Abstract: A lid assembly for a truck bed with two opposite vertical side walls includes a lid adapted for covering the truck bed, the lid being movable in a first direction between an open and closed position, two scissor hinges adapted for mounting the lid to the truck bed, each of the two scissor hinges having a first hinge member adapted for being slidably and pivotably connected to a respective side wall of the truck bed at a first end and being pivotably connected to the lid at a second end, and a second hinge member which is slidably and pivotably connected to the lid at a first end and adapted for being pivotably connected to the respective side wall at a second end. The assembly further includes an opening element adapted for, upon actuation, applying a force to at least one of the first ends of the hinge members in a second direction, which extends in an angle of between 85 and 90 degrees with respect to the first direction, to move the lid in the first direction.

Abstract: A lid assembly for a truck bed (40) with two opposite vertical side walls (41, 42), comprising a lid (10) adapted for covering the truck bed, said lid (10) being movable in a first direction (A) between an open and closed position, two scissor hinges (20) adapted for mounting the lid (10) to the truck bed (40), each of said scissor hinges (20) having a first hinge member (21) adapted for being slidably and pivotably connected to a respective side wall of the truck bed at a first end (25) and being pivotably connected to the lid at a second end (27), and a second hinge member (22) which is slidably and pivotably connected to the lid at a first end (26) and adapted for being pivotably connected to the respective side wall at a second end (24), and an opening element (2) adapted for, upon actuation, applying a force to at least one of the first ends (25, 26) of the hinge members (21, 22) in a second direction (B), which extends in an angle (?) of between 85 and 90 degrees with respect to the first direction (A),

Abstract: The invention concerns a motor vehicle (1), preferably a truck or a lorry, comprising a battery exchange station (2), the battery exchange station (2) comprising at least one battery (3), an actuator element (4) and a connecting element (5) arranged between the battery (3) and the actuator element (4), the actuator element (4) being movable from a first to a second position, such that in the first position the at least one battery (3) is arranged completely under the motor vehicle (1), while in the second position the at least one battery (3) is arranged completely outside, preferably behind, the motor vehicle (1).
