Description

Center gate device for pickup truck The present invention relates to a center gate device for a pickup truck, and more specifically, to a center gate device for a pickup truck that connects the interior and cargo space of the pickup truck. Unlike regular sedans or SUVs, pickup trucks are equipped with a separate cargo bed, offering excellent loading capacity. They also have superior off-road driving and towing capabilities, making them a popular choice among consumers who frequently transport goods or enjoy camping and leisure activities involving frequent off-road driving. In addition, for the same reason, it is also widely used by workers in the agriculture, livestock, and construction industries. In this way, pickup truck users are making very useful use of the pickup truck's cargo bed by loading and transporting items of various sizes and weights into the cargo bed. However, conventional pickup trucks, such as the vehicle disclosed in Patent Document 1 below, are structured with the interior space and the cargo space completely separated. In other words, there was a problem in that the loading capacity of existing pickup trucks was limited to the said cargo space. For example, it is not easy to load items such as wood or pipes that are longer than the cargo bed. Of course, they can be forced in, but in this case, the rear end of the item protrudes outward from the cargo bed, making it impossible to close the tailgate, which creates a safety issue. Furthermore, conventional pickup trucks required access from the side or rear to retrieve items loaded in the cargo bed. In other words, items stored in the bed could only be accessed and retrieved from the outside of the vehicle, presenting a problem of limited accessibility to the cargo bed. Conventional technology refers to technical information that the inventor possessed for the derivation of the present invention or acquired during the process of deriving the present invention, and it cannot necessarily be considered publicly known technology disclosed to the general public prior to the filing of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a rear perspective view of a pickup truck and is an installation state diagram of a center gate device of a pickup truck according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 is a drawing showing the installation state of the center gate device from the interior side of a pickup truck. Figure 3 is a rear view of the center gate device, excluding the body part from Figure 1. Figure 4 is an open state diagram of the center gate, which is a key component of the present invention. Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating the inner gate in an open state while the center gate is closed. FIG. 6 is a drawing illustrating the state in which the first table is unfolded in the state where the inner gate is open. FIG. 7 is a drawing illustrating the state in which the second table is unfolded while the inner gate is closed. In the present invention, the attached drawings may be illustrated with exaggerated expressions to distinguish it from the prior art, ensure clarity, and facilitate the understanding of the technology. Furthermore, the terms described below are defined considering their functions in the present invention; since these terms may vary depending on the intentions or conventions of the user or operator, their definitions should be based on the technical content throughout this specification. Meanwhile, the embodiments are merely exemplary details of the components presented in the claims of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the rights of the present invention; the scope of rights should be interpreted based on the technical concept throughout the specification of the present invention. Throughout the specification, when a configuration is described as "including" a configuration, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other configurations but may include additional configurations. Furthermore, when it is said that one configuration is "connected," "connected," or "combined" with another configuration, this means that it is not only "directly connected," "directly connected," or "directly combined," but also that there may be cases where it is "connected with another configuration interposed," "connected with another configuration interposed," or "combined with another configuration interposed." On the other hand, when it is said that one configuration is "directly connected," "directly connected," or "directly combined" with another configuration, it should be understood that there is no other configuration in between. In addition, when directional terms such as "front," "back," "up," "down," "left," "right," "first end," "other end," and "both ends" are used, they are used exemplarily in relation to the orientation of the disclosed drawings and should not be interpreted restrictively, and when terms such as "first" and "second" are used, they are terms used to distinguis
