Abstract: Illustratively, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle that includes an entrance to an interior compartment. A step assembly is located adjacent the entrance of the vehicle and includes at least one step and at least one riser. The at least one riser is attached to and substantially perpendicular to the at least one step. The step assembly also includes an opening that allows access behind the step assembly. A lid is provided that includes a hinge to allow selective movement of the lid between open and closed positions with respect to the opening in the step assembly. A securement is attached to the underside surface of the lid to hold the lid to the step assembly. This securement, however, does not extend upward from the top surface of the lid.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cargo vehicle that includes a body with operator cabin and enclosed cargo area sections. The cargo area is located behind the operator cabin and includes at least one swing door hingedly attached to the body of the cargo area. The door is configured to swing open and closed via a hinge attached to both the swing door and to the body. When the swing door is open a longitudinal gap is formed between the body and the swing door. A longitudinally extending closeout panel is located over at least a portion of that longitudinal gap and coupled to both the swing door and body inside the cargo vehicle. The closeout panel is configured to fold to the interior of the cargo vehicle when the swing door is closed and expand when the swing door is opened.

Abstract: The angle of a hole in a surface with respect to that surface is measured by a ball mounted between a pair of plates, which ball can be located adjacent the hole. A pointer extends through the ball and projects on both sides. One end of the pointer extends into the hole and the other extends to within close proximity of a transparent dome. The angularity of the hole is then read from the pointer adjacent the dome, which pointer will indicate the angularity from indicia on the dome.
