SYSTEM FOR EQUIPPING THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WITH A TELEMATIC OFFICE

Abstract: System for equipping the vehicle (1) passenger compartment with a telematic office, inclusive of the transformation of the internal layout of the compartment into a multiple station for carrying out various kinds of telematic activities capable of activating a multimedia office. The internal layout of the vehicle (1) may easily be replaced in the normal driving conditions as all the systems may be placed in appropriate receptacles in order to turn all the seats back towards the driving position and restore the conditions of comfort for all aboard.

Description: SYSTEM FOR EQUIPPING THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WITH TELEMATIC OFFICE FIELD OF THE ART This invention concerns vehicle inboard equipment and the equipping of the passenger compartment with computer systems. STATE OF THE ART The trend to equip vehicles with radio, telephone and television transmitting equipment is well known. The problem to be solved is that of achieving a complete system for transforming the vehicle passenger compartment into a telematic multimedia office. DESCRIPTION This invention will now be explained with reference to the figures of the enclosed drawings as a non-restrictive example. Figure no. 1 is a plan drawing of the vehicle passenger compartment in the driving position. Figure no. 2 is a plan drawing of the compartment interior transformed into a telematic multimedia office. Figure no. 3 is a drawing of the vehicle passenger compartment seen from the side. The items in the figures are distinguished in the following manner: 1 indicates a vehicle 2 indicates the vehicle passenger compartment 3 indicates the seats positioned in the driving position 3' indicates the front seats turned towards the centre of the compartment 4 indicates the desk 5 indicates the keyboard of a personal computer 6 indicates the data processing unit of the computer 7 indicates the video screen of the computer 8 indicates the printer 9 indicates the scanner 10 indicates a portable computer 11 indicates the accessory holder slots 12 indicates an audio/video device 13 indicates a satellite parabola The plainness of the figures clarifies the simplicity and practicality of the system being subject of this invention. The actual embodiment is obviously open to different combination variants of the various computer and telematic components. It goes without saying that the internal layout of the vehicle may be easily restored by turning the seats 3' back towards the forward position and by removing the equipment installed in the compartment. The equipping of a vehicle compartment with rather technologically modern equipment and components, which can modernised in the future, that is not indicated in the figures of the drawings but may be commercialised in the future, is obviously within the scope of this industrial invention. Therefore all systems for transforming the compartment of vehicles into a telematic office having the characteristics substantially described, illustrated and claimed are within the scope of this invention.

Claims: CLAIMS 1. System for equipping the vehicle passenger compartment with a telematic office characterised by the fact that it includes the transformation of the internal layout of the compartment into a multiple station for carrying out various kinds of telematic activities capable of activating a multimedia office. 2. System for equipping the vehicle passenger compartment with a telematic office, as indicated in claim 1 , characterised by the fact that the internal layout of the vehicle may be easily replaced in the normal travelling conditions as all devices may be placed in appropriate receptacles in order to turn all the seats back to the driving position and restore the conditions of comfort for all aboard. 3. System for equipping the vehicle passenger compartment with a telematic office as indicated in claim 1 and claim 2, characterised by the fact that the vehicle is already wired-up or rather pre-arranged for the connection of a variety of systems that allow telematic multimedia activities to be carried out inside the vehicle together with the connection to telematic networks.
