摘要： A component configured to dispense scent in a vehicle interior may comprise a scent-dispensing apparatus configured for at least one scent-dispensing cartridge (removable/replaceable) containing scent media. The apparatus may comprise an actuator operable in a bypass mode or for selection/actuation of a cartridge. A selected cartridge may be actuated from a sealed state to prevent airflow to an unsealed state to allow airflow across/through scent media and into the vehicle interior. The actuator may comprise a mechanism (e.g. slider, cam mechanism); each cartridge may comprise a valve mechanism actuated by the actuator; each mechanism may comprise a spring. The scent-dispensing apparatus may comprise a retainer to retain the scent-dispensing cartridge for use and to release the scent-dispensing cartridge for removal and a plunger to present the scent-dispensing cartridge to facilitate removal. The component may comprise a console, overhead console, floor console, center console, etc.

摘要： A component for use in a vehicle that may be subjected to an event/external force is disclosed. The component may comprise a bin; a cover moveable between closed and open positions; a latch mechanism to hold and release the cover; a catch mechanism moveable to a blocking position to prevent the cover from opening. The cover may be retained by the catch mechanism in the closed position. The catch mechanism may comprise a pin moveable relative to the cover within a catch/track of the cover. The catch mechanism may move from the blocking position to a second blocking position to prevent the cover from opening. The catch mechanism may release the cover to facilitate opening of the cover in response to (a) a first actuating force applied to the cover; (b) release of the first actuating force; and (c) a second actuating force applied to the cover.

摘要： A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base and a door/cover configured to move from a latched position to cover a bin to an open position to uncover the bin through an unlatched position; and a blocking mechanism configured to actuate a keeper/blocker to move in response to a force from a retracted position to an extended position to prevent the door/cover from moving toward the open position. The mechanism may comprise a blocker/keeper to move from a default/retracted position to a blocking/deployed position to prevent the door/cover from moving to the open position (e.g. in response to the external force). The mechanism may comprise an arm configured to rotate in response to the external force against a retaining spring to engage the blocker/keeper. The component may comprise a console; the cover may comprise a door.
