  • Patent number: 10406958
    Abstract: A combination closure and tabletop for a vehicle having a load-carrying bed and method includes a closure body pivotally and removably connected to a bed floor of the vehicle that defines a load bearing surface of a load-carrying bed on the vehicle. The closure body is connected to the bed floor when in a closure state for selectively providing and inhibiting access to a storage compartment disposed below the bed floor. The closure body is removable from the bed floor when in a tabletop state for use in a tabletop configuration. When in the closure state, the closure body is pivotable from the pivot closed position to a pivot open position. The pivot closed position is for inhibiting access into the storage compartment. The pivot open position is for providing access into the storage compartment. When in the tabletop state, the closure body is usable as a tabletop and access is provided into the storage compartment.

  • Patent number: 9162634
    Abstract: A molding fixing assembly for securing a roof molding in a roof groove includes a bracket fixedly secured in the roof groove and a separate clip mounted to the molding. The bracket includes a base and a pair of arms extending substantially perpendicularly from opposed longitudinal side edges of the base. At least one of the arms includes a first retaining member and a second retaining member having a configuration different than the first retaining member. The clip includes a body having a pair of longitudinal sidewalls and a pair of end walls. At least one of the sidewalls has a post projecting therefrom. To connect the clip to the bracket, the sidewalls of the clip are positioned between the pair of arms of the bracket. The first retaining member engages one of the sidewalls of the clip and the second retaining member engages the post.
