Abstract: A fixture for selectably supporting a number of dissimilar workpieces in a substantially vertical orientation. The fixture includes a frame with one or more rotatable and vertically-oriented workpiece tooling assemblies. Each workpiece tooling assembly has multiple faces to which is mounted workpiece support tooling. The workpiece support tooling may be designed to support dissimilar workpieces, such that a single fixture may support any of a given number of workpieces by simply rotating the workpiece tooling assembly or assemblies until the corresponding support tooling is properly positioned. A locking assembly, such as a cam-locking assembly, may be provided to releasably secure each workpiece tooling assembly in the various support orientations that coincide with each of its faces.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a decking system including a receiver and deck plank, wherein the plank removeably connects to receiver for installation. For example, the receiver may provide a snap lock function that secures and automatically spaces the deck planks on the receiver, which is fastened to a deck joist. In addition, the system is designed to conceal fasteners used to attach the system to the deck joist.

Abstract: An adjustable garage door jamb trim system includes: an interior door jamb trim; and an exterior door jamb trim, wherein the interior door jamb trim and exterior door jamb trim form an adjustable mating configuration that seal the interface between the interior door jamb trim and the exterior door jamb trim when the interior door jamb trim and exterior door jamb trim are secured to a door jamb having a width between a first width and a second width.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a garage door stop and seal system that allows for expansion and contraction, enables replacement of the seal, and provides hidden, or concealed, fasteners. The system includes a door stop that removeably snaps into a receiver, wherein the door stop conceals the fasteners used to connect the receiver to a door jamb. In addition, the door stop includes a receiving space for a replaceable seal.

Abstract: A system for configuring landing supports of a load to land on uneven terrain includes a terrain sensor configured to detect a terrain characteristic of the uneven terrain. The system further includes landing supports configured to support the load upon landing. The system also includes a support control device operatively coupled to the landing supports, and a landing support control computer that is operatively coupled to the terrain sensor, landing supports, and support control device. The landing support control computer may determine if landing on the uneven terrain is allowable, based on the terrain characteristic and a load characteristic of the load. Upon determining that landing on the uneven terrain is allowable, the support control device configures the landing supports for landing on the uneven terrain.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a leaf guard system of interlocking corrugated leaf guards, wherein the corrugated section of the leaf guard provides an air space between a top surface of the leaf guard and any leaves that may come to rest on it. The space created by the corrugated structure helps dry the leaves quickly thus allowing the leaves to blow off the guard quickly, thereby reducing the adhesion of a wet leaves to a flat surface. The leaf guards include tapered drain openings within the corrugated section of the leaf guard that decrease the possibility of water running over the leaf guard and thus not into the gutter.

Abstract: A snap lock soffit system includes: a receiver rail including; a receiver rail flange; an end fastening tab located at one end of the receiver rail; and a plurality of snap lock receiver tabs depending from the receiver rail, the snap lock receiver tabs being spaced along the length of the receiver rail flange; and a soffit panel including: a plurality of retainer grooves each adapted to receive a corresponding snap lock receiver tab in a press fit locking configuration to secure the soffit panel to the receiver rail, the retainer grooves spaced along the length of the soffit panel; a fastening edge located at a first end along the length of the soffit panel, where in the fastening edge is aligned with the plane of the end fastening tab of the receiver rail when the soffit panel is secured to the receiver rail; and a soffit extension.
