Abstract: An attachment mechanism is configured to receive a connector member including a connector opening. The attachment mechanism includes a housing, an actuator mechanism, and a plate. The housing defines a cavity which selectively receives the connector member. The actuator mechanism includes a lock member movable between an extended position, in which a portion of the lock member extends into the cavity, and a retracted position. The plate is movably mounted in the cavity and movable between a first position, in which the plate prevents the lock member from moving to the extended position, and a second position, in which the plate allows the lock member to move to the extended position. When the connector member is received in the cavity, the plate is moved from the first position to the second position and the lock member is at least partially received by the connector opening.

Abstract: A hard top structure for a vehicle having a roll-bar cage is provided. In one exemplary embodiment, the hard top structure may include a frame adapted to overlay on and attach to the roll-bar cage. The frame may include an upper frame member that defines one or more upper frame openings. Further, the upper frame member may have a channel member that extends around at least a portion of each upper frame opening. The hard top structure may also include one or more upper frame panels with each corresponding to one of the upper frame openings. Each upper frame panel may have an insert member that extends around at least a portion of a perimeter of that panel. Also, each upper frame panel may be positioned in one of the upper frame openings so that the corresponding insert and channel members form a seal joint.
