Abstract

A vehicle container structure and an all-terrain vehicle, where the vehicle container structure includes a container body provided with a maintenance window which is provided with a cover plate. The cover plate has a first end hinged or detachably coupled to a bottom plate or a first side plate of the container body, and a second end detachably coupled to the bottom plate or a second side plate, opposite to the first side plate, of the container body.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A vehicle container structure, comprising:
a cover plate; and
a container body coupled to the cover plate, and comprising a bottom plate and a first side plate,
wherein the bottom plate and the first side plate are angularly coupled and together define a maintenance window, and the cover plate covers the maintenance window;
wherein:
the cover plate comprises a first plate body and a second plate body coupled at a threshold angle;
an end, away from the first plate body, of the second plate body is hinged to the first side plate of the container body.

2. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein the bottom plate is located above a vehicle engine, and the maintenance window is corresponding to a maintenance position of the vehicle engine.

3. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein an end, away from the second plate body, of the first plate body is detachably coupled to the bottom plate.

4. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein the threshold angle is an obtuse angle or acute angle close to 90 degrees.

5. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein:
the container body further comprises a second side plate opposite to the first side plate;
the cover plate further comprises a third plate body, the second plate body and the third plate body being coupled to opposite two ends of the first plate body and extending to a same side of the first plate body; and
an end, away from the first plate body, of the third plate body is detachably coupled to the second side plate.

6. The vehicle container structure according to claim 5 , wherein the maintenance window runs through the bottom plate along a length direction or width direction of the bottom plate.

7. The vehicle container structure according to claim 5 , wherein:
the cover plate and the bottom plate of the container body are a same component.

8. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein the second plate body at least partially overlaps with the first side plate.

9. The vehicle container structure according to claim 8 , wherein a height of the second plate body is equal to a height of the first side plate, and the end, away from the first plate body, of the second plate body is hinged to a top of the first side plate.

10. The vehicle container structure according to claim 8 , further comprising a support column, a first end of the support column being hinged to the end, away from the first plate body, of the second plate body, and the top of the first side plate being provided with a support groove for accommodating a second end of the support column.

11. The vehicle container structure according to claim 10 , wherein the second end of the support column is insertable into the support groove and allows the cover plate to remain in an open state.

12. The vehicle container structure according to claim 10 , wherein a top end of the second plate body is provided with an accommodation groove for accommodating the support column.

13. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , further comprising screws, a plurality of mounting holes being formed along a periphery of the first plate body, and the screws passing through the mounting holes and being coupled to the bottom plate.

14. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of snaps arranged along a periphery of the first plate body, the bottom plate being provided with a plurality of snap slots for accommodating the snaps.

15. The vehicle container structure according to claim 1 , wherein hinges are arranged at two sides of a top of the first side plate and between the cover plate and the top of the first side plate.

16. An all-terrain vehicle, comprising a vehicle container structure,
wherein the vehicle container structure comprises:
a cover plate; and
a container body coupled to the cover plate, and comprising a bottom plate and a first side plate,
wherein the bottom plate and the first side plate are angularly coupled and together define a maintenance window, and the cover plate covers the maintenance window;
wherein:
the cover plate comprises a first plate body and a second plate body coupled at a threshold angle;
an end, away from the first plate body, of the second plate body is hinged to the first side plate of the container body.
