Abstract: A vehicle shield device is provided for mounting on a front of a vehicle. The vehicle shield device has a hood protector portion and a fender protector portion for protecting portions of the hood and the fender from contact with airflow. The vehicle shield further includes an airflow deflector portion extending from a back edge of the hood protector portion for deflecting airflow away from a windshield of the vehicle. The hood protector portion, the fender protector portions, and the airflow deflector portion cooperate to form a continuous airflow engaging surface extending across a portion of the front of a vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus for use in cooperation with a basin, such as a basin of a hopper sink, that protects an operator from splashing fluids and particulates. The apparatus includes a protective shield, structure for mounting the shield to the basin, and structure for attaching the shield to the basin mounting structure. The attaching structure includes a resilient material which serves to bias the shield outwardly toward the operator, when pressed inward by the operator, allowing the operator to work in the basin with minimal constraints.

Abstract: A closed loop function selector valve which directs high pressure hydraulic fluid to any one of several hydraulic related devices wherein the low pressure drains or returns of all of the devices are directed back to the valve. The valve comprises a hollow valve body having a cylindrical or arcuate inside surface wherein function selector ports are located. A valve drain output port is also located within the valve body. A selector rotor is moveably seated within the valve body having a line pressurized chamber therein which is in flow communication with the pressurized hydraulic line pressure directed into the valve. A chamber exit port is located in the body portion of the selector rotor arranged to be sealably alignable with one of the function selector ports for directing the hydraulic line pressure to any one of the various hydraulic devices connected to a functional selector port. The valve drain output port is always in flow communication with the remaining function selector ports.

Abstract: A wind deflector for boosting debris over an automotive windshield is pivotally mounted at the front edge of an automotive hood. The rotational position of the deflector may be adjusted between an open or erect position and a closed position where the deflector is collapsed against the hood of the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle body having a roof, depending sidewalls, a rear opening and a door for closing the opening wherein the door is pivotally and slidably mounted to the vehicle body by a slide mounted door hinge assembly. The assembly includes an elongated guide track affixed to the vehicle body extending perpendicularly from the opening and a hinge with a sliding leaf slidably connected to the guide track and a door leaf affixed to the door adjacent the track.
