Patent number: 8628133Abstract: A package tray assembly for a trunk of a vehicle includes a package tray and a support for supporting the package tray. The support is to be mounted to a body of the vehicle. The support includes a guide portion having a convex top surface. The package tray is to be attached to the support so as to be rotatable round a point located immediately below the guide portion as a center of rotation. The package tray includes a front end portion supported by the support when attached thereto. The front end portion includes a contact portion configured to move back and forth on the convex top surface while tilting at different angles relative to a moving direction.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2011Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignees: Toyota Boshoku Kabushiki Kaisha, Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki Kaisha, Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota Jidoshokki, Kabushiki Kaisha TakehiroInventors: Satoshi Honda, Koji Toida, Jorge Fialho, Hiromi Takase, Koji Inoue
