ABSTRACT:
A curtain-sided vehicle in which there is a multiple panel curtain suspended from rollers engaging a rail along the roof of the curtain-sided vehicle. On each end of the curtain is attached a sliding door structure which also has rollers engaging the rail running along the roof. Hooks on the bottom of the sliding doors and the curtain slidably engage the platform of the vehicle. The curtain is pleated when one of the doors is slid open to gain access to the cargo area of the vehicle. To aid in pleating the curtain, biased hinge devices, located in each panel, bias the curtain away from the cargo area and facilitate accurate and compact pleating of the curtain.
