Abstract

A cargo space device for a front part having a front space of a motor vehicle, where the front space is coverable by a moveable front bonnet. The cargo space device includes a cargo space and a shifting device where the cargo space is shiftable by the shifting device between a stowed position accommodated in the front part and an extended position that is raised in relation to the stowed position in a first shifting direction. The cargo space is pivotable around a pivoting axis running in a region of a lower front marginal edge of the cargo space, in relation to the shifting device, in a second shifting direction which is different from the first shifting direction.

Claims (20)

1. A cargo space device for a front part ( 10 ) having a front space ( 12 ) of a motor vehicle, wherein the front space ( 12 ) is coverable by a moveable front bonnet ( 14 ), comprising:

a cargo space ( 16 ); and

a shifting device ( 20 ), wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is shiftable by the shifting device ( 20 ) between a stowed position accommodated in the front part ( 10 ) and an extended position that is raised in relation to the stowed position in a first shifting direction (V), wherein the front bonnet ( 14 ) and the cargo space ( 16 ) are movable independently of each other;

wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is pivotable around a pivoting axis (S) running in a region of a lower front marginal edge of the cargo space ( 16 ), in relation to the shifting device ( 20 ), in a second shifting direction ( 30 ) which is different from the first shifting direction (V);

wherein shifting device ( 20 ) comprises a support console ( 24 ) on which the cargo space ( 16 ) is mounted for shifting in the second shifting direction ( 30 ).

2. The cargo space device according to claim 1 , wherein the extended position is raised in relation to the stowed position such that the cargo space ( 16 ) extends at least partially out of the front part ( 10 ).

3. The cargo space device according to claim 1 , wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is sealable by a cover ( 32 ) which is pivotable around a pivoting axis (s) running in a region of an upper rear marginal edge ( 34 ) of the cargo space ( 16 ).

4. The cargo space device according to claim 1 , wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is sealable by a cover ( 32 ) which is pivotable around a pivoting axis (s) running in a region of an upper front marginal edge ( 38 ) of the cargo space ( 16 ).

5. The cargo space device according to claim 1 , wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is shiftable manually or in a force-supported manner by the shifting device ( 20 ) between the stowed position and the extended position.

6. The cargo space device according to claim 1 , wherein the shifting device ( 20 ) is stoppable in the stowed position and in the extended position.

7. A cargo space device for a front part ( 10 ) having a front space ( 12 ) of a motor vehicle, wherein the front space ( 12 ) is coverable by a moveable front bonnet ( 14 ), comprising:

a cargo space ( 16 ); and

a shifting device ( 20 ), wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is shiftable by the shifting device ( 20 ) between a stowed position accommodated in the front part ( 10 ) and an extended position that is raised in relation to the stowed position in a first shifting direction (V), wherein the front bonnet ( 14 ) and the cargo space ( 16 ) are movable independently of each other;

wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is pivotable around a pivoting axis (S) running in a region of a lower front marginal edge of the cargo space ( 16 ), in relation to the shifting device ( 20 ), in a second shifting direction ( 30 ) which is different from the first shifting direction (V);

wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is shiftable in the second shifting direction ( 30 ) only after reaching the extended position.

8. A cargo space device for a front part ( 10 ) having a front space ( 12 ) of a motor vehicle, wherein the front space ( 12 ) is coverable by a moveable front bonnet ( 14 ), comprising:

a cargo space ( 16 ); and

a shifting device ( 20 ), wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is shiftable by the shifting device ( 20 ) between a stowed position accommodated in the front part ( 10 ) and an extended position that is raised in relation to the stowed position in a first shifting direction (V), wherein the front bonnet ( 14 ) and the cargo space ( 16 ) are movable independently of each other;

wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is pivotable around a pivoting axis (S) running in a region of a lower front marginal edge of the cargo space ( 16 ), in relation to the shifting device ( 20 ), in a second shifting direction ( 30 ) which is different from the first shifting direction (V);

wherein the cargo space ( 16 ) is sealable by a cover ( 32 ) and wherein the cover ( 32 ) is formed as a cargo edge protection element via which a component of the front part ( 10 ) disposed in a loading and unloading region of the cargo space ( 16 ) is coverable.
