Vehicular floor mat

摘要

A floor mat for a vehicle includes an adapter plate for engaging the vehicle's mat retaining system, a mat portion, and a fastener for securing the mat portion to the adapter plate. The configuration of the adapter plat allows the mat portion to be transversely, longitudinally, and rotationally aligned and secured to the vehicle's floor despite variations in the arrangements of different vehicles' mat retaining systems.

主权项

1. An adapter for enabling aligning and securing of a mat for a vehicle floor to a vehicle mat retainer, the mat retainer defining a first fixed vertical axis, the adapter comprising:
a planar panel disposable between the mat and the vehicle floor and having a primary receiver engagable with the vehicle mat retainer such that the adapter is pivotable along a substantially horizontal plane relative to the vehicle floor about the first fixed vertical axis, and the planar panel having a plurality of secondary receivers selectably engagable with the mat; and cleats depending downwardly from the planar panel to engage the vehicle's floor and prevent inadvertent movement of the adapter relative thereto; wherein the secondary receivers each define singular second vertical axes about which the mat can be rotated three hundred and sixty angular degrees on a substantially horizontal plane relative to the adaptor when selectably engaged therewith.
