Disclosed is a portable device holder for vehicle CD-slot mounting, and more particularly to a portable device holder for vehicle CD-slot mounting, in which a facing distance between a movable piece and a stationary piece to be inserted in a CD slot of a vehicle becomes shorter when external forces act thereon, and the facing distance between the movable piece and the stationary piece to be inserted in the CD slot of the vehicle becomes longer when no external forces act thereon, thereby being easily inserted in and mounted to the CD slot of the vehicle and keeping a stable and secured mounting state.

A firefighting or rescue apparatus includes a frame having a cab defining an interior within which a flash memory device is permanently mounted. The flash memory device is isolated so that it is incapable of receiving any onboard operating data pertaining to the operation and status of the firefighting apparatus. Instead, the device primarily stores data regarding a service manual, maintenance manual, electrical diagrams and/or troubleshooting guide related to the firefighting apparatus. The device is able to be selectively coupled to a portable computing device so that a user working on the firefighting apparatus can access the data without risk of loss or misplacement thereof.

A shake prevention structure of a glove box including a housing mounted to an instrument panel and a storage part provided in an inner space of the housing so as to be slidably withdrawn therefrom includes: a shake prevention part mounted to a rear portion of the storage part, and a guide groove allowing an end part of the shake prevention part in a longitudinal direction thereof to be inserted thereto and provided along a longitudinal direction of the housing.

A deployable and expandable storage assembly is provided for a motor vehicle. That storage assembly includes a panel, an expandable linkage assembly and a cover. The cover is carried on the expandable linkage assembly and is displaceable between a stowed position toward the panel and a deployed position projecting from the panel so as to define a storage space and an access opening.

A damper for a storage compartment closure includes a bellows chamber and damper air passage structures each configured to provide an air volume intake during a bellows chamber extension that is less than an air volume expulsion during a bellows chamber compression. One damper air venting structure is a valve having a translatable lid including an aperture defined therethrough. A bellows chamber air pressure differential maintains the translatable lid in a closed configuration during the bellows chamber extension and in an open configuration during the bellows chamber compression. Another damper air venting structure is at least one bellows chamber vent including a cover configured whereby a bellows chamber extension incrementally transitions the cover to a closed configuration.

Apparatus and methods according to various aspects of the present technology may comprise a housing connected to one or more articulating arms. The housing may have a receiving section, such as a holster, for receiving an item for storage. The articulating arms may position the housing in a concealed location and then on command reposition the housing in a more readily accessible location so that the item may be retrieved.
