Definitions

  • the present invention further relates to a vehicle interior component including a support structure having an opening.
  • the vehicle interior component also includes a fabric panel coupled to the support structure.
  • the fabric panel is formed from a continuous sheet of material knitted into a multi-dimensional shape that includes at least one pleat, and the at least one pleat is configured to facilitate elongation of the fabric panel to cover at least a portion of the opening.
  • FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a storage assembly having a multi-dimensional knitted fabric panel, in which the storage assembly is removable from a retaining structure.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a part of the interior 12 of the vehicle 10 of FIG. 1.
  • the vehicle interior 12 includes multiple interior components, such as the floor console 16, the instrument panel 18, a center console 20, a door panel 22, a headliner 24, sun visors 26, and an overhead console 28.
  • certain interior components may include a support structure and a fabric panel coupled to the support structure.
  • the fabric panel is formed from a continuous sheet of material, which is knitted into a multi-dimensional shape.
  • the floor console 16, the instrument panel 18, the center console 20, the door panel 22, the headliner 24, the sun visors 26, and/or the overhead console 28 may include a fabric panel having a recess configured to receive an object for storage.
  • the fabric panel 34 includes a first recess 40 configured to receive a larger object (e.g., shopping bag, purse, etc.) for storage and a second recess 42 configured to receive a smaller object (e.g., cellular phone, music player, sunglasses, etc.) for storage.
  • the fabric panel 34 also includes a pair of recesses 44, each configured to receive a beverage container. The size of the beverage container recesses 44 may be particularly selected to accommodate beverage containers of a desired diameter.
  • the fabric panel 34 includes multiple expandable recesses 46.
  • ribs may be positioned on opposite longitudinal ends of each expandable recess 46, thereby controlling the width (i.e., longitudinal extent) of the recess 46.
  • the ribs may be movable (e.g., in the longitudinal direction) relative to the support structure to adjust the width of each expandable recess, thereby enabling the recess to accommodate objects of various dimensions. While the illustrated embodiment includes a larger recess 40, a smaller recess 42, two beverage container recesses 44 and three expandable recesses 46, it should be appreciated that alternative embodiments may include more or fewer recesses to provide the desired storage configuration for the vehicle occupants.
  • FIG. 12 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a floor console, in which a multi-dimensional knitted fabric panel substantially covers a hinge.
  • the floor console 16 includes a door 136 configured to rotate about a hinge 138 in a direction 140.
  • the door 136 may be padded and configured to serve as an armrest for vehicle occupants.
  • a fabric panel 142 is coupled to the support structure 32 of the floor console 16 and to the door 136. Similar to the embodiment described above with reference to FIG. 11, the fabric panel 142 is formed from a continuous sheet of material, which is knitted into a multi-dimensional shape that substantially covers the hinge 138. Because the fabric panel 142 substantially covers the hinge 138, the visual appearance of the vehicle interior may be substantially enhanced.
  • the vehicle interior 12 also includes a storage compartment 168 formed within a floor panel 170.
  • the floor panel 170 is positioned forward of the rear seats 160 and includes an opening 172.
  • the opening 172 is configured to facilitate access to an interior of the storage compartment 168.
  • a fabric panel 174 is coupled to the floor panel 170 and configured to cover at least a portion of the opening 172. Similar to the fabric panel 162 described above, the fabric panel 174 includes multiple pleats 176. The pleats 176 are configured to facilitate elongation of the fabric panel 174 to cover at least a portion of the opening 172.
