A partition for use in vehicles having interior cabin space including at least one row of seats, the partition comprising:
- (a) a deformable frame defining a perimeter, the deformable frame being at least partially covered with a fabric material;
- and
- (b) at least one attachment device for attaching the deformable frame to a portion of a vehicle;
- (c) wherein, upon installation in a vehicle, the deformable frame separates a first passenger seat of the vehicle from a second passenger seat in the same row.
A partition for use in vehicles having interior cabin space including at least one row of seats, the partition comprising:
- (a) a semi-rigid, deformable frame formed of a wire-based material, the deformable frame defining a perimeter and being at least partially covered with a fabric material;
- and
- (b) at least one attachment device for tool-lessly attaching the deformable frame to a portion of a vehicle;
- (c) wherein, upon installation in a vehicle, the deformable frame separates a first passenger seat of the vehicle from a second passenger seat in the same row;
- and
- (d) wherein the deformable frame is configured to be collapsible upon itself, thereby reducing the size thereof for storage.
A partition for use in vehicles having interior cabin space including at least one row of seats, the partition comprising:
- (a) a deformable frame defining a perimeter;
- (b) a base attached to the deformable frame;
- and
- (c) a fabric material at least partially covering the deformable frame at the perimeter thereof;
