Abstract

See full text

A rigid bedcover and suspension/access system that provides substantially uniform and stable suspension throughout the angle of travel of the bedcover from the fully closed position to the fully open position. An offset hinge pivotally supports the bedcover and a counterbalanced suspension system suspends the pivoting bedcover with a substantially constant force throughout its path of travel from a fully closed position at 0 degrees to a fully open position at approximately 90 degrees. The counterbalanced suspension system of this invention does not require the hydraulic piston required by the prior art and provides a counterbalancing force and stable opening at every angle.
