Abstract:
In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a cargo management system for use in a cargo area of a vehicle. The system may use a track secured to a wall of the cargo area. An articulating system is secured to the track and adjustably positionable at a plurality of positions along the track. The articulating system includes a mounting panel adapted to be secured to the track, at least a first frame section, and a first articulating hinge system for supporting the first frame section for movement on the mounting plate. The first articulating hinge system has a first actuating element normally held in a locked orientation to hold the first frame section stationary, and movable into an unlocked position by a rotational force applied by a user, to enable the first articulating hinge system to be rotated on the mounting plate into a new orientation, and then held in the new orientation when the first actuating element is released by the user.

Claim (Index 10):
A cargo management system for use in a cargo area of a vehicle, the system including:\n a track secured to a wall of the cargo area of the vehicle; an articulating system secured to the track and adjustably positionable along the track so as to be securable at a plurality of positions along the track; the articulating system including:\n a mounting panel adapted to be secured to the track; \n at least a first frame section; \n a first articulating hinge system for supporting the first frame section for movement relative to the mounting plate, and having a rotationally movable first actuating element; \n a second frame section; \n a second articulating hinge system for coupling the first and second frame section for movement relative to each other, and having a rotationally movable second actuating element; \n each of the first and second actuating elements held in a normally locked orientation to hold the first frame section stationary relative to the second frame section; \n the first actuating element being configured to be movable into an unlocked position by a rotational force applied by a user, which enables the first frame section to be articulated freely relative to the second frame section, and then held in a new angular orientation when the first actuating element is released by the user; and \n the second actuating element being configured to be movable into an unlocked position by rotational force applied by the user, which enables the second frame section to be articulated freely relative to the mounting plate while the second actuating element is being held in the unlocked position and then held in a new angular orientation when the second actuating element is released by the user.
