Description
- Light truck models including pick-up trucks are an important part of vehicle sales in most states, and it is evident that many households are using them as their primary vehicles. They have become mainstream at all sporting events, national parks, and job sites all over the world. The availability of extra surface area to use as a table or other support purpose is always desirable in these situations, whether it is used as a work bench to support equipment needed on a job or as a table on which to place food and other refreshments. The rise in popularity of “Tailgate Parties” as well as the desire for off road activities, such as kayaking and canoeing, makes a product such as the simple, convenient, and self-supporting tailgate table/extension, a viable offshoot to enhance the practicality of pickup trucks, sport/utility vehicles, and other vehicles having a tailgate suitable for its attachment. Thus, there presently exists a need for a device that is unobtrusive when stowed, easy to move between its usable and stored positions, as well as practical and efficient when used in both work and recreational applications.
- There have been many approaches by inventors to the design of tailgate improvements and accessories. U.S. Pat. No. 5,649,731 to Tognetti (July, 1997), discloses a device that is usable as a table rather than an extension feature. The Tognetti workbench is on vehicle mounted tracks secured to the floor of the cargo compartment. Its mechanism has two rails extending along the length of the truck bed and a rigid plate member forming a work bench positioned above the first and second rails. There are also a plurality of rollers secured to the rigid plate member whereby the rigid plate member and the attached rollers can be rolled in and out of the cargo compartment.
- Another approach to tailgate adaptation, and which combines the features of a tailgate extension and a work surface, is illustrated in U.S. Pat. No. 6,193,294 to Disner (February 2001). The Disner device mounts on the tailgate of a pickup with a hinging means that is enabled as a work surface only through the engagement of removable legs. This means of attachment also creates a permanent mounting disfigurement to the truck in which it is installed. The device has a central panel and two end panels each having means for attachment on opposed sides of the central panel, which together function to provide enlargement of the cargo area of a truck bed by enclosing the truck's tailgate in the down position. The side panels of the Disner invention can be rotated into a stowed position on top of the central panel.
- Truck bed side walls often include one or more holes, which provide access to enclosed areas within the truck bed side wall, known as stake holes or stake pockets. Such stake holes allow the truck user to attach various items, such as tie-downs, rails, canopies, bed liners, antennas, and flags, to their truck bed side walls.
- A table assembly to be mounted on the rear of a vehicle may include a stake mounting frame member to connect to a stake hole of the vehicle, a horizontal frame extending member to slidably connected to the stake mounting frame member, a leg frame member to pivotably connect to the horizontal frame extending member, a base frame member to connect to the horizontal frame extending member and a table cover member to connect to the base frame member.
- The leg frame member may include a telescoping leg to extend or retract to accommodate uneven terrain, and the base frame member may include a first frame member and a mirrored second frame member.
- The first frame member and the second frame member may include interlocking fingers, and the first frame member and the second frame member may be pivotably connected.
- The first frame member and the second frame member may be connected with a piano hinge.
- The invention may be understood by reference to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which, like reference numerals identify like elements, and in which:
