toward the rear seats, wherein an enlarged loading space 2 created by the folding down of the backrest part 3. In the parting plane 1 , a stowable, removable partition 9 is shown as a mesh version. The fixation takes place via releasable fastening means on the two partition wall edges 6 , 7 . The partition wall corner 8 opposite the two partition edges 6 , 7 can be fixed by means of a tensioning device on the front seat, on the body side or on the lower shell of a seat part which has been set up, but this is not shown here.

Fig. 2 shows the partition 11 as a rollable or unfoldable version that can be stowed in an assembled longitudinal cassette 10 . The longitudinal cassette 10 is mounted on the folded backrest part 3 and forms the lower horizontal partition edge 6 . A releasable fixation is formed on the non-folded back part 5 . The fastening of the partition wall corner 8 opposite the two partition wall edges 6 , 7 is possible analogously to the embodiment according to FIG. 1. The direction of blind or unfolding of the partition 11 takes place in the vertical direction of the vehicle.

In Fig. 3, an embodiment is shown with a mounted at the non-folded back part 5 longitudinal cassette 10. The longitudinal cassette 10 forms the lower vertical partition edge 7 . A releasable fixation is formed on the folded backrest part 3 . The attachment of the two edges of the partition wall 6, 7 opposite corner partition wall 8 corresponds to that shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2. The roller blind or Auffaltrichtung the partition wall 11 takes place here in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

FIG. 4 shows a partition made of rigid material 12 designed as a wall or frame construction. The partition wall 12 is fastened in the partition wall edge 6 in a foldable manner to the folded back part 3 and can be fixed in the use position by means of a locking and / or securing function. Another detachable attachment to the unfolded backrest part 5 is possible.
