  • Patent number: 10967777
    Abstract: A lift assist device for a slide-out room includes a base and a floor support having a fixed portion, a deflecting portion, and a biasing member disposed between the base and the deflecting portion. When the slide out room is in an extended position, the weight of the room deflects the deflecting portion, thereby compressing the biasing member. As the slide-out room is being retracted from the extended position, the biasing member decompresses, thereby facilitating lifting of the slide-out room.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 31, 2019
    Date of Patent: April 6, 2021
    Assignee: LIPPERT COMPONENTS, INC.

  • Patent number: 9115517
    Abstract: A hinged two-part doorstop wedge that can be folded into a generally flat or collapsed configuration, and which can be unfolded and deployed in an elevated configuration for placement on the ground near a door so as to stop the motion of the door. The doorstop includes pivotally coupled first and second hinge elements, wherein in the fully collapsed configuration the first hinge element and the second hinge element have generally coplanar upper and lower surfaces, and when in the elevated configuration the top side of the first hinge element is angled upwardly to engage the bottom rail of a door.
