A bi-fold hinge assembly for facilitating the more compact placement of a tonneau cover in a stowed position. The bi-fold hinge includes a first arcuate bracket and a second arcuate bracket, which are pivotable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The bi-fold hinge also includes a front base plate, where the second arcuate bracket is pivotally connected to the front base plate, and a rear base plate, where the first arcuate bracket pivotally connected to the rear base plate. The front base plate is connected to a front side rail, and the rear base plate is pivotally connected to a rear side rail. The front side rail and the rear side rail are part of a frame assembly used for supporting and controlling the movement of the tonneau cover as the tonneau cover is moved between the deployed position and the stowed position. |
