Abstract: A running board assembly for attachment to a vehicle is provided. The running board assembly includes a running board and a mounting bracket, for mounting the running board. The running board includes an elongated support portion including a support wall portion, which has an inward wall portion and an outward wall portion. An outward shoulder portion is disposed on the outward wall portion. An inward shoulder portion is disposed on the inward wall portion. Multiple cap portions are connected to the outward shoulder portion and the inward shoulder portion of the support portion. The cap portions are spaced from each other along the support portion to define step pad receiving openings. A step pad is connected to the outward shoulder portion and the inward shoulder portion of the support portion. The step pad is disposed in the step pad receiving opening.

Abstract: An apparatus for positioning food components in a container that is moving along a conveyor. The apparatus has a paddle member and a link. The paddle member is movable between a first position within the container and a second position outside of the container. The paddle is also pivotable when moved between the first position and the second position. The paddle member is adapted to engage the food components and move the food components to a selected location in the container as the container moves along the conveyor. The link moves the paddle member between the first position and the second position and pivots the paddle member as the paddle member is moved between the first position and the second position.

Abstract: A sliding door suspension system and a sliding door assembly for supporting a heavy sliding door from a door frame includes a rail horizontally mounted to the door frame. The suspension system includes a roller assembly which rollingly engages the rail and supports the heavy door. The roller assembly includes an axle or shaft having a bearing surface. The axle has at least one threaded end for securing the roller assembly and for attaching the roller assembly to a door hanger from which the heavy door is suspended. The roller assembly further includes a roller with a concentric hollow bore for seating a bearing assembly or bushing through which the axle extends in supportive engagement with the bearing assembly. The rail has a convex arcuate upper roller guide surface. The roller has a concave arcuate roller guide engaging surface which conforms to and engages the upper surface of the rail. The roller assembly also includes a door height and alignment adjusting member which threadably engages the axle.
