Pump system for vehicles
A vehicle-mounted pump system is disclosed for use with a service vehicle. A chassis can be configured to be secured to the service vehicle, and a frame can be supported by the chassis. A plurality of pumps can be supported by the frame, with each of the pumps being configured to pump liquid for dispersal external to the service vehicle. A power source can be supported by at least one of the chassis and the frame. A power transmission system can be configured to transfer power from the power source to the plurality of pumps.
Vehicle
A vehicle shown herein is a side by side powersports vehicle having a utility bed recessed in the rear body portion below an upper surface, the utility bed forming a stepped portion relative to the rear body portion and having a maximum lateral width greater than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, and a minimum width less than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, whereby a spare wheel may be stored on the stepped portion of the utility bed. As shown herein, the utility bed is defined as a removable tub, which can be removed from the rear body portion. The utility bed has defined troughs in a floor thereof angled rearwardly wherein the utility bed has drains which drain away from any heat source of the vehicle. The seats of the vehicle allow longitudinal movement and tilt capability.
Mesh pocket for vehicle
A mesh pocket for a vehicle includes a net member, a plurality of hook clips provided on a front face of an interior material, and a fixing member fixing part of the net member to the interior material. In a state in which corner parts of the net member are latched on the plurality of hook clips, part of a lower side of the net member is fixed to the interior material by the fixing member. Accordingly, even when the net member is detached from the hook clip when not in use, due to part of the net member being fixed to the interior material there is no possibility that it will be lost and, moreover, since a shopping bag, etc. can be hung on the hook clip, from which the net member is detached, the convenience can be improved.

TRUCKS INCLUDING EXTERNALLY MOUNTED SPEAKER ENCLOSURES AND METHODS OF MOUNTING SPEAKER ENCLOSURES
A pickup truck includes a passenger cabin that includes a rear wall. A truck bed includes a front wall that faces the rear wall of the passenger cabin. A space is provided between the rear wall of the passenger cabin and the front wall of the truck bed. A speaker assembly includes a speaker enclosure mounted externally to the rear wall of the passenger cabin and located between the rear wall of the passenger cabin and the front wall of the truck bed. A speaker extends forward from the speaker enclosure and through an opening in the rear wall of the passenger cabin.
OPTICAL DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
An optical device includes a housing, a first optical subassembly, and a second optical subassembly. The housing includes first and second surfaces having respective first and second openings. The first optical subassembly includes a first lens and a first image sensor received in the first opening. The second optical subassembly is arranged at an angle with respect to a first optical axis, and includes a second lens and a second image sensor received in the second opening. The first and/or second opening is larger than the corresponding first or second image sensor such that a gap exists therebetween for the optical subassembly to be positioned with the corresponding optical axis at a given orientation before the optical subassemblies are attached to the housing.
RECEIVING SYSTEM FOR RECEIVING AT LEAST ONE GUIDED DEVICE, AND AN ELECTRIC MODULE, AS WELL AS A MOTOR VEHICLE
A receiving system for receiving at least one guided device, in particular an electric unit, in an instrument mount of a motor vehicle. The invention also relates to an electric module, which comprises a receiving system and a guided device, as well as a motor vehicle, which includes a receiving system or an electric module. The receiving system includes a receiving unit for spatially receiving the guided device in the receiving system, as well as a guide for implementing a guided slide-in movement of the guided device, in particular the electric unit, into the receiving unit. The guide is fixed in relation to the receiving unit and defines a nonlinear movement path, so that the guided device may be oriented in a first spatial orientation on an outside of the receiving system facing a driver of a motor vehicle.
CAMERA ARM OF A CAMERA-BASED MIRROR SUBSTITUTE SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
A camera arm of a camera system for a vehicle comprises a first structural element connecting the camera arm to the vehicle and a second structural element comprises at least one camera. A fastening for the at least one camera offers protection against external damaging influences on the fastening, the camera arm, and on all elements, devices, and modules arranged thereon. The camera arm comprises a variable-volume fluid vessel, connecting the first and the second structural element to one another. At least one restoring element connects the first and the second structural element to one another. The restoring element exerts a force on the second structural element in the direction of the first structural element. The force is varied as a result of the amount of fluid in the fluid vessel, such that the second structural element is moved relative to the first structural element by the varying force.
Rooftop Mount for Exercise Equipment
A rooftop mount device for connecting to a roof of a portable gym and for attaching exercise equipment is described. The portable gym is a portable container, such as a shipping container, having a top surface, or roof, to which the rooftop mount is attachable. The rooftop mount device includes connection members. The rooftop mount can also include one or more horizontal stabilization members and equipment attachment elements. The connection members are attached to a roof of the container. Exercise equipment is attached to the parts of the rooftop mount device. The rooftop mount provides proper height and stability for the bars, racks, stands, cages, rigs and riggings, and other exercise equipment that are attached to the container's roof so that the equipment does not move during use by an exerciser. Systems and kits are also described, which include a rooftop mount device, various exercise equipment, and a portable container.
