A device for a vehicle includes a carrying case having a housing and a casing each of which includes a chamber for receiving objects or the electric facilities. The casing includes one or more fastening bands attached to the upper portion, and / or one or more fastening bands attached to either of the side portions, and / or one or more fastening bands attached to the lower portion, for solidly attaching the carrying case and the electric facility to the headrest of the vehicle, and for prevent the portable electric facilities from moving or vibrating or rocking or swinging relative to the vehicle.

A container for securing objects in a moving vehicle comprises a bottom panel and a sidewall attached to and extending upwardly from the bottom panel to form a box-like structure forming a first container portion. The sidewall may be foldably attached to the bottom panel such that the container may be collapsed down so that it is more compact for easy storage. The sidewall may be comprised of a plurality of walls each attached to the bottom panel or alternatively, the sidewall may be formed by a single, integral structure attached to the bottom panel. The sidewall may be collapsible such that the sidewall may be folded or crumpled down relatively flat over the bottom panel. The container includes an adjustable divider disposed in the container which partitions the interior of the container. A variety of other accessories, such as drink holders, shelves, tables, and pockets may also be disposed in, or on, the container to conveniently hold objects in a moving vehicle.

A vehicle console has multiple storage areas and multiple access points. The vehicle console includes a housing and first through third modules. The housing has first and second sections. The first module is slidingly coupled to the housing and configured to slide over the first section. The second module is slidingly coupled to the housing and the first module and configured to slide over the first and second sections. The third module pivotally coupled to the housing and pivotally moveable between a first position substantially covering the second section and a second position substantially uncovering the second section.

An apparatus and method for holding a portable electronic device, comprising a base formed of thin, flat, rigid, material, and having, in a lower portion a first, substantially unbroken, flat surface, against which the inner lower surface of the device can be mounted; in any upper bifurcated portion a central slot with a relatively wide open upper end and a relatively narrow closed lower end adjoining the lower portion, and on the sides of the slot open upper end a pair of upwardly-extending, laterally-spaced, second and third mounting surfaces, against which spaced-apart inner upper surfaces of the device can be mounted; a first pair of holes formed in the outer ends of the second and third mounting surfaces; a second hole formed in a lower end of the lower portion; a plurality of inwardly-extending notches formed in the outer edge surfaces of the lower and upper portions; a cord having each of two end portions threaded through the first pair of holes; a middle portion formed as a loop and threaded through the second hole; on each end of the cord a resilient wedge; wherein the device, when equipped with a mounting clip or button, is adapted to be detachably secured to the base by being mounted on the closed lower end of the slot, and if not so equipped is adapted to be strapped to the base by use of the cord and by use of the wedge members is adapted to be suspended from a structure formed so as to receive, squeeze, and detachably hold the wedge members and thereby suspend the base.

A reconfigurable vehicle console having a plurality of interchangeable overlapping face plates and a single piece cup holder that is structured for coupling to the console. The cup holder is either interchangeable with one of the face plates, or is connectable to an outside surface of the console proper. The cup holder includes one or more beverage receptacle receivers each molded continuous with a top plate thereof with an opening contiguous with an external surface thereof and sized to receive a beverage receptacle, and a plurality of accessory receivers each molded continuous with the top plate with an opening contiguous with the external surface thereof, wherein at least one of the accessory receivers is molded with a different shape than the beverage receptacle receivers.

A storage device is provided with a sliding lid slidably contacting guide rails formed at both side ends of an opening of the storage device, and when the sliding lid is stored in an accommodating section formed continuously to a rear end of the opening, the sliding lid opens at the storage device. In the storage device, in sliding sections where the guide rails and sliding lid slidably contact each other, there are formed buffer sections for allowing the sliding lid to be displaced toward a direction orthogonal to a sliding direction. Therefore, the buffer sections are deformed during the opening and covering movements, so a play can be eliminated.

A console box of the present invention has a box main body, a pair of sidewalls, and an armrest. The box main body is located between the sidewalls, and the armrest is located above the box main body. Each sidewall has a guide groove extending in the moving direction of the vehicle. The armrest has a pair of engaging pins. Each engaging pin is engaged with and slides along one of the guide grooves. Thus, the armrest smoothly slides along the moving direction of the vehicle.

A reconfigurable vehicle console having a plurality of interchangeable tongue-and-groove blank and equipment mounting panels and quick disconnect clamps associated with each panel.

An integrated storage system for vehicles includes an expandable container secured to and extendable from a vertical panel of the vehicle to at least one predetermined position to accommodate cargo. The container is collapsible so that it is substantially flush with the vertical panel when not in use and may be made of fabric or netting, for example. A semi-rigid end panel with a handle may be secured to the container to facilitate deploying and stowing the container. Depending on the application, the container may be removable from the vehicle to transport cargo. The storage system may be integrated into various locations including a cargo area, behind a seat or seats, in a truck bed, or in the trunk of a vehicle, for example.
