Patent number: 11752847Abstract: A door rail surround assembly incorporating an anti-rotation feature added to a door rail clamp of the assembly. The anti-rotation feature is a net fit cross vehicle with a hole in the vehicle sport bar thereby eliminating any free movement of the door rail clamp assembly. A second clamp is rotatable for also receiving a fastener of the door rail clamp. A clamp load is applied to the vehicle when the fastener is inserted and torqued to its predetermined value. This clamping load prevents any free movement in the door rail clamp assembly when the door seal load is applied when the vehicle door is closed.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Bestop, Inc.Inventors: Stephen J. Lewis, David A. Smith, Duane C. Junkin, Jonathon G. Moore
