20100066129GUTTER SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE STORAGE COMPARTMENT - A gutter system for a vehicle storage compartment includes a bed floor for supporting cargo in a vehicle and a storage compartment having an opening defined in the bed floor. A gutter at least partially surrounds the opening. The gutter includes a main gutter channel disposed adjacent and along an inward side of the opening and lateral gutter channels disposed adjacent and along lateral sides of the opening. At least one discharge channel fluidly connects to the main gutter channel and extends laterally outwardly therefrom to facilitate drainage from the main gutter channel.03-18-2010
20100308613VEHICLE BED EXTENDER ASSEMBLY - A bed extender assembly for a vehicle bed comprises at least one bed extender device having a longitudinal length greater than a length of the vehicle bed. The at least one bed extender device has a first end disposed in the vehicle bed and a second end spaced apart from the first end to define the longitudinal length. The second end is spaced rearwardly apart from a rearward end of the vehicle bed. A locking bar extends transversely across the vehicle bed adjacent the first end to lock the first end of the at least one bed extender device against the bed floor.12-09-2010
20110031776VEHICLE FLOOR ASSEMBLY WITH INSERT - An insert that can be used support a vehicle floor if a cross member fails either mechanically or through corrosion. The insert may also be used to protect a fastener used in a vehicle floor assembly.02-10-2011

20090259399Obstacle detection method and system - A system for detecting obstacles near a machine is disclosed. The system has a plurality of obstacle sensors located on the machine. The system also has a controller in communication with each of the plurality of obstacle sensors. The controller is configured to pair one-to-one each of the plurality of obstacle sensors to each of a plurality of non-overlapping confidence regions. Additionally, the controller is configured to scan with the plurality of obstacle sensors. The controller is also configured to receive from the plurality of obstacle sensors raw data regarding the scanning, and assemble the raw data into a map. Based on the map, the controller is configured to determine at least one characteristic of at least one obstacle.10-15-2009
20090259400Vehicle collision avoidance system - A collision avoidance system for a machine is disclosed. The collision avoidance system has a first obstacle detection system. The first obstacle detection system is configured to detect a first obstacle and generate a corresponding first signal. Additionally, the collision avoidance system has an operator interface. The operator interface has a display configured to communicate visual information to an operator. In addition, the collision avoidance system has an interface module configured to detect a status of the machine and generate a corresponding second signal. The collision avoidance system also has a controller. The controller is in communication with the first obstacle detection system, the operator interface, and the interface module. The controller is configured to control the display to indicate a dangerous obstacle detection to the operator, based on the first and second signals. Additionally, the controller is configured to control the display to provide a dangerous obstacle warning to the operator, based on the first and second signals.10-15-2009
