Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a cross-over facing seat for automobiles.
In general, the seats installed in automobiles have the driver's seat and passenger seat facing the same direction, and passengers sitting in both seats face the same direction, especially towards the front of the car. ing.

Therefore, it is well known that with such a seat mounting method, in the event of a car accident, the passenger in the front passenger seat will suffer more damage than the driver.

In addition, in narrow cars, especially light cars and small cars below 1000 c.c., the driver's seat and passenger seat are close to each other, so when sitting, their shoulders touch each other, making it very cramped and making it difficult to live comfortably. It may also interfere with the driver's driving operations.

As a means to solve this problem, a seat in which the backrest of the passenger seat side faces the backrest of the driver's seat side has been proposed, but in this case, simply having the passenger seat side facing each other does not make the front passenger's seat comfortable for the driver. The backrest on the side impedes visibility on the left side, which may impede driving. Especially in recent years, many cars have been fitted with door mirrors, which have the disadvantage of making it difficult to see.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology.In other words, the backrest of the passenger seat side is made to face the driver's seat side, and the cushion of the passenger seat side is appropriately shifted rearward. The backrest on the passenger seat side is designed so that it does not obstruct the view, and there is also a table that can be stored in the backrest of the driver and passenger side and can be pulled out over the other seat when in use, making it more functional. fulfill the role,
What's more, even if the driver's and passenger's seats are narrow, the shoulders of the passengers sitting in both seats cross each other and never touch each other, so there is no feeling of cramping, and they can sit comfortably and with good comfort. Facing seats are provided.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.
In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a bench-type cushion, which is integrally molded with the passenger seat side B appropriately shifted rearward relative to the driver seat side A. 2 is a backrest on the driver's seat side A, and 3 is a backrest provided on the passenger seat side B so as to face the backrest 2 on the driver's seat side A. Reference numeral 4 designates a table that can be stored in storage grooves 2a and 3a on the sides of the backrest 2 of the driver's seat and the backrest 3 of the passenger seat, respectively, and can be pulled out onto the other seat when in use. As shown in FIG. 3, the table 4 has a support tube 41 fixed therein with a key groove 41a formed in the backrests 2 and 3, and a support rod 42 having a protrusion 42a at one end is slidably fitted into the support tube 41. A table plate 43 is attached to the other side of the support rod 42, and the protrusion 42 of the support rod 42 is inserted into the key groove 41a of the support tube 41.
a is inserted, thereby pulling out the table plate 43 and rotating it 90 degrees forward to keep the table plate 43 horizontal.

In addition, when the table 4 is provided on the back side of the backrests 2 and 3, the support tube 41 may be attached directly to the back side. Further, the configuration of the table 4 is not necessarily limited to this.

By configuring the present invention as described above, the passenger on the passenger seat side B is able to sit facing the rear.
Since the front is the backrest 3, it goes without saying that even in the event of a car accident, injuries and injuries can be kept to a minimum.In particular, in this invention, the cushion 1 appropriately shifts the passenger seat side B to the rear with respect to the driver seat side A. Therefore, the facing backrest 3 on the passenger seat side B does not obstruct the driver's left side view as in the conventional case, and it is easy to check the left side and the door mirror, which is safe. Also, in the case of a narrow vehicle such as a light vehicle or a small vehicle of 1000 c.c. or less, the shoulders of both passengers sitting facing each other on the driver's seat A and the passenger seat B should completely touch each other. Even if the width of both seats A and B is extremely narrow, the shoulders of both seats cross without touching, so there is almost no feeling of cramping, and the comfort is extremely good.For this reason, it is possible to further narrow the width of the conventional seat. The open space can be used to store other items, such as long and narrow items such as fishing rods and skis, and this space can also be used to reduce the width of the vehicle without taking up much space. It is. Furthermore, the arrangement of the facing backrests 2 and 3 of the present invention makes it extremely easy to provide a table which can be stored inside or behind the backrests 2 and 3 and which can be pulled out onto each other's seats when in use. It can be fun. Note that the seat of the present invention is not limited to use only in the front part, but may also be used in the rear part.

As described above, the seat of the present invention can simultaneously satisfy the safety and comfort of automobiles, and has great practical value.
