[0036] See also Figure 1-Figure 9 .

[0037] Some embodiments of the present application disclose a cab space expansion device, including a box body 1, which is installed in a cargo box 2 of a truck. The box body 1 includes a bottom plate 11, side panels 12 and a box cover 13. The bottom plate 11 is opposite to the box cover 13. The side panels 12 are arranged between the bottom plate 11 and the box cover 13. The side panels 12 are arranged along the circumference of the bottom plate 11. The bottom plate 11, the side panels 12 and the box cover 13 enclose a storage space of the box body 1.

[0038] The box body 1 is fixedly connected to the cargo box 2. Optionally, at least one of the bottom plate 11 and the side panel 12 is connected to the cargo box 2. Specifically, it can be said that the bottom plate 11 is connected to the cargo box 2, or that the side panel 12 is connected to the cargo box 2, or that both the bottom plate 11 and the side panel 12 are connected to the cargo box 2. The specific connection method is determined according to the shape of the box body 1 and the installation position.

[0039] There are many ways to connect the box body 1 and the cargo box 2, which can be bolt connection, riveted connection, welding connection, clamping connection, or other connection methods, which are not specifically limited here.

People in the cab can put the items in the cab into the storage space of the box body 1 through the connecting port 14, so that the box body 1 can store the items in the cab to meet the market demand for storage space in the cab.

[0041] This solution expands the space of the cab through the box body 1, and isolates a separate space in the cargo box 2 of the truck for storing items in the cab, so that the items in the cab are not stacked together with the items in the cargo box 2. The box body 1 provides an independent and relatively closed space for the items in the cab, which is independent of the cargo box 2 and does not expose the items in the cab, thereby meeting the privacy requirements of the items.

[0042] In addition, the items in the cab are stored separately from the items in the cargo box 2, so that the items in the cargo box 2 and the items in the cab can be classified and sorted, reducing the difficulty of finding the items.

[0043] The cab space expansion device disclosed in the present solution is located outside the cab and inside the cargo box 2, thereby increasing the storage space of the cab without affecting the original storage space of the cab.

[0044] The connecting port 14 is located behind the second-row member seats. When it is necessary to take or place items in the cab space expansion device, the second-row member seats need to be folded down.
