Abstract: A vehicle rail system has a frame mountable to a vehicle, the frame having a plurality of support legs, the support legs interconnected via support beams. One or more fixed rails are mountable to the support frame, each fixed rail comprising a plurality of bearings thereon and configured to receive a sliding rail, the sliding rail having a plurality of grooves for receiving the bearings of the fixed rail so as to be slidable thereon. The bearings are located along regular intervals of the fixed rails on each non-mounted side. The sliding rail is then able to slide along the bearings of the fixed rail, extending to the exterior of the frame mounted in the vehicle.

Abstract: A roof-top rail system has a fixed frame mountable to the roof of a vehicle and a moveable frame mounted to the fixed frame. Bearings attached to the frames may engage channels formed in rails of the other frame in a manner such that as the moveable frame slides backward relative to the fixed frame, the moveable frame extends from the back side of the fixed frame. Simultaneously, a back end of the moveable frame rotates down as it extends from the fixed frame to improve access to cargo securing features of the moveable frame.

Abstract: A sample processing module includes a PCR assembly including at least one PCR reaction vial. A sample assembly is configured to hold a fluid sample therein, said sample assembly being attachable to said PCR assembly so as to form a closed system. A delivery channel is formed in said PCR assembly, said delivery channel being in fluidic communication with said PCR reaction vial and with said sample assembly. A pressurization device, said pressurization device being configured to increase a pressure of said fluid sample in said sample assembly and direct at least a portion said fluid sample through said delivery channel to said PCR reaction vial. A chemically inert magnetically responsive bead is disposed within the PCR reaction vial. A system is provided for oscillating for altering a position of the magnetically responsive bead within the PCR reaction vial.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the mixing of a solution and reagents for various reactions and/or testing having a closed cartridge reaction well, a magnetically responsive bead within the well having a chemically inert coating. A heat source then heats the contents to a target temperature while oscillating magnetic fields move the bead within the well in order to mix the contents and make the contents of the reaction well homogeneous.
