Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a pickup truck, in particular to a special hinge structure for a pickup truck cargo box door. Background Art
[0002] With the opening of the pickup truck market, the number of people facing pickup trucks has increased, and pickup truck customers have gradually increased their demands for the convenience of cargo box doors and multi-scenario use. The cargo box doors of existing pickup trucks generally use central or side hinges, and it takes two people to take and put the cargo box doors, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and extremely inconvenient to operate. In addition, the hinges and slow-down of the cargo box doors and cargo boxes of existing pickup trucks are installed separately, which makes installation difficult, and some slow-down structures (such as strut-type slow-down) have external leakage, which affects the appearance; some slow-down structures such as torsion bars can be installed internally, but they are difficult to install. Therefore, how to design an articulated structure that is convenient for disassembling the cargo box door and can take into account the slow-down and aesthetics of the cargo box door is crucial to improving the quality of pickup trucks.

[0011] The beneficial effect is that the utility model integrates the damper in the right hinge assembly so that the pickup truck cargo box door dedicated hinge structure of the utility model not only realizes the hinge connection between the cargo box and the cargo box door, but also integrates the slow-down function. When the cargo box door is opened, the damper can realize the slow-down of the cargo box door; when the cargo box door is closed, the gravity moment reserved by the damper is released to provide assistance for closing the cargo box door. In addition, the damper is fixed on the sheet metal under the taillight of the cargo box, and the installation position is relatively concealed, which not only improves the aesthetics, but also reduces the difficulty of installation.
[0012] Preferably, the left hinge assembly includes a mounting shaft arranged at the rear end of the cargo box and a left bracket, a left shaft sleeve, and a left chain plate arranged on the mounting shaft, and the left bracket is fixed to the rear end of the cargo box. The left hinge assembly has a guiding function, which facilitates the installation and removal of the cargo box door.
[0013] Preferably, the left link plate has the same structure as the right link plate, and a left connecting piece is provided on the third connecting portion of the left link plate. The left connecting piece is a circular ring structure, and the left shaft sleeve is provided in the left connecting piece, and the left bracket is inserted in the left shaft sleeve, thereby realizing the connection between the left bracket and the left chain plate; the third connecting portion of the chain plate and the right chain plate is a V-shaped structure, so that the two chain plates have a certain lateral deformation, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly.
[0014] Preferably, the right sleeve also has a bottom plate, and the installation groove is fixed on the bottom plate; the right hinge assembly also includes a limiter arranged outside the third connection portion of the right chain plate, the limiter is a U-shaped structure, and the bottom plate is located inside the limiter. More preferably, a U-shaped groove matching the limiter is provided on the groove wall of the installation groove, so that the limiter is inserted into the limiter, which is convenient for installation and removal, and further reduces the difficulty of taking and placing the cargo box door.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the utility model integrates the damper in the right hinge assembly, so that the special hinge structure for pickup truck cargo door of the utility model not only realizes the hinge connection between cargo box and cargo door, but also integrates the slow-down function. When the cargo door is opened, the damper can realize the slow-down of the cargo door; when the cargo door is closed, the gravity moment reserved by the damper is released to provide assistance for closing the cargo door. In addition, the damper is fixed on the sheet metal under the taillight of the cargo box, and the installation position is relatively concealed, which not only improves the aesthetics, but also reduces the difficulty of installation.
