Abstract: A vehicle tilt-out window with a resilient seal insert includes an annular frame which is bonded to the vehicle window opening. The frame includes a resilient double lip seal which is molded into a recess formed in the frame and the lip seal cooperates with a glass panel mounted upon the frame by homogeneous hinge tabs extending from the frame permitting the glass panel to be tilted relative to the frame for ventilation purposes and an articulated pivoting latch mounted to a homogeneous latch base locks the glass panel against the lip seal.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine fitting containing a thermostatically controlled valve regulating the flow therethrough is formed by two parts interconnectable by relative rotation through a bayonet type connection. The bayonet connection utilizes two stages wherein the first stage maintains the parts connected but a bypass passage defined between the parts permits the flow of coolant through the fitting around the valve to initially permit the engine coolant system to be filled. After the coolant system is filled, the fitting parts are rotated to a final closed position sealing the bypass passage permitting the thermostatic valve to control flow through the fitting during normal engine operation. The fitting parts remain sealed to the atmosphere during both stages of interconnection.
Abstract: The invention pertains to a guide for roller valve lifters for internal combustion engines which prevents rotation of the valve lifters. The guide is molded of a synthetic polymeric material to define sockets receiving the ends of the valve lifters having flats defined thereon. The sockets of the guide are partially defined by cantilever supported fingers engaging the valve lifter flats, preferably with zero clearance, whereby the guide prevents rotation of the valve lifter about its axis.
