A tonneau cover system, comprising: (a) one or more brackets secured to at least one of a pair of opposing sidewalls of a cargo box of a vehicle; (b) a foldable tonneau cover having a plurality of interconnected panels, at least one of the plurality of interconnected panels including: (1) one or more latch assemblies that engage the one or more brackets; and (2) an actuator assembly connected to each of the one or more latch assemblies by a cable, wherein actuation of the actuator assembly moves the cables that in turn release engagement of the one or more latch assemblies from the one or more brackets.

A rigid extendable storage unit comprises a front wall and a back wall positioned adjacent to the front wall in a folded state and configured to be deployed opposite the front wall, wherein the back wall has an opening configured to be covered. Side walls that are made of at least one section are provided and positioned adjacent to the front wall in a folded state and extended between the front wall and the back wall in a deployed state. A roof is positioned adjacent to the front wall in a folded state and extended to enclose a volume formed between the front wall, the back wall, and the side walls. In the folded state, the extendable storage unit occupies minimal area of the surface or the platform it is mounted on, and transforming the storage unit from folded state to deployed state and vice versa can be handled manually or automatically.

A tonneau cover assembly located over the cargo bed of a truck is provided. The tonneau cover assembly includes a base panel that extends over the cargo bed of the truck. The tonneau cover also includes at least one cover section that selectively shrouds the cargo bed and is located adjacent the base panel. The tonneau cover assembly includes either one or both a tie-down block assembly and/or a tether assembly.

An integral compact collapsible cap for a pickup truck having multiple interconnected folding panel members hinged together forming a cap on the truck bed. Side and end panels are hinged to and from a top member deployable from a flat storage position in the truck bed to a co-planar vertically spaced position over the truck bed. Manually operated secure and release latch arms on the deployed side panel ends registerably engage end pins on a cap mounting frame secured to the truck bed rails of the truck with a deployable rear and access panel having doors there within.

A release system of a tonneau cover, the release system comprising: (a) a spring latch, wherein the spring latch is located adjacent to or at least partially within an opening of a side rail of the tonneau cover to engage a drive system of the tonneau cover located within the side rail; and (b) a release latch connected to the spring latch by a release cable so that articulation of the release latch moves the spring latch between an engaged position, where the spring latch engages the drive system, and a disengaged position, where the spring latch is free of engagement with the drive system and the tonneau cover is free to move along the side rail independently of the drive system.

A tonneau cover comprising: (a) a plurality of panels; (b) one or more hinges between each panel of the plurality of panels so that the plurality of panels are rotatably connected together, wherein some or all of the one or more hinges include: (i) a plurality of expansion links that are movably interconnected together, some of the plurality of expansion links including: (1) one or more expansion projections; (2) one or more pockets that receive all or a portion of the one or more expansion projections from an adjacent one of the plurality of expansion links; and (3) one or more expansion stops that restricts movement of the one or more expansion projections from the adjacent one of plurality of the expansion links that extend within the one or more pockets; wherein the one or more hinges rotate so that the one or more hinges form of angle of about 90 degrees or more and about 225 degrees or less.

A method of operating a tonneau cover and a tailgate of a vehicle, including: transmitting one or more signals to a first control module to open or lower the tailgate; determining a position of the tonneau cover with the first control module or a second control module and transmitting by the first control module and/or the second control module one or more signals to a mechanism associated with the tonneau cover to open the tonneau cover if the tonneau cover is determined by the first control module and/or the second control module to be in a closed position; and then lowering the tailgate.

A system for a vehicle having an accessory positioned along the vehicle. The system may also include a sensor located along the vehicle in wireless communication with the accessory, wherein the sensor triggers activation of the accessory based on input from an external source.

Embodiments of golf club heads with energy storage characteristics are presented herein. In some embodiments, a golf club head comprises a body comprising a strikeface, a heel region, a toe region opposite the heel region, a sole, a crown, and an internal radius transition from the strikeface to at least one of the sole or the crown. In many embodiments, the internal radius transition region is not visible from an exterior of the golf club head and comprises a first tier, a second tier and a tier transition region between the first tier and the second tier.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body assembly coupled to the chassis, an electric energy system, and a door system. The body assembly defines a refuse compartment. The body assembly has a cover that at least partially encloses the refuse compartment such that an opening is defined in the body assembly to provide access to the refuse compartment. The door system is coupled to the cover. The door system includes a panel and an electric actuator powered by the electric energy system. The electric actuator is configured to selectively reposition the panel between a first position where the panel extends across the opening and a second position where the panel does not extend across the opening.
