Abstract

A cover element for motor vehicles, with two longitudinal sides and two transverse sides running transversely thereto, and at least one first pivot hinge. The cover element can be connected at least over part of the longitudinal sides to a first bearing in the region of the vehicle side wall approximately parallel to a vehicle floor, the first pivot hinge, which is arranged parallel to the transverse side, dividing the cover element into a first cover part and a second cover part. At least the first cover part can be connected to the vehicle side wall via a second bearing and/or to the vehicle floor via a third bearing and can be fixed approximately at right angles to the vehicle floor within the loading space. In this case, the second cover part can be pivoted from the front to the rear through 180° between two horizontal positions.

Claims (22)

1 - 11 . (canceled)

12 . A loading space system for motor vehicles, comprising:

a cover element arranged to be located in a vehicle parallel to a vehicle longitudinal axis, the cover element having two longitudinal sides and two transverse sides and including a first cover part and a second cover part, the first cover part being in front with respect to the vehicle longitudinal axis of the second cover part;

a first pivot hinge connecting the first cover part and the second cover part, the first pivot hinge arranged parallel to the transverse sides and connectable to a first bearing which runs approximately parallel to a motor vehicle floor in the region of a motor vehicle side wall,

wherein at least the second cover part is connectable to at least one of a second bearing at the vehicle side wall at approximately right angles to the motor vehicle floor and a third bearing at the motor vehicle floor.

13 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the first cover part is pivotable relative to the second cover part through at least 180° between a first position and a second position, without regard to the position of the second cover part.

14 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein at least one cover part has at least one second pivot hinge arranged parallel to the first pivot hinge, the second pivot hinge dividing its cover part into at least a first cover piece and a second cover piece.

15 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 13 , wherein at least one cover part has at least one second pivot hinge arranged parallel to the first pivot hinge, the second pivot hinge dividing its cover part into at least a first cover piece and a second cover piece.

16 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the cover pieces can be pivoted relative to each other through at least 180°.

17 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the cover pieces can be pivoted relative to each other through at least 180°.

18 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein at least one of the first cover part and the second cover part is arranged to be releasably connected to a fourth bearing in the region of a vehicle seat wall.

19 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein at least one of the first cover part and the second cover part is arranged to be connected to a fifth bearing in a region of a vehicle tailgate.

20 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 18 , wherein at least one of the first cover part and the second cover part is arranged to be connected to a fifth bearing in a region of a vehicle tailgate.

21 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the bearings are at least one of supporting bearings, sliding-fit bearings and clamping-fit bearings.

22 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the second bearing is arranged approximately centrally between a vehicle seat wall and a vehicle tailgate in the direction of the vehicle longitudinal axis

23 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 22 , wherein the second bearing is arranged to be offset in the longitudinal direction.

24 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the cover element in the region of at least one of the motor vehicle floor and a vehicle seat wall is locatable such that the cover element is approximately parallel to, and at least partially rests on, at least one of the vehicle floor and the vehicle seat wall.

25 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the cover element is connectable to at least one of the bearings in at least one region of the longitudinal sides and the transverse sides.

26 . The loading space system as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the second cover part

is connected pivotably to the first cover part,

is pivotable into a vertical position with respect to the motor vehicle floor, and

is fixable in at least one of a region of the motor vehicle floor and a region of the motor vehicle side wall.
