Abstract: A vehicle includes a vehicle body including a truck bed at least partially defining a cargo area, a vehicle interior with passenger seating, and a multi-component hard top assembly configured to selectively and removably couple to the vehicle body to provide an enclosed configuration at least partially enclosing the vehicle interior. The multi-component hard top assembly includes a rear window assembly configured to selectively and removably couple to the vehicle body.

Abstract: A modular, multi-component hard top assembly for a vehicle having an interior with front passenger seating, rear passenger seating, and a rear cargo area is provided. In one example implementation, the hard top assembly includes a base frame configured to removably couple to a body of the vehicle, and a plurality of removable roof panels selectively coupleable to the base frame to create a substantially contiguous roof over the vehicle interior. Each removable roof panel of the plurality of removable roof panels is separately removable from the base frame to provide an open air configuration at that specific location of the hard top assembly while enabling a user to detach, remove, and transport a smaller portion of the hard top assembly without assistance or specialized equipment.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a vehicle body including a truck bed at least partially defining a cargo area, a vehicle interior with front passenger seating and rear passenger seating, and a modular, multi-component hard top assembly. The hard top assembly is configured to selectively and removably couple interchangeably between (i) the vehicle body to provide an enclosed configuration at least partially enclosing the vehicle interior, and (ii) the truck bed to function as a truck bed storage cover to enclose the cargo area and provide a securable storage compartment. The multi-component hard top assembly is detachable from the vehicle body to provide an open air configuration for the vehicle interior.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for measuring the angular or linear displacement of an object. That displacement is transmitted to a movable conductive member, which, in response thereto, is moved to a position at which it electrically contacts one of a plurality of fixed contacts, thereby to complete an electrical circuit that includes a memory location in a read-only memory that contains digital data representing the amount of displacement that correlates to the fixed contact associated with that memory location. That digital data is transferred to an output device for display or additional data processing.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring and displaying the altitude of a kite in the air includes a device for measuring the length of the kite line that has been unwound from the reel and a device that produces a signal to a microprocessor that represents the angle the kite line makes with the horizontal. The height of the kite, which is computed from the measured line length and angle, is displayed.

Abstract: A fishing rod and reel is provided with a line having conductive portions spaced at regular axial intervals. A conductive sensor is mounted to the rod along the line's path. A counter is connected to the conductive sensors to count the number of conductive portions that pass by the sensors and complete a circuit therewith. Based on the number of counts and the length of the interval between the conductive portions, the overall length of line that is unwound from the real, that is, passes by the sensors, is calculated and displayed.

Abstract: The invention provides a film, a package and methods for employing the same. The film has a first layer of an elastomer and a second layer of a polyethylene such as a single site catalyst polyethylene. The film can have a third layer of a polyethylene such that the second layer is disposed between the first and third layers. The polyethylene of the third layer also can be single site catalyst polyethylene and, the elastomer of the first layer can be styrene butadiene copolymer. The film has an oxygen transmission rate of up to about 1000, such as 150-450 cc/100 in.sup.2 /24 hr., typically 260-400 cc/100 in.sup.2 /24 hr., with values of 300, 350-360, 400 cc/100 in.sup.2 /24 hr. and even higher exhibited by the film. The film is suitable for packages, for instance, packaging for cole slaw and leafy salad. The film also exhibits excellent clarity, durability, seal strength and machinability.
