Automatic Bed Cover Door Systems for a Truck - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011344 titled 'Automatic Bed Cover Door Systems for a Truck

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a truck that has a bed section located at the rear of a cab section. The bed section is bounded by opposing upward-extending sidewalls. The truck also includes a bed cover that sits over the bed section and has a door portion for selective accessibility to the bed section. The door portion can be moved between open and closed positions by an automatic bed cover drive assembly.

  • The patent is for a truck with a bed section and a bed cover with a movable door portion.
  • The bed section is located at the rear of the cab section and is bounded by upward-extending sidewalls.
  • The bed cover sits over the bed section and covers at least the sidewalls.
  • The door portion of the bed cover can be moved between open and closed positions.
  • The movement of the door portion is controlled by an automatic bed cover drive assembly.
  • The drive assembly allows the door portion to move at different velocities within a predetermined variance.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Pickup trucks with improved bed covers for easy access to the bed section.
  • Trucks used for transportation or delivery purposes that require secure and convenient access to the bed section.
  • Trucks used for outdoor activities or camping where easy access to the bed section is needed.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a convenient and secure way to access the bed section of a truck.
  • Protects the bed section from weather elements and theft.
  • Allows for easy loading and unloading of cargo in the bed section.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved functionality and convenience for truck owners.
  • Enhanced security for the bed section of the truck.
  • Protection of cargo from weather conditions.
  • Versatile access to the bed section with adjustable door positions.


Original Abstract Submitted

a truck is provided that includes a bed section located rear of a cab section. the bed section is bounded on each side by opposing first and second upward-extending sidewalls, respectively. the truck also includes a truck bed cover that sits over the bed section on at least the first and second upward-extending sidewalls, and includes a door portion to create selective accessibility to the bed section of the pickup truck. the door portion is movable with respect to the first and second upward-extending sidewalls between open and closed positons via an automatic bed cover drive assembly that moves the door portion between open and closed positons according to a plurality of velocities within a predetermined variance.
