1. A cargo organiser for a vehicle, the cargo organiser comprising:
a frame at least partially forming a floor of a cargo area of the vehicle;
one or more elongate elements extendable across an opening defined by the frame, wherein the elongate elements engage the frame and are slidable with respect to the frame; and
a plurality of rotatably coupled panels extending across the frame opening, the panels being successively rotatably coupled to one another;
wherein the plurality of rotatably coupled panels are provided between a pair of elongate elements and are rotatably coupled to the elongate elements.
2. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the frame is movable with respect to the cargo area of the vehicle.
3. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the elongate elements comprise a locking mechanism provided at one or each end of the elongate element, the locking mechanism being configured to lock the position of the elongate element with respect to the frame.
4. The cargo organiser of claim 3 , wherein the locking mechanism is configured to be releasable when the elongate element is depressed relative to the frame.
5. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of rotatably coupled panels are provided adjacent to at least one of the elongate elements.
6. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the rotatably coupled panels are disposed such that the rotatably coupled panels rotate with respect to each other about an axis parallel to a longitudinal axis defined by the elongate elements.
7. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the elongate elements comprise a handle.
8. The cargo organiser of claim 7 , wherein the handle is formed by an opening in the elongate element.
9. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the frame is rotatable with respect to the cargo area of the vehicle.
10. The cargo organiser of claim 9 , wherein the frame is configured such that the frame rotates with respect to the cargo area about an axis perpendicular to a longitudinal axis defined by the elongate element.
11. The cargo organizer of claim 1 , wherein the frame comprises a panel, the panel comprising the opening.
12. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the frame is configured so that it is substantially flush with the cargo area when in a stowed position.
13. The cargo organiser of claim 1 , wherein the cargo organiser comprises one or more frame handles provided on the frame.
14. The cargo organiser of claim 13 , wherein the frame handles are collapsible relative to the frame.
15. A vehicle comprising:
a cargo organiser including a frame at least partially forming a floor of a cargo area of the vehicle;
the cargo organizer including one or more elongate elements extendable across an opening defined by the frame, wherein the elongate elements engage the frame and are slidable with respect to the frame; and
a plurality of rotatably coupled panels extending across the frame opening, the panels being successively rotatably coupled to one another;
wherein the plurality of rotatably coupled panels are provided between a pair of elongate elements and are rotatably coupled to the elongate elements.
16. The vehicle of claim 15 , wherein the frame is movable with respect to the cargo area of the vehicle.
17. The vehicle of claim 15 , wherein the elongate elements comprise a locking mechanism provided at one or each end of the elongate element, the locking mechanism being configured to lock the position of the elongate element with respect to the frame.
18. The vehicle of claim 17 , wherein the locking mechanism is configured to be releasable when the elongate element is depressed relative to the frame.
