Abstract: An operator station for a lift truck or other vehicle including a scalloped arm rest providing a plurality of arm rest positions for operators of varying sizes. The arm rests are positioned approximate an operator control handle, such that operators can operate vehicle controls while resting their arms in a selected one of the scalloped arm rests.

Abstract: A boat comprising a folding internal frame and a flexible outer skin. When not in use, the boat folds in half to a compact flat shape beneficial for shipment, storage and transport. The integrated tubular frame/floor pan is hinged to “pop up” or collapse quickly without the need for separate tools. The outer skin stays on the boat even when it transitions to the folded configuration. Latch mechanisms hold the frame rigid in the open position.

Abstract: A miniature keyboard assembly for generating code signals representative of selected characters and functions. The assembly including at least one but preferably, two glide keys, each coupled to a depressible keybutton for controlling the movement of its respective keybutton. In one embodiment, each keybutton base carries an electrically conductive layer and is slidable on a membrane panel having thereon a plurality of signal code generating switches. The keybutton being movable along orthogonal axes in response to movement of the glide key. Each keybutton extends upwardly through a longitudinal slot opening in a lateral slide support member and then through a fitted opening in an indicator panel. The indicator panel also includes an indicia marker which underlies a transparent keyboard panel and is visible therethrough.
