House on wheels from the cargo van. Interior design Avtodomom

The house on wheels is the type of transport that is simultaneously housing and a means of movement. Its popularity of this kind of accommodation gained at the beginning of the last century.

According to standards mobile home Must contain eight people. For each tenant, its sleeping place is provided, there is still a small kitchen. The rest of the convenience and equipment may vary depending on the specific model, but in most cases there are also:


In more expensive models there is a bathroom consisting of (often replacing a chair, which gives several additional meters of free space), washbasin and soul. Sometimes mobile homes are equipped with shower cabins.

Note! In the auto house, the driver's and passenger seats are mobile, as a result of which, during the parking lot, turn into an addition to the living space. In the tail is often equipped with a separate room with U-shaped furniture.

History

Serial production of mobile homes was launched in the last century, although some historians believe that there were earlier homemade analogues. They were small vans equipped for people living (mostly cattle breeders).

The first house on the wheels established on the usual car chassis was introduced in 1938 by Jennings.

Varieties of mobile homes

There are several high-class classifications. So, according to the features of the design, allocate:


Depending on the purpose, they are divided into:

  • those that are used as long-term / permanent housing;
  • those that are used for travel.

In the first case, there are more comfortable conditions, while often moving structures are extremely rarely divided into the living area itself and the cabin.

Categories


Consider in detail each of the categories.

C-Class

Small-sized houses that are meant for short travel. It is usually made on the basis of SUVs, so the cabin can be in a double bed (if desired).

In-class

The only difference between it and the C-class is a sleeping place - it is stationary and located in the tail of the transport. Eliminates great popularity among young couples (at least in America).

A-Class

Such houses, externally similar to the usual bus, are the most comfortable and, therefore, the most expensive. They are built on the basis of trucks, so in terms of transport classification They refer to the category "C".

They are distinguished by a large windshield, a fixed driving chair and retractable partitions forming different zones and separate bedrooms. Moreover, such designs are autonomous, equipped with a generator, have gas and a large supply of water.

Several additional categories can be distinguished.


About title

Under the term "Autodom" (another name - "Ceper") often implies a car caravan.

Note! Campers are called C-C-Class trailers, while the houses on the wheels are exclusively models of the A-class.

It is also worth noting that in individual countries, everything without exception is called Vinebago.

To convert the car to the house on wheels, you will need a lot of time and effort, as well as the appropriate equipment.

Note! Initially, this question should be explored from the point of view of legislation. Different registering organizations perceive self-made autodomes in different ways, and it will be unpleasant if the transport in the end is illegal.

Stage 1. Initially, the number of tenants is determined and, based on this, is selected vehicle and internal "filling." A detailed design of the design is compiled - this can be done on paper, but it is better to use the computer.

Stage 2. Next clears the body of the car. If dents were detected, they are removed, and the peeling paint is considered. Multiple windows are equipped (if there were no) in the housing for lighting and receipt of fresh air.

Step 3. The ventilation openings and gas supply valves are cut. All plots of "naked" metal are covered with primer to protect against corrosion and aggressive environmental impact.

Stage 4. The house is separated by thermal insulation M material.

Note! To do this, you need to use exceptionally high-quality materials, saving extremely undesirable. In addition, the material from which hardware is made (metal fasteners) should be similar metal body metal - this is for additional protection from rusting.

Stage 5. Put the inner surface of the autodoma.

  • carpet covering;
  • moist-resistant faeer.

Thick panels are inserted into the side walls with gripped plackets for mounting furniture. It is characteristic that at first it is better to level the ceiling, and after that move to the walls.

Step 6. After installing furniture, it is necessary to take care of water supply. To do this, you can install a few canister with water under the sink and install small pumps. In addition, you can put large tanks - for example, for the adoption of the soul.

Note! Do not forget about wastewater - for this, another tank is installed. As a toilet, you can use a conventional garden structure.

Stage 7. For cooking and heating, as noted earlier, it is better to use gas propane. The cylinder is placed at the bottom of the body, as well as additional hole For ventilation. This is explained simple enough: the weight of propane is more than air, therefore, in case of leakage, such security measures will prevent sad consequences.

Stage 8. It remains only to take care of the power supply. Optimal option - Powerful accumulator batteryequipped with outdoor exit for charging.

Mobile home from an old trailer

Trailer trailer We cost about 500,000 rubles. The amount is impressive, so if you can buy old car trailer., you can build a small car for your own hands. This will require:

  • trailer (necessarily with a strong chassis);
  • wooden elements (rails, bars, carriages);
  • plywood;
  • metal photograph (for roof);
  • fittings made in one style;
  • set of appropriate tools.

Manufacturing technology

Such an autode will be a trailer with in the rear. By the way, the bed is better to do on the entire width of the design - so it will connect the side walls and strengthen the stiffness. The erker window will be made later and equipped with an individual block. The door is set by a Dutch type - it will consist of two halves.

Stage 1. The trailer disassembled, the chassis is carefully cleaned and covered with anti-corrosion paint. Frames are built from pine boards, backups are cut in the appropriate places.

Stage 2. From the rails with a cross section 2x2 cm, a frame is built, in each corner an oak rail is installed in cross section 3x3 cm. From above, the frame is suspended with a horizontal rail.

It is advisable to use lining of various thickness:

  • for side walls - 6 mm;
  • for front and rear - 19 mm.

Note! For thermal insulation, you can lay the lining with two layers.

Stage 3. The floor is covered with plywood sheets. For the roof, bars from a poplar are used - they are screwed along the frame with a step of 30 cm. On the bars, plywood is fixed, on top of which moisture-resistant material and a small cross section.

Stage 4. In the case there will be only one window (if the door is not taken into account) - at the top of the rear wall. It is advisable to perform the window in the form of an erker.

The door lock in such structures is located below, but you can put another one - extra - on top. In addition, the door is equipped with a small bedroom window.

Stage 5. It is recommended to equip the table extending from under the bed (as it was once in the trains of Great Britain). For this, the bed is formed special drawers-Runduki. By the way, the lower space can also be used as a sleeping place.

In addition, shelves and a removable staircase are built from the tree.




Letter of the law

No additional permission is required if the dimensions of the houses on the wheels will not exceed:

  • 400 cm in height;
  • 255 cm in width;
  • 100 cm long (excluding the part that does not protrude beyond the trailer).

If the dimensions are more, then the authod is transported by specials (flashers, accompaniment, etc.). Of course, this applies only to the trailer trailer Am.

Business organization on mobile homes

On the construction of auto houses you can organize your own business. There are four options for the development of such business.

Option number 1. Making houses for sale for summer holidays or accommodation in the country. This will not require serious material costs, since at home will be simplified design - for example, without insulation.

Option number 2. Give houses on wheels for rent. This is about new businessAnd for all new you can take very expensive. The number of highways in this case is increasing as the client base grows.

Option number 3. Making mobile snack bars or shops.

Option number 4, he is the most interesting. It is to create a fleet and its further use as a hotel. Here the main thing is to divide the trays to the budget, premium and middle class.

For a more detailed acquaintance with the construction technology, familiarize yourself with the thematic video.

The fantasy of the owners, advice borrowed from the Internet will help create a stylish and landscaped car-campaign on the basis of Gazelles independently.

The company "Autochemper" offers a service re-equipment of minibuses and minivans under Avtomoma. You yourself choose a van and chassis that maximize your requirements for mass, dimensions and high-speed highways.

Re-equipment of minibuses in the houses on wheels are carried out by specialists in Moscow, which has been internship in enterprises and specialized tuning centers in Germany. To build a camper, equipment and accessories used in the serial production of highways are used.

The service of re-equipment of minivans in the autoomom gives you the opportunity to create "House on the wheels of your dreams" In the literal sense of the word. You define the layout of the camper, the color of furniture, materials for upholstered furniture, the number of beds, its technological qualities. If you plan to operate an autode in harsh winter conditions, the specialists of the company "Autocumper" will install "winter package" : Enhanced heated heated system for water communications and preheater Webasto. If, on the contrary, you prefer to travel in hot summer days, the camper will be equipped with air conditioning system. Pneumatic suspension, increased clearance, solar panels, multimedia, advanced kitchen equipment set - any of your expectations can be implemented in an autodomome built by an individual project.

Another significant plus construction of an autodoma on an individual project is ability to determine the budget, the volume of financial costs For the purchase of a camper. You can choose both a new van and used. The cost of the project also affects the list of equipment and specifications Avtomoma. For example, You do not need a kitchen blockwhich is always present in basic configuration houses on industrial production wheels. Refusing to install this type of equipment, you reduce costs.

The base for the house on wheels can be:

Peugeot Boxer.
Citroen Jumper.
Fiat Ducato.
Mercedes Sprinter.
Your van Any other van, which has passed as expertise in the service center "Autochemper"

Complex of work on re-equipment of the van in Avtod:

  • Warming of the body of the van (thermal insulation)
  • Inserts of glasses and hatches in the body of a minibus
  • Making furniture for autoomoma of light furniture shield laminated veneer
  • Interior decoration of the walls of a minibus lightweight plywood, covered skin
  • Gasket electric wiring, installation of lighting and electrical equipment inside minivan

  • Installing any additional equipment Customer selection: air conditioning, audio and video equipment, satellite TV, navigator, solar panels, marquises and other household equipment

Make a person's personnel - not too complicated task for experienced Masters. But the dates of such construction can be strongly delayed due to the continuous improvement of the design. In order not to get into such a situation, you should think in advance the interior, refusing obviously unnecessary elements. This is especially important when equipped small carsFor example, when creating a house on wheels from gazelles with your own hands.

The mobile home has indisputable advantages - comfort, comfort and mobility. Moscow is a noisy city, from which you want to sometimes leave. The owners of trailers do not have to look for a place for overnight stay, and travels become very economical. If you used to use this original housing, it was not possible to get an opportunity, you should first get acquainted with their classification.

Types of auto houses and their classification

Choosing the type of future mobile housing, one can be guided by its division by:

  • kind - there are trailed, van or combined with a car at the wheels;
  • class - distinguish three classes of autodomas comfort;
  • trailer type - exist trailers trailers, hybrid and fifth-wheel trailers.

If everything is clear with the trailed view of the mobile house, then the difference between the van and combined auto-bodies is not immediately visible. In the first version, the residential premises is located in the car van and separated from the driver's seat.

Such an option is suitable when traveling together, when no one remains in the "house" at the time of relocation. Thanks to this design, it is possible to enter more functional furniture using a deaf front wall.

Converted from Gazelles or minibuses of the Avtomom is just combined.

Comfort class can be called conditional. So, to homes on the wheels of class A "include spacious trailers made on the chassis of large trucks. Outwardly, they resemble a bus, may have folding structures, and inside the functionality they do not differ from a small apartment.

It should be borne in mind that the driver should have the right category "C" to manage this transport.

The spaces in it are much smaller, but still traveling in them convenient. What is important - it is possible to manage such a car with the rights of category B if the weight of the car or the total weight of the car with the trailer does not exceed 3.5 tons.

The class "C" indicates the most simple autoomom. It may be a small trailer or converted to a minibus. There is no separate sleeping place here - its function is performed by folding sofas or chairs. But equipping such a mini camper with a trunk-tent, folding canopy and a set of furniture for camping, you can get a comfortable stay with a minimum cost.

Similar trailers designers are also called hybrid to distinguish them from simple trailers. Separately, it is necessary to note the FIVSVIL trailers, the form of which is designed for use in conjunction with pickups. Due to this, it is possible to reduce the length of the entire caravan, because part of the trailer hangs over the body of the car.

Errors in the construction of houses on wheels do it yourself

Prices for mobile homes are noticeably "biting". Not surprisingly, the desire of the mace of the heads of families to save the budget and do it all. It is important to be wise and learn from other errors:

  • it is not necessary to do all of the girlfriend - the house will have to live at least a week and you want to stay with comfort;
  • it will require serious refinement of the body, the heating systems, wiring - without the skills of the car mechanic, do not do;
  • if the shower and the toilet still managed to enter, do not forget about the tank for a drain - pour out dirty water on asphalt or the lawn is extremely unethical;
  • it is better not to forget to make a connector for connecting 220V on camping parking, well, and the converter for 12V from the car battery.

Production of trailer with its own forces

If the difficulties are not frightened, and the desire to action is not strangular, you can try your strength in the construction of the house. And to redo the gazelle or build from zero trailer trailer - the choice is strictly individual!

House on wheels from Gazelle do it yourself

You will need a Bulgarian, a welding machine, a hand saw on a tree and a lot of patience. Phased the modernization of the car looks like this:

  1. The seats from the cabin are taken, the old sheathing is removed. All metal parts are processed by a special solution that prevents the appearance of rust. Walls and ceiling are insulated with foam polyethylene, plywood sheets are laid on the floor. The entire wiring passes under the sheaving of the floor and walls, it should be thought out in advance.
  2. Right in the bodies are welded frame for furniture. If you set a smooth car, you can not use a pipe as a level, overlooking the ends into the bottom edge of the window openings. After a draft welding, the frame is removed and everything is welded, it is cleaned and reappeared inside.
  3. Window openings are punishable by carpet. Ceiling panels are also installed. After the interior is completed, it is possible to mount the racks under the mezzanine and mount furniture frames.
  4. For the front seats, you can make a swivel mechanism. To do this, you will need anterior hub, for example, from VAZ and part of the rotary rack. The scheme is quite simple.
  5. The final stage is to install furniture on the frame, the connection of the lighting, the installation of the pump for the kitchen service. For cooking, you can put a small gas stove per single burner.
  6. Instead of welding the furniture frame, you can use ready-made headsets, reinforcing them from the inside with corners and additional screws. Bold the kitchen is also needed to everything - the floor, sofa, wall. This is done to protect the furniture from the breaking during the movement along the bumpy roads.

We should not forget that such a remission of the car requires registration in REO. To do this, you need to write a statement and get a resolution from the Tehotel of the State Training of the FAI and the Protocol of an authorized organization.

Stylish plywood trailer

If there is a carbon car, sin does not take advantage of the situation and do not make a pretty trailer "drop" for overnight stays outside the city. For this:

  1. Side walls of the future van are cut and attached to the base. All holes under the doors and windows, as well as to relieve the frame, should be cut in advance, so it's better to think about the drawing.
  2. Shelves are collected from the furniture shield and are installed on the base. The same shelves will perform the functions of the front and rear walls of the van.
  3. On the shape of the van above the shelves on both sides, a plywood sheet bent, the power frame of the bar is fixed above. One side is made lifting, opening access to the kitchen.
  4. The top hatch and the roof window is cut. The entire frame is insulating, the wiring is stacked.
  5. On top everything is stuck with veneer sheets. When door and window openings are cut, you can proceed to the outer painting and varnishing.
  6. Installed doors, top hatch and supply and exhaust ventilation. After fixing all the fittings, overall lights And the wings for the wheels can be easily sent on the journey!
