  • Publication number: 20240375725
    Abstract: A utility rack for use with a truck may incorporate removable panels to partially or fully enclose the cargo bed of the truck. The utility rack may comprise a structural frame for supporting cargo, and removable panels for attaching to the structural frame to form a shell. Portions of the structural frame may be available to support cargo while the removable panels are attached to the structural frame. In some versions of the utility rack, the removable panels may be attached to and detached from the structural frame while cargo is supported by the structural frame. In some versions the utility rack with the removable panels attached creates a weather resistant shell on the cargo bed of the truck.

  • Publication number: 20230406215
    Abstract: A cargo container for a vehicle roof has dual latch handles, with one latch handle on each side of the cargo container. The cargo container comprises a lid that may be in closed or open configurations. In the closed configuration, the latch handles may be in a locked or unlocked state. In the unlocked state the latches may be latched or unlatched. The cargo container may be reconfigured from closed to open configurations when either of the latches is in the unlocked and unlatched state, even if the other latch is in the locked state or the unlocked, latched state. This allows a user to open the cargo container without walking around to both sides of a vehicle to unlocking both latches. The cargo container does not require a dual hinge system to function in the described manner.
