[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a state in which a seat in the front of a luggage compartment can be extended forward by standing up and storing a seat in the front of a luggage compartment along the back of the front compartment seat, and the seat in front of the luggage compartment is used. Also, the present invention relates to a separator-equipped vehicle seat capable of partitioning a passenger compartment and a luggage compartment in any of the storage states.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a van-type vehicle, as shown in FIG. 7, a seat back 61 can be tilted forward along a seat cushion 60 in front of a luggage compartment, and a front side supporting the seat cushion 60 is provided. The lower end of the support leg 62 is rotatably supported on the vehicle cabin floor 3 so as to be rotatable forward, and the seat back 61 is
The seat cushion 60 is erected and pivoted forward about the lower end of the support leg 62 in a state in which the vehicle is tilted forward, and is folded and stored behind the driver seat 1A and the passenger seat 1B to expand the luggage compartment forward. Some of them have a seat 6 that can be used.

In this type of vehicle, as shown in FIG. 7 (A), when the seat 6 is put into a useable state in which the seat 6 can be seated, a space between both side walls of the passenger compartment is hung above the rear of the seat 6. In some cases, a separator 7 is provided to separate the cabin from the luggage compartment to prevent luggage from entering the cabin and to protect occupants. The left and right ends of the separator 7 are detachably locked and fixed to locking members 8A provided on the left and right pillars P1 behind the sheet 6, respectively. On the other hand, as shown in FIG.
When the seat 6 is folded and stored and the luggage compartment is expanded forward, the separator 7 is moved to the pillar P2 behind the driver seat 1A and the passenger seat 1B, and is attached to and detached from the locking member 8B provided on the seat P1. It is locked and fixed as much as possible to partition the front compartment and the expanded luggage compartment to protect the driver seat 1A and the passenger seat 1B. However,
In this conventional structure, the separator 7 must be replaced between a case where the seat 6 is put into a useable state in which the seat 6 can be seated and a case where the seat 6 is stored and the luggage compartment is expanded, which is troublesome.

In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-53301, as shown in FIG. 8, the seat cushion 90 is lowered rearward of the front seat 1 with the seat back 91 flush with the seat cushion 90. A separator / combination sheet 9 is disclosed, which is raised and rotated immediately after 1 and accommodated to expand the luggage compartment and to separate the front compartment from the luggage compartment. In this case, the luggage compartment floor is generally lower than the front compartment in order to increase the storage space for luggage. Therefore, even if the seat cushion 90 and the seat back 91 are erected, the upper end of the luggage compartment is at most the front seat 1. It only reaches the upper edge of the seat back, and it is not possible to prevent the load from slipping from above the seat back to the front compartment.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a seat installed in front of a luggage compartment, which is used for normal use and when the luggage compartment is expanded. An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle seat with a separator that prevents a load from falling from above a seat back from a partition.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a seat provided in front of a luggage compartment of a vehicle is provided so that a seat back can be lowered and a front end of a seat cushion can be rotated forward so that the seat cushion stands up. In the luggage compartment floor,
The seat back is provided with a separator having substantially the same width and projecting upward from the upper edge thereof. When the seat is stored, the front car compartment and the luggage compartment are separated by a seat cushion that stands upright, a seat back that is lowered so as to be almost flush with the seat cushion, and a separator that is attached to the seat back. A partition higher than the upper edge of the seat back of the seat in the front compartment is configured (claim 1). When the seat is in a use state in which the seat can be seated and when the seat is in a stowed state, it is possible to prevent the seat and the seat in the front compartment from being displaced from above.

[0007] A headrest is attached to the separator at a position corresponding to the seating position of the seat. Since the headrest is supported by the separator, there is no need for a dedicated support leg for supporting the headrest.
