    摘要: Provided is a headliner air distribution system. The system includes a headliner assembly having a lower perforated sheet that is stationary, and an upper perforated sheet that is moveable relative to the first perforated sheet. The headliner assembly is supported upon an underside surface of a vehicle roof by a pair of bracket rails. The arrangement of the bracket rails serves to place the headliner assembly in spaced-apart relationship relative to the underside surface of the vehicle roof, to establish a plenum for receiving HVAC air. The spatial arrangement of the upper perforated sheet relative to the lower perforated sheet is used to control the passage of HVAC air from the plenum through the headliner assembly into the passenger compartment.

    摘要: Provided is an accessory mounting system for use in a cargo bed of a pickup truck. The accessory mounting system comprises a cargo hold assembly and at least one accessory member for releasable attachment to the cargo hold assembly. The at least one accessory member is configured to confer a cargo holding functionality to the cargo hold assembly. The cargo hold assembly includes a base configured to be mounted to a side-wall portion of the cargo bed. The base includes a plurality of registration bosses, each being configured to receive a corresponding registration cavity provided on the at least one accessory member. The at least one accessory member may be mountable upon the base in more than one orientation.

    摘要: A tonneau cover for covering the opening of a cargo bed of a pickup truck. The tonneau cover includes a sandwich panel including a structural core, a first layered section, and a second layered section. The structural core has a top surface and a bottom surface. The first layered section is coupled to the top surface of the structural core, and a second layered section is coupled to the bottom surface of the structural core. Each of the first and second layered sections includes a reinforcement layer, and at least one of the reinforcement layers of the first and second layered sections is a carbon fiber mat. The tonneau cover may have a single panel configuration or a tri-panel configuration.

    摘要: A composite panel includes a first skin layer, an intermediate structural core, and a second skin layer. The first and second skin layers are disposed on opposing sides of the intermediate structural core. The intermediate structural core provides a geometric array of structural members, the arrangement of which is defined using topology optimization.

    摘要: An expandable cargo box assembly for mounting on a side wall section of a cargo bed of a pickup truck includes a base member for attaching the expandable cargo box assembly to the side wall section of the cargo bed, the base member having the form of an outer wall plate. Opposite the outer wall plate is an inner wall plate, the inner wall plate being displaceable from a first position to a second position, the first position defining a collapsed state, and the second position defining a deployed state. The outer and inner wall plates have operably associated therebetween a folding floor assembly, and the outer wall plate supports a forward folding wall and a rearward folding wall. Upon expanding the expandable cargo box assembly to a deployed state, the folding floor assembly and the forward and rearward folding walls are arranged to define an enclosure for receiving cargo.

    摘要: A load floor assembly for a motor vehicle. The load floor assembly comprises a structural core, a first surface layer situated on a first side of the structural core, and a second surface layer situated on a second side of the structural core. The load floor assembly also includes an embedded layer positioned intermediate at least one of the first and second surface layers and the structural core. At least one electronic component is incorporated into the embedded layer, to provide a secondary functionality to the load floor assembly.
