[0002] A canopy system is an environmental protection facility used on dump trucks. When a dump truck is in motion, if the construction waste in the truck bed is not covered, the waste will be blown up by airflow and float / fall everywhere, causing environmental pollution and increasing dust levels in construction areas and along the route. To solve the aforementioned pollution problem of dump trucks, existing technologies involve installing tarpaulins or canopy systems on the truck bed to seal it and prevent the waste from being blown up by airflow.
[0003] Structurally, a vehicle canopy system typically includes tracks mounted on the truck bed, multiple sets of track support devices that shift back and forth along the tracks, a drive mechanism that moves the track support devices, and a canopy mounted on the track support devices. Driven by the drive mechanism, the multiple sets of track support devices move horizontally along the tracks, and the canopy is unfolded or folded. Therefore, the track support devices play a crucial role in the canopy system. Existing canopy systems have the following problems with their track support devices: the tracks are in a relatively open environment, meaning there are no obstructions above them. This allows dirt and dust to fall onto the tracks during loading, unloading, and transportation, causing obstruction. Furthermore, the exposed tracks of existing support devices are easily deformed by impacts, also leading to difficulties in opening and closing the canopy system. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and design a new structure for the track support devices to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0018] In order to further understand the invention content, characteristics and effects of the present utility model, the following examples are described in detail.
[0019] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the track support device of the canopy system, including with the car hopper side 6 fixedly connected base plate 10, the upper part of base plate 10 is bent to the outside. Base plate 10 as the main structure of the track support device, for supporting the auxiliary components, ensure sufficient structural strength and with car hopper side 6 connection, in this embodiment, a plurality of mounting holes are provided on the vertical plate body of base plate 10, base plate 10 is fixedly connected with car hopper side 6 by a plurality of mounting bolts 1, or base plate 10 and car hopper side 6 are connected by welding.
[0020] The bottom of the bent part of base plate 10 is provided with a track 2, and further comprises a support frame 11, the outer track wheel 2 and the inner track wheel 7 are installed at the root of the support frame 11, and the outer track wheel 3 and the inner track wheel 7 are located at the outer side and the inner side of the track 2 respectively. Thus, the support frame 11 and its auxiliary components can move along the length direction of the track 2 under the pulling driving action of the driving device of the canopy system.
[0021] In this embodiment, the support frame 11 is L-shaped and is made of a metal plate, the outer track wheel 3 and the inner track wheel 7 are installed on the horizontal part of the support frame 11, and the wheel seat 4 is also installed on the inner side of the root of the support frame 11, the outer track wheel 3 is installed below the wheel seat 4, and the structural strength of the outer track wheel 3 can be enhanced by arranging the wheel seat 4.
[0022] The outer edge of the bent part of base plate 10 is bent downward, a connecting plate 9 is installed and fixed between the downward bent part and the vertical part of base plate 10, and the track 2 is installed and fixed below the connecting plate 9 by a hanging plate. In this embodiment, the hanging plate includes a base hanging plate 5 and a track hanging plate 8, the top edge of the base hanging plate 5 is fixedly connected with the bottom surface of the connecting plate 9, the bottom edge of the track hanging plate 8 is fixedly connected with the top of the track 2, and the bottom edge of the base hanging plate 5 is fixedly connected with the top edge of the track hanging plate 8 by a bolt.
[0023] In this embodiment, the track 2 is an integral extruded aluminum profile with a circular cross section, and a T-shaped groove 14 is formed integrally on the top of the track 2. The bottom of the track hanging plate 8 is T-shaped, and the bottom edge of the track hanging plate 8 is slid into the T-shaped groove 14. The hollow structure of the track 2 can improve the lightness of the canopy system. By setting the T-shaped groove 14 and sliding the bottom of the track hanging plate 8 into the T-shaped groove 14, the integrity of the combination of the track hanging plate 8 and the track 2 can be improved, and the protruding parts caused by connection can be avoided, which can improve the smoothness of the outer track wheel 3 and the inner track wheel 7 when rolling along the track 2.
[0024] Since the base hanging plate 5 and the track hanging plate 8 are connected by bolts, when the track 2 is deformed or other problems occur, the track 2, the support frame 11 and its attached parts can be easily disassembled and maintained.
