The present invention provides a mobile mounting system for releasably supporting an elongated vessel on a vehicle support member, the mobile mounting system comprising a handgrip extending from a curved end to an angled end, a mount in receipt of the handgrip and a hinge operably extending between the handgrip and the mount, the hinge configured for pivotal operation of the handgrip about a pivot axis extending through the curved end and a release mechanism operably connect to the angled end.

An optical module for a vehicle includes an imager configured to collect image data from at least one of inside and outside the vehicle. A cover is disposed proximate a lens of the imager. The cover includes an electro-optic cell aligned with the lens and configured to allow the imager to capture the image data through the cover. The cover is colored to match one of an interior and exterior body panel of the vehicle. The electro-optic cell is operable between a first condition wherein the electro-optic cell has a visible light transmission of greater than 50% and a second condition wherein the visible light transmission of the electro-optic cell is less than 15%.

An apparatus for adjusting a screen arrangement for a vehicle roof may have a main slider and an adjusting slider which can each be coupled to the screen arrangement and are configured for pivoting the screen arrangement out and in and for adjusting a prescribed alignment angle (A) of the screen arrangement. The apparatus may also have a drive coupling element which couples a drive cable of the main slider and a drive cable of the adjusting slider to one another, such that the main slider and the adjusting slider can be displaced, with respect to a common reference point, at least in certain portions, at different movement speeds, and such that with respect to a longitudinal axis (L) of the apparatus a spacing between the main slider and the adjusting slider and therefore an alignment angle (A) of the screen arrangement can be adjusted in a prescribed manner.

A transportation vehicle trim with display functionality having a light shade unit with at least one window section which is transparent at least area by area in the visible wavelength area for a transillumination, and a functional unit having at least one illuminant or at least one illuminant and one input unit, wherein the functional unit is formed as a basic module having a self-contained, water-tight housing, in the interior of which the at least one illuminant and the input unit are arranged, wherein the basic module is mechanically connected to the light shade unit. A front side of the housing of the basic module facing a viewing side of the light shade unit may be smaller than an area across which backlit information areas of the transportation vehicle trim extend. Individual light exit areas of the basic module are coupled via light guiding elements to the backlit information areas.

A vehicle instrument panel assembly includes a display screen positioned within a housing, wherein the housing includes first and second protrusions. The vehicle instrument panel assembly includes a cross-car beam and a first bracket coupled to the cross-car beam. A second bracket is coupled to the first bracket and the first and second protrusions.

A display assembly includes a first rigid layer, a first adhesive layer disposed adjacent to the first rigid layer, a second rigid layer, a second adhesive layer disposed adjacent to the second rigid layer, a display screen disposed between the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer, the display screen having a first side facing an exterior of the display assembly and a second side facing an interior of the display assembly, and a controller that is in communication with the display screen to generate a pattern on the display screen visible from the exterior of the display assembly.

Display systems for a vehicle are contemplated that comprise a seat display unit coupled with a display screen, where the display screen is affixed to a seat back and the seat display unit is disposed within the seat back. The display screen is fixed to the seat back such that its relative position with the seat back remains constant when the seat back is reclined. The seat display unit is coupled to the seat back, such that the seat display unit automatically tilts or pivots when the seat back is reclined, and while the display screen does not move relative to the seat back.

A vehicle display device includes a display and a moving device. The display is formed in an elongate shape. The moving device moves the display between a lower position at a vehicle width direction central portion of an instrument panel of a vehicle, and an upper position at a vehicle upper side of the lower position. In the lower position the moving device orients the longitudinal direction of the display along a vehicle vertical direction. In the upper position the moving device orients the longitudinal direction of the display along a vehicle width direction.

A dynamically deployable side-view camera mount includes a support body that is movable between a deployed position and a retracted position. The support body in the retracted position allows the camera to at least partially include the angular range captured when the support body is in the deployed position.

An apparatus for a vehicle having a carriage and a rotatable insert configured to be moved between a stowed position and an open position in the carriage. The carriage is configured to be mounted within a side-ledge and includes a first carriage panel having a first slot and a second slot. The first slot has an arcuate curve thereto and the second slot is linear. The rotatable insert includes a first insert panel and a compartment. The first insert panel includes first and second protrusions extending therefrom that are configured to respectively engage the first and second slots such that, as the rotatable insert is moved to the open position, the first and second protrusions travel respectively up the first and second slots. The compartment that is hidden when in the stowed position and can carry at least one item when in the open position.
