Abstract

This utility model discloses an automatic tarpaulin covering device for trucks, comprising: a covering unit, which includes a column, a rail-mounted truss hanger, an electric hoist crane, and a tarpaulin support rod. At least two sets of rail-mounted truss hangers are spaced apart on the column, and the electric hoist crane is installed on the rail-mounted truss hanger. The tarpaulin support rod is connected to the electric hoist crane via a suspension rope. A tarpaulin storage unit includes a support frame, a support roller, a tarpaulin retraction roller, and a drive mechanism. The support roller is located on top of the support frame, the tarpaulin retraction roller is rotatably mounted on the support frame, and the drive mechanism drives the rotation of the retraction roller. Through the storage unit, the drive mechanism can drive the retraction roller to rotate in both directions. Combined with the guidance of the support roller, the used tarpaulin can be automatically and orderly rolled up and stored on the retraction roller, or the tarpaulin can be smoothly released during use. This effectively solves the problems of random stacking and inconvenient retrieval of tarpaulins after removal in existing technologies, achieving standardized and automated storage and management of tarpaulins.
