[0055] As shown in FIG1 , an embodiment provides a trunk cover 1000 for use on a vehicle, such as a pickup truck, to cover the compartment of the pickup truck.
[0056] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the trunk lid 1000 includes a top cover 100 and several side covers 200. A first connecting plate 140 is provided on one side of the top cover 100. Several side covers 200 are mounted on one side of the top cover 100 and connected to the edge of the top cover 100. These side covers 200 are arranged around the edge of the top cover 100. Each of the side covers 200 is tilted relative to the top cover 100. It will be understood that the top cover 100 and the several side covers 200 cooperate to form the trunk lid 1000.
[0057] In addition, the top cover 100 covers the end of the side cover 200 close to the top cover 100. A second connecting plate 290 is provided at the edge of each side cover 200 close to the end of the top cover 100. The second connecting plate 290 is arranged parallel to the first connecting plate 140 and is detachably connected to the first connecting plate 140.
[0058] In some embodiments, the top cover 100 may be substantially quadrilateral. The trunk cover 1000 may include four side covers 200 , which are disposed on four side edges of the top cover 100 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the top cover 100 may be configured as a pentagonal or hexagonal structure. The top cover 100 may include five or six sides. The number of side covers 200 may be equal to the number of sides of the top cover 100.
[0060] In this embodiment, the top cover 100 is placed over the side cover 200 at one end near the top cover 100, and the first connecting plate 140 is disposed on a side surface of the top cover 100 near the interior of the trunk lid 1000. This allows the connection between the top cover 100 and the side cover 200 to be located below the top cover 100. During rainy or snowy weather, rainwater can flow down the top cover 100, reducing the likelihood of rainwater flowing into the joint between the top cover 100 and the side cover 200. This, in turn, reduces the likelihood of water leakage and seepage from the trunk lid 1000 through the joint.
[0061] In the related art, the top cover 100 and the side cover 200 are spliced together by a stepped plate, and the side cover 200 does not support the top cover 100 , and the supporting force of the top cover 100 is provided by the bolts or screws at the splicing location.
[0062] In the trunk lid 1000 of the present application, the top cover 100 covers the end of the side cover 200 closest to the top cover 100. This allows the side cover 200 to provide corresponding support for the top cover 100, making the support more reliable and increasing the load-bearing capacity of the top cover 100. Furthermore, by covering the top cover 100 with the end of the side cover 200 closest to the top cover 100, installation is simplified and more convenient. This improves the manufacturing process of the trunk lid 1000, reduces the difficulty of installing the top cover 100, saves installation time, and facilitates the production of the trunk lid 1000.
[0063] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the side covers 200 may include, for example, a first side cover 210, a second side cover 220, a third side cover 230, and a fourth side cover 240. The first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 are disposed one-to-one at two opposite sides of the top cover 100, and the first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 are symmetrically disposed. The third side cover 230 and the fourth side cover 240 are disposed one-to-one at the other two opposite sides of the top cover 100.
[0064] In this embodiment, the first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 are symmetrically arranged on two sides of the top cover 100. This allows the first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 to provide stable and reliable support for the top cover 100, ensuring the support strength of the top cover 100 and improving the load-bearing capacity of the top cover 100. The third side cover 230 and the fourth side cover 240 are installed on the other two sides of the top cover 100 in a one-to-one correspondence. The third side cover 230 is connected to the pickup truck's cabin for easy installation. The fourth side cover 240 can be equipped with a switch window in conjunction with the switch of the trunk lid, allowing for better use of the trunk lid 1000 provided in this application.
[0065] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the trunk lid 1000 includes a first direction M and a second direction N that are perpendicular to each other. For example, the first direction M may be parallel to the length of the trunk lid 1000, and the second direction N may be parallel to the width of the trunk lid 1000. In the first direction M, the dimensions of the first side cover 210 near the top cover 100 and the dimensions of the second side cover 220 near the top cover 100 are both smaller than the dimensions of the top cover 100. In the second direction N, the dimensions of the third side cover 230 near the top cover 100 and the dimensions of the fourth side cover near the top cover 100 are both smaller than the dimensions of the top cover 100. This further ensures that the top cover 100 covers the ends of the first side cover 210, the second side cover 220, the third side cover 230, and the fourth side cover 240. On the one hand, the possibility of water leakage and seepage of the trunk cover 1000 can be reduced, and on the other hand, the load-bearing capacity of the top cover 100 can be improved.
[0066] 4 , in some embodiments, a first mounting plate 250 is provided at one end of the first side cover 210 proximate to the third side cover 230 and at one end of the second side cover 220 proximate to the third side cover 230. The first mounting plate 250 is provided at the edges of the first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 and extends toward the interior of the trunk lid 1000. The first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 can both be detachably connected to the third side cover 230 via the first mounting plate 250.
[0067] In this embodiment, the first and second side covers 210, 220 are removably connected to the third side cover 230 via a first mounting plate 250, facilitating assembly and disassembly and ensuring secure installation of the third side cover 230. The sides of the third side cover 230 are removably connected to the first and second side covers 210, 220, respectively. The top of the third side cover 230 is removably mounted to a side of the top cover 100 near the interior of the trunk lid 1000, while the bottom of the third side cover 230 is mounted to the vehicle interior. Furthermore, the removable connection between the first, second, and third side covers 210, 220, and 230 enhances the stability of the side covers 200, thereby improving the overall reliability and strength of the trunk lid 1000.
[0068] For example, a second mounting plate 260 is provided on both sides of the third side cover 230. Both sides of the third side cover 230 are detachably connected to the first mounting plates 250 on the first and second side covers 210 and 220 via the second mounting plates 260. By providing the first and second mounting plates 250 and 260, the third side cover 230 is connected to the first and second side covers 210 and 220, respectively, improving connection convenience. Furthermore, both the first and second mounting plates 250 and 260 are located inside the trunk lid 1000, protecting them and reducing the risk of damage or prolonged weather and sun erosion. This improves the stability of the connection between the third side cover 230 and the first and second side covers 210 and 220. Furthermore, locating the connection point inside the trunk lid 1000 simplifies the exterior structure of the trunk lid 1000, making it easier to install the trunk lid 1000 on the vehicle interior.
[0069] As shown in Figure 3, in some embodiments, the fourth side cover 240 includes an outer frame 241 and an inner panel 242. The outer frame 241 is door-shaped, and the end of the outer frame 241 closest to the top cover 100 is removably connected to the top cover 100 via a second connecting plate 290. The inner panel 242 is hinged to the interior of the outer frame 241. In this embodiment, the outer frame 241 and inner panel 242 facilitate the user's access to and placement of cargo in the vehicle compartment by opening and closing the inner panel 242, making the tailgate 1000 convenient for use after installation.
[0070] In conjunction with Figure 5, in some embodiments, a third mounting plate 270 is provided at an end of the outer frame 241 near the first side cover 210 and an end of the outer frame 241 near the second side cover 220. A fourth mounting plate 280 is provided at an end of the first side cover 210 near the fourth side cover 240 and an end of the second side cover 220 near the fourth side cover 240. The first side cover 210 and the second side cover 220 can both be detachably connected to the third mounting plate 270 of the fourth side cover 240 via the fourth mounting plate 280.
[0071] In this embodiment, the outer frame 241 is detachably connected to the first and second side covers 210 and 220, allowing the side covers 200 of the trunk lid 1000 to be connected and integrated into a single unit. This further enhances the strength, safety, and reliability of the trunk lid 1000, provides support for the top cover 100, and further increases the load-bearing capacity of the top cover 100. Furthermore, during production and installation of the trunk lid 1000, the side covers 200 can be connected first, and then the top cover 100 can be placed over the side covers 200. This simple and easy installation method reduces the difficulty of assembling the trunk lid 1000.
[0072] In some embodiments, a handle 243 may be provided at one end of the inner panel 242 away from the top cover 100, and located on the side of the inner panel 242 away from the third side cover 230. This facilitates the user to hold the inner panel 242 when opening and closing it, thereby improving the convenience and comfort of using the trunk lid 1000.
[0073] In some embodiments, waterproof glue 300 is provided at the connection between the top cover 100 and the side cover 200 and at the connection between the side covers 200, which can further improve the waterproof effect of the corresponding joints.
[0074] In addition, in the trunk cover 1000 provided in the present application, the top cover 100 covers one end of the side cover 200 close to the top cover 100. When exposed to rainy and snowy weather, rainwater will fall on the top cover 100 and flow down along the top cover 100, which can reduce the rainwater flowing to the joint between the top cover 100 and the side cover 200. Therefore, the waterproof glue 300 at the corresponding position will not frequently come into contact with rainwater, reducing the aging speed of the waterproof glue 300 and increasing the service life of the waterproof glue 300.
[0075] As shown in FIG6 , in some embodiments, the top cover 100 includes at least two panels, which can be connected in sequence to form a complete top cover 100. Therefore, when the trunk lid 1000 is not assembled for use, the top cover 100 can be disassembled into at least two panels, which can be stacked, thereby reducing the space occupied by the top cover 100 and facilitating its transportation and storage.
[0076] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , of course, in other embodiments, the top cover 100 may also be a complete structure.
[0077] As shown in Figures 3 and 6, the top cover 100 may include a first panel 110 and a second panel 120. The first panel 110 and the second panel 120 may be joined together to form the complete top cover 100. In some embodiments, the first panel 110 and the second panel 120 may be riveted together using rivet bolts to achieve a fixed connection. The first panel 110 may be positioned near one end of the fourth side cover 240.
[0078] In other embodiments, the top cover 100 may further include three, four, or six panels, etc. Multiple panels may be connected in sequence to form a complete top cover 100 .
[0079] In other embodiments, the first panel 110 and the second panel 120 may be fixedly connected by screw connection, welding or clamping.
[0080] 7 and 8 , a water channel 1101 may be provided on one side of the first panel 110 near the second panel 120. During use, the water channel 1101 can be used to receive rainwater that seeps through the seam connecting the first and second panels 110, 120, thereby reducing the probability of rainwater entering the vehicle compartment through the seam connecting the first and second panels 110, 120.
[0081] In this embodiment, the water channel 1101 is further configured with an opening structure 1102, and the second panel 120 can cover the opening structure 1102. Therefore, the rainwater received by the water channel 1101 is mainly rainwater that seeps into the joint between the first panel 110 and the second panel 120, thereby preventing rainwater from directly falling into the water channel 1101 and increasing the amount of rain in the water channel 1101, thereby reducing the impact on the water channel 1101's ability to receive infiltrated rainwater.
[0082] In some embodiments, the first panel 110 may include an integrated first panel body 111 and a bent portion 112. The bent portion 112 may be located at one end of the first panel body 111 near the second panel 120. The water channel 1101 may be formed by bending the bent portion 112.
[0083] In some embodiments, the bending portion 112 may include a first bending plate 1121, a second bending plate 1122, and a third bending plate 1123, which are arranged in sequence. The first bending plate 1121 is connected between the first panel body 111 and the second bending plate 1122 and extends toward the side of the first panel body 111 near the side cover 200. The second bending plate 1122 can serve as the bottom of the water channel 1101 and is opposite the opening structure 1102. The third bending plate 1123 is opposite and parallel to the first bending plate 1121. Thus, the first bending plate 1121, the second bending plate 1122, and the third bending plate 1123 can cooperate to form a U-shaped water channel 1101.
[0084] In other embodiments, the bending portion 112 may include a first bending plate 1121 and a third bending plate 1123, the third bending plate 1123 is connected to the side of the first bending plate 1121 away from the first panel body 111, and the first bending plate 1121 and the third bending plate 1123 can cooperate to form a V-shaped water guide groove 1101.
[0085] 1 and 9 , in some embodiments, the water channel 1101 may extend along the second direction N and may be substantially equal to the extension length of the top cover 100 in the second direction N. In the second direction N, both ends of the water channel 1101 are provided with water outlets 1103 , which may communicate with the external environment to drain rainwater from the water channel 1101 .
[0086] In other embodiments, a water outlet 1103 may also be provided at one end of the water channel 1101 to discharge rainwater in the water channel 1101 .
[0087] A deflector plate 130 is also positioned at the water outlet 1103 of the water channel 1101. In some embodiments, one end of the deflector plate 130 may be connected to the third curved plate 1123, and the other end of the deflector plate 130 may extend toward the first curved plate 1121. The water outlet 1103 may converge between the deflector plate 130 and the first curved plate 1121. Furthermore, the deflector plate 130 may gradually tilt away from the other end of the deflector plate 130, from one end near the third curved plate 1123 to one end near the first curved plate 1121. The deflector plate 130 can guide the water flow in the water channel 1101, directing it toward the water outlet 1103 for output.
[0088] As shown in Figures 7 and 8, in some embodiments, the second panel 120 may include an integral second panel body 121 and an adapter plate 122. The adapter plate 122 may be located at an end of the second panel body 121 near the first panel 110 and protrude relative to a side of the second panel body 121 near the side cover 200. In some embodiments, the second panel body 121 and the first panel body 111 may be located substantially on the same plane.
[0089] The adapter plate 122 can be attached to the side of the first bent plate 1121 near the third bent plate 1123. The adapter plate 122 and the first bent plate 1121 can be fixedly connected by riveting, screw connection, or clamping, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the first panel 110 and the second panel 120. It is understood that the connecting seam between the first panel 110 and the second panel 120 can refer to the gap between the adapter plate 122 and the first bent plate 1121.
[0090] In some embodiments, waterproof glue 300 is further provided between the adapter plate 122 and the first bending plate 1121, which can further reduce the problem of rainwater leakage in the connection seam between the adapter plate 122 and the first bending plate 1121, that is, reduce the possibility of rainwater leakage in the connection seam between the first puzzle panel 110 and the second puzzle panel 120, and thereby reduce the risk of rain leakage in the trunk lid 1000.
[0091] Two escape notches 1211 are further configured at one end of the second panel body 121 near the adapter plate 122. The two escape notches 1211 can be provided at both ends of the second panel body 121 in the second direction N.

The water outlets 1103 can be exposed through the corresponding escape notches 1211 and communicate with the external environment to drain rainwater from the water guide trough 1101.
[0092] In other embodiments, the water channel 1101 may be a sunken groove structure provided on the first panel 110 and located at an end of the first panel 110 close to the second panel 120. The end of the first panel 110 provided with the water channel 1101 may be extended to a side of the second panel 120 close to the side cover 200 by providing a step structure or the like, so that the opening structure 1102 of the water channel 1101 is covered by the second panel 120.
[0093] As shown in Figures 1, 2, and 10, in some embodiments, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 150 are provided on the side of the top cover 100 facing the side cover 200. The plurality of reinforcing ribs 150 may be arranged in a grid pattern, and the ends of some of the reinforcing ribs 150 may be connected to the first connecting plate 140. This strengthens the strength of the top cover 100, further improving its load-bearing capacity and reducing the probability of the top cover 100 sags when bearing load, that is, reducing the probability of deformation of the top cover 100, and reducing the impact on the overall strength of the trunk lid 1000.
[0094] The embodiment further provides a pickup truck, comprising a cab, an open compartment, and the trunk lid 1000 provided in the above embodiment, wherein the trunk lid 1000 is mounted on the open compartment.
