A lock device includes a base attached to a lid, a knob having a grip portion movably supported on a front side of the base and an arm portion projecting rearward with respect to the grip portion, a slider slidably supported in a rear part of the base so as to move slidingly by being pushed by the arm portion in response to a movement of the knob, a first rod and a second rod slidably supported by a part of the base located in front of the slider in a vertically arranged manner so as to be engaged by and disengaged from a pair of corresponding engaging holes, and a power transmission mechanism provided between the slider and the first rod and the second rod so that the first rod and the second rod are slidingly moved in response to a movement of the slider.

A rear slider window assembly for a vehicle includes a movable window panel that is movable along upper and lower rails of a fixed window panel. The lower rail includes a water drainage element having (i) a hole established through the lower rail and (ii) a drainage receiving conduit attached at the fixed window panel beneath the hole of the lower rail and spaced from the lower rail. The drainage receiving conduit includes a receiving portion disposed below the opening to receive water from the opening and a guiding portion to guide received water toward an exit of the drainage receiving conduit. The drainage receiving conduit provides a passageway for water to flow from the lower rail, through the hole of the lower rail, and into the drainage receiving conduit, which drains the water exterior the rear slider window assembly.

According to some embodiments, a boxcar door operating system comprises a rotating plate, a first lock bar, and a second lock bar. The rotating plate comprises a first lock bar engagement for engaging and disengaging the first lock bar and a second lock bar engagement for engaging and disengaging the second lock bar. An angular position of the first lock bar engagement with respect to a center of rotation of the rotating plate is different than an angular position of the second lock bar engagement with respect to the center of rotation of the rotating plate such that rotation of the rotating plate engages or disengages the first lock bar at a different time than the second lock bar.

A storage box includes a door that is coupled to the base. A pivot pin is coupled to the door and is operable between an engaged position, wherein the pivot pin is rotatably engaged with the base, and a disengaged position. The pivot pin is configured to move door-inboard due to contact with the base as the pivot pin moves from the disengaged position to the engaged position.

A laundry treatment apparatus includes a drawer. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a cabinet that has an entrance opening and that is configured to receive the drawer through the entrance opening. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a drum that is located inside the drawer and that is configured to receive laundry. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a drum drive unit that is located inside the drawer and that is configured to rotate the drum. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a fastening mechanism that is configured to reciprocate in a first direction that is either up and down or left and right with respect to a front of the drawer. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a transfer member that is configured to reciprocate in a second direction that is either up and down or left and right with respect to the front of the drawer.

A rear slider window assembly for a vehicle includes a movable window panel that is movable along channels of a fixed window panel via guide pins. A first guide pin moves along a first channel, which as a slot established therealong and therethrough. An electrical connector electrically connects electrical terminals at the fixed window panel to electrical terminals at the movable window panel, and includes a pin follower that extends through the slot of the first channel to electrically connect to a flexible cable connected to terminals at the fixed window panel and to electrical terminals at the movable window panel. The lower rail may include a water drainage element including (i) a hole established through the lower rail and (ii) a drainage receiving conduit attached at the fixed window panel beneath the hole of the lower rail and spaced from the lower rail.

In one form, a multipoint locking assembly included a first latch device, a second latch device, and a mortise assembly coupled to the first and second latch devices. The mortise assembly may comprise a first transmission coupled to the first latch device via a first flexible member, a second transmission coupled to the second latch device via a second flexible member, and an actuation assembly operable to actuate the first and second transmissions. At least one of the transmissions comprises a slack removal device operable to remove slack in the flexible member to which it is coupled, thereby ensuring proper transmission of pulling forces between the transmission and the latch device.

A lock device includes lock portions, a pair of rods, a base member, a rotary member, and a manipulation member. The rotary member has a rod link portion coupled with the rods and transmit rotational power of the rotary member to the rods and a guide wall located inside the rod link portion in the rotary member and guides the rods. The guide wall includes arc walls or a cylindrical wall whose axis coincides with the rotation center of the rotary member. When viewed from a direction perpendicular to a bottom surface of the base member, the erection wall and the guide wall are opposed to each other with a gap. Coming-off-preventive structures for preventing the rod from coming off when the rod is inserted in the gap and coupled with the rod link portion is provided between the rod and the erection wall.

A fenestration assembly includes a frame assembly, a movable sash assembly and a lock assembly. The lock assembly includes a first lock and a second side lock. The first lock operatively locks and unlocks the moveable sash to the frame assembly in a first direction only when the movable sash is in a fully closed position. The first side lock operatively locks and unlocks the movable sash in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction both when the movable sash is in the fully closed position and a partially open position.

A laundry treatment apparatus includes a drawer. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a cabinet that has an entrance opening and that is configured to receive the drawer through the entrance opening. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a drum that is located inside the drawer and that is configured to receive laundry. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a drum drive unit that is located inside the drawer and that is configured to rotate the drum. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a fastening mechanism that is configured to reciprocate in a first direction that is either up and down or left and right with respect to a front of the drawer. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes a transfer member that is configured to reciprocate in a second direction that is either up and down or left and right with respect to the front of the drawer.
