  • Patent number: 7878576
    Abstract: An airflow deflector assembly for an open bed truck or like vehicle including a plurality of preferably two cover sections each having a base and an attachment assembly cooperatively disposed and structured to adjustably interconnect the two cover sections facilitating their selective positioning into any one of a plurality of operative orientations. The selected operative orientation corresponds to the width of the trailing end of the open bed of the vehicle so as to so as to establish a substantially continuous air deflecting surface over the trailing end and thereby increasing the aerodynamics of the vehicle. The cooperative structuring of the attachment assemblies facilitate an adjustable sliding interconnection there between such that the bases of each cover section may be reciprocally positioned toward and away from one another to assume the preferred operative orientation corresponding to the width of the truck bed.
