  • Patent number: 9352694
    Abstract: A folding seat assembly includes a pair of seats each of which has a backrest and a seat cushion. A luggage compartment cover housing is attached to each backrest so as to cover substantially the entire rear face of each backrest for stowing an individual flexible luggage compartment cover for each seat. This enables each backrest to be folded into a stowed position without the need to remove the respective flexible luggage compartment cover or the respective luggage compartment cover housing and produces a substantially flat obstruction free load surface when so folded.

  • Publication number: 20140306477
    Abstract: A center console for a motor vehicle is disclosed in which the center console includes a front portion and a rear storage box portion defined by a pair of side walls, a rear wall, a floor, an armrest and a front wall. The front wall of the storage box is moveable between substantially upright and substantially horizontal positions so as to define two distinct storage configurations. When the front wall is in the upright position a single large closed storage box is defined by the pair of side walls, the rear wall, the floor, the armrest and the front wall. When the front wall is in the horizontal position a first large open storage area is defined by the pair of side walls, the rear wall, the armrest and the front wall. A reconfigurable storage facility is thereby provided in a cost effective and simple manner.
