Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of roller shutter cover technology, and particularly relates to a side rod for a car tailgate roller shutter cover and a car tailgate roller shutter cover. [Background Technology]

[0002] In recent years, with the development of automobiles, pickup trucks with open cargo boxes have become increasingly popular. A pickup truck is a light-duty truck with an open cargo box behind the cab, and the side panels of the cargo box are integrated with the cab. It is a passenger and cargo vehicle that looks like a car in the front and has a cargo box in the back.

[0003] For greater convenience, car trunks are typically equipped with a car roller shutter cover. A utility model patent application (application number 2024221866569) describes a car roller shutter cover that includes a tailgate and slide rails positioned opposite each other at the ends of the tailgate. Sliding mounting grooves are provided at both ends of the tailgate, and a locking tongue is movably mounted within these grooves. The slide rails have locking holes. During opening and closing, the tailgate causes the locking tongue to slide along the slide rail. When the locking tongue slides to the locking hole, a spring pushes it into the locking hole, engaging with it to restrict the tailgate's movement. However, with this type of car roller shutter cover, the locking tongue directly collides with the slide rail each time it enters the locking hole. Over time, this can easily damage the slide rail, requiring replacement of the entire rail. Furthermore, the small contact area between the locking tongue and the slide rail hole wall makes the locking tongue prone to damage, making installation and replacement inconvenient and costly.

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0038] To make the technical problems solved, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0039] When ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" are mentioned in the embodiments of this utility model, unless they actually express the meaning of order according to the context, they should be understood as being used only for differentiation.

[0040] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0041] Specific embodiments, such as Figure 1-3 The illustrated side rod of a car trunk roll-up cover includes: a main body 1, which includes a guide cavity 11 and a first connecting cavity 12; a reinforcing vertical rib 2, which is disposed between the guide cavity 11 and the first connecting cavity 12; a slot hole 3, which is disposed on the reinforcing vertical rib 2 and communicates with the guide cavity 11 and the first connecting cavity 12; a locking tongue stop 4, one end of which is detachably installed on the periphery of the slot hole 3, and the other end extends toward the first connecting cavity 12; and a detachable mounting mechanism 5, which is disposed between the locking tongue stop 4 and the reinforcing vertical rib 2, for detachably mounting the locking tongue stop 4. The addition of reinforcing vertical ribs enhances the overall structural strength. When the tailgate is opened and closed, the latch moves along the guide cavity with the tailgate leaf. When the latch moves along the guide cavity to the position opposite to the slot hole, it extends into the first connecting cavity and collides with the latch stop to block the movement of the tailgate leaf. This prevents the latch from directly colliding with the side bar when stopped, reducing damage to the side bar, extending its service life, and lowering operating costs. Furthermore, the latch stop can be detachably installed on the side bar, making it easy to install and replace if damaged.

[0042] Specifically, the latch stop 4 includes: a first mounting portion 41, which is parallel to the side of the reinforcing rib 2 near the guide cavity; a blocking stop portion 42, one end of which is connected to the first mounting portion 41, and the other end extends towards the first connecting cavity 12; and a stop guide portion 43, one end of which is connected to the end of the blocking stop portion 42 away from the first mounting portion 41, and the other end extends downward at an incline towards the guide cavity 11. During the movement of the latch along the guide cavity and into the first connecting cavity, the inclined surface of the latch comes into contact with the stop guide portion 43 and gradually extends into the first connecting cavity until it collides with the blocking stop portion 42, effectively protecting the side rod. It is also installed in contact with the reinforcing rib 2 through the first mounting portion 41. Furthermore, the latch stop 4 is detachable, facilitating machining such as turning and polishing of the stop guide portion 43.

[0043] In addition, the detachable mounting mechanism 5 includes: a mounting groove 51, which is located on the side of the reinforcing vertical rib 2 near the guide cavity 11 and communicates with the slot hole 3; the first mounting part 41 is embedded in the mounting groove 51, making the structure more stable; a first connecting hole 52, which is located on the reinforcing vertical rib 2 and communicates with the mounting groove 51; a second connecting hole 53, which is located on the first mounting part 41 and corresponds to the first connecting hole 52; and a first connecting screw 54, which is located on the first connecting hole 52 and the second connecting hole 53. This facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the locking tongue stop 4.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to make the locking tongue stop 4 more securely installed, the locking tongue stop 4 also includes a second mounting part 44 embedded in the mounting groove 51. The second mounting part 44 is connected to the end of the stop guide part 43 away from the blocking stop part 42, and is located on the same horizontal line as the first mounting part 41.

[0045] More specifically, the detachable mounting mechanism 5 further includes: a third connecting hole 55, which is located on the reinforcing vertical rib 2 and communicates with the mounting groove 51; a fourth connecting hole 56, which is located on the second mounting part 44 and corresponds to the second connecting hole 53; and a second connecting screw 57, which is located on the third connecting hole 55 and the fourth connecting hole 56. This not only makes the structure more stable, but also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the locking tongue stop 4.

[0046] Furthermore, the guide cavity 11 and the first connecting cavity 12 are integrally formed, and the main body 1 also includes a second connecting cavity 13 integrally formed on the side of the first connecting cavity 12 away from the guide cavity 11, and a connecting edge 14 integrally formed on the side of the second connecting cavity 13 away from the first connecting cavity 12. The structure is stable and the production cost is low.

[0047] Furthermore, the guide cavity 11 has an inclined lamp mounting groove 51 on the side away from the first connecting cavity 12, and an illumination opening 6 on the side of the lamp mounting groove 51 away from the guide cavity 11. Lighting devices such as light strips can be installed through the illumination opening 6 to illuminate the tail box.

[0048] Specifically, an accessory mounting groove 7 is provided above the first connecting cavity 12. More specifically, a bracket fixing groove 8 is provided below the first connecting cavity 12.

[0049] like Figure 4 The illustration shows a car trunk roll-up cover, including a roll-up cover tailgate 9 and two oppositely arranged side bars as described above. The roll-up cover tailgate 9 has two latches 10 that can move towards their respective side bars. The roll-up cover tailgate 9 can drive the latches 10 to move along a guide cavity 11. When the latches 10 move along the guide cavity 11 to a position opposite to the slot hole 3, the latches 10 are extended into the first connecting cavity 12 by the force of a return spring and collide with the latch stop 4 to block the movement of the roll-up cover tailgate 9. This application also uses a roll-up cover lock structure with application number 2024221866569 to unlock the latches.
