Description of the Related Art In a freight vehicle, a pallet (referred to as a self-contained pallet) containing goods before delivery is accommodated in a luggage compartment body, that is, in a luggage compartment, and is delivered. At the time of delivery, the collected pallets (called empty pallets) are sequentially stored in the empty space after carrying out the personal pallets. And
For example, when the personal pallet is reduced to about half, the rearrangement of the personal pallet and the empty pallet is performed. That is, the personal pallet accommodated in the back of the luggage compartment main body is moved to the luggage doorway side, and the empty pallet is moved to the back in the luggage compartment main body.

[0003]

As described above, in the work of rearranging the personal pallet and the empty pallet, the personal pallet is heavy and the friction with the floor surface is large. There has been a problem that a great deal of labor is required for the movement, and the number of work steps is also required. Even if the rearrangement work is not performed, a large amount of labor is required to move the heavy self-contained pallet accommodated in the back of the luggage compartment body toward the luggage doorway, which requires a lot of man-hours.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to reduce the labor required for moving the luggage housed in the luggage compartment main body. An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle luggage compartment structure capable of reducing the number of work steps.

[0005]

The above object can be attained by a vehicle luggage compartment having a structure described in the claims. According to the luggage compartment structure of the vehicle, when the link is in the inclined position, the luggage placing surface of the luggage placing stand is substantially flush with the floor surface of the luggage compartment body or at a lower position. Located in. At this time, the luggage mounting table and the slider are moved to the back of the luggage compartment main body. In addition, the luggage stored in the back of the luggage compartment main body is placed on the floor surface while straddling the luggage placement surface. When the luggage placing surface is substantially flush with the floor surface, the luggage is placed on the floor surface and the luggage placing surface. Then, when the slider is pulled toward the luggage entrance by the pulling means, as the slider and the luggage mounting table move along the rail, the abutting portion of the luggage mounting table abuts on the luggage, and the luggage storage table and the luggage Relative movement is regulated. Then, the relative movement of the slider with respect to the luggage mounting table causes the luggage mounting table to move upward as the link is rotated to the upright posture. Thus, the load is lifted above the floor surface by the load placing surface of the load placing table. Thereafter, the luggage placing table that lifted the luggage is moved toward the luggage entrance with the slider, so that the luggage is moved to the luggage entrance. Therefore, according to the above configuration, the luggage stored in the back of the luggage compartment main body can be easily moved to the luggage doorway. For this reason, it is possible to reduce the labor required for moving the luggage stored in the luggage compartment main body and to reduce the number of work steps.

7 is pulled through the respective pulleys 20, 21, 22 and, consequently, the slider 7 is pulled toward the luggage port 2b.

Then, as the slider 7 and the load table 13 move along the rail 6, the load table 13
Abuts against the load L on the front end side, and the relative movement between the load table 13 and the load L is restricted (see FIG. 2).
Then, the slider 7 relatively moves with respect to the luggage mounting table 13, and as shown in FIG. 3, the luggage mounting table 13 moves upward as the link 10 is turned to the upright posture. Thereby, the luggage mounting surface 13a of the luggage mounting table 13
As a result, the load L is lifted above the floor surface F (see a two-dot chain line L in FIG. 4). Thereafter, the luggage placing table 13 having lifted the luggage L is moved together with the slider 7 toward the luggage entrance 2b (see FIG. 1), whereby the luggage L is moved to the luggage entrance 2b side.

According to the above-described luggage compartment structure of the vehicle 1, the luggage L accommodated in the back of the luggage compartment main body 2 (see FIG. 1) can be easily moved to the luggage slot 2b. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the labor required for moving the load L accommodated in the luggage compartment main body 2 and to reduce the number of work steps.

For example, as shown in a perspective view in FIG. 7, an electric winch capable of winding and rewinding a terminal portion of the cable 17 is provided on a wall surface of the luggage compartment main body 2, particularly on an upper end portion of the luggage port 2b. 19 can be equipped. This makes it possible to automate the pulling or winding of the cable 17. The rewinding of the cable 17 can be performed manually.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but can be modified without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, the number of the luggage moving devices 5 can be appropriately changed. In addition, instead of the cable 17, a rack-and-pinion mechanism using an electric motor as a driving source may be used as the pulling unit.
