Retractable cover for a boat trailer
A retractable trailer cover adapted for mounting to an existing boat trailer and a method for retrofitting the trailer cover to the boat trailer. The trailer cover includes multiple ribs extending from one side to the other, a flexible cover material, two elongated tracks, and multiple wheels received within the tracks. The ribs are affixed to the wheels so as to be slidably mounted to the tracks. Mounting brackets can be spaced along each of the trailer cover sides, and the tracks can be affixed to the mounting brackets. To mount the trailer cover to the boat trailer, the mounting brackets can be attached to a frame of the boat trailer. The trailer cover can selectively be expanded and retracted to cover and uncover an associated boat and boat trailer and may be used with new or used trailers.
GROUND MILLING MACHINE
A ground milling machine comprising a machine frame, a driver's cab, a drive motor, movement means driven by the drive motor and a milling unit for milling up ground material, wherein the driver's cab has a protection roof and a front window device through which an operator located in the driver's cab can look forward in a forward direction of the ground milling machine.
Assembly and method for moving a cover
An assembly for moving a vehicle roof cover may have a mechanical component coupled to the cover; a carriage guided in a guide rail; and a deployment element which is extended in an elongate manner along a longitudinal axis. The mechanical component may be coupled to the deployment element at a first end of said deployment element, to transmit a movement of the carriage along a longitudinal direction in sections to the mechanical component. A locking pin may be arranged at a second end of the deployment element; the locking pin can be rotated about the longitudinal axis of the deployment element, movable between a first state and a second state, wherein the deployment element is locked in the first state preventing movement along the longitudinal direction relative to the carriage, and is locked in the second state preventing movement along the longitudinal direction relative to the guide rail.
ROOF DEVICE FOR VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
A roof device for a vehicle includes: a plurality of plate members and a frame coupled to a vehicle body and configured to support the plurality of plate member, where at least a portion of the frame is configured to rotate around its edge, and at least one of the plurality of plate members is configured to slide along an inner edge of the frame.
VEHICLE SUNROOF COMPRISING ENERGIZED SUNROOF GLASS, AND VEHICLE
The present disclosure relates to a vehicle sunroof comprising an energized sunroof glass and to a vehicle. The energized sunroof glass comprises a rear glass and a front glass being slidable relative to the rear glass, wherein one of the rear glass and the front glass is electrically connected to a main wire harness of the sunroof, and wherein the vehicle sunroof further comprises an intermediate electrical connection structure configured to electrically connect the front glass to the rear glass when the front glass slides relative to the rear glass to a predetermined position. The vehicle sunroof saves the number of wire harnesses, has a simple structure and high integration, and is easy to control.
Method of mounting a roof panel assembly
A method of mounting a roof panel assembly to a vehicle having a roof opening in its fixed roof includes: mounting a frame of the roof panel assembly to the fixed roof from below with an operating mechanism and a ring frame in a position corresponding to a closed position of the movable panel, providing an amount of paste-like adhering material onto the ring frame distributed around the circumference thereof, positioning the movable panel onto the ring frame from above with the adhering material interpositioned and compressing the adhering material until a correct position with respect to the vehicle roof is reached, and keeping the movable panel in this position until the adhering material is sufficiently hardened to maintain the panel in its position.
Guide assembly for an open-roof system and a method for maintenance of the guide assembly
In a guide assembly for an open-roof system of a vehicle, a closure member selectively covers or at least partly uncovers an opening in a vehicle roof. The assembly comprises a guide extending in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle; a mounting element for mounting the closure member; a first support mechanism operatively coupled to the mounting element, the first support mechanism slidably supporting the mounting element in the guide; and a second support mechanism coupled to the guide and comprising a support element slidably supporting the mounting element, the second support mechanism being configured for moving the mounting element to a tilted position, a tilt direction being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The assembly is provided with a release mechanism for releasing the mounting element from at least one of the first support mechanism and the second support mechanism and for remounting the mounting element.
Two-zone adjustable sunroof shade
A dual zone shade assembly for a vehicle sunroof, moonroof, or panoramic roof, includes a central sliding shade guide and a pair of sliding shade panels all configured for sliding movement independently of one another. A latch assembly is provided, configured for independently engaging or releasing each of the pair of sliding shade panels and/or the central sliding shade guide.

Pickup cab mount pack
A cover for a truck bed that can be horizontally traversed between expanded and collapsed positions is shown. Since the cover is horizontally traversed, the person manipulating the cover need not lift the cover vertically in order to reconfigure the cover between the expanded and collapsed positions. Women and elderly people who are generally not as strong as men can manipulate the cover.
