[0002] Pickup trucks are a common type of vehicle used for loading cargo. However, when loading heavy or high cargo, it is very easy to cause a rollover accident. In order to reduce the probability of passengers being injured during a rollover, some car owners choose to install a gantry on the pickup truck trunk. In addition to protecting the rear windshield, the gantry can also serve as a decoration.

[0003] The prior art discloses a variety of gantries for pickup truck trunks, such as the automobile roll cage disclosed in patent CN207565533U (essentially a gantry) and the retractable roll cage disclosed in patent CN213892138U (essentially a gantry). However, the gantries in the above patents are not designed to reduce the risk of rear-end collisions with the following vehicles, which is not conducive to the owner driving the pickup truck in an environment with poor visibility. In addition, the components of the above gantry structure are connected and fixed by welding or one-piece molding, which occupies a large space during transportation or storage, resulting in high manufacturing costs.

[0004] This shows that the existing pickup truck tail box gantry needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0024] The utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] The utility model provides a pickup truck tail box gantry, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes a left guardrail 1 for connecting to the left side of the pickup truck trunk, a right guardrail 2 for connecting to the right side of the pickup truck trunk, and a connecting guardrail 3; the left end of the connecting guardrail 3 is detachably connected to the left guardrail 1 by screws, and the right end of the connecting guardrail 3 is detachably connected to the right guardrail 2 by screws; a brake light 31 is provided on the side of the connecting guardrail 3 away from the cab.

[0026] Specifically, the left guardrail 1 is in the shape of a "chicken leg" as a whole, and the height of the end close to the cab is higher than the height of the end away from the cab. Four connecting vertical plates 11 connected to the left side of the pickup trunk are arranged at the bottom in the length direction. Screw holes are provided on the connecting vertical plates 11. With the cooperation of the screw and nut assembly, the left guardrail 1 is detachably mounted on the left side of the pickup trunk. The left guardrail 1 is made by sheet metal processing technology, which reduces the requirements for the use of molds and has good plasticity. The right guardrail 2 and the left guardrail 1 are mirror-symmetrical structures, which will not be repeated here. The connecting guardrail 3 is flat as a whole and is also made by sheet metal processing technology. Its left end is installed on the front end of the left guardrail 1 (the end close to the cab) by screws, and its right end is installed on the front end of the right guardrail 1 by screws. The left guardrail 1, the right guardrail 2 and the connecting guardrail 3 form a gantry structure, which is detachably mounted on the pickup trunk. Two brake lights 31 are installed by screws on the side of the connecting guardrail 3 away from the cab. The two brake lights 31 are respectively located on the left end side and the right end side of the connecting guardrail 3 (viewed from the pickup trunk to the cab).

[0027] Through the above structural design, the utility model has the following advantages: (1) By setting the brake light 31 on the side of the connecting guardrail 3 away from the cab, when the pickup truck is driving in an environment with poor visibility, especially when the rear vehicle is close to the vehicle and it is difficult to see the low-position brake light of the pickup truck, it can provide a relatively high-position brake reminder to the rear vehicle, thereby reducing the risk of rear-end collision. (2) The gantry is set up as three parts: the left guardrail 1, the right guardrail 2, and the connecting guardrail 3. On the one hand, it can reduce the packaging volume, reduce storage space and transportation costs, and also reduce the cost of packaging materials; on the other hand, when a part of the gantry is severely deformed due to an accident and needs to be repaired, while other parts are not deformed and do not need to be repaired, the owner does not need to repair or replace the entire gantry, thereby reducing the owner's maintenance costs.

[0028] Furthermore, a storage frame 4 is detachably connected to the top of the guardrail 3 via screws.

[0029] Furthermore, the storage frame 4 includes an upper return tube 41, a lower return tube 2, a left connecting plate 43 and a right connecting plate 44; the upper end of the left connecting plate 43 is fixedly connected to the left side of the upper return tube 41, and the lower end thereof is fixedly connected to the left side of the lower return tube 2; the upper end of the right connecting plate 44 is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper return tube 41, and the lower end thereof is fixedly connected to the right side of the lower return tube 2; a storage net 45 is provided on the lower return tube 2; the left connecting plate 43 and the right connecting plate 44 are both detachably connected to the top of the connecting guardrail 3 by screws.

[0030] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the left connecting plate 43 and the right connecting plate 44 are connected and fixed with the upper return tube 41 and the lower return tube 2 by existing methods such as screw connection, welding, and riveting. The storage net 4 is installed on the top of the lower return tube 2 by welding or screw fixing. In order to have a larger carrying capacity, a well frame (not shown in the figure) for supporting the storage net 4 is welded inside the lower return tube 2. The well frame is composed of two horizontal and two vertical metal round tubes. The upper return tube 41 and the lower return tube 2 are made of metal round tubes or metal square tubes through bending and welding processes; the left connecting plate 43 and the right connecting plate 44 are in a "C" shape as a whole, and are made of metal plates through bending and stamping processes. A plurality of screw holes are opened at the bottom of the left connecting plate 43 and the right connecting plate 44, and are installed on the top of the connecting guardrail 3 by screws in a detachable solution. The storage frame 4 adopts a detachable design, so that the owner can purchase and install it separately according to needs, or remove it when it is not needed.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to prevent the strapping belts used to secure the luggage from being punctured or scratched by the edge of the upper return tube 41 or the lower return tube 2, the upper return tube 41 and the lower return tube 2 are preferably formed by bending a round tube with a circular cross-section.

[0032] Furthermore, the storage frame 4 also includes a mesh front baffle 46 and a mesh rear baffle 47; the upper end of the mesh front baffle 46 is fixedly connected to the front end of the upper return tube 41, and the lower end thereof is fixedly connected to the front end of the lower return tube 2; the upper end of the mesh rear baffle 47 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the upper return tube 41, and the lower end thereof is fixedly connected to the rear end of the lower return tube 2.

[0033] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the upper return tube 41 and the lower return tube 2 are staggered in the forward direction of the pickup truck, and are respectively connected and fixed to the upper return tube 41 and the lower return tube 2 by welding. The mesh front baffle 46 is an obtuse-angled shape as a whole, and six rectangular ventilation holes are opened in the middle; the mesh rear baffle 47 is an L-shaped shape as a whole, and five trapezoidal ventilation holes are opened in the middle; these eleven ventilation holes can reduce wind resistance and wind noise to a certain extent.

[0034] Furthermore, a spotlight mounting structure 471 for mounting a spotlight is provided on the storage frame 4. The spotlight mounting structure 471 is specifically four circular holes opened on the mesh rear baffle 47. After the spotlight is installed, the brightness of the lighting and driving safety can be improved.
