Abstract: In one or more embodiments, a storage system is provided for use with a vehicle including a side wall and a rear wheel positioned below the side wall; the storage system includes a storage container receivable within an elongated space defined between inboard and outboard panels of the side wall, the storage container including front and rearward portions respectively positioned front and rear to the rearmost point of the rear wheel. The storage system may further include a leg portion for supporting the rearward portion of the storage container. The leg portion may be adjustable in length and may be attached to the elongated space or to the storage container.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a vapor canister couple to a fuel tank of a vehicle. A series of fluidically coupled, variable capacity bleed elements, externally coupled to a sidewall of the vapor canister, capture the bleed emissions resulting from desorption of fuel vapors from an adsorbent material inside the vapor canister. The series of bleed elements may be fluidically coupled through flow paths passing through the vapor canister wall, connecting through a first flow path to a chamber inside the vapor canister and connecting through a second flow path to a vent port of the vapor canister.

Abstract: The invention provides a structural reinforcement and method of use therefore. The structural reinforcement preferably includes a bracket and a reinforcement material attached to the bracket. The bracket may include flanges for assisting in attaching the reinforcement to a wall of an article of manufacture. Preferably, the reinforcement material is expandable to wet and bond to the wall of the article and is also curable to harden and strengthen the wall of the article.

Abstract: A revolving door has a plurality of leaves mounted for rotation about a common axis. To permit collapse of the door in an emergency, the leaves are mounted, at each end, by means of mechanisms that permit such collapse. There is provided a mechanism for mounting one end of a door leaf, the mechanism having a support plate for rotation about the central axis. First and second pivot means are mounted on the support plate, and corresponding first and second pivot devices are mounted on the door leaf. The pivot means and devices, e.g. corresponding projections and recesses, are such that, the door leaf can pivot about one pair of pivot device and means, while the other pair of pivot device and means separate from one another. Once rotation has commenced about one pair of pivot device and means, they are such that they cannot then be separated, thus securing the door.
