Vehicle shields and supports
An example of an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a mount to secure in a vehicle. The mount includes a first lip to insert into a first gap and a first surface to brace against a first wall. The apparatus further includes an additional mount to secure in the vehicle. The additional mount includes a second lip to insert into a second gap and a second surface to brace against a second wall. The second gap is opposite the first gap and the second wall is opposite the first wall. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a support member supported by the mounts at each end. In addition, the apparatus includes a barrier structure supported by the support member wherein the barrier structure is to separate a first occupant of the vehicle from a second occupant of the vehicle.
1. A mount comprising:
a body;
a lip formed from the body, wherein the lip is to be inserted into a gap;
a surface of the body to brace against a wall;
a first depression into the body to receive a first support member; and
a second depression into the body to receive a second support member, wherein at least one of the first support member and the second support member are to support a barrier structure.
2. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the first depression is to receive a first end of the first support member to support an upper portion of the barrier structure.
3. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the second depression is to receive a second end of the second support member to support a lower portion of the barrier structure.
4. The mount of claim 1 , wherein the gap is formed between a first interior panel of a vehicle and the wall, wherein the wall is a second interior panel of the vehicle.
5. The mount of claim 4 , wherein the first interior panel is a headliner.
6. The mount of claim 4 , wherein the second interior panel is a B-pillar.
7. The mount of any claim 1 , wherein the lip is removably secured within the gap.
8. The mount of claim 7 , wherein the lip is to friction fit within the gap.
9. An apparatus comprising:
a first mount to secure in a vehicle, wherein the first mount is a first body including a first lip to insert into a first gap, a first surface to brace against a first wall, and first depressions into the first body;
a second mount to secure in the vehicle, wherein the second mount is a second body including a second lip to insert into a second gap, a second surface to brace against a second wall, and second depressions into the second body, wherein the second gap is opposite the first gap and the second wall is opposite the first wall;
a support member supported by one of the first depressions of the first mount at a first end and by one of the second depressions of the second mount at a second end; and
a barrier structure supported by the support member wherein the barrier structure is to separate a first occupant of the vehicle from a second occupant of the vehicle.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , further comprising a rod supported by the first mount and the second mount, wherein the rod is to support a lower portion of the barrier structure, and wherein the support member is to support an upper portion of the barrier structure.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the upper portion of the barrier structure includes a messaging center.
12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the lower portion of the barrier structure includes a storage compartment.
13. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the first gap is formed between a first interior panel of the vehicle and the first wall, and wherein the second gap is formed between a second interior panel of the vehicle and the second wall.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the first interior panel and the second interior panel are a headliner of the vehicle.
15. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the first wall is a first panel mounted on a first B-pillar of the vehicle and the second wall is a second panel mounted on a second B-pillar of the vehicle.
16. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the first mount is removably secured within the first gap.
17. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein and the second mount is removably secured within the second gap.
18. A vehicle comprising:
a passenger compartment to carry a plurality of occupants in a first row and a second row, wherein the first row includes a first left seat and a first right seat, and wherein the second row includes a second left seat and a second right seat;
a first barrier structure to separate the first row from the second row; and
a second barrier structure mounted substantially perpendicular to the first barrier structure to separate a first side from a second side, wherein the second barrier structure extends from a front windshield to a rear window of the passenger compartment.
19. The vehicle of claim 18 , wherein the first barrier structure includes a messaging center.
