Loading space cover and motor vehicle

Abstract

A loading space cover for a rear loading space in a motor vehicle, includes at least one cover element for the at least partial covering of an upper side of the rear loading space. The cover element defines an upper limit of the loading space. To enable a hazard warning triangle to be carried in the motor vehicle with the least possible modification of components of the motor vehicle, the motor vehicle includes at least one fastening unit arranged on an underside of the cover element facing the loading space for the direct or indirect fastening of an accessory, preferably a hazard warning triangle, to the cover element.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(8) FIG. 1 shows a schematic and perspective representation of an exemplary embodiment for a motor vehicle having a loading space cover 2 for a rear loading space 3 of the motor vehicle 1 and a hazard warning triangle arranged in a casing 4 and not therefore shown.

(9) The loading space cover 2 has a cover element 5 for covering an upper side of the rear loading space 3 which defines an upper limit of the loading space 3. The cover element 5 may be of traditional design. The cover element 5 is depicted as semi-transparent in FIG. 1.

(10) Furthermore, the loading space cover 2 has a fastening unit 6 for the indirect fastening of the hazard warning triangle to the cover element 5 via the casing 4 arranged on an underside of the cover element 5 facing the loading space 3. The hazard warning triangle is therefore arranged on the fastening unit 6 indirectly, so via the casing 4, or fastened to the cover element 5 via said casing. The fastening unit 6 is connected to the cover element 5 in a substance-bonded manner, for example. The fastening unit 6 is produced from a plastic.

(11) The fastening unit 6 has two clamping units 7 and 8 arranged spaced apart from one another, each of which is designed for the indirect, partial, form-fitted receiving of an end portion of the hazard warning triangle via the casing 4. The design of the clamping units 7 and 8 is shown more accurately in FIGS. 2 to 5. The clamping units 7 and 8 are, in particular, configured in such a manner and arranged on the cover element 5 in such a manner that the hazard warning triangle, or else the casing 4 receiving said hazard warning triangle, can be mounted parallel to an extension plane of the cover element 5 on the clamping units 7 and 8, and removed therefrom, by way of a movement of the hazard warning triangle or of the casing 4.

(12) Each clamping unit 7 or 8 has a clamping element 9 which is arranged and configured in such a manner that the clamping element 9 is elastically deformed by indirect contact via the casing 4 with the hazard warning triangle at least upon attachment of the hazard warning triangle to the fastening unit 6 and removal of the hazard warning triangle from the fastening unit 6.

(13) FIG. 2 shows a schematic and perspective representation of the loading space cover 2 shown in FIG. 1 obliquely from below. The design of the clamping units 7 and 8 is easier to recognize. Each clamping unit 7 or 8 has a connection surface 10 which is provided with a structure 11. The respective clamping unit 8 or 9 is connected to the covering unit 5 via the respective connection surface 10, e.g. in a substance-bonded manner. In particular, each clamping unit 7 or 8 is welded and/or adhered to the covering unit 5.

(14) The casing 4 is cuboid in design and has two casing parts 12 and 13 of different sizes connected to one another. Each clamping unit 7 and 8 encloses the respective casing part 12 or 13 on three sides and on the end side, so that each clamping unit 7 and 8 forms a receiving means into which the respective casing part 12 or 13 is inserted in a form-fitting manner. The clamping units 7 and 8 are configured in such a manner and arranged on the cover element 5, so that the hazard warning triangle, or else the casing 4 receiving said hazard warning triangle, can be attached to the clamping units 7 and 8, and removed therefrom, by a movement of the hazard warning triangle or the casing 4 in accordance with the double arrow 14 parallel to an extension plane of the cover element 5.

(15) FIG. 3 shows a schematic and perspective sectional representation of the loading space cover 2 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in the region of the clamping unit 7. The structuring 11 of the connection surface 10 of the clamping unit 7 is easier to recognize. The structuring 11 means that the connection surface 10 is enlarged, as a result of which the substance-bonded connection between the clamping unit 7 and the cover element 5 is strengthened. In addition, a form fit is produced by the structuring 11 between the clamping unit 7 and the cover element 5, which likewise strengthens the connection between the clamping unit 7 and the cover element 5.

(16) In addition, it can be seen that the clamping unit 7 exhibits a further clamping element 15 which is arranged in respect of the casing 4, or else the casing part 12, opposite the clamping element 9. The clamping element 9 is longer in design than the other clamping element 15. The clamping element 9 encloses the casing 4 on two adjacent sides, as a result of which the position of the casing 4 shown relative to the clamping unit 7 is secured. The other clamping unit 8 of the fastening unit 6 which is not shown in FIG. 3 is configured to correspond to the clamping unit 7, but in a manner mirror-inverted thereto.

(17) FIG. 4 shows a schematic and perspective representation of a clamping unit 8 of the loading space cover shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. It can be seen that the clamping unit 8 is configured in accordance with the clamping unit shown in FIG. 3, but in a manner mirror-inverted thereto.

(18) FIG. 5 shows a further schematic and perspective representation of the clamping unit 8 shown in FIG. 4.
