Abstract: A fixing board, for an attraction-fastening type freight carrying device to be mounted on the roof of a motor vehicle, has been improved. The fixing board is composed of a magnetic attraction force contact plate, a film-like suction-cup, and a releasing handle. The magnetic attraction force contact plate has a three-layer structure comprising a soft magnet plate, an iron plate and smooth thin-film sheet coated on the iron plate. The iron plate has a plurality of grooves radially extending, which are elongated dead-end grooves. Further, the magnetic attraction force contact plate has a through-hole into which a substantially cylindrical seal lip extending from the suction film is inserted so as to make an air value. This air hole takes on a closed state when the freight carrying device is installed on the vehicle roof, and takes on an open state when being removed therefrom. The film-like suction-cup is formed throughout the circumference of the magnetic attraction force contact plate.
Abstract: To store a mobile phone in the console bin of a vehicle and easily swing it out and hold it in a working position, a bracket mounted on an inner top wall of the bin has a link hinged at both ends for coupling a main phone support to the mount and a slide on the main support for holding the phone. The hinged link allows the phone to swing in and out of the bin between working and storage positions, and the slide permits the phone to be moved further from the bin to allow the bin cover to close. The phone comprises a cradle attached to the slide and a removable handset which may be left in the cradle for use as held by the bracket.
Abstract: A vehicle coat hook assembly in which the coat hook is recessed into the header and is actuated to hanging and recessed positions by a simple push and release by the operator which linearly moves the coat hook to such positions. The actuation of the coat hook is controlled by a push-push mechanism.
