Abstract: An improved RV lift mechanism according to the present invention. In one embodiment, the lift functions by way of an elongated, rotatably mounted acme screw. A bracket slides parallel to the acme screw, securing to an acme screw and an object to be lifted. The acme nut is threaded onto the acme screw and further held from rotation by the bracket. Thus, as the acme screw turns, it presses against the bracket, lifting or lowering both it and its payload.

Abstract: A slide-out mechanism is provided that adjusts the elevation of a slide-out room relative to the main body of a vehicle. In one preferred embodiment, the slide-out mechanisms includes a tube roller mounted near the edge of the floor to slide vertically. The top end of the tube roller contacts the floor of the slide-out room while the bottom of the tube roller rolls along an extending arm. The extending arm includes a groove which allows the tube roller to reduce its vertical position when the slide-out is fully extended, causing the proximal end of the slide-out to therefore reduce in height.
