  • Patent number: 5855291
    Abstract: Apparatus is provided for a safe, convenient and practical method of securing goods and packages inside a vehicle. The device comprises a generally rectangular, open storage facility which is collapsible to an approximately flat configuration. The device can be situated in various locations inside the vehicle, and can be easily stored in the trunk or under the seats when not in use. Two handles on either side of the device allow the same to be carried or readily moved within the vehicle. A generally flexible netting functions as an alternative base for the device, reducing the risk that fragile items would become loose and break or crack. The netting is also adapted to fit over the top of the device, preventing the escape of articles from open areas of vehicles such as a pick-up truck.
