Control device of vehicle, vehicle, and method of activating door to open and close and slope plate to deploy

A vehicle comprising:

• a body having a vehicle cabin in which a passenger rides and a floor panel constituting a floor of the vehicle cabin;
• a door opening-closing mechanism that drives a door mounted on the body to open and close;
• a slope deploying mechanism that deploys a slope plate housed under the floor panel to an outside of the body;
• and
• a control device that coordinates operation of the door opening-closing mechanism and the slope deploying mechanism, wherein:
• the control device opens the door by the door opening-closing mechanism after deploying the slope plate toward the outside of the body by the slope deploying mechanism;
• and
• the control device deploys the slope plate to the outside of the body by the slope deploying mechanism to eject the slope plate, pushes the door out toward the outside by the door opening-closing mechanism to slightly open the door, then immediately raises the slope plate by the slope deploying mechanism until an upper surface of a body-side end of the slope plate reaches a level of an upper surface of the floor panel, grounds a leading end of the slope plate, and then fully opens the door by the door opening-closing mechanism.

A method of activating a door to open and close and a slope plate to deploy in a vehicle including:

• a body having a vehicle cabin in which a passenger rides and a floor panel constituting a floor of the vehicle cabin;
• a door opening-closing mechanism that drives a door mounted on the body to open and close;
• and a slope deploying mechanism that deploys a slope plate housed under the floor panel to an outside of the body,
• the method involving opening the door by the door opening-closing mechanism after deploying the slope plate toward the outside of the body by the slope deploying mechanism, and
• the method involves deploying the slope plate to the outside of the body by the slope deploying mechanism to eject the slope plate, pushing the door out toward the outside by the door opening-closing mechanism to slightly open the door, then immediately raising the slope plate by the slope deploying mechanism until an upper surface of a body-side end of the slope plate reaches a level of an upper surface of the floor panel, grounding a leading end of the slope plate, and then fully opening the door by the door opening-closing mechanism.
