Sport utility vehicle storage system
A vehicle storage system may include a deck configured to span substantially a total width of a vehicle bed, and a drawer assembly including a supporting frame and a tub, the drawer assembly configured to extend, via a guide channel assembly, in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle bed past the deck, and configured to retract, via the guide channel assembly, under the deck, the drawer assembly configured to detach from the guide channel assembly and be removed from the vehicle bed, the deck configured to rotate between a closed position and an open position relative to the drawer assembly. The vehicle storage system may further include a cart affixed to a bottom portion of the drawer assembly.
Truck bed system
The present invention provides an easy and quick assembled and removable rack system which can have the length and width of the system adjusted. The rack system can be assembled in numerous configurations to carry various load sizes and objects. The inventive rack system includes an expandable front brace, an expandable left and right-side frame, an expandable rear brace, expandable left and right support rails, where the expandable support rails have an inner opening for receiving an inner support rail for added support when the left and right support rails are extended. The inner support rails also have an inner opening for receiving a left and right extension arm which fits inside the inner rail opening and the extension arms can be extended from the rear of the frame for added length and support when carrying longer items of for pulling out a portion of the deck panels to create a work surface area off the back of the truck or rack system. The support rails are configured to support removeable panels for providing a deck. The deck is formed from a plurality of expandable deck panels which can have the widths or length adjusted to accommodate the vehicle size. The deck panels are received by the top edge on the left and right support rails.
Truck bed accessory mounting panels
An accessory mounting system is easily coupled to an inner portion of a pick-up bed, thus allowing a user to easily mount and hold equipment. The mounting system includes a number of panels which can be mounted to existing structures within the pick-up box, and which have a pattern of openings to accommodate straps, brackets, tie-downs, and other holding mechanisms.
MODULAR MOUNTING SYSTEM WITH REMOVABLE CROSS-BARS AND SIDE PANELS FOR TRUCK BEDS AND THE LIKE
According to some illustrative embodiments, a modular mounting system for mounting accessories on vehicles includes: a) a plurality of support members, each of said plurality of support members having i) a lower upright planar member configured to extend downward along a peripheral wall around a vehicle bed, ii) a cross planar member extending laterally from the lower upright planar member and configured to extend across the peripheral wall around the vehicle bed, and iii) an upper upright planar member extending upwardly from the cross planar member and configured to extend upwardly above a height of the peripheral wall around the vehicle bed; and b) at least one of: i) a removable cross-bar removably supported by a plurality of said upper upright planar members; and ii) a removable side panel removably supported by a plurality of said upright planar members.
COLLAPSIBLE FOLDING TRUCK TRUNK
A collapsible trunk for use with a vehicle having a wheel well. The trunk comprises a base wall and a side wall pivotally connected thereto. The side wall extends from the base wall and terminates at an upper edge. The side wall and base wall collectively define a storage cavity. The base wall and the side wall each have an expandable portion conformable to the wheel well in response to placement of the base wall and the side wall over the wheel well. The trunk is selectively transitional between a collapsed configuration and a deployed configuration. In the collapsed configuration, the base panels overlap each other, and in the deployed configuration, the plurality of base panels are co-planar to each other. The upper edge of the side wall moves away from the base wall as the trunk transitions from the collapsed configuration toward the deployed configuration.
MODULAR PORTABLE STORAGE CONTAINER SYSTEM
A modular portable storage container system includes a storage container having first and second sections. The first section defines a first partial volume of storage space and the second section defines a second partial volume of storage space. The system further includes a lock mechanism with a lock arm, lock handle, and pivot shaft defining an axis of rotation. The lock arm and handle are fixed for common rotation with the pivot shaft. The arm extends radially outward from the pivot shaft to a roller assembly. A lock track is disposed within the second section and extends from a fluted open portion to a closed end, with a continuous track portion disposed therebetween. The first and second sections are movable between at least closed and open positions. In the closed position, the roller assembly engages with the lock track and retains the first section in contact with the second portion.
FLATBED VEHICLE ACCESSORY ASSEMBLY AND FLATBED VEHICLE CARGO MANAGEMENT METHOD
A modular cargo management system for a flatbed vehicle includes a flatbed of a vehicle, at least one accessory assembly, and an attachment system that secures the at least one accessory assembly to the flatbed. The attachment system has feet that are each received within an aperture when the accessory assembly is secured to the flatbed.
POWERED VEHICLE ACCESSORY AND ACCESSORY POWERING METHOD
A vehicle accessory assembly includes an accessory configured to engage a baseplate to secure the accessory to a vehicle. The accessory and the baseplate are configured to engage each other through an attachment system having feet that are each received within an aperture when engaged. The accessory is configured to provide electrical power to at least one device that is electrically coupled to the accessory.
Side pack with channels
Disclosed is a side pack that may be on a utility vehicle. In example embodiments, a top panel of the side pack includes channels that are used to connect an option, for example, mechanical equipment, to the side pack. Disclosed also is a method of moving the side pack.
STORAGE CONTAINER SHELF SECURING SYSTEM
A storage container shelf securing system, in one embodiment, may include a base configured to be coupled to a storage container and a shelf between two shelf arms extending upwardly from the base.
