Recreational vehicle service compartment sealing shroud
09994194 · 2018-06-12 ·

A sealing shroud is provided for blocking the port through a panel of the service compartment on an RV vehicle, or the like, through which the sewage outlet hose is connected to the external sewage line. This sealing shroud includes a pervious section preferably fabricated from a wire mesh which prevents rodents or other varmints from chewing an opening therein. The sealing shroud is carried by the external sewage line and blocks a rodent from entering into the RV through the space between the sewage line and the RV port.

Combustion engine electromagnetic energy disruptor

A combustion engine electromagnetic energy disruptor includes shaped disruptor carried in an enclosure, and configured to disrupt, distort, and/or agitate electromagnetic energy proximate a combustion engine and fuel system. The disruptor incorporates electromagnetically responsive constituents dispersed in a substantially water-free resin hardened above about Shore D 60 into a predetermined volume and density. The resin and constituents are combined to have a mass ratio of about 50% resin and 50% powdered constituents. A permittivity of the enclosure does not exceed about 3.5, and of the resin and constituents in combination substantially exceeds about 3.5. The resin includes a urethane resin that is mixed prior to curing into a substantially homogenous dispersion with the constituents. The constituents include one or more of piezoelectric, diamagnetic, paramagnetic, ferrimagnetic, and ferromagnetic materials. Such materials include one or more of powdered quartz, black tourmaline, magnetite, iron, iron oxide, zinc oxide, copper oxide, aluminum, and graphite.

IMAGING AND DISPLAY DEVICE FOR VEHICLE AND RECORDING MEDIUM

An imaging and display device for a vehicle includes: a display unit configured to display a captured image which is obtained through image capturing by an imaging unit that images a rear side of the vehicle; and a control unit configured to perform view angle switching control of switching an angle of view of the captured image displayed on the display unit to a wider angle than a current angle of view when a predetermined wide-angle condition is satisfied as a distance between an object on the rear side of the vehicle and the vehicle decreases and switching the angle of view to an original angle of view when a predetermined return condition for returning to the original angle of view is satisfied.

Vehicle resin part and vehicle resin part manufacturing method

To provide a vehicle resin part and a vehicle resin part manufacturing method with which raised portions can be formed using slanted slide molds even on opposing molded portions that have a narrow distance between them. In a rail cover, shelf-shaped portions that can be molded using a cavity and a core are formed on opposing side wall portions, and claw portions that can be molded using slanted slide molds are formed projecting from the shelf-shaped portions in the directions of the opposing side wall portions. Additionally, the claw portions are molded by moving, during demolding, the pair of slanted slide molds in the directions of the opposing side wall portions from a molding position and thereafter removing the pair of slanted slide molds in a forward direction.
