Abstract

A rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure is proposed. The structure includes a cover part formed at a position corresponding to an inner surface of a trim, a housing rotated about a rotating shaft to be withdrawn from the trim, and a rotating bellows connected to the housing and configured to be folded according to a rotational radius of the housing. The cover part may be rotated about the rotating shaft to be opened, and then be longitudinally extended.

Claims (23)

1. A rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure comprising:

a cover part formed at a position corresponding to an inner surface of a trim;

a housing rotatable about a rotating shaft to be withdrawn from the trim; and

a rotating bellows connected to the housing, and configured to be folded according to a rotational radius of the housing,

wherein the cover part comprises:

a first cover secured to the housing;

a second cover formed at a position corresponding to the first cover, and configured to move longitudinally along the trim; and

a folding part forming at least a surface of each of the first and second covers when the second cover is longitudinally moved.

2. The rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure of claim 1 , wherein the rotating bellows is compressed in a state where the cover part is held on the inner surface of the trim.

3. The rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure of claim 1 , wherein the folding part is configured to be folded inwards when the first cover and the second cover come into contact with each other.

4. The rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure of claim 1 , further comprising:

a magnet positioned on an upper portion of the first cover or the second cover; and

a touch fastener formed on a base part,

wherein the first cover and the second cover are configured to contact with each other via the magnet.

5. The rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure of claim 1 , further comprising:

a screen part fastened to an upper surface of the housing, and configured to move downwards in a height direction to separate an interior storage space of the housing.

6. A rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure comprising:

a cover part formed at a position corresponding to an inner surface of a trim;

a housing rotatable about a rotating shaft to be withdrawn from the trim; and

a rotating bellows connected to the housing, and configured to be folded according to a rotational radius of the housing,

wherein the cover part is rotated about the rotating shaft to be opened and then is longitudinally extended.

7. The rotating multi-variant luggage tray structure of claim 1 , further comprising:

a base part positioned on the first cover or the second cover, and configured to be deployed to a floor to form a floor surface when the second cover is longitudinally extended.
