Abstract: A method and apparatus for retaining accessories to a vehicle.

Abstract: An all terrain vehicle is disclosed having a frame and ground engaging members supporting the frame. A driver's seat is supported by the frame, and extends along a first longitudinal axis. A passenger's seat is supported by the frame and extends along a second longitudinal axis, where the first and second longitudinal axes are laterally spaced apart. The passenger seat may also be movable to a second location to allow for the vehicle to support a gurney, which extends in a front to back orientation.

Abstract: A portable powered winch is provided suitable for coupling to a vehicle. The winch is comprised of a frame which mounts the winch and a housing. The housing houses a battery and mounts a control panel thereto. The frame has a mount for receiving a mounting tube of a vehicle, and is disconnectable when not desired for mounting and for use portably. A dolly may be included for transporting the winch.

Abstract: A vehicle and a pull behind unit are disclosed. The pull behind unit may be attached to a hitch of the vehicle. The pull behind unit may include powered ground engaging members which may be powered by an engine of the vehicle or an engine of the pull behind unit.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an accessory retainer apparatus for a vehicle may include one or more of the following features: (a) a handle member, (b) a shaft pivotally coupled to the handle member at the proximal end, the handle member pivotally rotatable between an open and closed position to move the shaft in an axial direction, (c) a grommet located on the shaft at the distal end, (d) a fastener coupled to the shaft at the distal end, whereby the accessory retainer is adapted to retain an accessory to a mounting aperture located on the vehicle, (e) a spacer member located proximal of the grommet, (f) a second grommet located between the handle member and the spacer, and (g) a bracket member coupled at the proximal end of the shaft between the handle member and the spacer member.

Abstract: Polymer blends with low haze and increased modulus and impact strength are comprised of a styrene butadiene block (SBC) copolymer and at least 62.5 weight percent of a styrene methyl methacrylate copolymer (SMMA). The SBC comprises 30 to 40, preferably 38 weight percent, butadiene. In a first embodiment the SBC comprises at least one tapered block. In a second embodiment, the SBC comprises at least two modes; at least one tapered block where the styrene comprises less than 25 weight percent; first and second charges of styrene with a weight ratio of 1:2 to 2:1; a monoblock formed from the first charge of styrene in the block copolymer preceding the tapered blocks having a molecular weight of 25,000 to 65,000 grams per mole, and the block copolymer having a blocking force of less than 175 pounds. The SMMA contains at least 55 weight percent styrene and no more than 45 weight percent methyl methacrylate. The blends have a haze of less than about 2.

Abstract: An all terrain vehicle with a plurality of independent winches is provided. One winch may be mounted on the front of the all terrain vehicle. Another winch may be mounted at the rear of the all terrain vehicle. The winches are controlled independently of each other. For example, the front winch can be driven in a forward direction or a reverse direction independently of the rear winch, and the rear winch can be driven in a forward direction or a reverse direction independently of the front winch. Additionally, the front winch and the rear winch may be engaged to operate simultaneously.

Abstract: An improved refrigerator hinge assembly which provides for maintaining the proper adjusted position of a refrigerator door with respect to its associated cabinet. A factory setting of the refrigerator door can be accurately maintained with precision even after the hinges are removed for field installation of the refrigerator such as to pass a refrigerator through narrow doorways. A tap plate is located behind the cabinet cladding and has "wrapper" or hinge screw holes for clamping the position of the external hinge with hinge screws, while allowing for factory adjustment of the door position. After the door is factory adjusted in position, a supplemental mechanism is applied to fix the tap plate in the factory position independent of the hinge screws, such as an epoxy application or a separate and independent drill screw applied through the cabinet and engaging the tap plate.
