Abstract

L'invention porte sur un agencement de couchette ou compartiment-couchette pour un conducteur et/ou un co-conducteur d'un véhicule, tel qu'un camion ou un bus. L'agencement de couchette pourvu d'un lit de bord (10) est divisé sur sa longueur en une première et une seconde partie (111, 112), ces parties étant raccordées l'une à l'autre par un pivot ou articulation à rotule (113) de manière que la seconde partie (112, 132) puisse être pliée entre une position verticale par rapport à la première partie (111) et une position horizontale se trouvant sensiblement dans un plan qui est commun à celui de la première partie (111). On obtient ainsi une plus grande souplesse d'utilisation, et l'espace disponible dans la cabine du véhicule peut être utilisé plus efficacement. L'invention porte également sur une cabine de véhicule comprenant cet agencement de couchette ou compartiment-couchette.
