Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a storage compartment for a motor vehicle. The storage compartment has an improved mechanism for opening and closing a lid. The storage compartment is particularly suitable for a passenger compartment, such as a storage compartment in an armrest of a center console or as a glove compartment.

Abstract: A container support for holding a container has a lower base and upper holding member. The base receives the container which bears on the base in a bearing direction. The holding member has an opening for receiving the container. The holding member is connected to the base by a connecting mechanism configured such that the holding member is movable relative to the base in translation along the bearing direction.

Abstract: An apparatus for detachably holding a portable electronic device, the apparatus including a receiving part for the device and closure means, the receiving part including a base for supporting the device, wherein the closure means is movably mounted relative to the receiving part, the closure means including a lever and fixing element, the fixing element arranged on a side of the receiving part opposite the base, the fixing element designed to exert a holding force in the direction of the base onto the device to be held, the lever mounted rotatably on the fixing element via a first swivel pin, the apparatus further including a holding element fixed to the receiving part, a locking element coupled to the lever, and a stop for the locking element, the locking element designed to block the movement of the closure means relative to the receiving part and release movement of the closure means.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for detachably holding a portable electronic device, wherein the apparatus comprises a receiving part for the device and a closure means, wherein the receiving part comprises a base for supporting the device, wherein the closure means is mounted so as to be movable relative to the receiving part, wherein the closure means comprises a lever and a fixing element, wherein the fixing element is arranged on a side of the receiving part opposite the base, wherein the fixing element is designed to exert a holding force in the direction of the base onto the device to be held, wherein the lever is mounted rotatably on the fixing element via a first swivel pin, wherein the apparatus further comprises a holding element fixed to the receiving part, a locking element coupled to the lever, and a stop for the locking element, said stop being rigidly connected to the fixing element, wherein the locking element is designed, at a distance from the stop, to block the movement of the closure
