Net assembly for a vehicle
A net assembly for a vehicle, comprising an assembly of rod elements, each of which has a guide channel; a plurality of joint elements, each of which has at least one connection opening, wherein the rod elements are connected together via the joint elements; and at least one tensioning element which extends through the guide channels of at least some of the rod elements and the connection openings of at least some of the joint elements and can be tensioned in order to clamp the rod elements relative to the joint elements. In this manner, a net assembly is provided which can be used in a variable manner, the shape of which can be adapted in a flexible manner, and which can thus be used to withstand forces.
Trim element comprising a retractable storage volume
A trim element having a body and a covering element extending over part of the body. The covering element includes at least two substantially rigid panels connected to one another by a flexible branch forming a bending line of the panels relative to one another and fastened to the body by a fastening edge forming a hinge between the panels and the body, the covering element being deformable around the bending line. The covering element hinges between a retracted position, in which the panels of the covering element are pressed against the body, and a deployed position, in which the panels are moved away from the body, the covering element defining a storage volume with the body in the deployed position.
COUPLING SYSTEM
A clip assembly is provided for a storage system, and includes a receiver clip and a floor clip. The receiver clip includes a base section and a support section, the support section having a main surface and a pair of arm extensions extending from opposing edges of the main surface to define a receiving region. The arm extensions each define a guiding ramp and a securing cavity. The floor clip includes a lower section and an upper section, the lower section comprising nobs extending from sidewalls thereof. The securing cavities of the receiver clip are configured to receive and retain at least a portion of the nobs of the floor clip so that the floor clip is hingedly connected to the receiver clip by the nobs, and the floor clip may pivot relative to the receiver clip between an open position and a closed position.
ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR SECURING A LOAD IN A VEHICLE
A vehicle load-securing arrangement includes a first load-securing device arranged to be attachable to a load-securing member and a first tensioning device arranged to be attached to the first load-securing device by a first tensioning member. The first load-securing device is arranged to be connected to a vehicle body part or a vehicle chassis part. The first load-securing device is arranged to be movable in an axial direction of the first load-securing device in a first opening in a loading surface of a vehicle by operating the first tensioning device.
Accessible rear seat latch release
A rear seat latch release device is easily installed to a portion of a rear seat holding mechanism so the rear seat can be released and more effectively folded down. The rear seat latch release device is specifically designed to surround the factory latch, and allow a pull strap to be added, which can more easily and effectively operate the rear seat latch. Components of the rear seat latch release device are designed to easily cooperate with several variations in the factory latch, thereby allowing installation in many different situations.

CARGO HOLD SYSTEM FOR MOTOR VEHICLES
A retention member, cargo hold system, and method for securing articles while being transported in a vehicle. The cargo hold system comprises a retention member and a floor mat. The retention member comprises at least a first and second leg, pin, and spring. Each of the first and second legs include at least one knuckle aligned coaxially with a rotational axis of the retention member. The pin is linearly translatable along the rotational axis. The spring biases the pin in a first direction and upon biasing the pin in a second direction, the at least two legs are enabled to rotate relative to each other.
Vehicle interior component
A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base comprising an outer surface and a support comprising an outer surface and configured to move between a raised position and a lowered position. The component may comprise a light source to provide a lighted border around the support and/or illuminate walls of the cavity. The outer surface of the support and the outer surface of the base may comprise a substantially continuous surface when the support is in the raised position. The support may descend into the base to provide a cavity. The support may rotate and translate as it descends. The support may comprise a switch to send a signal to move the support. The component may comprise a pump and a valve. The component may comprise at least one of a console, floor console, tunnel console, armrest, instrument panel, door or door panel.
Vehicle interior component
A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base structure comprising a functional region configured to present a first form and a second form comprising a receptacle. The base structure may comprise an illuminated section at the functional region. The functional region may comprise a movable illuminated platform. The platform may move between an elevated state for a default form and a lowered state for the second form. The platform may be configured to be presented at a first or generally horizontal orientation and a second or generally tilted orientation. The illuminated section may comprise a perimeter of the functional region. The component may comprise an actuator configured to operate a mechanism for the functional region. The functional region may comprise wireless charging capability. The component may comprise at least one of a console; floor console; tunnel console; armrest; instrument panel; door; door panel.
SEATBACK POCKET
In the present disclosure, a seatback pocket is introduced, which includes a backboard combined with a rear side of a seatback and including a hinge shaft provided at a lower end in left and right width directions; a pocket member having a hinge part formed at a lower end and combined with the hinge shaft through a hinge structure to be rotated based on the hinge shaft to provide a pocket space in a region facing the backboard; and an elastic member connected between both ends of the pocket member and the backboard in a shape blocking sides of the pocket space, and configured to provide an elastic restoring force with respect to a rotation direction of the pocket member.
