A B S T R A C T This invention deals with a retractable tonneau top which is suitable for use on the open-bed of a truck, trailer or wagon. This tonneau top comprises a piece of covering material which is carried by a stationary bow structure, a movable bow structure and a plurality of intermediate bow structures which are located between the stationary and movable bow structures. The movable and intermediate bow structures laterally move along a pair of tracks which are attached to the opposing side walls of the open-bed. Movement of the top is controlled by means of a crank. Rotational movement of this crank is simultaneously imparted to a drive chain associated with each track. Each of these drive chains is in turn coupled with the movable bow structure such that the movable bow structure is capable of moving in combination therewith. Movement of the drive chains in one direction causes the tonneau top to move from a retracted position to an extended position while movement of the drive chains in the opposite direction causes the top to move from the extended position to the retracted position.
