DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle rear seat whose layout can be freely changed without being affected by a wheel house.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, with the development of outdoor sports and the like, automobiles have been used for various purposes. For example, a rear seat is moved to a rear portion of the vehicle to secure a sufficient space for throwing legs. There is a demand for a vehicular rear seat that can freely change the layout of the rear seat according to the purpose of use, such as reclining in a flat state to replace a bed, and various seat structures corresponding to the demand have been proposed.

[0003] However, a wheel house of tires protrudes into the vehicle at the rear of the vehicle, and this wheel house hinders the rear seats from being moved to the rear side as it is. Was imposed. As a result, there has been a problem that the rear seat cannot be moved to the rear of the vehicle as much as possible or the rear seat cannot be completely flat.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a rear seat for a vehicle in which the layout of the seat can be freely changed without being affected by a wheel house. It was completed for the purpose.

[0005]

A vehicle rear seat according to the present invention made to solve the above-mentioned problem is a vehicle rear seat in which a right seat and a left seat are disposed on the left and right sides of a center seat, respectively. The center sheet is slidable so as to be installed alone in the front position, while the left and right sheets are slidable so as to be installed in the rear position with the side surfaces joined. It is assumed that.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The drawings show an automobile seat in which a front seat on the driver's seat side and a passenger seat side and a rear seat for three persons are arranged. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a center seat in the rear seat, and 2 and 3 denote the center seat 1. The right seat 2 and the left seat 3 are always arranged on the left and right sides of the seat, and the seats 1, 2, and 3 are seat cushions 1a, 2a, 3a and seat back 1b,
2b and 3b. In the drawings, reference numeral 4 denotes a driver's seat front seat including a seat cushion 4a and a seat back 4b, reference numeral 5 denotes a front passenger seat including a seat cushion 5a and a seat back 5b, and reference numerals 10 and 10 denote left and right wheel houses. It is.

In the present invention, the center sheet 1 is slidably movable so as to be installed alone at the front position, while the left and right sheets 2, 3 are moved to the rear position with their side portions joined together. It is characterized by being slidable so that it can be installed. With such a configuration, the left and right sheets 2 and 3 are moved so as to be installed at a substantially central position between the left and right wheel houses 10 and 10 without being affected by the wheel houses 10 and 10 in a state where the side surfaces are joined to each other. You can freely change the layout of the sheet. The width of the center seat 1 is larger than the total length of the left and right wheel houses 10, 10 projecting into the vehicle. Note that the center seat 1 and the left and right seats 2 and 3 can be moved and fixedly held by a well-known guide rail system or any other mechanism used for moving a normal vehicle seat.

Next, an example of changing the sheet layout will be described. FIG. 1 shows a standard state where two persons are arranged on the front seat and three persons are arranged on the rear seat. In order to obtain a layout that secures enough space for the legs to be thrown toward the rear seat from this state, the center seat 1 is slid forward (in the direction of the arrow) as shown in FIG. As shown, the left and right seats 2, 3 may be slid rearward with the side portions joined together. At this time, since the entire width of the left and right sheets 2 and 3 joined to each other is reduced by the width of the center sheet 1, the right and left wheel houses 10 and 10 do not collide with each other even if they slide backward. . As a result, the left and right seats 2, 3 can be moved to the rear end of the largest vehicle, and a sufficient space for extending the legs can be secured.

As shown in FIG. 4, the left and right seats 2, 3 are slid rearward in a straight line or curvedly obliquely rearward while avoiding the wheel house 10, as shown in FIG. You can also. Also, as shown in FIG. 5, the center seat 1 is slid forward and the left and right seats 2, 3 are joined to each other so that all the seat backs of the front seat and the rear seat are in a horizontal position. If you recline, you can have a completely flat bed with all seats.

[0010]

As is apparent from the above description, the present invention can freely change the layout of the seat without being affected by the wheel house. Therefore, the present invention greatly contributes to industrial development as a vehicle rear seat that has eliminated the conventional problems.
