Each flexible clamping belt (4B) has a number of projections (411) which are spaced from each other in a longitudinal direction (M) of the belt body (401) and configured to act as spacers when the flexible clamping belt (4B) is clamped around a bicycle tube (T), so as to define gaps (412) through which any bicycle wire (W) extending adjacent to, and along, the bicycle tube (T) can be arranged.

Rattling of a vehicle-mounted equipment supported by a bracket is restricted. The attaching structure 1 for vehicle-mounted equipment has a housing 20 of vehicle-mounted equipment; an engagement arm 40 provided in the housing 20; a bracket 10 fixed to a vehicle body; and an engagement hole 13 formed in the bracket 10 to be engaged with the engagement arm 40, the engagement arm 40 is formed with a predetermined width along with one side edge 131 of the engagement hole 13 and is capable of being displaced in an engagement direction (the longitudinal direction of the center line Lm) to the engaged portion 135 formed on one side edge 131 of the engagement hole 131, the engagement arm 40 inserted into the engagement hole 13 being elastically engaged with the engaged portion 135 of the engagement hole 13 to attach the housing 20 of vehicle-mounted equipment to the bracket 10, wherein engagement members 50 and 50 are provided independently of the engagement arm 40 on both sides of the engagement arm 40 in the width direction thereof to be capable of being displaced in the width direction (the radial direction of the center line Lm), elastically engaging the engagement members 50 and 50 with the other side edges 133 and 134 of the engagement hole 13.

A storage bag for use with a tonneau cover is provided. The storage bag has a main body having at least one pocket, and at least one first fastener secured to the main body for releaseably fastening the main body to a bottom surface of a tonneau cover.

A grab bar mount is provided. The grab bar mount includes an upper member having a first channeled recess and a lower member having a second channeled recess. The first channeled recess has a size and shape corresponding to a size and shape of an upper portion of a grab bar post of an off road vehicle. The second channeled recess has a size and shape corresponding to a size and shape of a lower portion of the grab bar post of the off road vehicle. The upper member and the lower member are releasably coupled together around the grab bar post with the grab bar post extending through the first and second channeled recesses. The grab bar mount geometry of the channeled recesses operate to engage the outer surfaces of the grab bar post and inhibits movement of the grab bar mount with respect to the grab bar post.

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.

An adjustable removable device caddy is disclosed for securing devices including, but not limited to a smartphone or other phone, a tablet, an e-reader, a power bank, a speaker, a multimedia player, a two-way radio, a flashlight or other light, a television or other display, a GPS, a laser range finder, a beverage, or other device. One embodiment of the invention utilizes a combination of one or more seat, wing, and face plate, to create an adjustable cavity that can accommodate a number of devices with varying width and thickness. The adjustable removable device caddy can be mounted to various mounting surfaces including, but not limited to a golf cart, automobile, all-terrain vehicle, maintenance vehicle, boat, pushcart, bicycle, motorcycle, scooter, tent, canopy, flat surface, and the like.

In one series of embodiments, a carrier system includes a rack mountable on a vehicle to transport material. The rack includes a frame having one or more suction cups attached to the rear side of the frame, e.g., for attachment to a surface such as the side of the vehicle. A support bar mates with the frame. The support bar and the frame may include attachment configurations which mate with one another to selectively and securely attach the bar to the front side of the frame with the bar extending in a direction away from the one or more cups. With the rack comprising a plurality of suction cups, the frame may be configured as a plate or may comprise a series of arms or connected braces which extend away from a center position to the suction cups.

A mount for a mobile device on an internal display screen of an automobile. A housing defines a volume and has a device side attachment surface and a back surface. The housing also has an attachment extension to couple to the internal display such that the device side attachment surface has a permanently fixed orientation relative to the attachment extension. The housing contains a wireless charger and a first arrangement of magnetic material. The magnetic material exposes a pattern of magnetic fields at the device side attachment surface. The attachment extension has a display screen coupling surface with an arcuate contour that substantially mates with a contour of the internal display screen.

Identification and guidance systems configured to facilitate vehicle management in logistics yards or the like are described. The systems can include an identification and guidance (I/G) unit attached to each transport vehicle within the logistics yard. The I/G unit transmits information (e.g., location and guidance information) over a wireless network to a remote controller. The remote controller can transmit relevant information received from the I/G unit to a portable communications device associated with the transport vehicle to which the I/G unit is mounted. For example, the portable communications device may be located in a tractor being used to maneuver the transport vehicle about the logistics yard so that the driver can use the information displayed on the portable communications device to assist with maneuvering the transport vehicle. Related methods are also described.
