張設されたシート３によって荷物室２のほぼ全体が覆われると共に、車両前方下方に傾斜する前側カバーボード４によって荷物室２の前方が目隠しされ、また、車両後方下方に傾斜する後側カバーボード５によって荷物室２の後方が目隠しされる。したがって、荷物室２の全体がトノカバー装置によって覆われることになる。   Nearly the entire luggage compartment 2 is covered by the stretched seat 3, and the front cover board 4 that is inclined downward in the front of the vehicle covers the front of the luggage compartment 2, and the rear cover board that is inclined downward in the rear of the vehicle. 5 hides behind the luggage compartment 2. Therefore, the entire luggage compartment 2 is covered with the tonneau cover device.

次に、装着されたトノカバー装置を取り外す手順について説明する。トノカバー装置を取り外すには、後側係止溝９から後側係止部材１０を取り外した後、シート３を折り畳み、前側係止溝７から前側係止部材８を取り外す。この手順でトノカバー装置を取り外すことができる。   Next, a procedure for removing the attached tonneau cover device will be described. To remove the tonneau cover device, after removing the rear locking member 10 from the rear locking groove 9, the seat 3 is folded and the front locking member 8 is removed from the front locking groove 7. The tonneau cover device can be removed by this procedure.

そして、取り外したトノカバー装置は、図６に示すようにして折り畳んだ状態で、図２の荷物室２後方のリッド１４上に置く。   The removed tonneau cover device is placed on the lid 14 at the rear of the luggage compartment 2 in FIG. 2 in a folded state as shown in FIG.

「実施の形態の効果」
以上のように構成されたトノカバー装置によれば、シート３の前後に取り付けたカバーボード４、５の自重でシート３を張設させているので、コイルバネの付勢力に抗してシートを引き出す際の負荷が無く、誰にでも簡単にシート３を広げて荷物室２を覆うことができる。 "Effects of the embodiment"
