PARTITION FOR AUTOMOBILES

摘要

A partition apparatus mounted immediately behind the front seat of an automobile for protecting those in the front seat from physical contact by persons in the rear of the vehicle. It includes an inverted roll bar having a solid transverse plate extending across the back of the front seat. A movable partition is selectively positioned in an upper location extending across the space between the roll bar and the top of the plate. It is movable to a lowered or retracted position by means of a pivot arm and lower slide connection, combining pivotal and translational movement to minimize projection of the partition rearward of the roll bar during movement of the partition. The partition is spring-biased to its upper position.
