Abstract:
1. A mounting structure for selectively sliding a container along and securing the container within a rail pair disposed in a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, comprising: a substantially horizontally extending guide groove on a mutually facing side of each rail of the rail pair, each guide groove comprising, in cross section, an upper inclined surface and a lower inclined surface; at least one projection having a first portion with a substantially circular cross section mounted in the container on at least one side facing a corresponding one of the rail pair, wherein each guide groove has a cross section and the at least one projection has a second portion with a corresponding cross section, and wherein the at least one projection is part of a corresponding bolt having a substantially circular cross section and displaceably mounted in the container; and a first spring adapted to act on said bolt, wherein the at least one projection of the corresponding bolt is pretensioned against the corresponding guide groove and the corresponding bolt is movable from the corresponding guide groove with at least one control member mounted in the container against a force of said first spring; wherein said corresponding cross section of said second portion of said at least one projection is expanded toward the container forming a truncated cone and said cross section of each guide groove expands from a groove base forming a correspondingly frustoconical cross section, such that when said corresponding bolt is pretensioned against the corresponding guide groove, said at least one projection contacts said upper inclined surface and said lower inclined surface to thereby secure the container within the rail pair, and further wherein the container is slidable along the rail pair when said corresponding bolt is moved away from the corresponding guide groove.
