| 20120091747 | ROOF BOW - In one aspect of the present invention, a method is employed to fabricate a roof bow. A first body element and a second body element each have one or more tabs are both formed from a substrate. The tabs of the first body element are clinched to the second body element. The tabs of the second body element are clinched to the first body element. An upper cord is clinched to a top edge of the coupled body elements and a lower cord is clinched to a bottom edge of the coupled body elements to form the roof bow. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20120080918 | SELF-LEVELING ARMREST ASSEMBLY - In one aspect, the subject embodiments are directed to a seat that includes a seat bottom and a seat back, wherein the seat back is pivotable with respect to the seat bottom about one or more pivots. A linkage assembly is employed that is coupled to each of the one or more pivots. The linkage assembly includes a linking component that has a first location mounted to the seat bottom and a second location mounted to the seat back. A cam is coupled to the seat back location, wherein a dowel is permanently affixed to the cam. An end distal from the cam, a pin extends perpendicularly from the dowel and is angled at between 20 and 70 degrees upward from a plane formed by an arm channel. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20110291060 | LOW PROFILE SCISSOR JACK - A scissor jack assembly may have a base member for resting the jack assembly against a supporting surface and a support bracket assembly. First and second lower arm members may each be of an open channel construction with a width extending between a pair of outer sidewalls. One end of each lower arm member may be connected to the base plate. First and second upper arm members may each be of an open channel construction having a width extending between a pair of outer sidewalls. One end of each outer one end may be connected to the support bracket assembly. First and second trunnions may connect the upper arms with the lower arms. Each of the trunnions may include a bore. A rotatable shaft member may extend into the bores of the first and second trunnions. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110132485 | TERMINATION VALVE EXTENSION - A discharge extension assembly includes a main tube having at least first and second ends. The discharge extension assembly further includes at least one extension tube configured to telescope from within the main tube. The main tube and the at least one extension tube may include a plurality of collars that are configured to limit overextension of the at least one extension tube from the main tube. A first bracket is configured to mount to the first end of the main tube. A hinge assembly is configured to pivot the main tube and the at least one extension tube. The hinge assembly may include a stop and a sleeve slidably engaged with a shaft. The stop, the sleeve, and the shaft may be configured to limit movement of the sleeve. A second bracket may be configured to mount to the second end of the main tube. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20100154927 | FLUID EXCHANGE MACHINE WITH GRAPHICAL DISPLAY - A fluid exchange machine for removing used transmission fluid from a vehicle's cooling system and replacing the used fluid with fresh fluid includes a fresh fluid tank, a used fluid tank, a pump for forcing fresh fluid from the fresh fluid tank to a vehicle's cooling system, a processor for controlling a fluid exchange operation, and a display coupled to said processor for graphically representing a status of the fluid exchange operation. The display can be an LCD display or other display capable of graphical representation of the conditions and status of the fluid exchange operation. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100140026 | TIRE CHOCK - A tire chock having an at least partially threaded rod; a first trunnion having an aperture therethrough that receives the rod; first and second locking members, one locking member being rotatably fixed relative to the rod, the other locking member being rotatably fixed relative to the first trunnion. A tire chock may alternatively have an at least partially threaded rod; an upper trunnion rotatably attached to the rod; a lower trunnion threadedly attached to the rod, the lower trunnion translating axially relative to the rod upon rotation of the rod relative to the lower trunnion; a pair of linkage arms, the pair of linkage arms forming an X-shape, each linkage arm being connected to the lower trunnion by a drive arm and being connected to the upper trunnion by a support arm, wherein, as the rod is rotated relative to the lower trunnion, the linkage arms expand or contract. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20090200824 | SLIDEOUT ROOM JACK SCREW ADJUSTOR - The present disclosure relates to a support system having a slideout room, a trailer frame assembly and a jack screw assembly to increase, decrease or level the vertical placement of the slideout room. The frame assembly has extendable support members connected to a plurality of jack screw assemblies with telescopic tubes to extend, decrease or level the vertical placement of the slideout room. The telescopic tubes have a mounting plate on one end that attaches to the slideout room and a mounting bracket on the other end that attaches to the extendable support members. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090134650 | SLIDEOUT ROOM SUPPORT AND LEVELING DEVICE - A slideout room leveling device for supporting and leveling a slideout room floor of a recreation vehicle. The device may have a base mounted to a threshold of the trailer frame and a support arm that has a friction reducing member mounted to the support arm. A spring member may be mounted on the base to assist in supporting and leveling the slideout room floor. The support arm of the slideout room supporting and leveling device may remain in continuous contact with the floor of a slideout room during extension and retraction in order to support and level the slideout room. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20080290689 | SLIDABLE ROOM SUPPORT SYSTEM - A slidable room assembly comprises a vehicle body having an opening formed in an exterior wall, and a reciprocable slideout unit or compartment disposed in the opening and slidable between a retracted position and an extended position. A cable support system supports the slidable room during movement of the slideout unit. Sliding movement of the slideout unit is controlled by a drive mechanism separate from the cable support system. | 11-27-2008 |
