Loading-Carrying Vehicle Superstructures TRIZ Cases

A tonneau cover hinge assembly uses interchangeable sections with varying cross-sections to enable quick panel removal without tools.

A swing and drop tailgate assembly uses a four-bar linkage to enable multiple access trajectories for vehicle cargo loading.

A movable platform system with roller bearings slides along parallel rails to position storage containers at the rear of a pickup truck cargo bed.

A locking unit mechanism distributes stress across rotation pins to reduce flank thickness and overall weight.

A tailgate security bracket assembly encloses the tailgate pin using a retainment plate and lateral plate to prevent unauthorized removal.

Hinged panels conform to truck bed contours to prevent displacement, resolving stability versus adaptability trade-offs.

Actuators apply consistent tension to flexible covers, preventing premature wear from manual positioning errors.

Elongate retrieval tool secures inside vehicle body panels via a mounting bracket and latch mechanism for compact storage.

Punch rivet connections join corner pillars to front wall panels, eliminating pre-drilling steps and removing protruding rivet heads for a smooth inner surface.

An accordion extension wall bridges the gap between a truck bedliner and tailgate, preventing corrosive chemical spills from contacting metal surfaces.

A shaft and lever assembly actuates a tiltable cabin.

Adjustable cross-locking prevents excessive side wall bulging during transport while maintaining easy opening and closing operations.

Two plane separations replace multiple surfaces in the cab stabilizer assembly interface, reducing machining operations and alignment complexity.

A rotary latch mechanism disengages striker pins via a push button and rotatable rod for easy tailgate operation.
