Abstract:
A container for installation under a vehicle seat, such as a bus seat is for storing articles restrained from movement during transport, and then easily removed by the user prior to exiting the bus. The container has a generally flat bottom panel, upstanding side panels, and a back panel extending generally normal to the bottom panel. A retainer ridge extends from the bottom panel across the front of the container, the retainer ridge being positioned generally parallel with the rear plane seat. In one embodiment, the forward portion of the container is raised off the floor of the bus and the bottom of the unit slopes downwardly in a direction toward the rear of the vehicle, and the bottom of the container has a plurality of perforations in order to permit dirt and small debris to fall therethrough. In alternate embodiments, either or both of the sides and back of the container may also be perforated.
