The top of the top post 102 is on the same horizontal plane as the bottom 100 and the rotatable connection of the cover plate 200, which can ensure that the cover plate 200 remains on the same horizontal plane as the ground after it is closed. In addition, a gasket is provided at the top of the top post 102. The gasket is made of elastic or flexible material and can play a buffering role for the cover plate 200.

[0033] Furthermore, limit posts 103 are respectively provided on the outer sides of the storage box 101, and limit members 104 are respectively provided on the inner sides of the bottom 100 for abutting against the limit posts 103. The length of the storage box 101 can be extended by the cooperation of the limit posts 103 and the limit members 104. In addition, a locking block 105 is provided on the outer side of the storage box 101 near the other end of the cover plate 200, and an elastic locking member 106 is provided on the inner side of the bottom 100 to engage with the locking block 105. This can improve the operation feel when the storage box 101 is pulled out and put away, and improve the comfort of use.

[0034] Furthermore, the storage box 101 is provided with several partitions 107, which divide the interior of the storage box 101 into several spaces, thereby improving the internal utilization rate of the storage box 101; in addition, a handle 108 is provided at the outer end of the storage box 101 to facilitate the storage box 101 being pulled out from the bottom 100 (the rear of the pickup truck).

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
