ABSTRACT:
The invention described herein pertains generally to a removable storage bin fastening system, particularly adapted for use in minivans. More specifically, the system utilizes a slidably engageable bracket which is releasably fastened to existing mounting bars in the floor of the van where the seats which normally be located, and further wherein the bracket is attached to a base plate which anchors various storage configurations. The slidably engageable bracket is secured into the striker pins either by (a) a vertical adjustment device which has a pair of opposed sides, a pivot pin between the sides, and a pair of curved surfaces at the bottom of the opposed sides and wherein the J-shaped hook cooperatively interacts through the pivotal motion of the handle through the pivot pin and curved surfaces to move up and down thereby releasing or securing the bracket by the physical contact of the J-shaped hook on the striker pin or (b) a vertical adjustment device which has a threaded J-shaped hook which is threaded at a top of the hook, and a mating pair of threads in the handle, and wherein the J-shaped hook cooperatively interacts through rotational movement of the handle to move up and down thereby releasing or securing the bracket by the physical contact of the J-shaped hook on the striker pin.
