Description

  The present invention relates to a luggage compartment structure of a vehicle including a rear seat capable of turning a seat back forward and a luggage compartment provided at the rear of the rear seat and having a sweep-out opening at the rear. In particular, when the rear seat seatback is turned forward to expand the loading space, the loading space formed with the flat loading surface and the height to the loading floor are low, and a discharge type opening is formed. The present invention relates to a loading space structure of a vehicle that can realize the loading space.

  Among vehicles such as automobiles, there are known vehicles provided with a luggage compartment at the rear of the vehicle (rear of the rear seat). In such a vehicle, in order to secure a loading space for luggage, the seatback of the rear seat can be advanced forward, the rear seat can be folded forward to fold the rear seat, and the loading space can be expanded. A structure is often adopted (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  For example, Patent Document 1 (see FIGS. 1 and 2) describes a luggage compartment structure in which a deck board is disposed behind a rear seat, and a floor portion of the luggage compartment is configured by the deck board. In the cargo compartment structure described in Patent Document 1, when the seatback of the rear seat is turned forward, the deckboard is supported so that the back surface of the seatback and the surface of the deckboard have substantially the same height. The back of the deck and the surface of the deck board are configured to be flat. Also, a storage box is disposed in the space under the deck board, and the deck board functions as a lid of the storage box. Thus, by arranging the deck board to match the height of the back of the seatback of the rear seat that has been turned forward, a flat loading surface can be formed by the back of the seatback and the surface of the deckboard. It realizes a cargo room with a flat loading surface formed from the back of the back to the rear end of the deck board. Such a luggage compartment can slide in and out the luggage from the rear opening of the luggage compartment to the loading surface even with a long luggage, and can smoothly carry in and out the luggage. Further, in the cargo compartment structure described in Patent Document 1, the lower end of the opening of the cargo compartment is flush with the floor surface (deck board) of the cargo compartment, and there is no step between the floor surface of the cargo compartment and the opening. A sweep-out opening is formed.

  In recent years, more convenient luggage compartments have been required as a demand for automobiles. For example, there is a demand to load the bicycle as it is into the loading space, and in order to facilitate loading and unloading, the floor surface of the loading space should be lowered, and a step between the floor surface of the loading space and the opening should be eliminated. Is desired.

  In the cargo compartment structure described in Patent Document 1, the floor part of the cargo compartment is formed by a deck board, and the deck board is disposed to match the height of the back of the seatback of the rear seat turned forward. Therefore, when the deck board position is lowered and the floor surface of the loading space is lowered, a level difference is formed between the back of the seatback that is turned forward and the floor surface (deck board) of the loading space, and loading is flat. The face is not formed. Therefore, it is conceivable to lower the position of the rear seat itself, for example, to lower the position of the rear floor panel on which the rear seat is installed, in order to lower the position of the deck board and lower the height of the back of the seatback when folded. However, even in this case, there is a limit to lowering the position of the folded seatback, because the lower floor panel can not be secured enough to secure the minimum ground clearance. That is, in the cargo compartment structure described in Patent Document 1, when the floor surface of the cargo compartment is lowered, the back surface of the seatback which is turned forward does not become flat with the floor surface of the cargo compartment. It is difficult to lower the floor of the luggage compartment while keeping the back of the seat back and the floor of the luggage compartment flat. Therefore, the cargo compartment structure described in Patent Document 1 assumes that the back surface of the seatback and the floor surface of the cargo compartment are flat to form a cargo compartment having a flat loading surface, and the floor of the cargo compartment It is difficult to form a luggage compartment with a low floor, flush-type opening with a low surface.

  One of the objects of the present invention is to expand the loading space by folding the seat back of the rear seat forward, and the height to the loading space where the flat loading surface is formed and the floor surface of the loading space is low, It is an object of the present invention to provide a loading space structure of a vehicle that can realize a loading space in which a discharge type opening is formed.

  (1) A loading space structure of a vehicle according to an aspect of the present invention includes a rear seat capable of turning a seat back forward, and a loading space provided behind the rear seat and having a sweep-out opening at the rear. And. The cargo compartment structure of the vehicle is provided between a deck board disposed behind the rear seat, the seat back of the rear seat and the luggage compartment, and a hinge rotatably supporting the deck board back and forth. And a unit. The deck board is supported at an interval between a front rotation state of being put on the back surface of the seatback that is turned forward and a floor surface of the luggage compartment, and is turned forward. And a rearward pivoting state substantially along the back surface of the seat back.

  According to the loading space structure of the vehicle, the deck board is rotatably supported back and forth by the hinge portion provided between the seat back of the rear seat and the loading space, and the deck board is in the forward rotation state and the rear And a rotational state. The forward pivoting state is a state in which the deck board is pivoted forward so that the deck board can be placed on the back surface of the seatback that is turned forward, and the rearward pivoting state is a sheet that is turned forward The deck board is in a state of being rotated rearward so as to be substantially along the back of the back. That is, in the forward rotation state, the deck board is inverted, and the deck board is placed on the back surface of the seatback that has been turned forward. Further, in this state, the deck board is placed on the back surface of the seat back located in front of the luggage compartment, and the floor surface of the luggage compartment is opened. On the other hand, in the backward rotation state, the deck board is positioned above the floor surface of the loading space, and the deck board is supported substantially along the back surface of the seatback which has been turned forward. Therefore, when the seatback of the rear seat is turned forward to expand the loading space, the deck board is turned backward, whereby a flat loading surface is formed by the back of the seatback and the surface of the deckboard. A cargo room can be realized. On the other hand, when the deck board is turned forward, the floor surface of the loading space is opened, and the height to the floor surface of the loading space is low, so that the loading space in which the discharge type opening is formed can be realized. Therefore, the load room structure of the above-mentioned vehicle supports the deck board rotatably back and forth, and rotates the deck board back and forth to open the discharge type opening with the load room having the flat loading surface and the low floor. It can form two types of luggage compartments.

Here, the backward rotation state in which the deck board 4 is disposed behind the rear seat 2 is taken as the reference state of the deck board 4. In this example, a hinge 40 is provided at a position corresponding to the upper surface rear end of the raising member 12, the hinge 40 is attached to the front end of the deck board 4, and the deck board 4 uses the hinge 40 as a fulcrum. Rotate. In the backward pivoting state, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the deck board 4 is located above the floor surface 32, and the deck board 4 is supported at a distance from the floor surface 32, and the front Substantially along the back surface 23 of the seatback 22 that has been turned down. Specifically, when the deck board 4 is in the backward rotation state, the deck board 4 is supported so that the front surface 41 thereof is approximately at the same height as the back surface of the seatback 22 (upper surface of the raising member 12) The front surface 41 of the deck board 4 and the back surface 23 of the seatback 22 are configured to be substantially flat. Moreover, the space formed between the deck board 4 and the floor 32 can be used as a storage space for luggage. On the other hand, in the forward rotation state, as shown in FIG. 3, the deck board 4 is inverted and placed on the back surface 23 of the seatback 22 that has been turned forward. In this forward pivoting state, the deck board 4 is moved to the front of the loading space 3, so that the upper side of the floor surface 32 of the loading space 3 is opened.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4, the deck board 4 can be turned upward and turned upward, and when the rear seat 2 is used as a seat, the deck board 4 can be supported on the seat back 22. Is also possible. Even in the upward turning state, the upper side of the floor surface 32 of the loading chamber 3 is in the open state.

  The deck board 4 is a flat member and is formed of, for example, a resin such as polypropylene (PP). And, in this example, when the deck board 4 is in the backward rotation state, the deck board 4 is supported so as to be substantially horizontal. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, a projecting portion 36 is formed to project to the indoor side from the left and right side walls 35 constituting the luggage compartment 3 (see also FIG. 1). The deck board 4 is supported by the side edges of 4 being placed. The projecting portion 36 is formed such that the surface of the deck board 4 has substantially the same height as the back surface 23 of the seat back 22 when the deck board 4 is placed. Then, when the deck board 4 is in the backward rotation state, as shown in FIG. 5, the loading space 3 is divided into two vertically by the deck board 4, and is formed between the deck board 4 and the floor surface 32.

This sheet 45 can be extended forward by removing the other end of the sheet 45 from the deck board 4 as shown in FIG. 3, for example, when the deck board 4 is in the forward rotation state. Thus, the sheet 45 can be covered so as to cover the remaining portion of the seat back 22 not covered by the deck board 4.

{Effects and effects}
The loading space structure of the vehicle according to the first embodiment described above exerts the following effects.

  When the rear seat 2 is used as a seat, when the deck board 4 is in the backward rotation state, as shown in FIG. 1, the space formed between the deck board 4 and the floor 32 is a storage space for luggage. It can be used as Further, since this space is open at the rear, luggage can be taken in and out from the rear opening of the luggage compartment 3 without lifting the deck board 4. In this space, for example, rags, tools, short luggage, etc. may be stored.

  When the deck board 4 is turned rearward and the seatback 22 of the rear seat 2 is turned forward to expand the loading space, as shown in FIG. 2, the rear face 23 of the rear seat 22 turned forward, and the bulk The flat loading surface is configured by the upper surface of the material 12 and the surface 41 of the deck board 4, and the loading space 3 in which the flat loading surface is formed can be realized. The flat cargo room 3 shown in FIG. 2 can slide in the luggage from the rear opening of the cargo room 3 to the loading surface and can be pulled out and out smoothly when loading a long luggage Can.

  When the deck board 4 is pivoted (reversed) forward and the deck board 4 is changed from the backward pivoting state to the forward pivoting state, as shown in FIG. 3, on the back surface 23 of the rear seat 22 flipped forward. The deck board 4 is placed on the Further, by turning the deck board 4 forward, the upper side of the floor surface 32 of the loading space 3 is opened. In this forward rotation state, the deck board 4 is reversed, the back surface of the deck board 4 is the loading surface, and the loading surface is configured by the back surface 23 of the rear seat 22, the back surface 42 of the deck board 4, and the floor surface 32. Be done.

  In the conventional luggage compartment structure described in Patent Document 1, the floor of the luggage compartment is constituted by deck boards, and the deck boards are arranged to match the height of the back of the seatback which is turned forward. The On the other hand, in the loading space structure of the first embodiment, since the floor surface 32 is formed at a position lower than the deck board 4, the height to the floor surface 32 of the loading space 3 is higher than that of the conventional loading space structure. Lower. Moreover, in the loading chamber structure of the first embodiment, there is a sweep-out type opening without a step between the floor surface 32 of the loading chamber 3 and the opening.

  When the deck board 4 is in the forward pivoting state, as shown in FIG. 3, the height to the floor surface 32 of the loading space 3 is low, and the loading space 3 in which the sweep-type opening is formed can be realized. The low-floor, flush-out type loading room 3 shown in FIG. 3 has a low height (loading height) to the opening of the loading room, and can easily carry, for example, a bicycle or heavy load. Further, in the forward rotation state, the back surface 42 and the floor surface 32 of the deck board 4 serve as the loading surface, so that the surface 41 of the deck board 4 is not soiled when loading a dirty load. In addition, by extending the seat 45 forward and covering the remaining portion of the seat back 22 not covered by the deck board 4 with the seat 45, the rear seat 2 is prevented from becoming dirty even when loading a long load such as a bicycle it can. Therefore, when the deck board 4 is returned from the forward turning state to the backward turning state, the loading surface constituted by the surface 41 of the deck board 4 can be kept clean and the room can be kept comfortable. .

  In the forward rotation state, a step is formed between the floor surface 32 and the back surface 41 of the deck board 4 placed on the back surface 23 of the seat back 22 and the load does not become a flat loading surface. In the chamber structure, a sloped surface 33 is formed on the front end side of the floor surface 32. When loading a bicycle, for example, the slope surface 33 can easily get over the step formed between the floor surface 32 and the back surface 41 of the deck board 4 so that the loading of the bicycle can be easily performed. it can.

  In addition, when the rear seat 2 is used as a seat, as shown in FIG. 4, the loading space 3 having the low floor and the sweep-type opening can be realized also by rotating the deck board 4 upward, so that luggage Loading and unloading can be done easily.

  As another method of using the sheet 45, for example, the sheet 45 may be pulled out from the rear opening of the luggage compartment 3 when the deck board 4 is in the backward rotation state. Thereby, a member such as the rear bumper 52 can be covered with the seat 45, and when loading a load, damage to the member such as the rear bumper 52 can be suppressed.

  Furthermore, in the luggage compartment structure of the vehicle of the first embodiment, the deck board 4 may be divided into two in the vehicle width direction in accordance with the width of each rear seat 2. As a result, only one of the left and right seat backs 22 of the rear seat 2 is turned forward to expand the loading space, and the deck boards divided into left and right can be individually rotated. Can be made different. That is, different types of cargo compartments can be formed on the left and right of the cargo compartment.

  The present invention is not limited to these exemplifications, is shown by the claims, and is intended to include all modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the claims.

  The luggage compartment structure of the vehicle of the present invention can be suitably used for an automobile provided with a luggage compartment at the rear of the rear seat.
