Abstract

A sliding vehicle storage system is described for mounting on two opposing interior side walls of a vehicle. The storage system provides for a platform slidingly received in a vehicle which may be positioned at different heights in relation to the side walls of a vehicle to provide versatility in use. The storage system includes, in relation to each of two opposing interior side walls, mounting means attached to a support assembly. Each support assembly includes a mounting plate connected to an outer track assembly including a plurality of wheel bearings held operatively in place within the outer track assembly, and a locking plate. An inner track assembly slidingly mates with the outer track assembly. A cross member support is connected to the inner track assembly. Extending between the two inner track assemblies upon the two opposing vehicle side walls are at least two cross members supported by the cross member support of each opposing support assembly. A platform is supported by the at least two cross members. A locking assembly is present in relation to the sliding platform structure. The locking assembly operates in conjunction with the locking plate to selectively lock or unlock the platform in one or more predetermined positions. The sliding storage apparatus is readily installed within storage areas of various sizes and provides multiple accessible storage areas within a vehicle to accommodate storage of variously sized items.
