摘要: An accessory attachment system includes a baseplate that provides an attachment interface on a support surface. The baseplate is configured to engage with at least one accessory via the attachment interface to secure the accessory to the support surface. The attachment interface provides a plurality of different mounting positions for the at least one accessory. At least one mounting foot is associated with the at least one accessory and is configured to be selectively coupled to the attachment interface to provide a desired one of the plurality of different mounting positions. The at least one mounting foot includes an adjustment feature to account for any warpage of the support surface when the at least one accessory is mounted in the desired one of the plurality of different mounting positions.

摘要: An accessory attachment system includes a base plate that provides a plate attachment interface and at least one accessory including an accessory attachment interface to connect to the plate attachment interface. In one example, the accessory attachment interface comprises at least one mounting foot that has a predefined shape to pull the at least one accessory against a side wall mounted base plate as the foot is inserted into an aperture in the base plate and moved vertically to a mounted position. In one example, a locking mechanism that is separate from the mounting foot is movable between a locked position where the accessory is prevented from being removed from the base plate and an unlocked position where the at least one accessory is allowed to be removed from the base plate. In one example, there is a power connection interface between the base plate and the accessory, and there is at least one accessory locking mechanism powered via the power connection interface to allow at least one of a handle and a lid to be placed in a locked condition.

摘要: An adjustment system includes at least one base plate, at least one accessory supported by the at least one base plate, and a controller that receives input from at least one sensor. The controller determines a position of the at least one accessory on the at least one base plate and makes a recommendation to adjust a position of the at least one accessory within the vehicle cargo area to increase aerodynamic efficiency.

摘要: An adjustable base plate system includes a first track structure configured to extend along one side of a vehicle cargo area and a second track structure configured to extend along an opposite side of a vehicle cargo area. At least one base plate has a first edge and a second edge opposite of the first edge, wherein the first edge is supported by the first track structure and the second edge is supported by the second track structure. The first track structure and the second track structure each comprise at least a first tier track and a second tier track such that a distance between a bottom surface of the at least one base plate and a support surface of the vehicle cargo area can be adjusted.

摘要: An inductive connection system includes a baseplate that provides an attachment interface on a support surface. The baseplate is configured to engage with at least one accessory via the attachment interface to secure the accessory to the support surface. The attachment interface provides a plurality of different mounting positions for the at least one accessory. At least one puck is selectively coupled to the attachment interface to provide a desired one of the plurality of different mounting positions. One of the at least one puck and the at least one accessory includes an inductive transmitter and the other of the at least one puck and the at least one accessory includes an inductive receiver such that the at least one puck in the baseplate and the at least one accessory electrically connect to each other through a wireless electrical power link between the inductive transmitter and the inductive receiver when the at least one accessory is mounted in the desired one of the plurality of different mounting positions.
