To store a mobile phone in the console bin of a vehicle and easily swing it out and hold it in a working position, a bracket mounted on an inner top wall of the bin has a link hinged at both ends for coupling a main phone support to the mount and a slide on the main support for holding the phone. The hinged link allows the phone to swing in and out of the bin between working and storage positions, and the slide permits the phone to be moved further from the bin to allow the bin cover to close. The phone comprises a cradle attached to the slide and a removable handset which may be left in the cradle for use as held by the bracket.

Hinged phone bracket for vehicle

A cellular phone or other battery powered communication device is mounted on a vehicle support surface by a coupling comprising a pair of knobs extending from the surface and a fastener integrated with the replaceable battery of the phone. The fastener comprises a snap-on coupling which grips the knobs and a release tab which withdraws the coupling for phone removal. An electrical coupling on the support contacts terminals on the battery outer surface for connection to recharging and booster circuits.
