A pickup truck that includes a cab section located in front of a bed section is provided. The pickup truck comprises a tonneau cover that covers the bed section. The tonneau cover includes a plurality of panel sections; and wherein each of the plurality of panel sections is movable with respect to each other to allow access to, or conceal the bed section underneath. At least one prop rod assembly includes a longitudinally extending first rod having a first end and a second end. The first end of the longitudinally extending first rod is pivotably and removably coupled to a side rail that is secured to the first side of the bed section, and the second end of the longitudinally extending first rod is located opposite the first end and pivotably coupled to the first latch assembly of the third panel section.

This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle including a tonneau cover with moveable panels. In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a motor vehicle, including: a cargo area; and a tonneau cover including a first side panel, a second side panel, and a central panel between the first and second side panels, wherein the tonneau cover is configurable in a first configuration in which the central, first side, and second side panels provide a cover for a top of the cargo area, and wherein the tonneau cover is configurable in a second configuration in which portions of the first side panel and the second side panel are raised relative to the first configuration.

A mounting structure for a pickup bed cover is provided in this disclosure, which includes two mounting rods and a folding cover plate. The two mounting rods are in parallel, and the cover plate is fixed with the mounting rods together. The mounting structure for the pickup bed cover further includes a supporting rod, a first hinge seat and a second hinge seat. The first hinge seat is arranged on the mounting rods and the second hinge seat is arranged on the cover plate, one end of the supporting rod is fixedly hinged with the first hinge seat, and the other end of the supporting rod is detachably hinged with the second hinge seat. The disclosure has advantages as follows: with one end of the supporting rod being fixedly hinged and the other end of the supporting rod being detachably hinged, a stable mounting structure is obtained and it is more convenient to mount.

This disclosure provides an apparatus with a folding and fixing structure for covering a carriage. The cover assembly includes multiple hinged movable plates that can be folded in a standing position or flattened to cover the carriage. A fixing assembly includes at least two locking components located on opposite sides of the cover assembly folded in the standing position. A traction assembly with at least two traction components configured to connect the cover assembly respectively to two locking components. The traction components apply pulling forces through the locking components to keep the cover assembly in the standing position stably rested on a movable cover plate laid flat on the carriage, avoiding wear and tear between the cover assembly and the carriage.

A support member configured for placement on a top surface of a bed wall defining a cargo area of a vehicle and below a bed cap so that the support member is stacked at least partially in between the bed cap and the top surface of the bed wall; and a bed cap assembly having a support member configured for placement on a top surface of a bed wall defining a cargo area of a vehicle; and a bed cap configured for placement on the support member so that the support member is stacked at least partially in between the bed cap and the top surface of the bed wall.

A tonneau cover for use on a cargo box of a pick-up truck is provided. The tonneau cover may include at least one panel and a latching assembly located on the at least one panel. The latching assembly selectively secures and releases the at least one panel. The latching assembly includes at least one shoe. The at least one shoe is configured for moving at least a portion of the latching assembly to release the at least one panel. The at least one shoe is movable between an extended use position and a retracted stowed position with respect to the at least one panel. And the at least one shoe is spring biased to its extended use position.

Novel techniques are provided for implementing a tonneau cover system. A tonneau cover system might include a first side rail configured to be coupled to a side wall of a bed of a truck, a first connection plate attached to and extending from the first side rail, a second connection plate, an extension plate extending from and attached to the second connection plate, and a cover for covering the bed of the truck and coupled to the extension plate. The first connection plate might include a recess on a bottom surface of the first connection plate. The second connection plate might include a first protrusion mirroring the first recess on the first connection plate. The first protrusion of the second connection plate might removably engage with the recess on the bottom surface of the first connection plate to couple the second connection plate to the first connection plate.

A detachable tonneau cover panel assembly for a vehicle tonneau cover includes a panel portion structured to be detachably connectible to a panel of a tonneau cover, and at least one mounting bracket attached to an interior side of the panel portion and structured to enable mounting of an object thereon. An optional shield may be attached to the panel portion to enclose and protect object(s) mounted on the mounting bracket(s). The tonneau cover panel assembly is structured to be easily detachable from other panels of the tonneau cover and man-portable so that a user may use the tonneau cover panel assembly as a carrying case for any objects mounted on the mounting brackets attached to the panel portion.

Described is a truck toolbox-bed cover interface constructed to seals the cargo area of a vehicle between a truck bed cover and a storage container, where the truck toolbox-bed cover interface does not obstruct access to the handles on the back side of a storage container. Some implementations can include a toolbox integrated with a truck toolbox-bed cover interface, a bedcover integrated with a truck toolbox-bed cover interface, and a complete integrated assembly including a toolbox, a bedcover, and a truck toolbox-bed cover interface. Some implementations can include a toolbox with a cooler rail or a tactical rail.

A tonneau cover that includes a first panel and a second panel. The first panel is arranged rearward of the second panel in vehicle position when the tonneau cover is in a first position, each of the first panel and the second panel comprise a top surface and an opposing bottom surface. The first panel and the second panel are movable into a second position where the bottom surface of the first panel is juxtaposed with the bottom surface of the second panel.
