Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile parts, and in particular to a rotating shaft structure and a pickup truck tailgate having the same. Background Art
[0002] As a common vehicle type, pickup trucks have both the comfort of sedans and strong power. As pickup trucks have strong cargo carrying and poor road adaptability, their comprehensive performance also makes them one of the common off-road vehicles nowadays. In order to enable pickup trucks to adapt to more diverse environments, most existing pickup trucks need to be equipped with a hood. The hood is composed of multiple panels and can be folded and flipped through a rotating shaft structure. When in use, the hood is folded and laid flat when not in use to cover the rear trunk of the pickup truck.
[0003] In the existing shaft structure, the rotating protrusion of the shaft is circular, which causes the rotating rod that cooperates with the protrusion to push the protrusion outward during the rotation of the plate due to insufficient rotation space, causing the cover plate to fall off and separate. Summary of the invention
[0004] The embodiments of the present invention provide a rotating shaft structure and a pickup truck trunk cover having the same, which at least solve the technical problem of the cover plate falling off and separating due to insufficient rotating space.

[0009] Among them, the rotating body moves along the path inside the rotating space, so that the rotating body part and the base part undergo relative angular displacement. When the rotating body part and the base part are in a horizontal state, the abutment body and the abutment surface are engaged together to limit the connection state between the base part and the rotating body part; the part of the transition body located in the rotating space is reduced, so that the rotating space is expanded.
[0010] The rotating shaft structure provided in the embodiment of the present invention reduces the portion of the transition body located in the rotating space, thereby expanding the range of the rotating space, thereby enabling the rotating body to obtain a larger range of rotation margin, avoiding the cover plate from falling off and separating due to insufficient rotating space, and improving the stability of use.
[0011] Furthermore, the transition body is in a triangle, trapezoid or V shape. The purpose of such arrangement is to reduce the space occupied by the transition body and expand the range of the rotation space.
[0012] Furthermore, the rotating body part also has a main body, a rotating groove is formed between the main body and the rotating body, and the arc body is rotatably connected to the rotating groove. The purpose of such arrangement is to cooperate with each other in rotation and avoid interference during the rotation process.
[0013] Furthermore, a sealing strip is provided at the connection between the base part and the rotating part. The purpose of such provision is that the provision of the sealing strip greatly improves the sealing between the base part and the rotating part, and prevents rainwater and impurities from entering the vehicle compartment.
[0014] Furthermore, a first card slot is provided along the outer side of the base portion; a second card slot is provided on the inner side of the rotating portion; the first card slot and the second card slot are located in a corresponding position and form a space for accommodating a sealing strip. The purpose of such a setting is to specifically provide a specific part of the connection, where the first card slot and the second card slot are arranged in a corresponding position and form a space for accommodating a sealing strip.
[0015] Furthermore, a first end cap is provided at the end of the base portion; a second end cap is provided at the end of the swivel portion; and the second end cap is rotatably connected to the first end cap. The purpose of such a setting is to seal the ends of the base portion and the swivel portion and improve the aesthetics.
[0016] On the other hand, the present application proposes a pickup truck trunk cover, which is composed of a plurality of panel assemblies, and the plurality of panel assemblies are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft structure, so that the angles between the plurality of panel assemblies change. The purpose of such a setting is to achieve the angle change between the plurality of panel assemblies.
[0017] Furthermore, each of the plate components includes a plate body and a plurality of frames arranged around the plate body, so as to improve the overall strength and stability.
[0018] Furthermore, the pickup truck trunk cover has a flat state and a folded state. The purpose of such a setting is to adaptively adjust and switch the flat state and the folded state of the pickup truck trunk cover according to the usage scenario. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
