Abstract: A pickup truck bed is covered by forward and rearward panel members that are slideably mounted with respect to the upstanding vertical sidewalls of the truck bed and telescopically mounted with respect to one another. Each panel has downwardly turned sidewalls. A first panel support member is secured to each sidewall of the forward panel member and a second panel support member is secured to each sidewall of the rearward panel. The first panel support member slides atop the second and both are captured by a track member secured to the vertical sidewalls of the truck bed. A weatherstrip-covered lip member at the leading edge of the first panel and another weatherstrip-covered lip member at the trailing edge of the rear panel serve to protect the truch bed from moisture when the panels are closed. Different embodiments are secured by different locking devices.
Abstract: A cover assembly for vehicle bed cover includes a plurality of rigid, telescoping cover members longitudinally movable and guide tracks mounted along the side of the vehicle bed with respective cover members extending over the front and rear ends of the vehicle bed for selectively exposing either the front portion or the rear portion of the bed or, both such portions. There are at least two support slide assemblies carried by each cover member with one of the slide assemblies engaging each guide track to provide sliding support to the longitudinal movement of the cover member. Each slide assembly is laterally adjustably mounted to the cover so that the slide assembly may be laterally adjusted for receipt by a respective guide track.
Abstract: A cover assembly for a vehicle bed includes a plurality of rigid, telescoping cover members longitudinally movable on guide track members mounted along the side of the vehicle bed with latching apparatus for releasably securing the respective cover members extending over the front end and the rear end of the vehicle bed to permit opening of the cover to expose either the front portion or the rear portion of the vehicle bed, or both such portions. A first cover member releasably fixable in a position covering the front end of the vehicle bed is receivable under an adjacent cover member and a second cover member releasably fixable in a position covering the rear end of the vehicle bed is receivable over an adjacent cover member.
