Abstract
The invention relates to a motor vehicle interior compartment security shade assembly. The device of this invention enables a security shade to be deployed to various extended positions in use. This capability allows the shade to cover portions of the motor vehicle interior cargo compartment while leaving other portions uncovered to accommodate large carried items. The plural park positions for the shade also eliminate the requirement of full retraction and extension each time the shade position is changed. The various embodiments describe alternate approaches toward providing the features of the invention. Including devices incorporating laterally extending tracks having diverging sections which provide stop position for the shade and other embodiments and another embodiment including an actuated ledge mechanism for the shade pull tube.
