Tri-fold tonneau cover

A tonneau cover, comprising:

• a tri-panel cover arrangement comprising a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel, wherein the first panel is hingedly coupled to the second panel via a first hinge, and the second panel is hingedly coupled to the third panel via a second hinge, and wherein the second panel defines at least one water collection channel including a hinge edge extending substantially orthogonal to a top surface of the second panel, a channel bottom extending outwardly from the hinge edge, and a side wall extending upwardly from the channel bottom to collectively form three sides of the water collection channel positionable beneath at least one of the first hinge or the second hinge and extending over a rail assembly to providing a path for removal of moisture introduced between the first, the second panel, and the third panel.

A tonneau cover, comprising:

• a tri-panel cover arrangement comprising a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel, wherein the first panel is hingedly coupled to the second panel via a first hinge, and the second panel is hingedly coupled to the third panel via a second hinge;
• and
• a rail assembly slidably coupling at least the second panel to a truck bed to enable at least the second panel to selectively slide at least one of forward or aft relative to the truck bed.

A tonneau cover, comprising:

• a tri-panel cover arrangement including at least a first panel and a second panel, wherein, the first panel is hingedly coupled to the second panel with one or more first hinges to enable the first panel to transition from a first configuration, in which the first panel and the second panel are substantially coplanar, to a second configuration, in which the first panel is stacked on top of the second panel in an inverted configuration;
• and
• a rail assembly slidably coupling at least the second panel to a truck bed to enable at least the second panel to selectively slide relative to the truck bed, wherein the first panel includes one or more hooks configured to pivot into engaging contact with the rail assembly when the first panel is transitioned to the first configuration to restrict vertical movement of the tri-panel cover arrangement relative to the rail assembly.
