  • Patent number: 11305681
    Abstract: A resilient seal for living quarters that is for sealing around a slide out room that has an aperture slidably receiving a slide out room. The resilient seal has a pair of attaching members extending along the inside and outside surfaces of the main living area wall at the aperture and includes a connecting member that extends between the attaching members and along the edge of the wall defining the aperture. A wiper seal extends from the connecting member for sealing against a wall of a slide out room. A bulb portion is integrally joined to a bridge wall that is bonded to L-shaped tabs on the attaching portion. The bridge wall may be severed from the L-shaped tabs to reveal a groove connector to receive a separate bulb portion connectable thereto. This facilitates replacement of the integral bulb portion.

  • Patent number: 10501026
    Abstract: A seal assembly is mounted to a floor portion of an RV with a slide out room. The slide out room has a wall and a floor that is separated from the floor of the RV. The seal assembly has a floor portion, a separate wear bar and a separate bulb seal. The floor portion has a mounting portion that receives the wear bar and an exterior leg that connects the bulb seal using a tongue and groove. Fasteners connect the wear bar and floor portion to the floor of the RV. The floor portion includes a wiper that extends upwardly from an inner lateral edge. A catch wall extends adjacent the wiper and cooperates with it to form a trough for drainage. The catch wall can receive a corner piece to direct drained water to the outside of the RV.
