  • Patent number: 6905234
    Abstract: A mounting assembly for adjustably supporting a turn signal from a motorcycle handlebar. The mounting assembly includes an L-shaped one-piece mounting bracket having a mounting end and a supporting end. The mounting end is coupled to the handlebar and the supporting end is spaced from the handlebar and defines a supporting bore. The supporting bore includes a reduced portion that defines a first engagement surface and a support shaft is received by the supporting bore and includes an externally threaded portion that supports the turn signal, and frusto-spherical portion that engages the first engagement surface. A set screw is received by the supporting bore and defines a second engagement surface that can be tightened against the frusto-spherical portion opposite the first engagement surface to clamp the second portion and to hold the turn signal substantially fixed.

  • Patent number: 6053626
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) directional light bar assembly for use on a motorcycle includes a substantially rigid light bar having opposite ends. Apertures are defined generally adjacent each of the opposite ends by a rear-facing surface of the light bar. A lens is sized to fit at least partially within each aperture such that a surface of each lens is substantially flush with the rear-facing surface of the light bar. An LED pod including a plurality of LEDs is disposed adjacent each lens. Each LED includes a selected number of LED running lights wired to emit light during operation of the motorcycle, and a selected number of LED brake lights wired to emit light during operation of the motorcycle only when a motorcycle brake is applied. A retention plate or member is interconnected to the light bar generally adjacent each opposite end, and at least partially captures each LED pod and lens between the retention member and the light bar.

  • Patent number: 5271183
    Abstract: A safety barrier assembly is disclosed to provide a movable barrier for an access passageway or doorway. The assembly includes a pair of upright support members and vertically travelling barrier means with at least two horizontally disposed elongate segments being selectively moveable between an operative passage blocking mode and inoperative non-blocking mode. Drive means are provided for moving the segments and lost motion means allow for positioning the segments a predetermined first distance apart when in the operative mode while positioning the segments close together when in the inoperative mode. Stop means may be provided for engaging one of the elongate members when in the operative mode.

  • Patent number: 5141044
    Abstract: A roll-up door in which the bottom bar is attached to the flexible door curtain has a transverse opening at an end adjacent to a jamb of the frame of the door. A breakaway shaft travels in a track in the jamb and has one end that normally seats in the transverse opening and provides a link between the bottom bar and the jamb. The other end of the shaft is restrained so that the shaft is held in a generally horizontal attitude. The opening in the bar and the breakaway shaft have cooperating means to normally retain the shaft in the opening but which are releasable upon a force striking the curtain or bottom bar. The breakaway shaft will separate from the bar upon impact thereby freeing the bar from engagement withthe jamb and preventing damage. The breakaway shaft may thereafter be reinserted into the opening in the bar to reconnect the bottom bar to the track and permit continued operation of the door.
