Abstract: A cover apparatus for selectively covering the open top of a container may include a pair of tracks for mounting on the sides of the container, a cover movably mounted on the pair of tracks. The cover may include a pair of cover assemblies movable toward each other to produce a closed condition and movable away from each other to produce an open condition. Each of the cover assemblies may be positionable at an end of the container and have a portion movable toward a center of the open top. A cover movement assembly may be configured to move the cover assemblies on the tracks toward each other into the closed condition and away from each other into the open condition.

Abstract: A pair of molded plastic components are juxtaposed face to face to form a body, U-shaped in longitudinal cross section on a plane perpendicular to the juxtaposed faces and include flanges on the sides thereof. The external shape of the assembled body fits into a U-shaped space defined by the end of a wiper arm of the "shepherd's crook kind". The juxtaposed faces each have formed therein a transverse semi-cylindrical recess. When the sections are arranged face to face the recesses form a transverse bore to contain a grooved pin extending transversely from the side of a wiper blade harness. An internal circumferential projection in the recesses engages the groove in the pin; the flanges engage the side edges of the arm. A pair of resilient detents projecting outwardly from the web portion of the U-shaped body engage the web of the shepherd's crook arm.
