Implementation
[0026] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The same parts are represented by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the words "front", "rear", "left", "right", "upper" and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the words "bottom surface" and "top surface", "inside" and "outside" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0027] The existing pickup truck compartment covers usually use hinges to achieve the folding and unfolding actions between adjacent panels. Some hinges are usually rigid hinges. Rigid hinges are prone to bumping during use, causing the rigid hinges to wear and tear, and causing the rigid hinges themselves to crack or be damaged, affecting the connection effect between adjacent panels and the stability of the overall structure. At the same time, the internal structure of the existing elastic strips is mostly arranged at the connection between two adjacent panels. After the panels are pivoted and folded, the internal structure of the elastic strips is exposed to the external environment during vehicle driving. During driving, it is easily affected by external environmental factors, causing the internal structure of the elastic strips to be deformed or damaged, affecting the connection effect between adjacent panels and the stability of the overall structure. In addition, there is usually an opening between adjacent panels, which makes it easy for the panel to damage the operator's hands when pivoting and folding, and the overall safety is not high. When the elastic strip is used as a hinge to assist the rotation of the hood, long-term auxiliary rotation is likely to cause deformation of the elastic material, affecting the flatness of the hood when folding and unfolding, and the overall service life is not high.
[0028] Example 1, reference Figure 1As shown, a compartment cover is provided, including a panel 1, the panel 1 including a first panel 11 and a second panel 12, the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are both rectangular or trapezoidal panels, the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are placed on the top of the compartment and unfolded, and the first panel 11 can be folded toward the second panel 12, a hinge assembly 2 is provided at the connection between the first panel 11 and the second panel 12, the hinge assembly 2 is used for the first panel 11 to pivotally fold toward the second panel 12, the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are both provided with a clamping groove for connecting with the hinge assembly 2, and both ends of the hinge assembly 2 are clamped with the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 respectively.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the hinge assembly 2 includes a rubber strip 21, a first end of the rubber strip 21 is connected to the first panel 11, and a second end of the rubber strip 21 is connected to the second panel 12. The thickness of the rubber strip 21 is greater than the thickness of the panel. When the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are unfolded, the end of the rubber strip 21 facing the interior of the pickup truck compartment extends toward the pickup truck compartment to the outside of the panel, and the end of the rubber strip 21 extending to the outside of the panel is an arc segment or a curve segment or an irregular line segment. The thickness of the panel is set to T1, and the thickness of the rubber strip 21 is set to T2. When the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are in the unfolded state, the thickness of the rubber strip 21 is greater than the thickness of the panel, that is, T2>T1. During use, by setting the thickness of the rubber strip 21 to be greater than the thickness of the panel, the rubber strip 21 can better wrap the two ends of the panel when the panel is folded, and at the same time increase the deformation ability of the rubber strip 21 to ensure the stability of the panel when folded.
[0030] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment of the rubber strip 21, one end of the rubber strip 21 facing the pickup truck compartment extends toward the pickup truck compartment to the outside of the panel, and the end of the rubber strip 21 extending to the outside of the panel is provided with ribs 25, and the ribs 25 are distributed throughout the rubber strip 21 along the length direction of the rubber strip 21.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are provided with a first groove 14, and the first end and the second end of the rubber strip 21 are both provided with a first part 3, and the first groove 14 is adapted to the shape of the first part 3, so that the first part 3 of the first end of the rubber strip 21 is snap-fitted / plugged into the first groove 14 of the first panel 11, and the first part 3 of the second end of the rubber strip 21 is snap-fitted / plugged into the first groove 14 of the second panel 12, thereby completing the connection between the rubber strip 21 and the panel.
[0032] like Figure 4As shown, the first groove 14 of the first panel 11 is provided with a first block 15, and the first block 15 is arranged in an "L" shape. The first block 15 is plugged into the third groove 23 arranged in the first part 3 of the first end of the rubber strip 21, and the first groove 14 of the second panel 12 is provided with a second block 16, and the second block 16 is arranged in an "L" shape. The second block 16 is plugged into the third groove 23 arranged in the first part 3 of the second end of the rubber strip 21. The first block 15 and the second block 16 are respectively clamped with the corresponding third groove 23, thereby preventing the two ends of the rubber strip 21 from falling off when folded, thereby improving the connection strength between the rubber strip 21 and the first panel 11 and the second panel 12.
[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, in a second embodiment of the connection method between the rubber strip 21 and the first panel 11 and the second panel 12, the first end and the second end of the rubber strip 21 are provided with second grooves 22. When connecting, the connection between the first panel 11, the second panel 12 and the rubber strip 21 is completed by snapping or plugging the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 with the two second grooves 22 of the rubber strip 21 respectively. The operation is simple and the installation is convenient.
[0034] like Figure 6 As shown, the rubber strip 21 is provided with a first cavity 24 inside itself, and an abutment portion 4 is provided in the installation cavity, and the abutment portion 4 includes a first body 41 and a second body 42, and the first end of the first body 41 includes a first protrusion 411, and the first protrusion 411 is engaged or plugged with the inside of the first part 3 of the first end of the rubber strip 21, and / or, the first end of the second body 42 includes a second protrusion 421, and the second protrusion 421 is engaged or plugged with the inside of the first part 3 of the second end of the rubber strip 21;
[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421 is provided with a plurality of convex strips 43. By providing the convex strips 43 on the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, the convex strips 43 are equidistantly / unequally arranged along the outer peripheral wall of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, thereby increasing the friction between the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421 and the inner wall of the first cavity 24 of the rubber strip 21, so that the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421 can stably follow the rubber strip 21 to fold and rotate, and the overall stability is high.
[0036] like Figure 6As shown, the second end of the first body 41 is provided with a raised portion 412, and the second end of the second body 42 is provided with a recessed portion 422. During installation, the raised portion 412 of the first body 41 is abutted or plugged with the recessed portion 422 of the second body 42 to prevent the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 from being misaligned when unfolded when placed on the first panel 11 and / or the second panel 12, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.
[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, a raised portion 412 is provided at the second end of the first body 41, and a third rod 44 is provided at the raised portion 412. A recessed portion 422 is provided at the second end of the second body 42. When the raised portion 412 and the recessed portion 422 are abutted and installed, the third rod 44 abuts against one side of the recessed portion 422, so that the raised portion 412 and the recessed portion 422 are rotationally locked to prevent the recessed portion 422 from rotating with the third rod 44 as the rotation center point, thereby preventing the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 from being misaligned when unfolded when placed on the first panel 11 and / or the second panel 12, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.
[0038] like Figure 7 As shown, a second embodiment of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, the first protrusion 411 is provided with a first rod 4111, and the second protrusion 421 is provided with a second rod 4211, the first rod 4111 and the second rod 4211 are made of non-elastic material, the first rod 4111 and the first protrusion 411 are integrally formed, and the first rod 4111 is arranged in the first cavity 24 of the first part 3 of the first end of the rubber strip 21, and the second end is arranged in the first cavity 24 of the first part 3 of the second end of the rubber strip 21, the first rod 4111 and the second rod 4211 are respectively connected to the interior of the two ends of the rubber strip 21, thereby improving the connection strength of the abutting portion 4 when the rubber strip 21 is folded, so that the abutting portion 4 can stably follow the rubber strip 21 to fold and rotate, and the overall stability is high.
[0039] like Figure 8 As shown, in Example 2 of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, a plurality of protrusions 431 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421. By providing the protrusions 431 on the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, the protrusions 431 are equidistantly / unequally arranged along the outer peripheral wall of the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421, thereby increasing the friction between the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421 and the inner wall of the first cavity 24 of the rubber strip 21 during rotation, so that the first protrusion 411 and the second protrusion 421 can stably follow the rubber strip 21 to fold and rotate, with high overall stability, while reducing the friction when the first protrusion and the second protrusion are plugged in and clamped.
[0040] In this embodiment, the unfolding setting and folding setting of the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are realized by the rubber strip 21 and the abutment portion 4 arranged in the internal first cavity 24, and the thickness of the rubber strip 21 is set to be greater than the thickness of the panel, so as to improve the tensile strength of the rubber strip 21 placed on one side of the pickup truck compartment when folded, thereby preventing the rubber strip 21 on one side of the pickup truck compartment from being deformed or broken during long-term use, thereby affecting the overall folding effect, and improving the service life of the rubber strip 21. At the same time, the abutment cooperation between the locking protrusion and the locking groove realizes the misalignment of the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 when unfolded, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.
[0041] like Fig. 9 As shown, a second embodiment of a compartment cover is provided, and its basic structure is the same as that of the compartment cover provided in the first embodiment, except that: it includes a panel 1, the panel 1 includes a first panel 11, a second panel 12 and a third panel 13, the first panel 11, the second panel 12 and the third panel 13 are all rectangular or trapezoidal panels, and the first panel 11, the second panel 12 and the third panel 13 are foldable when unfolded, that is, the first panel 11 is pivoted toward the second panel 12, and the combination of the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 is pivoted toward the third panel 13, so that the folded first panel 11 is folded. The top surface of the panel 11 is placed on the top of the second panel 12, and after the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 are combined, the bottom of the first panel 11 is placed on the top surface of the third panel 13, and the connection between the first panel 11 and the second panel 12 and the connection between the second panel 12 and the third panel 13 are provided with hinge components 2, and the hinge components 2 are used for the first panel 11 to pivot toward the second panel 12 and the second panel 12 to pivot toward the third panel 13. The first panel 11, the second panel 12 and the third panel 13 are all provided with a first groove 14 for connecting with the hinge component 2.
