Abstract: A nozzle comprising: a main body having a sidewall, a first end and, a second end, wherein the main body has a central channel extending from the first end to the second end and at least one aperture extending through the sidewall distal to the second end and a retention means is positioned within the channel positioned between the second end and the at least one aperture; a collar having a lip disposed at a first end and a securement means disposed at a second end adjustably attached to the main body, wherein a cavity is formed between the main body and the collar and in a first position the lip creates a tight seal with the main body; a blocker positioned within the channel of the main body, wherein the blocker freely rotating about a central axis of the channel; and a means of axially retaining the blocker within the channel.

Abstract: A spring-damper assembly includes a damper and an adjustable gas spring system coupled to the damper. The spring-damper assembly can be coupled to a vehicle as part of a suspension thereof. The adjustable gas spring system maintains the ride height of the vehicle while absorbing forces from changes in the terrain. The dampers control unwanted movement of the coil spring and dissipate forces from the suspension.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for providing rider control assemblies for adjusting and displaying pressure and height settings for vehicle air suspension devices, such as on adjustable air shocks and air struts, used in vehicles such as motorcycles. The assemblies can have a protruding eyelet portion that can be mounted to existing control panel clamps on motorcycle handlebars. The assemblies can have two part housings attached to one another by waterproof gaskets placed in opposite facing channels.

Abstract: Assemblies, systems, devices, and methods for disassembling an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) air shocks/air springs and replacing the inflatable bag/bladders and adding a crimp ring adapter to a top mount in order to reassemble and remanufacture the air shock/air spring with a new inflatable bag/bladder as an effective high quality and good reliability OEM replacement part. The existing air bladder is substantially cut out form the OEM air shocks/air springs, leaving a portion of the existing air bladder left inside of the remanufactured air shock/air spring.

Abstract: Assemblies, systems, devices, and methods for disassembling an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) air shock/air spring and reassembling and inexpensively remanufacturing the air shock/air spring with a novel seal pack in the top mount. The novel seal pack keeps compressed air from leaking from the air shock/air spring and allows the damper rod to move axially and rotationally and shift side to side in the top mount. The seal pack can include a seal pack with an outer groove, a seal pack X-ring for fitting inside of the seal pack, and an O-ring for fitting into the outer groove of the seal pack.

Abstract: Combination adjustable air suspension shocks with separate dampers, systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, for motorcycles. Air suspension systems, devices, apparatus, and methods for allowing motorcycle drivers to increase and decrease compressed air supplies in air suspension devices. Deflating interior air springs/airbags (bladders) inside the devices allows for springs and pistons on shock absorbers in the devices to expand outward separating lower front and rear frame portions which effectively lowers the motorcycle to the ground surface and for the driver to have a firmer ride. Inflating the air springs/airbags (bladders) allows for the springs and the pistons on the shock absorbers in the devices to retract into the devices so that the devices have a more shock absorbing effect giving the rider a smoother ride, which also raises the motorcycles above the ground surface.

Abstract: Single adjustable air suspension shocks with built-in damper device and coil assist, apparatus, system and method for motor vehicles, such as automobiles, vans, trucks, off the road vehicles, and the like.

Abstract: Adjustable air suspension shocks with rotatable damper assemblies, apparatus, systems and method for motor vehicles, such as automobiles, vans, trucks, off the road vehicles, motorcycles, the like. Deflating interior air springs/airbags (bladders) allows for pistons on shock absorbers to expand outward separating lower front and rear frame portions which effectively lowers the motor vehicle to the ground surface and for the driver to have a firmer ride. Inflating the airbags (bladders) allows for the pistons on the shock absorbers in the devices to retract so that devices have a more shock absorbing effect giving the driver and passenger(s) a smoother ride, which also raises the motor vehicles above the ground surface. A sleeve attached to the air shock allows for a damper assembly to rotate relative to the air shock so that it can be installed within mounting brackets where the axial mounting openings need not be perpendicular to one another.

Abstract: A headrest apparatus for engagement to an existing vehicle headrest and configurable to one of a plurality of configurations and orientations is disclosed. The headrest apparatus includes a back support member having first and second connectors configured to engage first and second side elements, respectively. The first and second side elements each include a side portion for providing a headrest area configured to provide a headrest area for an individual's head and a neck portion configured to engage the first and second side elements to either the first or second connector at different orientations.

Abstract: The system of this invention manages customer orders using vendor supplied software systems interfaced on a real-time basis to touch the data in each system on a real-time basis. In effect, there is horizontal communication between the various components of the system such as inventory, purchasing, order management and receipt, logistics and inventory to have continual data flow without using a vertical software interface. As a result, customer orders are received on a real-time basis using screens that are user friendly to promptly take orders, to verify customer data and to verify the ability to meet those orders. Transmission of documents within the system is minimized thereby making it more efficient, timely and cost efficient.

The front header has a substantially box-shaped cross-section. The pillar support member has an elongated member extending between a windshield opening and a door opening, a short first member at one end of the elongated member extending along the windshield opening, and a short second member at the end extending along the door opening. The first member includes a first edge adjoining an end of the front header. The side roof rail has a substantially box-shaped cross-section and adjoins a second edge of the pillar support second member. The roof rail outer front member is affixed to the pillar support member. The roof rail outer front member adjoins the end of the front header in a region of the first edge, adjoins the side roof rail in a region of the second edge, and extends along at least a portion of the elongated member of the pillar support member.
