Child restraint with cupholder
A child restraint includes a juvenile seat having a seat bottom and a seat back extending upwardly from the seat bottom. The juvenile seat further includes a cupholder coupled to the seat bottom.
CUP HOLDER TABLE
A tray and tray platform insert for mounting in a vehicle cup holder, in which said tray includes a platform with a downwardly projecting platform opening eccentrically located in said tray platform for fitting into a vehicle cup holder. The platform insert has an eccentrically located opening and is configured to be repositionable on the tray platform such that either: (1) the platform insert opening is positioned in alignment with said tray platform opening, allowing a cup to be supported through said aligned openings, or (2) said platform insert opening is not aligned with said tray platform opening, such that the tray and insert present a continuous supporting surface for placing items in the tray.
Alternatively, the platform insert is configured to have a solid surface with no openings, and with a cup holder projecting upwardly from one surface for holding a cup. The cup holder is configured such that when the platform insert is inverted, the cup holder projects downwardly through said eccentrically located opening in said tray platform.
Seat Engageable Transport Container Assembly
A seat engageable transport container assembly for transporting food in a vehicle includes a box, which in turn comprises a bottom panel and a set of four perimeter panels. The bottom panel is rectangular. Each perimeter panel is hingedly engaged to a respective edge of the bottom panel and is selectively fixedly positionable perpendicularly to the bottom panel. The box is selectively positionable in a deployed configuration and a collapsed configuration. In the deployed configuration, a top of the box is open for insertion of an article into the box. In the collapsed configuration, the perimeter panels are positioned proximate to and substantially parallel to the bottom panel. A respective perimeter panel has a pair of apertures positioned therein for insertion of a safety belt of a vehicle to secure the box to a seat. A leveler is engaged to the bottom panel and is used to level the box.
CUPHOLDER ASSEMBLY AND TABLE INCLUDING THE SAME
A cupholder assembly adapted to be mounted to a support structure and a table including a cupholder assembly are provided. In one example, the cupholder assembly includes a housing that extends in a distal direction from a proximal housing portion to a distal housing portion. The housing is configured to pivotally couple to the support structure to move between a mounted position and a rotated position that is rotated relative to the mounted position. A cupholder subassembly is slidingly coupled to the housing to move between a stowed position substantially within the housing and a deployed position extending from the housing in the distal direction.
Supplemental Vehicle Utility Console
A supplemental vehicle utility console for any vehicle having an integral vehicle console with an inset storage pocket is provided having a main storage compartment with an upper section, a lower section, and first and second sidewalls. The upper section is pivotably connected to a cantilevered shelf member having a flat top surface and a bottom surface with at least one integral console insert member having an open pocket. One or more of the console insert members extend down from the bottom surface of the shelf member and are configured to conform to the shape of the existing vehicle console storage pockets, so as to fit snugly within the storage pockets in the vehicle console. The utility console also has a variety of storage compartments attached to the main storage compartment for the placement of various items which are thereby easily accessible to the vehicle driver.
Cup holder assembly for small aircraft
A cooled cup holder provides for a cooled beverage container that is connectable to a vehicle's air conditioning system to maintain a drink cold. The assembly can additionally be provided with a second compartment which can keep a snack or sandwich cool. The cup holder assembly can be adapted to be suspended from the map pocket panel, or can be provided with its own map pocket, in which case, the assembly will replace the airplane's map pocket.
VEHICLE CUPHOLDER ADAPTER FOR OVERSIZED BEVERAGE CONTAINER
A cupholder adapter for a large beverage container has a base, a container holder that upwardly extends from the base, and a shell insert that extends downwardly from the base. The shell insert snaps into a first shell, which may be press-fit into OEM vehicle cupholders of a relatively small size. Further shells may be sequentially and releasably attached over the first shell to fit the assembly to OEM vehicle cupholders of larger sizes. An axis of the container holder may be offset from the axis of the shell insert, so as to permit two such cupholder adapters to be installed in two cupholders closely spaced from each other in a vehicle center console.
Reconfigurable system for adjustable support structure anchored to cup holder onboard vehicle
A reconfigurable system provides for adjustable support of a personal article of a user in a manner releasably anchored to a built in cup holder receptacle onboard a vehicle. A base portion fits within and substantially fills the cup holder receptacle. The base portion defines an internal bore formed to extending axially therein. A frame portion engages the internal bore of the base portion to extend longitudinally upward therefrom. The frame portion includes at least first and second sections telescopically coupled to one another for axial relative displacement in releasably locked manner. The first and second sections are mutually locked against angular displacement relative to one another during use, with one of the first and second sections defining an attachment end. One of a plurality of modular holder portions is coupled to the attachment end of the frame portion to define a support surface for the personal article.
System for holding devices
A system for securing a user device to a body includes a magnet and an attraction plate. One of the magnet or the attraction plate is mechanically coupled to the body, and the other of the magnet or the attraction plate is mechanically coupled to the user device. The magnet is selectively activated to hold the attraction plate and, thereby, secure the user device to the body.
Trunk cooler
A trunk cooler removably connected under a seat of a vehicle, the trunk cooler including a base cooler receptacle to store at least one item therein, a plurality of retractable legs disposed on a bottom surface of the base cooler receptacle to support the base cooler receptacle in response to moving the plurality of retractable legs from being retracted in a first vertical position to at least partially extended in a second vertical position, and a cooling system to inject cold air into an interior portion of the base cooler.
