Filed:
Jan 24, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/019550
Inventors:
Erik Anderson - Plymouth MI, US

Robert Blanchard - Fenton MI, US
Assignee:
Nissan Technical Center North America, Inc. - Farmington Hills MI
International Classification:
B60R 9/00
US Classification:
296 376
Abstract:
A vehicle cargo sidewall structure includes a vertical inboard wall panel, a vertical outboard wall panel, door panel and a storage bin. The inboard wall panel includes an access opening. The outboard wall panel extends along side the inboard wall panel to define a side wall structure with a concealed storage space located between the inboard and outboard wall panels. The storage space is accessible via the access opening. The door panel moves between a closed position overlaying the access opening concealing the storage space and an opened position exposing the storage space. The storage bin is coupled to the door panel for movement therewith such that with the door panel in the closed position the storage bin is disposed within the storage space and with the door panel in the opened position the storage bin at least partially extends out of the storage space.
