The front seat can be mounted to the vehicle body structure. The rear seat can be mounted to the vehicle body structure. The grab bar assembly can be mounted to the vehicle body structure. The grab bar assembly can include a grab bar, a spacer bar and a cover assembly. The grab bar can extend across the passenger area. The spacer bar can be attached to the grab bar, with a first gap formed between the spacer bar and the front seat, and a second gap formed between the spacer bar and the grab bar. The cover assembly can be attached to the spacer bar and positioned in the first gap.

Abstract: A frame and sunshade assembly for a vehicle having a passenger space configured in a side-by-side seating arrangement can include a plurality of frame members connected together to define an area above the passenger space when the frame members are mounted on the vehicle, a flexible panel extending along the area, and a plurality of anchors connected to the flexible panel. Each of the anchors can be mounted onto a respective one of the frame members. The anchors can include a first flexible strap, a second elastic strap, a pair of D-ring assemblies, and a fourth elastic strap.

Abstract: A vehicle assembly that can include a frame assembly, a door assembly, a striker assembly, a door latch assembly, a seat belt retractor assembly and a cover assembly. The striker assembly can be mounted on the frame assembly. The door latch assembly can be mounted on the door assembly. The door latch assembly can include a latch mechanism configured to releasably engage the striker assembly when the door assembly is in the closed position. The seat belt retractor assembly selectively wind and unwind a seat belt. The seat belt retractor assembly can be mounted on a first portion of the frame assembly. The seat belt retractor assembly can be spaced away from a second portion of the frame assembly by a gap. The cover assembly can be mounted on the frame assembly. The cover assembly can cover at least a portion of the gap and the striker assembly.

Abstract: A door assembly for a vehicle can include a front door assembly and a rear door assembly. A rear portion of the front door assembly can terminate at a rear edge. At least a portion of the rear edge can be spaced away from a side frame member in the longitudinal direction toward the first side frame member. A front portion of the rear door assembly can terminate at a front edge. The front edge can be adjacent to the rear edge of the front door. At least a portion of the front edge can be spaced away from the side frame member in the longitudinal direction toward the first side frame member such that at least a portion of the front edge of the rear door assembly is located between the rear edge of the front door assembly and the second side frame member.

Abstract: A door module for a vehicle door assembly that includes a net assembly can include an assembly bracket, a latch assembly and a handle. The assembly bracket can include a net attachment portion configured to secure at least a portion of the net assembly when the net assembly is attached to the door assembly, a handle mounting portion, and a latch mounting portion. The latch assembly can be configured to releasably engage the vehicle frame when the door closes the opening, and the latch assembly is connected to the latch mounting portion. The handle can be supported on the handle mounting portion. The handle mounting portion can pivotally support the handle relative to the assembly bracket. The handle can be coupled to the latch assembly such that the latch assembly releases engagement with the frame assembly when the handle pivots in a predetermined direction.

Abstract: A door barrier assembly for a vehicle can include a flexible barrier member such as a net, flexible plastic screen, or other barrier device located within an opening in the vehicle frame. The vehicle frame can include a front pillar member connected to a longitudinally extending roll cage member that extends in a longitudinal rearward direction of the vehicle from a top end of the front pillar member. The front pillar member can also be connected to a transverse roll cage member. The flexible barrier member can include an upper forward portion and a connector at the upper forward portion releasably attached to one of the transverse roll cage member and the longitudinally extending roll cage member at a location between the front pillar member and the longitudinally extending roll cage member.

Abstract: A barrier assembly for a vehicle can include a flexible panel member such as a net, flexible plastic screen, or other barrier device for extending across at least a portion of a vehicle opening defining a space such as a window or doorway. A strap may extend along at least a portion of a perimeter of the flexible panel. A stiffener may be joined to the strap for adding rigidity to the strap to allow grasping of the barrier at the strap for moving the barrier. The stiffener may have an enclosed shape, such as a substantial triangular shape and may be joined to an interior of the strap at a location containing a connector for connecting the barrier to the vehicle.

Abstract: A frame for a motor vehicle is disclosed. The frame includes a longitudinal side member, an A-pillar extending upward from the longitudinal side member and defining a front of the cockpit, a B-pillar extending upwardly and rearwardly from the longitudinal side member rearward of the A-pillar and defining a rear of the cockpit, a door positioned between the A-pillar and the B-pillar, and a hinge assembly attached to the B-pillar. The hinge assembly includes an upright hinge pipe that extends vertically through the door to reinforce the door, the upright hinge pipe having a top end and a bottom end, an upper hinge pipe pivotally attached to the top end of upright hinge pipe and fixedly attached to the B-pillar, and a lower pivot connecting the bottom end of the upright hinge pipe to the B-pillar.
