Abstract
A lightweight safety tray particularly suitable for use in the passenger compartment of a moving vehicle, and including a generally rectangular support frame of low density, highly resilient polymeric material, which frame has a flat bottom, front, rear and opposing side walls, with a sunken planar shelf in the upper surface portion of the frame which is bounded by upward extensions of the frame walls. The planar shelf has an array of regular shaped cavities in its upper surface which provides a grid of longitudinally and transversely extending ribs. A generally flat plastic corrugated board covers the planar shelf. There is a flexible, resilient plastic outer coating which envelopes the entire outer surfaces of the combined frame and corrugated board, and which holds the board in place, and whereby an upper tray working surface is provided which is bounded on four sides by the upward wall extensions.
