Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of pickup truck gantry frames, specifically relating to a pickup truck half-height gantry frame. Background Technology

[0002] Pickup trucks, as vehicles that combine cargo carrying and off-road capabilities, often expand the functionality of their cargo boxes by installing roll bars. The core functions of a roll bar are to provide safety protection, enhance cargo capacity, and improve the vehicle's visual appeal. Key features include preventing deformation of the cab in the event of a rollover and serving as a fulcrum for securing cargo.

[0003] Existing pickup truck masts typically employ a one-piece frame structure consisting of uprights and crossbars, primarily used to restrict the movement of goods above and provide support points for securing them. However, they significantly lack protection for the upper left and right sides of the cargo box. During transportation, especially when the vehicle is turning, goods are highly susceptible to sliding off the sides of the cargo box, potentially causing damage or loss, and posing a safety hazard that could lead to traffic accidents. This fails to meet users' needs for comprehensive and safe cargo transportation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pickup truck semi-high gantry frame to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a pickup truck semi-high gantry, comprising: a base 1, wherein there are 4 bases 1, and the 4 bases are arranged in a rectangular distribution, the bases are arranged in groups of two, and the two groups of bases are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the pickup truck cargo box; Multiple columns are mounted on the base, and each column is matched with a specific base. Two horizontal bars are installed between two adjacent sets of the columns; Two protective mechanisms are installed between the columns in the same group. The protective mechanisms are used to protect the area formed by the columns in each group to prevent goods from falling out of the pickup truck cargo box. The protective mechanism includes: a protective side plate, which is disposed between two adjacent columns; Two side plate mounting plates are disposed on the side plates, and the two side plate mounting plates are respectively bolted to the two columns; A baffle plate is installed on the protective side plate; A shelf is provided between the mounting plate and the column.

[0006] Optionally, the column includes: Two upright plates are arranged opposite each other on the upper end of the base, and the upright plates are provided with several hollow grooves; A vertical plate connecting plate is disposed between two vertical plates, and the vertical plate connecting plate is L-shaped; The first connecting block is disposed between the two upright plates and is bolted to the two upright plates; The second connecting block is disposed between the upper part of the two upright plates and is bolted to the two upright plates; Two column mounting plates are respectively set at the outer end of the two columns, and the upper part of the column mounting plates is bolted to the columns and the lower part is bolted to the base.

[0007] Optionally, the upper part of the column is provided with an extension component. The extension component is used to increase the overall height of the column to accommodate taller goods, provide additional storage space, and realize the dual expansion of vertical space and functional area. The extension component includes two extension plates, which are bolted to the upper part of the two upright plates of the column. The extension plates have several hollow slots. A third connecting block is provided between the upper parts of the two extension plates. The two extension plates are bolted to the third connecting block.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a pickup truck semi-high gantry includes: a base 1, there are 4 bases 1, and the 4 bases 1 are distributed in a rectangular shape. The bases 1 are arranged in pairs, and the two pairs of bases 1 are respectively set on the left and right sides of the pickup truck cargo box. Multiple columns 2 are set on the base 1, and the multiple columns 2 are respectively matched with each base 1; Two horizontal bars 3 are set between two adjacent sets of columns 2; Specifically, the upper end of the crossbar 3 is provided with an installation groove. By setting the installation groove, more accessories can be installed on the upper part of the crossbar 3, improving expandability, such as providing installation space for waterproof cloth.

[0019] Two protective mechanisms 4 are set between the columns 2 in the same group. The protective mechanisms 4 are used to protect the area formed by each group of columns to prevent goods from falling out of the pickup truck box. The base 1 serves as the fundamental support component of the entire gantry frame. By connecting to the pickup truck bed, it transfers the weight of the gantry frame and the load of the cargo to the pickup truck bed, providing a stable installation foundation for the gantry frame. By utilizing multiple bases 1 to distribute the force and increase the contact area with the pickup truck bed, the overall structural stability and load-bearing capacity are enhanced.

[0020] The upright column 2 is the main vertical support structure of the gantry. It serves to support the crossbars 3, the protective mechanism 4, and to withstand the lateral pressure that the cargo may generate, ensuring the stability and strength of the gantry in the vertical direction. Through its connection with the base 1, it transfers the force of the upper structure to the base, and then to the pickup truck bed.

[0021] The crossbar 3 connects the two sets of uprights, enhancing the overall rigidity and stability of the gantry in the horizontal direction and preventing the uprights 2 from tilting or shifting under external forces. It also serves as an auxiliary support, sharing the weight of the goods to some extent. The connection of the crossbar 3 forms a stable frame structure with the uprights 2, improving the overall resistance to deformation.

[0022] The gantry frame, consisting of base 1, column 2, and crossbar 3, enhances the cargo capacity of the pickup truck bed, making it a fixed support point for the cargo and providing installation space for extended equipment.

[0023] The protective mechanism 4 is used to protect the area formed by each set of uprights 2 (i.e., the left and right sides of the upper part of the pickup truck bed), preventing goods from falling out of the pickup truck bed and ensuring the safety of goods during transportation. It effectively blocks the goods.

[0024] The protective mechanism 4 includes: a protective side plate 41, which is installed between two adjacent columns 2; Two side plate mounting plates 42 are set on the side plate 41, and the two side plate mounting plates 42 are respectively bolted to the two columns 2; A baffle plate 43 is installed on the protective side plate 41; The shelf 44 is positioned between the mounting plate 42 and the column 2.

[0025] The protective side plate 41 is the main blocking component of the protective mechanism 4. It directly blocks the goods through its own plate surface, preventing the goods from falling to the side. Through its own strength and rigidity, it prevents it from deforming when squeezed by the goods.

[0026] The side plate mounting plate 42 is the connecting component between the protective mechanism 4 and the column 2, fixing the protective side plate 41 to the column 2 to ensure the stability and reliability of the protective side plate 41 during use. The bolted connection facilitates installation and disassembly, as well as maintenance and replacement.

[0027] The baffle plate 43 is used to further enhance the blocking effect on the goods and prevent them from falling off.

[0028] Specifically, the upper part of the baffle 43 is bent into the pickup truck bed to further strengthen the top protection and fill the gap in the upper part of the protective mechanism. For stacked or irregular goods, it can limit their upward and outward displacement, improve transportation safety, and the bending process makes the plate form a structure similar to "reinforcing ribs", which enhances the strength and rigidity of the baffle 43 itself compared to a flat plate.

[0029] The shelf 44 is used to place small tools or pickup truck accessories, increasing the practicality and functionality of the gantry.

[0030] Furthermore, column 2 includes: Two upright plates 21 are arranged opposite each other on the upper end of the base 1, and the upright plates 21 are provided with several hollow grooves; The upright plate connecting plate 22 is disposed between the two upright plates 21, and the upright plate connecting plate 22 is L-shaped; In one alternative embodiment, the upright plate 21 and the upright plate connecting plate 22 are connected by welding.

[0031] The first connecting block 23 is disposed between the two upright plates 21 and is bolted to the two upright plates 21; The second connecting block 24 is disposed between the upper parts of the two upright plates 21 and is bolted to the two upright plates 21. Two column mounting plates 25 are respectively set at the outer end of the two upright plates 21, and the upper part of the column mounting plate 25 is bolted to the upright plate 21, and the lower part is bolted to the base 1.

[0032] The upright plate 21 is a major component of the column 2, and they are arranged in pairs to form a vertical support foundation. The several hollowed-out slots on it reduce the weight of the column, reduce the amount of material used, lower the cost, and do not affect the strength and rigidity of the upright plate.

[0033] The upright plate connecting plate 22 is one of the components that connects the two upright plates 21, enhancing the stability and integrity of the upright column 2 in the horizontal direction, and enabling the two upright plates 21 to work together.

[0034] The first connecting block 23 is located in the middle of the upright plate 21 and is bolted to it, which improves the shear and bending resistance of the middle section of the column, avoids relative deformation between the upright plates due to concentrated load, and ensures the overall rigidity of the column.

[0035] The second connecting block 24 is located between the upper parts of the two upright plates 21 and is bolted to the two upright plates 21. Its main function is to enhance the connection strength of the upper part of the column 2, improve the column's support capacity for the crossbar 3 and other upper structures, and ensure the stability of the overall gantry structure.

[0036] By designing a detachable structure for column 2, compared to a one-piece solid column, the amount of material used is greatly reduced, the weight is lowered, and it is adapted to the load optimization requirements of pickup trucks. Secondly, the detachable design allows each component to be produced, transported, and installed independently, reducing manufacturing difficulty. If a part is damaged later, it can be replaced individually, resulting in low maintenance costs and high efficiency.

[0037] The column mounting plate 25 is used to firmly connect the column plate 21 to the base 1, ensuring the stability and reliability of the column 2 installation, and enabling the column to effectively transfer the force of the upper structure to the base 1.

[0038] Furthermore, the upper part of the column 2 is provided with an extension component 5. The extension component is used to increase the overall height of the column 2 to accommodate taller goods, provide additional storage space, and realize the dual expansion of vertical space and functional area. The extension component 5 includes two extension plates 51, which are bolted to the upper part of the two upright plates 21 of the column 2. The extension plates 51 are provided with several hollow slots. A third connecting block 52 is provided between the upper parts of the two extension plates 51. The two extension plates 51 are bolted to the third connecting block 52. An extension connecting plate 53 is provided between the two extension plates 51. An extension storage plate 54 is provided between the third connecting block 52 and the extension plates 51.

[0039] In one alternative implementation, the expansion plate 51 and the expansion connection plate 53 are connected by welding.

[0040] The extension plate 51 is a major component of the extension assembly 5. They are arranged in pairs opposite each other to form a vertical support foundation, thereby increasing the height of the column 2. The extension plate 51 has several hollowed-out grooves, similar to the upright plate 21, which reduces weight without affecting strength.

[0041] The third connecting block 52 is used to connect the two extension plates 51, ensuring the stability and integrity of the extension plates when increasing the height of the column, so that the extension plates can work together and jointly bear external forces.

[0042] The extension connecting plate 53 is used to connect the remaining edges of the two extension plates 51 to form a modular column similar to the column 2, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the two extension plates 51 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the column structure after expansion.

[0043] Extended shelf 54 functions similarly to shelf 44, used to place small tools or pickup truck accessories, further increasing the practicality and functionality of the gantry.

[0044] In one alternative implementation, extension components 5 are provided on the upper part of each of the four columns 2. The crossbars 3 can then be removed from the columns 2 and installed on the upper part of the extension components 5, thereby increasing the overall height of the gantry and allowing the upper space of the cargo box to accommodate taller goods (such as large equipment, furniture, etc.), breaking through the traditional fixed height limitation of gantry frames.

[0045] Furthermore, a base connecting plate 221 is provided at the lower part of the upright connecting plate 22, and the base connecting plate 221 extends through the outer side of the two upright plates respectively. The base connecting plate 221, the base 1 and the pickup truck box are connected by bolts.

[0046] The base connecting plate 221 is an extension of the lower part of the upright connecting plate 22. It extends through the outer side of the two upright plates 21 respectively. Through bolt connection with the base 1 and the pickup truck box, the upright 2, the base 1 and the pickup truck box are firmly connected together, which enhances the connection strength and stability of the entire gantry and the pickup truck box, so that the gantry can be reliably fixed on the pickup truck box during use.

[0047] Furthermore, a support plate 26 is provided on the inner side of the column 2. The upper part of the support plate 26 is bolted to the upright plate 21, and the lower part is bolted to the pickup truck cargo box.

[0048] The support plate 26 is used to provide additional support for the column 2, enhance the lateral stability of the column 2, prevent the column 2 from tilting or deforming when subjected to large lateral forces, and further improve the stability and reliability of the overall structure of the gantry frame.

[0049] Furthermore, both the protective side plate 41 and the baffle plate 43 are provided with several hollowed-out grooves, and the hollowed-out grooves on the baffle plate 43 are smaller than the hollowed-out grooves on the protective side plate 41.

[0050] The perforated groove design of the protective side plate 41 and the baffle plate 43 is used to reduce the weight and save material costs. The difference in the size of the perforated groove between the two is because the protective side plate 41 is mainly used to provide strength and rigidity, while the baffle plate 43 is used to prevent the goods from falling out.

[0051] Furthermore, a first reinforcing rib 411 is provided at one end of the protective side plate 41, and the first reinforcing rib 411 is parallel to the long side of the protective side plate 41. A plurality of second reinforcing ribs 412 are arranged in a horizontal array at the other end of the protective side plate 41, and the second reinforcing ribs 412 are parallel to the short side of the protective side plate 41.

[0052] The first reinforcing rib 411 and the second reinforcing rib 412 are used to improve the strength and rigidity of the protective side plate 41 after it is hollowed out to reduce weight.

[0053] This embodiment uses a protective mechanism 4 to precisely cover the upper left and right sides of the pickup truck's cargo box. This compensates for the lack of protection on the upper sides of the cargo box provided by traditional gantry frames, effectively reducing the risk of goods falling during transportation. The modular design of the uprights 2 significantly reduces material usage and weight compared to a one-piece solid upright, better meeting the load optimization requirements of pickup trucks. Furthermore, the modular design allows for independent production, transportation, and installation of each component, reducing manufacturing complexity. If any parts are damaged later, they can be replaced individually, resulting in low maintenance costs and high efficiency.

[0054] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
