Connector anchor having multiple direction connectivity

1. A connector anchor for receiving and retaining a buckle clip relative to a mounting structure of a cargo environment, the connector anchor including:

a main mounting portion extending in a plane;

at least one flange configured for engagement with the mounting structure and configured for being secured to the mounting structure, the at least one flange being offset a distance from the main mounting portion and extending substantially parallel to the main mounting portion; and

at least one connecting portion extending between and interconnecting the main mounting portion to the at least one flange; the at least one connecting portion extending transverse to the main mounting portion and the at least one flange; the main mounting portion, the at least one flange and the at least one connecting portion being configured to offset the main mounting portion from the mounting structure and to provide a buckle clip receiving space; and wherein

the main mounting portion having a longitudinal axis and an aperture for receiving the buckle clip, the aperture having a first extent portion extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a first orientation, the aperture having a second extent portion crossing the first extend portion and extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a second, different orientation, and the aperture having a third extent portion crossing the first and second extent portions and extending in a direction at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a third, different orientation.

2. The connector anchor of claim 1 , wherein the main mounting portion has a thickness and the aperture has surfaces defining the aperture that are contained within the thickness of the connector anchor.

3. The connector anchor of claim 1 , further including a second aperture spaced from the aperture along the longitudinal axis, the second aperture having a first extent portion extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a first orientation, the second aperture having a second extent portion crossing the second aperture first extent portion and extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a second, different orientation, and the second aperture having a third extent portion crossing the second aperture first and second extent portions and extending in a direction at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a third, different orientation.

4. The connector anchor of claim 1 , wherein the main mounting portion has a thickness and the aperture has at least one surface portion defining the aperture that extends from the mounting portion beyond the thickness of the mounting portion.

5. The connector anchor of claim 4 , wherein the at least one surface portion defining the aperture extends from the mounting portion for a distance less than an offset distance to the flange.

6. The connector anchor of claim 1 , further including the aperture having a fourth extent portion crossing the first, second and third extent portions and extending in a direction at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the connector anchor for receiving the buckle clip in a fourth, different orientation.

7. The connector anchor of claim 1 , wherein the second extent portion has two opposed ends and a length between the two ends to receive the buckle clip between the two ends, each of the ends being offset a distance from the at least one connecting portion to permit the receipt of the buckle clip into the buckle clip receiving space.
