The plate cover has the advantage of high strength and effectively prevents different items from being mixed together.

[0008] When the front and rear folding assemblies are in the folded state, the distance between the two sets of end plate assemblies is relatively close. Usually, the two sets of end plate assemblies are dependent on the middle connecting assembly, and the body of the foldable outdoor camper is in the unfolded state. In this state, one plate cover is still placed in the first vertical positioning groove, and the other plate cover is placed in the end plate assembly. In this way, the plate cover can be effectively stored and fixed when the foldable outdoor camper is in the folded state, thereby improving the portability of the foldable outdoor camper when it is in the folded state.

[0009] Compared to existing technologies, this foldable camper features a sheet metal cover to cover the opening, which not only increases the cover's strength but also improves its flatness, making it more suitable for placing items when used as a table. The sheet metal cover also serves as a partition within the interior, further enhancing its versatility, reducing the number of parts required for the foldable camper, lowering costs, and improving its compactness. When the foldable camper is folded, the sheet metal cover can be stowed securely, making it more portable.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a foldable outdoor camping vehicle comprises a foldable vehicle body 100 , a pull rod 200 , five sets of wheels 300 and two sheet material covers 400 .

[0030] The vehicle body 100 further comprises two sets of end plate assemblies 100a and a set of mid-section connecting assemblies 100b. Both sets of end plate assemblies 100a are connected to the mid-section connecting assemblies 100b via a set of front and rear folding assemblies 100c. A pull rod 200 is connected to one of the end plate assemblies 100a. Two sets of wheels 300 are mounted on the bottom walls of both end plate assemblies 100a, while a set of wheels 300 is mounted on the bottom wall of the mid-section connecting assemblies 100b.

[0031] like Figures 4 to 8As shown, the middle connecting assembly 100b includes a frame 1 and a top beam 2. The frame 1 further includes a bottom beam portion 1a and two upright portions 1b. The top beam 2 and the frame 1 are connected by a detachable structure. This allows the top beam 2 to be installed or not, depending on the items to be stored. Generally, removing the top beam 2 provides a more spacious storage space for the vehicle body 100. The accompanying drawings in the specification show that the detachable structure connects the ends of the top beam 2 to the two upright portions 1b via a snap-fit ​​structure. The snap-fit ​​structure includes a slot 3 located on the top beam 2 and a plug 4 located on the upright portions 1b and embedded in the slot 3. The plug 4 has a snap-fit ​​groove 5 on its side. The top beam 2 is equipped with a snap-fit ​​joint 6 that matches the snap-fit ​​groove 5.
