A closing aid for a luggage compartment flap is described, which closing aid comprises an actuating element, a movement element and a connecting element. The actuating element is integrated in a locking mechanism of the luggage compartment flap. The connecting element connects the actuating element to the movement element and transmits a movement of the actuating element to the movement element such that the luggage compartment flap fastened to the movement element is moved at least part of the way from an open position to a closed position. A luggage compartment and a vehicle having a closing aid of this type are also described.

A movement device for a luggage compartment flap having a mounting arm for the mounting of a luggage compartment flap. The movement device furthermore includes an actuator which is coupled to the second section the mounting arm and which is configured to, when activated, move the mounting arm such that the luggage compartment flap is moved at least part of the way from an open position to a closed position. As a result of this movement of the luggage compartment flap, the latter can be more easily reached and, for example, moved manually into its closed position. Also provided are a luggage compartment having a movement device, a vehicle region having a multiplicity of luggage compartments, and a vehicle having at least one movement device.

A system and method for vehicle compartment item presence indication senses an item within a vehicle compartment and notifies a user if the item is expected or unexpected within the compartment based on a vehicle state. Should the item be expected in a compartment during a phase of flight where the compartment is expected to contain items, there is no abnormal indication. However, if a compartment is expected to be empty during a specific phase of flight and the sensors indicate an item is present, the system will alert the user to the unexpected item.

A vehicle rail system has a frame mountable to a vehicle, the frame having a plurality of support legs, the support legs interconnected via support beams. One or more fixed rails are mountable to the support frame, each fixed rail comprising a plurality of bearings thereon and configured to receive a sliding rail, the sliding rail having a plurality of grooves for receiving the bearings of the fixed rail so as to be slidable thereon. The bearings are located along regular intervals of the fixed rails on each non-mounted side. The sliding rail is then able to slide along the bearings of the fixed rail, extending to the exterior of the frame mounted in the vehicle.

A storage assembly includes an attachment system for securing an item to a surface. The attachment system includes a first mounting component fixed to the surface and a second mounting component fixed to the item and cooperating with the first component to detachably secure the item to the surface. A retention assembly associated with the first and second mounting components prevents accidental separation of the two components. The attachment system may also include a manipulation element coupled to one of the first and second retention elements and configured to facilitate intentional separation of the two mounting elements.

A tour bus includes a vehicle body, a front door, a rear door, a plurality of wheels, a luggage compartment door and a movable placing portion. The front door, the rear door and the luggage compartment door are all disposed at one lateral side of the vehicle body, with the luggage compartment door between the front door and the rear door. The wheels connected individually to a bottom of the vehicle body are used for displacing the vehicle body. The movable placing portion is foldably disposed in a storage area of the vehicle body. The movable placing portion includes a placing platform and a supportive structure. The placing platform can protrude out of the storage area of the vehicle body. The supportive structure is pivotally connected with the placing platform, and the supportive structure supports the placing platform while the placing platform is moved out of the vehicle body.

A storage assembly includes a gear bag having a rigid mounting plate secured to its bottom wall, and a pair mounting rails for receiving the edges of the mounting plate. The mounting rails are designed to be mounted in spaced-apart relationship on a ceiling, wall, or floor of an emergency vehicle, and to receive the edges of the mounting plate. The gear bag defines at least one compartment sized and shaped to contain a personal safety item such as a helmet.
