Patent attributes
There is provided a truck platform construction in which when an external force acts on a platform from the rear side, a width change portion surely absorbs the energy thereof to prevent the deformation of a cab without marring the appearance of a top rail. A side panel erected at both side edges of a platform has an outer panel which constitutes a side external wall of the platform and is formed with an outer bent element at the upper edge thereof and an inner panel which constitutes a side internal wall of the platform. A top rail is formed by fixing the outer bent element onto the inner panel. At the rear part of the top rail, a width change portion in which the width of the top rail changes is formed, and the width of the width change portion increases gradually toward the rear of a truck.
