Abstract: A vehicle that includes a shelf assembly is provided. The shelf assembly includes a shelf panel, pivot mount, and an over-center extension/retraction assembly. The shelf panel is coupled to the vehicle and is movable between stowed and use positions. The pivot mount is coupled to the shelf panel and to a wall located on the vehicle. The shelf panel pivots with respect to the pivot mount between the stowed and use positions. The over-center extension/retraction assembly is coupled to the pivot mount and is engagable with the shelf panel to assist moving the shelf to at least the stowed position.

Abstract: A vehicle door assembly is provided. The door assembly is located on vehicle and includes at least first and second doors each movable between open and closed positions. A door slide assembly is coupled to the vehicle and comprises a traversing segments assembly. The traversing segments assembly includes first and second segments which are movable in first and second directions. The first door is coupled to the first segment and the second door is coupled to the second segment. Movement of the first door causes movement of the first segment in the first direction which causes movement of the second door in the second direction between open and closed positions.

Abstract: An apparatus for tensioning a pre-strung web onto a racket characterized by an elongated base supporting a pair of carriages for reciprocal, colinear movement. A plurality of stretcher bars are supported by the base between the carriages to stretch the web row-by-row away from a central axis. Links are provided to selectively couple the stretcher bars to the carriages.

Abstract: A method for stringing a racquet characterized by forming a linearly expansible pre-strung web having a plurality of rows of diamond shaped interstices and then stretching said web row-by-row along a linear axis of expansion by starting with the innermost rows of the web and proceeding symmetrically outwardly to the outermost rows of said web. As a final step, the linearly expanded web is laced to the head of a racquet. An apparatus for accomplishing the above method is characterized by an elongated base supporting a pair of carriages for reciprocal, colinear movement. A plurality of stretcher bars are supported by the base between the carriages to stretch the web row-by-row away from a central axis. Links are provided to selectively couple the stretcher bars to the carriages.
