DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0032] Example: Refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 , a pickup truck rear multifunctional expansion rack, comprising:

[0033] The bracket 1 is used for being fixedly connected to the rear bucket, and the bracket 1 defines a receiving area on both sides of the rear bucket;

[0034] The baffle plate 2 is arranged in the accommodating area, the bottom end of the baffle plate 2 is connected to the bracket 1, and the top end of the baffle plate 2 is detachably connected to the bracket 1;

[0035] The connecting rod 3 is slidably fitted on the top end of the baffle 2. A control member is provided on the baffle 2. The control end of the control member is connected to the connecting rod 3 to form a switchable connected or disconnected state of the connecting rod 3 relative to the bracket 1. Only when the connecting rod 3 is disconnected from the bracket 1, the baffle 2 can extend out of the accommodating interval.

[0036] The utility model fixes a bracket 1 to the rear bucket, arranges a baffle 2 using the accommodating interval defined by both sides of the bracket 1, and passes a rotating shaft 18 through the bottom end of the baffle 2 to connect it with the bracket 1, and the top end of the baffle 2 is detachably connected to the bracket 1 via a connecting rod 3, and the connecting rod 3 is controlled by a control member arranged on the baffle 2. When the connecting rod 3 is connected to the bracket 1, the baffle 2 is fixed in the accommodating interval, and when the connecting rod 3 is not connected to the bracket 1, the top end of the baffle 2 is movably connected to the bracket 1, so that it rotates around the bottom and extends out of the accommodating interval, and a placement platform is formed on both sides of the rear bucket, thereby effectively expanding the area of ​​the placement platform and improving the functionality of the expansion rack.

[0037] In addition, a support rod 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the baffle 2 on the bracket 1. When the baffle 2 rotates and extends out of the accommodating interval, the support rod 14 abuts against the baffle 2, so that the baffle 2 can be laid in a horizontal direction, thereby improving the actual use effect.

[0038] In the present technical solution, a plurality of through holes can be selectively provided on the baffle 2, which not only reduces the weight of the baffle 2, but also when the baffle 2 is fixed to the bracket 1, the objects placed on the rear bucket can be fixed by passing a rope through the through holes, thereby increasing the stability of the objects during the driving of the pickup truck by increasing the fixed connection points.

[0039] Furthermore, the control element includes:

[0040] A handle 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the baffle 2, and a first slide groove is formed in the handle 4;

[0041] The first control block 5 is elastically connected in the first slide groove, one end of the first control rod 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the first control block 5, and the other end of the first control rod 6 extends into the baffle 2 and is fixedly connected to a wedge 7. When the first control block 5 moves in a direction away from the baffle 2, the wedge 7 does not contact the connecting rod 3, so that the connecting rod 3 is not connected to the bracket 1. When the first control block 5 moves in a direction close to the baffle 2, the wedge 7 abuts against the connecting rod 3, so that the connecting rod 3 is connected to the bracket 1.

[0042] By fixing the handle 4 on the baffle 2 and providing a first slide groove in the handle 4, the first control block 5 is elastically connected in the first slide groove. When the connection state of the baffle 2 relative to the bracket 1 is adjusted, the first control block 5 is adjusted to move the first control block 5 in a direction away from the baffle 2. The first control rod 6 drives the wedge block 7 to not contact the connecting rod 3, and the corresponding connecting rod 3 is not connected to the bracket 1, so that the top end of the baffle 2 is disassembled from the bracket 1.

[0043] When the baffle 2 needs to be fixed in the accommodating interval, the first control block 5 is controlled to move in the direction close to the baffle 2, the wedge block 7 is abutted against the connecting rod 3, and the connecting rod 3 extends out of the baffle 2 under the action of the supporting force, thereby connecting with the bracket 1, thereby achieving the fixation of the baffle 2 relative to the bracket 1.

[0044] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0045] There are several first springs 8, which are distributed in the first slide groove in sequence along the length direction of the first control block 5. The two ends of the first spring 8 are respectively fixed to the first control block 5 and the inner wall of the first slide groove to form an elastic tendency to move the first control block 5 in the direction close to the baffle 2.

[0046] By fixing a plurality of first springs 8 in the first slide groove, elastic action is provided for the first control block 5 to move in the direction close to the baffle 2, so that the wedge block 7 is kept against the connecting rod 3, thereby ensuring the fixing stability between the baffle 2 and the bracket 1, and the first spring 8 squeezes the first control block 5 out of the first slide groove. When unfolding the baffle 2, a person only needs to squeeze the first control block 5 to make it move in the direction away from the baffle 2.

[0047] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0048] The second spring 9 has an empty slot in the baffle 2, and the side wall of the connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected to a second control block 10, which is slidably connected in the empty slot. The two ends of the second spring 9 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the empty slot and the second control block 10 to form an elastic tendency for the connecting rod 3 to move in the direction of the first control block 5.

[0049] It can be understood that the second spring 9 provides the connecting rod 3 with a movement tendency in the direction approaching the first control block 5. As the first control block 5 moves in the direction away from the baffle 2, the wedge block 7 no longer resists the connecting rod 3. The connecting rod 3 loses the external force and extends into the baffle 2 under the action of the second spring 9, thereby losing the connection with the bracket 1, completing the separation of the baffle 2 from the bracket 1, and the elastic supporting force of the first spring 8 is higher than that of the second spring 9. Therefore, under the action of the first spring 8, the connecting rod 3 has the dynamic strength to resist the elastic action of the second spring 9, thereby ensuring that the connecting rod 3 extends out of the baffle 2 and is connected to the bracket 1.

[0050] Furthermore, two connecting rods 3 are symmetrically arranged along the center of the baffle 2 , a second slide groove is opened in the baffle 2 , the two connecting rods 3 are slidably connected in the second slide groove, and the ends of the two connecting rods 3 that are far away from each other are connected to or not connected to the bracket 1 .

[0051] By relatively arranging two connecting rods 3 along the baffle 2, two corresponding first control rods 6 and two wedge blocks 7 are also arranged, and the two first control rods 6 are relatively fixedly connected to the two sides of the first control block 5, on the basis of improving the connection stability between the baffle 2 and the bracket 1, it is convenient to separate the two connecting rods 3 from the bracket 1 by squeezing a first control block 5, thereby improving the control efficiency.

[0052] Furthermore, the support 1 comprises:

[0053] A pair of transverse plates 11, with curved beams 12 welded to both sides of the transverse plates 11, and a receiving space between the two curved beams 12 on the same side of the pair of transverse plates 11;

[0054] A plurality of longitudinal beams 13 are arranged between a pair of transverse plates 11 , and two ends of the longitudinal beams 13 are respectively welded to the pair of transverse plates 11 .

[0055] Furthermore, a slot is provided on one side of the bent beam 12 close to the baffle 2, and a hole is provided on the inner side wall of the slot. One end of the connecting rod 3 extending out of the baffle 2 is connected to or not connected to the hole. When the connecting rod 3 is connected to the hole, the baffle 2 is located in the accommodating interval and is fixed relative to the bent beam 12. When the connecting rod 3 is not connected to the hole, the baffle 2 extends out of the accommodating interval.

[0056] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0057] One end of the clamping block 15 is rotatably connected to one side of the edge of the clamping slot through a flat hinge 16, and the other end of the clamping block 15 is penetrated by a bolt 17, and a threaded hole is provided on the inner wall of the clamping slot, and the bolt 17 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, wherein the clamping block 15 is configured so that when it is connected to the curved beam 12, the connecting rod 3 is fixed relative to the curved beam 12.

[0058] By fixing the bottom ends of the two curved beams 12 at both ends of the transverse plate 11 to the rear bucket of the pickup truck, the integral bracket 1 is erected on the rear bucket, and the two baffles 2 are distributed on both sides of the pickup truck along the length direction of the rear bucket. When a platform is needed, the two baffles 2 and the rear bucket door panel can be unfolded in three directions to expand the area of ​​the platform.

[0059] In addition, on the basis of being connected to the card hole by the connecting rod 3 to fix the baffle 2 relative to the curved beam 12, a card block 15 is rotatably connected to one side of the card slot, and the card block 15 and the card slot are transferred by a flat hinge 16, and a bolt 17 is passed through the card block 15, and a threaded hole is correspondingly opened on the inner wall of the card slot, and the bolt 17 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, so as to realize the detachable connection between the card block 15 and the card slot, and the port of the card slot is blocked by the card block 15, so that when the baffle 2 and the curved beam 12 are fixed, the connection stability between the two can be further improved.

[0060] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0061] When the baffle 2 needs to be unfolded, the bolt 17 is turned to rotate the block 15 relative to the slot to open it, and the first spring 8 is used to squeeze the first control block 5 out of the first slide slot. The person only needs to squeeze the first control block 5 in the opposite direction to make it move away from the baffle 2. During the process, the first control rod 6 drives the wedge block 7 to not contact the connecting rod 3, and the wedge block 7 no longer resists the connecting rod 3. The connecting rod 3 loses the external force and extends into the baffle 2 under the action of the second spring 9, thereby losing the connection with the bracket 1, and rotating the baffle 2 along the rotating shaft 18 at the bottom end of the baffle 2, and finally making the baffle 2 resist the resisting rod 14, thereby completing the separation of the baffle 2 from the bracket 1.

[0062] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0063] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred methods of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
