  • Patent number: 9975501
    Abstract: A multi-purpose bed liner and deck topper includes a shell that may be connected to a vehicle cargo bed. The shell is movable between a bed liner position and an inverted deck topper position. The shell includes a shell base and shell sidewalls extending from the shell base. A first shell endwall is detachably connected to a rear end of the shell and a second shell endwall is pivotably connected to a front end of the shell. The multi-purpose bed liner employs slide rails attached to the shell sidewalls and that are connectable to vehicle bed sidewalls to facilitate moving the shell between the bed liner position and the deck topper position. A pivot connector attached to the shell and pivotally connecting the shell to the slide rails enables the shell to be inverted when moving the shell between the bed liner position and the deck topper position.
