Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <<Industrial Application Fields>> The present invention relates to a loading platform device for a vehicle, which is equipped with a wide loading platform like a van or wagon, and has a rear hatch opened to load cargo.

《Background of the idea》 Generally, when loading a relatively heavy load into a van or wagon, the load is first placed in front of the luggage floor, as the loading platform is wide.
Next, I try to push it towards the back. However, during this pushing operation, frictional force is applied between the luggage floor and the luggage, necessitating a large operating force.

Further, when pulling out luggage from the back of the cargo platform, a large operating force is required due to the frictional force between the luggage floor and the cargo.

<<Purpose of the invention>> Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a loading platform device for an automobile that can easily load and unload cargo to the back of the loading platform.

<Configuration of the Invention> In other words, the automobile cargo platform device of the present invention includes at least a pair of rollers arranged in parallel in the front and back direction and each rotatably supported by a holder stored in the luggage floor, and a roller that is hung between these rollers. The vehicle is equipped with an endless belt and a locking member that engages with a portion of the endless belt to lock the running of the endless belt, and the locking member is connected to a notch formed at the rear of the luggage floor. a locking portion disposed between the holder and facing into the luggage floor from the notch recess and press-contacting the endless belt via a frictional engagement member; and a puller integrally formed with the locking portion. a link having an elongated hole into which an engaging pin provided in the locking part is inserted, the link being pivotally connected to the luggage floor, and a link extending between the pivoting end of the link and the luggage floor. The invention is characterized in that the front and rear portions of the locking portion come into contact with the endless belt and the opening/closing lid, respectively, when the opening/closing lid of the hatch is closed.

<<Description of Embodiment>> FIG. 1 is a partially omitted perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention.

The cargo platform device in this embodiment is installed in a van-type automobile, and includes a plurality of rollers 2 arranged on the luggage floor 1, an endless belt 3 stretched around these rollers 2, and this endless belt. 3 lock members 4.

As shown in FIG. 2, the luggage floor 1 is formed with a rectangular storage recess 1a, in which a holder 5 to which the roller 2 is attached is arranged.

This holder 5 has bent portions 5b facing each other on both sides of a rectangular flat plate portion 5a, and an outward flange portion 5c continuous with each bent portion 5b at the rear end.

Screw holes 6 are formed in the bent portion 5b at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction, and these screw holes 6
A set screw 7 is screwed in from the outside.

Further, each of the rollers 2 is formed into a rod shape, and engagement holes 2a into which the tips of the setscrews 7 are inserted are formed at both ends.

These rollers 2 are arranged between the bent portions 5b of the holder 5 with the endless belt 3 wound around them, and the tips of the setscrews 7 are inserted into the engagement holes 2a at both ends. They are each rotatably supported by this holder 5. Each roller 2 mounted in this way is arranged in parallel to the front of the motor vehicle.

Further, the endless belt 3 is made of, for example, synthetic resin, and is flexible in the loop direction and has constant rigidity in the width direction. This endless belt 3 is stretched around each roller 2, and
It is long enough to not loosen, and in this state,
The portions extending over the upper and lower surfaces of each roller 2 are held substantially flat.

Further, the lock member 4 is connected to the luggage floor 1.
The holder 5 is arranged between a notch recess 1b formed at the rear of the holder 5 and a flange 5c of the holder 5. As shown in FIG. 3, this locking member 4 is formed with a locking portion 4a that faces into the storage recess 1a from the notch recess 1b. This locking portion 4a is in pressure contact with the endless belt 3 to lock its running, and is formed in a concave shape with a curvature corresponding to the winding shape of the endless belt 3, and has a sufficient pressure contact surface. A friction engagement member 8 such as friction rubber is provided to obtain friction force.

This locking member 4 is arranged so as to be slidable back and forth between the notch recess 1b and the flange 5c, and can be slid forward and backward by operating the puller 4b.
As shown in FIG. 4, it is moved rearward and separated from the endless belt 3.

Further, the rear part of the locking member 4 is such that a part thereof comes into contact when the hatch 9 is closed.
By being pressed by this hatch 9, the locking portion 4
a is in pressure contact with the endless belt 3.

Further, a mechanism is provided between the lock member 4 and the luggage floor 1 to more reliably and easily move the locking portion 4a toward and away from the endless belt 3.

This mechanism includes a link 10 that is rotatably supported on a luggage floor 1 and has a long hole 10a into which an engagement pin 4c provided on the locking member 4 is inserted, and a pivot end of this link 10 and a luggage compartment. It consists of a coil spring 11 adjusted between the floor 1 and the floor 1.

According to this mechanism, when the locking portion 4a is in contact with the endless belt 3 (the state shown in FIG. 3), the link 10 is rotationally biased toward the endless belt 3 by the coil spring 11, and this bias is applied. The locking portion 4a is brought into pressure contact with the endless belt 3 due to the force. Further, the locking portion 4a
In the state in which the lock member 4 is retracted rearward (the state shown in FIG. 4), the link 10 is biased rearward by the coil spring 11, and this biasing force reliably holds the lock member 4 in the retracted position.

According to the loading platform device constructed as described above, the endless belt 3 runs along the outer periphery of each roller 2 in a state in which the endless belt 3 is unlocked by the locking member 4. Therefore, when loading luggage onto the loading platform, the luggage can be easily moved and stored at the back of the loading platform by placing the luggage on the endless belt 3 in front and pushing it. When the running of the endless belt 3 is locked by direct operation of the locking member 4 or by opening and closing the hatch 9, the load is held in the storage position by the frictional force with the endless belt 3.

Moreover, when unloading the luggage, the lock may be released again and the luggage can be easily pulled out from the back of the loading platform toward the front.

<<Effects of the invention>> According to the invention, loaded luggage can be easily moved back and forth by the endless belt and rollers arranged on the luggage floor. Therefore, when loading baggage, it is possible to easily push the baggage placed at the front to the back, and when unloading the baggage, it is also possible to easily pull out the baggage stored at the back to the front. be.

Furthermore, by locking the endless belt with a locking member, the movement of the baggage placed there can be prevented.
Luggage will not be moved due to sudden stops while driving.

Further, in the present invention, the locking member is arranged between the notch recess formed at the rear of the luggage floor and the holder, and the rear of the locking part is configured to come into contact with the opening/closing lid of the hatch when the lid is closed. Because
During travel, this locking portion reliably presses against the endless belt and completely prevents the cargo from moving.
