Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of travel and living, specifically to a tailgate structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern recreational lifestyle, attaching living cabins to vehicles to form motorhomes or setting up campsites in specific locations has become an increasingly popular lifestyle choice. Living cabins integrate essential living facilities such as beds, toilets, and kitchens, providing users with a relatively complete living space. However, to ensure the motorhome's performance in complex road conditions and to enable rapid setup and dismantling of campsites, the overall size of the living cabin is strictly limited, resulting in very limited interior space. In actual use, users need to carry a large amount of personal items, outdoor gear, and food, and the cramped interior space cannot meet diverse storage needs. Traditional living cabins rely solely on limited cabinets and drawers for storage, resulting in severely insufficient storage capacity and cluttered, inconveniently accessible items. Utility Model Content
[0003] The present invention aims to provide a tailgate structure to improve the storage capacity of the living compartment.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a tailgate structure, including a tailgate body and an interior panel, the tailgate body is hinged to the living compartment access passage side and can open and close the access passage side, the inner side of the tailgate body is provided with several storage cavities, and the interior panel is hinged to the tailgate body and can cover the storage cavities.
[0005] The beneficial effects of this solution are: by setting up a storage cavity inside the tailgate body, the tailgate space can be fully utilized without changing the overall volume and layout of the living cabin, thereby significantly improving the storage capacity of the living cabin and optimizing the user's travel and living experience.
[0006] Furthermore, a base plate is slidably installed on the floor of the living quarters, which can slide out of the living quarters' access passage to form an extension platform.
[0007] Beneficial effects: By sliding a base plate onto the living quarters floor, an additional extension platform is created, increasing the usable area of the living quarters.
[0008] Furthermore, there are two tailgate bodies, which are hinged to both sides of the access passage and can form hard barriers on both sides of the expansion platform.
[0009] Furthermore, the interior trim panel is hinged to the lower side of the tailgate body.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a cover plate, which is hinged to the free end of the base plate and can be fixed perpendicularly to the free end of the base plate to form a front shield for the expansion platform.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a locking component, which is located between the tailgate body and the interior trim panel and can lock the interior trim panel onto the tailgate body.
[0012] Furthermore, the free end of the interior trim panel can fold near the side corner of the living compartment. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 4 This is a three-dimensional view of the open state of Embodiment 3 of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0017] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method:
[0018] The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings include: living compartment 10, tailgate body 11, interior panel 12, side corner 121, bottom plate 21, and cover plate 22.
[0019] Example 1
[0020] Example 1 is basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 1-2 As shown, Figure 1-2 The tailgate structure shown includes a tailgate body 11, an interior panel 12, and a locking mechanism. The tailgate body 11 is hinged to the side of the access passage of the living compartment 10 and can block the access passage. Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, two tailgate bodies 11 are provided. The two tailgate bodies 11 are respectively hinged to both sides of the access passage of the living quarters 10, and can cooperate with each other to block the access passage, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the tailgate body 11 has several storage compartments on its inner side. The storage compartments are used to store items that need to be stored. The interior trim panel 12 is hinged to the lower side of the tailgate body 11 and can cover the storage compartments, thereby ensuring the airtightness of the storage compartments and preventing dust from entering the storage compartments and affecting the cleanliness of the stored items.
[0021] The locking component includes a first locking part and a second locking part. The first locking part and the second locking part cooperate to lock the interior panel 12 and the tailgate body 11 through mechanical locking or magnetic attraction. In this embodiment, the locking method is magnetic attraction. The first locking part is a permanent magnet fixed to the inside of the tailgate body 11, and the second locking part is an iron piece fixed to the inside of the interior panel 12 and corresponding to the first locking part. When locking, the magnetic attraction of the permanent magnet to the iron piece is used to lock the interior panel 12 and the tailgate body 11.
[0022] Example 2
[0023] Example 2 is basically the same as Example 1, except that, as Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a base plate 21, which is slidably mounted on the floor of the living quarters 10 and can slide out through the access passage of the living quarters 10 to form an extension platform. A cover plate 22 is hinged to the free end of the base plate 21, and a support member is hinged to the side wall of the cover plate 22. The free end of the support member is detachable from the side wall of the base plate 21. When the free end of the support member is connected to the side wall of the base plate 21, the cover plate 22 is perpendicular to the base plate 21, forming a front shield of the extension platform.
[0024] The method of use is as follows: First, unfold the tailgate body 11 and release the lock between the interior panel 12 and the tailgate body 11, so that the interior panel 12 is suspended below the tailgate body 11, forming hard barriers on both sides of the expansion platform; then, pull out the bottom plate 21 and fix the cover plate 22 vertically to the free end of the bottom plate 21 through the support member, forming the front barrier of the expansion platform. The expansion platform, the front barrier of the expansion platform and the hard barriers on both sides form a balcony for the user. The storage cavities of the tailgate body 11 on both sides of the balcony are used to store items such as reading materials or snacks. When the user is resting on the balcony, he / she can easily take out the items he / she needs from the storage cavities on both sides without having to return to the living compartment 10, reducing the inconvenience of walking back and forth.
[0025] Example 3
[0026] Example 3 is basically the same as Example 1, except that, as Figure 4 As shown, the free end of the interior panel 12 near the side corner 121 of the living compartment 10 can be folded. When the living compartment 10 is placed on the pickup truck bed and the pickup truck tailgate is open, the pickup truck tailgate is connected to the pickup truck bed via a linkage. When the tailgate body 11 is unfolded, the pickup truck tailgate needs to be opened first. At this time, if the free end of the interior panel 12 near the side corner 121 of the living compartment 10 can be folded, when it is necessary to temporarily close the tailgate body 11, the tailgate body 11 can be rotated without first flipping the interior panel 12.
