  • Patent number: 5782522
    Abstract: A securable and removable cover for vehicle with an open cargo area such as a pick-up truck that has a front wall, tailgate and two side walls, the cover comprising of two panels that are hingedly attached to each other at their inside edge along a hinge connection and which span across the cargo area so as to enclose it. The covers generally span across from the tailgate to the front wall with the outer edge of each panel resting on top of a side wall. A securing means then secures the outer edge of each panel to the side wall on which it is resting when the panel is in a resting position. So as to prevent the cover from being moved vertically there is a restraining means engaging the cover and preventing it from being moved vertically when at least one panel is lying flat across the cargo area. To remove the cover, both panels are folded upwards until the restraining means is disengaged and the cover is then simply lifted upwards removing it from the pick-up truck.
