Abstract: A structural member for a vehicle battery tray includes a base that forms a bottom of the vehicle battery tray, a stanchion extending from the base into the vehicle battery tray, and a rivet nut disposed in the base and extending into the stanchion, wherein the rivet nut is sealed to the base.

Abstract: A crossbar assembly for a motor vehicle having a detachable roof and a roll bar includes a stanchion having a first connection portion configured to connect in a first configuration the stanchion to the roof when the roof is attached to the roll bar, the stanchion having a second connection portion configured to connect in a second configuration to the roll bar when the roof is removed from the roll bar. A crossbar is connected to the stanchion.

Abstract: A stowable roof rack for a roof of a motor vehicle includes a first roof rail connected to the roof of the motor vehicle, the first roof rail having a first exterior side facing outwardly relative to the motor vehicle and a first interior side facing inwardly relative to the motor vehicle, a second roof rail connected to the roof of the motor vehicle spaced apart from substantially parallel the first roof rail, the second roof rail having a second exterior side facing outwardly relative to the motor vehicle and a second interior side facing inwardly relative to the motor vehicle, and a crossbar moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position, wherein when in the stowed position the crossbar is connected at a first end to the interior surface of the first roof rail and at a second end to the interior surface of the first roof rail, and wherein when in the deployed position the crossbar is connected at the first end to the interior surface of the first roof rail and at the second end to the interior

Abstract: A detachable lift gate hinge cover assembly includes a bracket fixed to a vehicle roof, the bracket including an attachment member having an integrally connected coupling portion. A plate assembly includes a panel having a retention member integrally connected to the panel. The plate assembly when rotated in a first rotation direction aligns the retention member with a clearance opening of the coupling portion allowing insertion of the retention member through the clearance opening to releasably engage a hook shaped end of the retention member with the coupling portion. The plate assembly when positioned in an installed position within a roof hinge pocket of the roof at least partially covers a lift gate hinge attachment area. The plate assembly when rotated in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction releases the hook shaped end from the coupling portion to release the plate assembly from the installed position.

Abstract: A dual flush volume pressurized flush device. A pressurized tank includes a tray for controllably retaining water during a flush event. The tray retains a certain volume of water when a reduced flush is activated, such that the entire volume of the tank is not flushed. In a full flush event, the activation causes substantially the entire volume of the tank to be flushed, including the volume of water inside the tray. A controllable water retention tray valve is positioned in the tray and provides a controllable release for the water in the tray.

Abstract: A multi-path discharge feed for a pressurized flush system of a water closet. The discharge feed fluidly connected to the pressurizable flush tank includes an inlet and a first outlet and a second outlet. Contents of the pressurizable flush tank are received via the inlet and distributed between a wash portion directed to the first outlet and a flush portion directed to the second outlet. The first outlet is fluidly connected to a plurality of wash jets. The second outlet is fluidly connected to a flush jet. The volume of fluid directed to the wash portion and the flush portion may be controlled by selecting the area of the first outlet and the area of second outlet, respectively.
