Abstract: A multifunctional tray in a vehicle armrest adapted to temporarily receive food and beverage items is provided. The tray includes a tray body and a beverage container receiving aperture defined in the tray body. A recessed bin is defined in the tray body spaced apart from the beverage container receiving aperture. The condiment container receiving aperture is defined in the tray body adjacent the recessed bin. The condiment container receiving aperture has a generally segmentary shape defined by a generally circular aperture wall and an intersection between the condiment container receiving aperture and the recessed bin. The segmentary shape is appropriately sized to selectively receive rectangular and circular shape associated condiment containers while permitting access to the associated condiment container through the recessed bin for removal of the associated condiment containers.

Abstract: A vehicle console has multiple storage areas and multiple access points. The vehicle console includes a housing and first through third modules. The housing has first and second sections. The first module is slidingly coupled to the housing and configured to slide over the first section. The second module is slidingly coupled to the housing and the first module and configured to slide over the first and second sections. The third module pivotally coupled to the housing and pivotally moveable between a first position substantially covering the second section and a second position substantially uncovering the second section.

Abstract: A pair of foldable rear seats for a motor vehicle includes a support stub fixed to the vehicle and a pair elongated support arms pivotally connected to the support stub. A pair of seat bottoms are pivotally connected to each of the respective support arms, such that each seat bottom is pivotable between a vertical folded position and a horizontal open position. Further, a pair of seat backs are each pivotally connected to a rear portion of each respective seat bottom in order to fold into the respective seat bottom from an open position. A headrest is slidably disposed on each seat back. Furthermore, a pair of seat legs are each pivotally connected to the seat bottom at an outer portion thereof so that when the seat bottom is in the open state, the seat leg, in its open position, extends from the seat bottom to the vehicle floor.

Abstract: A center console assembly including a rear wall and a pair of sidewalls, the sidewalls being interconnected at a forward end thereof by a bar member assembly. The bar member assembly includes an upper bar member and a lower bar member. The upper bar member defines a first catch that a latch of an upper lid is releasably secured thereto. The lower bar member defines a second catch that a latch of a front panel assembly is secured thereto. The front panel assembly and sidewalls cooperate to releasably retain the front panel assembly in a partially open position or a full open position. The front panel assembly holds a mobile telephone and other small items, such stored items being accessible when the front panel assembly is in one of the open positions.
