Covering configuration
View Patent ↗A covering configuration has a loading space covering and is arranged behind a vehicle seat in a motor vehicle. The loading space covering extends in a transverse direction of the vehicle and is held at its longitudinal ends in corresponding receptacles on the vehicle. It is important that the receptacle on the driver side is configured such that the one longitudinal end of the loading space covering can be inserted horizontally while a receptacle on the passenger side is configured in such a manner that the other longitudinal end of the loading space covering can be pivoted counter to the direction of travel of the motor vehicle into the receptacle and can be latched therein, or vice versa. In this case, the receptacles on the driver and passenger sides are configured and arranged such that installation of the loading space covering is possible from a passenger compartment.

5. The covering configuration according to claim 1 ,
wherein said receptacles have latching units selected from the group consisting of mating latching elements and latching openings formed therein; and
further comprising further latching elements disposed on at least one of said longitudinal ends of said loading space covering housing, said further latching elements interacting with said latching units.
6. The covering configuration according to claim 5 ,
wherein said loading space covering housing has longitudinal end caps;
further comprising at least one spring device, via said spring device at least one of said longitudinal end caps or at least one of said further latching elements is prestressed away from said loading space covering housing in a longitudinal direction thereof.
7. The covering configuration according to claim 1 , wherein said loading space covering housing is disposed directly behind the vehicle seat.
8. The covering configuration according to claim 1 , wherein said loading space covering housing has a gap covering which, in a case of vehicle seats with adjustable backrests, covers a gap between the adjustable backrests and said loading space covering housing.
9. The covering configuration according to claim 8 , wherein said gap covering is prestressed in a direction of the adjustable backrest.
10. The covering configuration according to claim 1 , wherein said loading space covering housing is disposed behind a rear seat of the motor vehicle.
11. A motor vehicle, comprising:
a covering configuration, containing:
receptacles;
a vehicle seat;
a loading space covering housing disposed behind said vehicle seat, said loading space covering housing having longitudinal ends and extending in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and being held at said longitudinal ends in said receptacles, said loading space covering housing having a covering stored in and released from said loading space covering housing for covering an area of the motor vehicle; and
said receptacles including a driver side receptacle configured such that a first of said longitudinal ends of said loading space covering housing can be inserted horizontally and a passenger side receptacle configured such that a second of said longitudinal ends of said loading space covering housing can be pivoted counter to the direction of travel of the motor vehicle into said passenger side receptacle and can be latched therein, or vice versa, said driver side receptacle and said passenger side receptacle are configured and disposed such that installation of said loading space covering housing is possible from a passenger compartment.
12. The covering configuration according to claim 11 , further comprising an inner lining and said receptacles are disposed on said inner lining.
13. The covering configuration according to claim 11 , further comprising a C pillar and said receptacles are disposed in a region of said C pillar.
