ABSTRACT:
A vehicle console for mounting and enclosing radios and the like characterized by a box-like enclosure having a frontwardly facing access opening that is coverable by an access door. The access door is lockable, and outwardly pivotable so that a radio and the like, having frontwardly presented control panels, may be easily adjusted when the door is downwardly opened. The box-like enclosure is pivotable with respect to a bracket that is adapted to be mounted upon an vehicle surface. To ensure secure anti-theft mounting of the bracket to a vehicle surface, square aperture holes are provided in a downwardly disposed flange of the bracket so that the carriage head bolts may be downwardly inserted therethrough, thereby rendering it impossible to remove the mounting bolts from above. In a preferred embodiment the console is particularly adapted for mounting upon the drive shaft tunnel of a vehicle, wherein removal of the carriage bolts necessitates access from beneath the vehicle, in the vicinity of the drive shaft. The console of the present invention significantly provides a lockable box-like enclosure, for such electronic items as CB radios, wherein the provision of knock-outs and vented surfaces of the enclosure even permit transmitting and receiving on the radio while the access door is locked securely in place, leaving a conventional hand microphone attached to an external bracket on the outside of the enclosure.
