An illustrative embodiment of a vehicle having a cargo area and a cab area is provided, wherein the cargo area may include a conveyor assembly. The conveyor assembly may include a conveyor assembly section and a pivotable conveyor assembly section. The conveyor assembly section includes at least one conveyor shelf panel which includes a support surface. The pivotable conveyor assembly section may include a bracket that supports a pivotable conveyor panel.

Vehicle conveyor system

A vehicle is provided which has a rack assembly located in the vehicle. The rack includes a rail, a shelf movable along the rail between extended and retracted positions, and a track located adjacent the rail. The track includes a plurality of stop positions, each located at periodically spaced apart locations along the track. The shelf is selectively securable at a plurality of intermediate positions between the extended and retracted positions. The periodically spaced apart locations of the plurality of stop positions along the track are the intermediate positions that the shelf is selectively securable at. The shelf includes a stop member selectively engageable with the each stop position of the plurality of stop positions. When the stop member engages one stop position of the plurality of stop positions, the shelf is secured at one intermediate position of the plurality of intermediate positions between the extended and retracted positions.

Delivery vehicle rack system

Illustratively, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle that includes an entrance to an interior compartment. A step assembly is located adjacent the entrance of the vehicle and includes at least one step and at least one riser. The at least one riser is attached to and substantially perpendicular to the at least one step. The step assembly also includes an opening that allows access behind the step assembly. A lid is provided that includes a hinge to allow selective movement of the lid between open and closed positions with respect to the opening in the step assembly. A securement is attached to the underside surface of the lid to hold the lid to the step assembly. This securement, however, does not extend upward from the top surface of the lid.
