Abstract: A motor vehicle fender has inner and outer sides joined to top and bottom covers to form a four sided, closed structure having a downward extending front portion, generally straight middle portion and a downwardly extending rear portion encircling the top portion of a wheel well of a motor vehicle. The top cover angles inward toward the vehicle and downward toward the ground so the top, outer edge of the fender protrudes to deflect vegetation from the top of the fender, and the outer side angles inward and downward so the top, outer edge protrudes to deflect vertically growing vegetation from parts of the outer side of the fender.

Abstract: An adjustable mounting device is provided comprising a base mount assembly including a first base mount and a second base mount pivotally coupled to each other, with the first base mount and the second base mount each being configured to be attachable to the vehicle. A light mount is pivotally coupled to the base mount assembly and is configured to be attachable to the light bar for mounting the light bar on the vehicle.

Abstract: An assembly and a method of opening a locked door from inside a container is provided. The door has an exterior surface and an interior surface, with a latch coupled to the interior surface. The door includes a lock assembly that has an outer door handle, and an inside release handle that can be rotated from inside the container, and separately from the outer door handle, to disengage the latch of the door to open the locked door.

Abstract: A latch assembly having a latch housing and handle that are substantially or near flush with the surrounding outer surface of the door in which they are mounted when the latch assembly is in its closed position. The latch assembly utilizes a locking cylinder as a push-button mechanism in order to release at least a portion of the handle, which then pivots to an extended position where it can be grasped and turned by an operator. A spindle and latching pawl are slidably connected to the handle and bound by a camming surface in the latch housing so that the spindle and latching pawl moves both axially and rotationally at the same time so that, upon closing, the pawl will cinch down on the frame to create a tight closure between the door and frame.

Abstract: Rotary latches which can be activated by paddle handles, push button locks and the other locks. The rotary latches have a strike and a catch pivotally mounted in a housing and having an actuator moveably mounted to the housing. Movement of the actuator will move the catch away from the strike and open the rotary latch. Several rotary latches can be operatively connected together by an actuator rod.
