A vehicle glasses receptacle arrangement which provides an advanced approach for storage of polarized glasses. Conventional cars have a problem that the glasses are damaged because they are stored together with other things in the dashboard box or console box. The present invention solves this by providing simple configuration of two parts which can be attached to glasses and vehicle's air vent and both parts are either magnetic or metallic in nature.

A component for a vehicle interior is disclosed. The component may comprise a housing comprising a tab and a cover coupled to the housing for movement between a closed position and an open position. The tab may exert a force against the cover when closed. The tab may be integrally formed with the housing. The tab may comprise a first portion coupled to the housing and a second portion comprising an arcuate protrusion to exert the force against the cover. The component may comprise a latch to secure the cover to the housing when closed. The tab may prevent latch disengagement. The tab may comprise a leaf spring. The component may comprise a biasing member coupled to the housing to exert a force against the cover through the tab when the cover is closed. The component may comprise a storage assembly, a sunglass bin or a console.

A component for a vehicle interior is disclosed. The component may comprise a bin coupled to a base and a seat comprising a tab to retain a shaft in an aperture for rotation of the bin. The tab may contact the shaft along a plane adjacent to the shaft. The tab may retain/apply a force to the shaft at a tangent of the shaft. The tab may contact a protrusion in response to engagement of the shaft and tab. The tab may comprise a set of opposing sides; one side may contact the shaft; the other side may contact the protrusion. The tab may extend from the base in an extended direction; the tab may contact the shaft along a plane aligned with the extended direction; the tab may apply force to the shaft transverse to the extended direction. The tab may rotate when engaged with the shaft.

A storage assembly comprises a first portion including a shaft and a second portion including a shaft hole. The first portion is rotatably connected to the second portion via the shaft received in the shaft hole and moveable from the first rest position to the second rest position through an intermediate position. The shaft of the first portion has a stop portion protruded radially and the shaft hole is configured to contact the stop portion in the first rest position and the second rest position and to space apart radially from the stop portion in the intermediate position.

An eyeglass holder device for holding multiple eyeglasses of a variety of kinds, reading glasses, sunglasses, or protective eyewear type glasses used in a workshop, machine shop, laboratory, or other such work spaces. The eyeglass holder of the invention has a substantially crescent shaped front body portion having a plurality of flexible and thin substantially concave shaped rib structures attached to the inside surface of the front body structure creating the necessary voids to facilitate hanging the eyeglasses on the holder. An important function of the flexible rib structures is to deflect and exert tension on the eyeglasses and hold them stable within the voids to prevent them from moving around and getting damaged. The rectangular shaped back of the eyeglass holder has a recessed back side that accommodates a double sided adhesive tape to mount the holder on to a suitable surface.

The present invention provides a case seat assembly that is removably attached to a small case containing small items such as eyeglass case, cellphone case, or another small case. The assembly further comprises a base, clamp, and a kickstand. The base is coupled to the outer surface of the small case. Mounted to one side of the clamp is an attaching element that is configured to be rotatably and removably coupled to the base. While in use the clamp is detached from the small case and configured to attach a sun visor, belt, bag, purse or other suitable item. The clamp further comprises a hingedly connected kickstand that allows the case to be suspended in an upright position and the clamp can be detached from the base.

An article retainer assembly is provided. That article retainer assembly includes a housing. First and second retainers are carried on the housing. The first retainer includes a first set of opposed, flexible retaining flaps defining a first slit therebetween. The second retainer includes a second set of opposed, flexible retaining flaps defining a second slit therebetween.

A system for using an electrostatic force to cause an object to adhere to a surface of a vehicle can include an electrode and a device. The electrode can be configured to be disposed within a structure of the vehicle. The structure can define the surface. A shape of the electrode can define a shape of a region of the surface. The device can be configured to connect the electrode to a voltage source so that, at a time at which the electrode is connected to the voltage source, an electric charge is produced on the electrode to produce the electrostatic force capable of causing the object to adhere to the surface. For example, the surface can include a dashboard, a dashboard vent frame, a sunglasses holder cover, or the like. For example, the object can include a mobile device, a cup, a pair of sunglasses, or the like.

The tab may rotate when engaged with the shaft.

An eyewear storage device may include a receptacle which may be coupled to a receiver. The receptacle may comprise a cavity for receiving portions of an article of eyewear. The receiver may comprise a first arm which may be movably coupled to a second arm. The first arm may have a first finger, and the first finger may have a first finger gripping surface. The second arm may have a base, and the base may have a base gripping surface. The first finger gripping surface and the base gripping surface may be movable towards and away from each other. Preferably, the first finger gripping surface and the base gripping surface may be positioned on opposing sides or surfaces of an object, such as a cell phone, and the first arm and the second arm may contact and tension against opposing sides of the object to grip the object.
