Abstract: A floor mat has a base formed of an elastomer. A fibrous layer insert has a peripheral margin protected by a peripheral wall and an inwardly extending overhang of the base. A flange of the base surrounds and downwardly extends from the peripheral wall and ends at a floor plane. Spaced-apart flange support ribs downwardly extend from a lower surface of the flange to the floor plane.

Abstract: An injection-molded cargo liner has a floor panel, at least one seat back panel and first and second pleats joining the floor panel to the seat back panel. Living hinges between adjacent ones of the panels and pleats are made by reducing thickness. A surface of each hinge is concave in the direction of folding. The pleats allow the seat back panel to travel with the seat back, as the seat back is moved forward and down. In this way, the cargo liner provides a continuous barrier against dirt and water.

Abstract: An injection-molded cargo liner has a floor panel, at least one seat back panel and a plurality of accordion pleats joining the floor panel to the seat back panel. Living hinges between adjacent ones of the panels and pleats are made by reducing thickness. The pleats allow the seat back panel to travel with the seat back, as the seat back is moved forward and down. In this way, the cargo liner provides a continuous barrier against dirt and water.

Abstract: A cupholder adapter for a large beverage container has a base, a container holder that upwardly extends from the base, and a shell insert that extends downwardly from the base. The shell insert snaps into a first shell, which may be press-fit into OEM vehicle cupholders of a relatively small size. Further shells may be sequentially and releasably attached over the first shell to fit the assembly to OEM vehicle cupholders of larger sizes. An axis of the container holder may be offset from the axis of the shell insert, so as to permit two such cupholder adapters to be installed in two cupholders closely spaced from each other in a vehicle center console.

Abstract: Closed sockets are formed in the lower surface of a vehicle floor cover, such as a mat or tray. Each socket is adapted to receive a vehicle floor cover retention device which stands up from the floor of the vehicle foot well in which the floor cover is being installed. The sidewall of the body of each device acts as a physical stop to the sidewall of a respective socket, preventing or mitigating movement of the floor cover within the foot well. The top surface of the device may have a first fastener which is adapted to engage a second fastener on the ceiling of the socket. The device may be an adapter which is fastened to preexisting OEM mat retention structure. Embodiments of the adapter include one assembled from two pieces around an OEM retention post with an enlarged head.
