Reconfigurable Recreational Vehicle

Abstract

A reconfigurable RV is provided, having a multi-section wall separating a living quarters and a garage, that wall being vertically adjustable by elevation of the living quarters floor to selectively move between multiple modes of use, including full down, loft, and full up. The vertical adjustment of the wall permits changes in the usable area of the garage floor, according to the ceiling height needed in the garage and living quarters concurrently

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A reconfigurable RV comprising:
 at least a first and a second room inside of the RV,   each room having a floor with a useable floor area and a floor height,   wherein altering the floor height of the second interior room alters the useable floor area of the first interior room.   
     
     
         2 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 1 , also comprising a wall separating the first and second rooms, that wall having a selectively alterable vertical height. 
     
     
         3 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 1 , also comprising a rigid, multi-section wall between the first and second rooms. 
     
     
         4 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 3 , wherein the second room has a ceiling, and wherein at least part of the wall does not move relative to the ceiling. 
     
     
         5 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 4 , wherein at least one of the sections of the wall is fixed adjacent to the ceiling. 
     
     
         6 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 5 , wherein at least one of the sections of the wall is moveable vertically with respect to the ceiling. 
     
     
         7 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 6 , wherein at least one of the sections of the wall does not move relative to the floor of the second room. 
     
     
         8 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 1 , wherein the floor of the first room is disposed at a first elevation. 
     
     
         9 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 8 , wherein the floor of the second room is disposed at a second elevation that is higher than the first elevation. 
     
     
         10 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 10 , wherein the RV includes a first subfloor disposed beneath the floor of the second room, that first subfloor being disposed at the first elevation. 
     
     
         11 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 11 , wherein the floor of the first room and the first subfloor are contiguous. 
     
     
         12 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 12 , wherein the RV includes a second subfloor adjacent the first subfloor, that second subfloor being disposed at the first elevation. 
     
     
         13 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 13 , wherein the first and second subfloors are separated by a selectively openable partition. 
     
     
         14 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 8 , wherein the RV includes an apparatus for selectively raising or lowering the floor of the second room. 
     
     
         15 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 14 , wherein raising or lowering the floor of the second room causes the wall or reduce or extend its vertical height. 
     
     
         16 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 15 , wherein raising or lowering the floor of the second room causes the sections of the wall to slide vertically with respect to each other. 
     
     
         17 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 14 , wherein the apparatus for raising or lowering the floor of the second room is selectable to position the floor of the second room at an intermediate vertical height suitable for a loft use of the second room. 
     
     
         18 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 14 , wherein the second room includes a furnishing which is reconfigurable between seating and sleeping positions. 
     
     
         19 . The reconfigurable RV according to  claim 18 , wherein the second room includes a ceiling, and the apparatus for raising or lowering the floor of the second room precludes raising that floor when the furnishing is configured to a seating position which would impact the ceiling of the second room.
