A console assembly having a hood and a shroud. The hood has one or more base mounting points configured for installation to a vehicle body structure, and one or more accessory mounting points spaced from and rigidly connected to the one or more base mounting points. The shroud defines an enclosed volume, and is configured to install over the hood, with the one or more base mounting points contained within the enclosed volume, and the one or more accessory mounting points located outside the enclosed volume. When the hood is attached to the vehicle body structure and the shroud is installed over the hood, the hood is configured to convey respective loads applied to the one or more accessory mounting points to the one or more base mounting points independently of the shroud. A hood assembly and a method for installing a console assembly are also provided.

Vehicle console assembly

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for mounting an object such as a keyboard within a vehicle are disclosed. One mounting system includes a keyboard and a mounting apparatus. The keyboard includes at least one aperture. The mounting apparatus includes a base, a slide plate, a latch, and a locking mechanism. The slide plate is coupled to the base and is slidable in a predetermined direction relative to the base. The latch is movable between an engaged position that prevents the slide plate from sliding relative to the base and a disengaged position that does not prevent the slide plate from sliding relative to the base. The locking mechanism is movable between a locked position in which the locking mechanism engages the at least one aperture to lock the keyboard to the slide plate and an unlocked position in which the locking mechanism does not engage the at least one aperture.

Keyboard mounting system

Systems for mounting an object within a vehicle are disclosed. One such system includes a mounting plate, a bracket, and a hinge. The mounting plate is configured to be affixed to a dashboard of the vehicle. The bracket is adapted to receive the object to be mounted. The hinge has a base portion and a body portion movable relative to the base portion. The base portion of the hinge is mounted to the mounting plate and the body portion of the hinge is mounted to the bracket. The body portion of the hinge is pivotable relative to the base portion around a first axis, and the body portion of the hinge is rotatable around a second axis different from the first axis.

Vehicle mounting system

Vehicle trunk mounting systems and methods are disclosed. A mounting system comprises a frame adapted to be secured within the trunk and a platform adapted to support a device thereon. The frame comprises a hinge portion and a guide portion. The platform is movably secured within the frame. The frame is rotatable around the hinge portion between a first position in which the platform is substantially horizontal and a second position in which the platform is substantially upright. The platform is slidable within the guide portion when the frame is in the first position. A mounting method comprises mounting the device on the platform, slidably repositioning the platform within the frame, and rotating the frame between the first position and the second position.
