Abstract: A passenger van is equipped with a drive mechanism for power operation of a slideable side door. The drive mechanism has an endless flexible drive member that travels in a closed loop which includes travel through a center track that supports and guides a hinge and roller assembly that is attached to the rear of the side door. A clutch is mounted on the hinge and roller assembly to clamp onto the flexible drive member for power operation. The clutch is operated by an actuator that includes a solenoid and a linkage between the solenoid and a moveable plate of the clutch. An electromagnetic clutch may be used as an alternative.

Abstract: A hollow body member has a plurality of side opening pockets at the upper portion thereof to receive toilet articles such as toothbrushes. The inner ends of the pockets have openings into the interior of the body member providing exposure to sterilizing radiation from an uncoated portion of a light bulb supported within the housing. The light emitted from the coated portion serves as a night light. At the top of the holder is a shelf for supporting containers thereon in inverted relation whereby the containers are also sterilized by the bulb.
