Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement in a rotating seat for a vehicle having two or more rows of seats in the rear passenger seats behind the front seats of the vehicle.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

As this type of rotating seat, for example, the one shown in FIG. 15 is known.
That is, in a cab-over type wagon vehicle, three rows of seats, ie, a front seat 2, a center seat 3, and a rear seat 4, are arranged in the vehicle body 1, and the auxiliary seat 5 of the center seat 3 is a foldable type, as shown in Fig. 16. It is folded as shown to form a passageway for getting on and off from the getting on/off step 6 to the rear seat 4. In addition, the center seat 3 for two people is
It rotates 180 degrees around the rotation axis 7 so that it can sit opposite the rear seat 4.

However, in such conventional rotating seats, the center seat 3 seats three people, the space between the vehicle body 1 and the center seat 3 in the lateral direction is narrow, and there is also a step 6 for getting on and off. Because the structure required an aisle, it was difficult to rotate the entire three-seater center seat 3 to create a seat-to-seat configuration.If the center seat 3 was rotated around a single axis, the foldable auxiliary seat 5 would be on the side opposite to the step, making it difficult to get on board. There was an inconvenience that the passageway was not secure and in the end only two people could sit together.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the auxiliary seat 8 is also rotatably supported so that it can rotate independently, or the seat 9 is supported as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20. A structure was developed in which the seat 10a on the side opposite to the step is divided into three parts, and the seat 10a on the side opposite to the step has an independent rotating structure, and the seat 10b in the middle and the seat 10c on the step side can be rotated as a unit and can be slid laterally.

However, in these cases, two rotation mechanisms are required, making the structure complex, and
The one shown in FIG. 19 has the drawback of poor operability since it is necessary to perform a sliding operation each time the seats 9 are placed facing each other.

[Purpose of invention]

This invention was made with attention to the above circumstances,
The purpose is to provide a rotary seat for a vehicle that allows a three-person seat to be seated opposite the rear seat with a simple mechanism and operation.

[Summary of the idea]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, this invention is a three-person seat that has a foldable auxiliary seat at the entrance/exit step of the vehicle.The seat is divided into three parts, and the auxiliary seat can be folded on each side of the central seat. The central seat is rotatably supported.

[Example of idea]

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 10. Note that the same parts as those shown in FIGS. 15 to 20 are given the same numbers, and the explanation thereof will be omitted. In the figure, 11 is a rotary seat for three people provided in the center row of the vehicle 1, and this rotatable seat 11 is divided into three parts: a first auxiliary seat 12, a center seat 13, and a second auxiliary seat 14. has been done. The first and second auxiliary seats 12, 14
are foldably attached to both sides of the center seat 13. As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the center seat 13 is rotatably and slidably attached to the floor 15. That is,
In the figure, 16 is a turntable, and a pair of guide rails 17, 1 are provided on the upper surface of the turntable 16.
7 are arranged. An attachment plate 19 is slidably attached to the guide rails 17, 17 via receiving members 18, 18. The central seat 13 is attached to the center of this mounting plate 19, and the first and second auxiliary seats 12, 14 are attached to the mounting brackets 20, 21,
22 and a spring 23 so as to be foldable. Further, reference numeral 24 in the figure indicates a seat in the rear row, and this seat 24 is constructed in the same manner as the seat 11 in the center row.

Therefore, seat 11 in the center row is replaced by seat 2 in the rear row.
4, firstly, the first and second
The auxiliary seats 12 and 14 of the vehicle are folded as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, respectively, and then the tartable 16 is rotated 180 degrees so as to be seated opposite to the rear seat 24 as shown in FIG. and,
By rotating and unfolding the first and second auxiliary seats 12 and 14, the seat can be used as a split seat for three people, as shown in FIG.

According to this embodiment, since only the center seat 13 is rotatably supported, only one rotation mechanism is required, and the structure can be simplified and the weight can be reduced.

Furthermore, since the first and second auxiliary seats 12 and 14 are each foldably attached, it can also be used for a five-door vehicle.

Furthermore, since the first and second auxiliary seats 12 and 14 are folded and rotated, the rotation radius r of the seats can be reduced as shown in FIG. It can be expanded in the same way, and there is no gap between it and the vehicle body 11 when it is laid flat as shown in FIG.

Note that FIGS. 10a to 10h show various variations of the seat.

In addition, in the case of a vehicle equipped with four rows of seats as shown in FIGS. 11 to 14, for example, a tire house 3
It is also possible to install the seat 31 in a place where there are seats 2 and 32.

Furthermore, even when the seats 31 are facing each other as shown in FIG. 14, the passageway can be sufficiently secured as shown by the arrows. This seat 31 is also constructed in the same manner as the seat 11 in the center row and the seat 24 in the rear row.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, but can be modified in various ways within the scope of the invention.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the present invention, three-person seats can be rotated to face each other using a single rotating mechanism, and the structure can be significantly simplified.
It also has excellent operability for sitting face-to-face. Moreover, the width of the three-person seat can be made the same as the width of the inside of the vehicle, and the width of the seat can be increased. .
Furthermore, when the auxiliary seat is folded, it can also be used as an armrest.
