[0002] In vehicles used for transportation, a tarpaulin or roof is installed on the upper part of the vehicle's cargo compartment. This roof is a folding rigid panel connected to one or both sides of the cargo compartment by hinges. Currently, the hinges at both ends of the existing cargo compartment roofs are mostly two-stage hinges, meaning two consecutive hinges are connected by chains and driven by four hydraulic cylinders to open and close the roof. However, this existing hinge connection and drive system inevitably requires the roof hinges to occupy a significant amount of height and width space to ensure that the roof's movement trajectory matches the trajectory of the tilting drive. Furthermore, the existing tilting drive and hinge connection methods are structurally complex, resulting in a high failure rate and cost. Utility Model Content

[0031] Example 1

[0032] This embodiment provides a covered carriage. Upper side beams are provided on the upper part of the side panels on both sides of the carriage. At least one hinge shaft 9 is provided on either the left or right side side beam of the carriage, and the cover 12 is mounted on the hinge shaft 9. When there is one cover 12, it is mounted on the left or right side side beam via the hinge shaft 9. When there are two covers 12, they are respectively located on the left and right side side beams. At least one tilting drive device is provided at the front and rear of the carriage, driving the hinge shaft 9 to rotate. It should be noted that when the rear of the carriage is a rear-hinged door and it is inconvenient to install a tilting drive device there, the tilting drive device is only located at the front of the carriage, driving the hinge shaft 9 to rotate, thereby rotating the cover 12.

[0033] The covered carriage provided in this embodiment has the cover 12 directly fixed to the hinge shaft 9 on the upper part of the upper beam. The hinge shaft 9 is directly driven to rotate by a tilting drive device, thereby causing the cover 12 to tilt around the hinge shaft 9. This method only requires directly driving the hinge shaft 9 to rotate, without considering the running trajectory of the tilting drive device, making the driving method simple and flexible. At the same time, since the cover 12 is directly fixed to the hinge shaft 9, there is no need to set up a continuous hinge connection structure, which greatly reduces the height occupied by the hinge connection of the cover 12, and also reduces the space occupied by the hinge connection in the lateral direction.

[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, to facilitate the connection between the hinge shaft 9 and the tilting drive device, the hinge shaft 9 should extend out of the carriage. That is, at least one portion of the hinge shaft 9 located at the front and rear of the carriage extends forward or backward to the front or rear of the carriage. A gear 5 is provided on the axle segment extending out of the axle length direction of the hinge shaft 9. A rack 4 that meshes with the gear 5 is provided at the front or rear of the carriage. The rack 4 is fitted against the front or rear of the carriage, and a telescopic device that drives the rack 4 to move is connected to it. When the telescopic device extends or retracts, it causes the rack 4 to move left and right or up and down. The movement of the rack 4 can drive the gear 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the hinge shaft 9, which is fixed to the gear 5, to rotate. Finally, the rotation of the hinge shaft 9 causes the top cover 12 to tilt.

[0035] More specifically, in this embodiment, the telescopic device is a hydraulic cylinder 3, and the front and rear parts of the carriage are respectively provided with top beams, with the hydraulic cylinder 3 mounted on the top beams. Of course, the hydraulic cylinder can also be a pneumatic cylinder, a telescopic motor, or other telescopic drive device. It should be noted that when the telescopic device is mounted on the top beam, the rack is arranged laterally, located above or below the gear.

[0036] More specifically, in this embodiment, in order to bring the rack 4 closer to the gear, a clearance adjustment frame 7 is provided at the lower part of the rack 4, and a tensioning wheel 8 is provided on the clearance adjustment frame 7, and the rack 4 moves between the tensioning wheel 8 and the gear.

[0037] More specifically, in order to provide stable support, the gap adjustment frame 7 includes a fixing plate, the vertical plate of the fixing plate is attached to and fixed to the carriage, the horizontal plate of the fixing plate is located above the vertical plate and extends away from the carriage; the top wheel 8 is fixed to the horizontal plate.

[0038] More specifically, in this embodiment, the vertical plate is provided with vertically extending strip-shaped holes, the upper and lower parts of which are fixed to the carriage by adjusting bolts 6. The design of these strip-shaped holes not only reduces installation difficulty and facilitates aligning the adjusting bolts 6 with the pre-set screw holes on the carriage, but also allows for easy adjustment of the height of the vertical plate when needed.

[0039] Specifically, to prevent the rack from extending beyond the lateral width of the carriage, the rack is vertically positioned, and the telescopic device is vertically mounted on the carriage, driving the rack to move up and down.

[0040] More specifically, in order to conceal the rack and the telescopic device, the uprights of the carriage are hollow tubes, and the telescopic device and the rack are located inside the hollow tubes.

[0041] More specifically, when it is inconvenient to install the tilting drive device at the rear of the carriage, the tilting drive device is installed at the front of the carriage, and the shaft used to drive the top cover 12 to tilt should also extend out of the front of the carriage.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, in order to prevent the hinge shaft 9 from moving, the hinge shaft 9 is also connected to a hinge shaft 9 fixing seat, and a sleeve 10 is provided on the hinge shaft 9 fixing seat, and the hinge shaft 9 rotates in the sleeve 10.

[0043] More specifically, in this embodiment, in order to rotatably connect the top cover 12, which is located away from the hinge shaft 9, the top cover 12 can also be connected to the upper beam by a hinge. The pivot of the hinge should be basically consistent with the axis of the hinge shaft 9. Of course, in addition to the hinge, other hinge connection methods can also be used.

[0044] Of course, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model and should be protected by the present utility model.
