Minivan Car Retractable Parts Designersinteriors, furniture and all sorts of products often use retractable parts to enhance the functionality of their creations. Hidden components like those seen in the top photo are typical for vehicles that are designed to travel long distances. But does it make sense to install them in cars and pay huge amounts of money for it?
Where the retractable devices really come inuseful, so it is in all kinds of campers and motorhomes, which are subject to legal restrictions on length and width. And here is a clear example: specialists from the Danbury DoubleBack company have improved the Volkswagen Transporter car, adding an insert that, when extended, almost doubles the interior in size. This is something almost fantastic: after all, while driving, the car looks like an ordinary minivan! Another option is a teardrop trailer from the Australian company Gidget, which also doubles in size when necessary, and all thanks to a retractable insert.
Trailers of this design are lightweight andgood aerodynamics. They are easy to transport even in small and not very powerful cars. Compactness is another advantage. Gidget models extend and significantly increase in size. They can be equipped with solar panels, if the customer so desires.
Having assessed both options, we concludedincrease the weight of the vehicle, complicate its design and create problems with sealing. However, they allow you to get additional space when needed, and in a short time and without much effort. The same concept applies to residential interiors, because there are already apartments in which entire rooms are hidden behind mobile partitions.
Do you think this idea is viable or utopian?
