Abstract: A counter balance system for an overhead door assembly is provided. The overhead door assembly includes a door frame, an overhead door, and a door lifting assembly. The door lifting assembly includes an extension spring, a cable, and a pulley assembly. The pulley assembly guides the cable as the door is moved between a raised open position and a lowered closed position. A pulley of the pulley assembly is mounted so that an axis of rotation of the pulley remains perpendicular to a portion of the first cable extending between the pulley and a lower portion of the overhead door as the door is moved between the raised open position and the lowered closed position.

Abstract: A method of customizing a vehicle with decals. A first step involves securing a film of light emitting material containing a matrix of pixels to a body of a vehicle. A second step involves providing a controller having a memory in which is stored at least one graphic image. A third step involves providing a power source. A fourth step involves connecting the film to the controller and power source via a conductive circuit. A fifth step involves displaying the at least one graphic image stored in the memory of the controller on the film by selectively illuminating pixels in the matrix.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a reinforcement device suited for bracing a building aperture cover, such as a garage door; the device automatically engages when the aperture cover is lowered and disengages when the door is raised. The device employs at least one upper anchoring element, cooperating with the door header, and one lower anchoring element, cooperating with the floor structure. Both the upper and lower elements are securely attached to aperture cover so that they effectively divide and support the span of the aperture cover against positive and negative wind loads.
