Abstract
A vehicle storage assembly includes a mount, a shaft having an end that is rotatably coupled to the mount such that the shaft is rotatable about an axis, a frame configured to support a plurality of rigging accessories, a bin, a locking member, and a locking member receiver. The frame includes an outer wall and a plurality of supports defining a plurality of stations. The bin includes an outer panel disposed a first distance radially outward from the axis and a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of cavities each configured to receive at least a portion of one or more of the plurality of rigging accessories. The locking member receiver is rotatable with the shaft and defines a plurality of openings.
Claims20
A vehicle storage assembly, comprising:
- a mount;
- a shaft having an end that is rotatably coupled to the mount such that the shaft is rotatable about an axis;
- a frame configured to support a plurality of rigging accessories, the frame comprising:
- an outer wall;
- and
- a plurality of supports defining a plurality of stations;
- a bin, comprising:
- an outer panel disposed a first distance radially outward from the axis;
- and
- a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of cavities each configured to receive at least a portion of one or more of the plurality of rigging accessories;
- a locking member;
- and
- a locking member receiver rotatable with the shaft and defining a plurality of openings, wherein the locking member is configured to engage with one of the plurality of openings to selectively fix the shaft, the frame, and the bin in a corresponding locking position thereby facilitating operator access to a desired one of the plurality of stations, wherein the locking member receiver is disposed a second distance radially outward from the axis, and wherein the second distance is less than the first distance such that the locking member receiver is disposed radially inward relative to the outer panel of the bin.
A vehicle storage assembly, comprising:
- a mount;
- a post having an end that is rotatably coupled to the mount such that the post is rotatable about an axis;
- an upper member configured to support a plurality of rigging accessories, the upper member comprising:
- an outer wall;
- and
- a plurality of supports defining a plurality of stations;
- a lower member, comprising:
- an outer panel disposed a first distance radially outward from the axis;
- and
- a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of cavities each configured to receive at least a portion of one or more of the plurality of rigging accessories;
- a locking member;
- and
- a locking member receiver rotatable with the post and defining a plurality of openings, wherein the locking member is configured to engage with one of the plurality of openings to selectively fix the post, the upper member, and the lower member in a corresponding locking position thereby facilitating operator access to a desired one of the plurality of stations, wherein the locking member receiver is disposed a second distance radially outward from the axis, and wherein the second distance is less than the first distance such that the locking member receiver is disposed radially inward relative to the outer panel of the lower member.
A vehicle storage assembly, comprising:
- a mount;
- a post having an end that is rotatably coupled to the mount such that the post is rotatable about an axis;
- an upper member configured to support a plurality of rigging accessories, the upper member comprising:
- an outer wall comprising a curved strip having a first height defined parallel to the axis and a thickness defined in a radial direction perpendicular to the axis, wherein the first height is greater than the thickness such that the curved strip is configured to limit rotation of at least a hook of the plurality of rigging accessories;
- and
- a plurality of supports defining a plurality of stations;
- a lower member, comprising:
- an outer panel disposed a first distance radially outward from the axis, the outer panel having a second height defined parallel to the axis;
- and
- a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of cavities each configured to receive at least a portion of one or more of the plurality of rigging accessories, wherein at least one of the plurality of partitions includes an uppermost outer edge having a third height defined parallel to the axis, and wherein the third height is not greater than the second height;
- a locking member;
- and
- a locking member receiver rotatable with the post and defining a plurality of openings, wherein the locking member is configured to engage with one of the plurality of openings to selectively fix the post, the upper member, and the lower member in a corresponding locking position thereby facilitating operator access to a desired one of the plurality of stations, wherein the locking member receiver is disposed a second distance radially outward from the axis, and wherein the second distance is less than the first distance such that the locking member receiver is disposed radially inward relative to the outer panel of the lower member.
