摘要： A retractable awning which finds a particular use on recreational vehicles, mobile homes or the like having slide-out units is mounted on the side of the vehicle and has longitudinally extensible support arms that support a roll bar having the outer edge of an awning sheet secured thereto with the inner edge being secured to the side wall of the vehicle. The awning is movable between a retracted position adjacent to the side wall of the vehicle and an extended position with the support arms being biased toward their extended position with internal gas springs so that initial movement of the awning from the retracted to the extended position allows the support arms to automatically longitudinally extend providing a large arc for the roll bar which allows it to clear or extend above and beyond an extended slide-out unit.

摘要： A trailer break away safety mechanism which brings a trailer to a controlled stop after disengagement with a pulling vehicle. The mechanism consists of a cable which remains attached to the trailer after the trailer has disengaged from the pulling vehicle. As the trailer slows in relationship to the pulling vehicle, the cable actuates a braking mechanism on the trailer. Once the breaking mechanism has been fully actuated, the S-hook which attaches the cable to the pulling vehicle straightens, thereby completely releasing the trailer from the pulling vehicle. The cable is connected to a lever which pivots to actuate the braking system on the trailer. A catch spring and catch pin are provided to prevent the lever from inadvertently moving to its nonactuation position after the trailer has separated from the pulling vehicle. The use of the lever allows accurate and positive engagement of the trailer braking system which may be easily released by simply lifting a catch pin up and away from the actuated lever.

摘要： A clamp for securing a canopy to a telescoping rafter while simultaneously securing the rafter is provided by the present invention. A handle is pivotally mounted on a rafter arm used to support and extend a retractable awning canopy. When the handle is rotated to a first position, the clamp is disengaged and a rafter arm may be extended freely. When the handle is rotated to a second position a spring lock is engaged by a cam attached to the handle, such that the spring lock secures the position of a first member relative to a second member of the telescoping rafter. At least one end of the handle includes a pair of clamping jaws for securing a canopy to the handle. The clamping jaws are tightened or loosened by a thumb screw connecting the jaws. The thumb screw may also be used to secure the handle to the rafter when the handle is not in use.

摘要： A lockout device for selectively locking out the trailer brake actuator on a hitching device to allow for backing. The lockout device works on a hitching device having an inner housing connected to a pulling vehicle and an outer housing connected to a trailer. A brake actuator to activate the trailer brakes is connected between the inner housing and the outer housing. During towing, the actuator will activate the trailer brakes if the trailer approaches the pulling vehicle, as for example when the pulling vehicle slows and the trailer's inertia carries it towards the pulling vehicle. When the lockout device is in a lockout orientation, the lockout device prevents the inner housing from sliding rearward in the outer housing, thereby preventing the actuator from activating the trailer brakes. Upon an initial movement forward by the pulling vehicle, the lockout device will return to a neutral position so that the actuator is functional.

摘要翻译： 一种锁定装置，用于选择性地将挂车制动器致动器锁定在连接装置上以允许背衬。 锁定装置在具有连接到牵引车辆的内部壳体和连接到拖车的外部壳体的连接装置上工作。 用于启动拖车制动器的制动器致动器连接在内壳体和外壳体之间。 在牵引期间，如果拖车接近牵引车辆，执行器将启动拖车制动器，例如当牵引车辆减速并且拖车的惯性将其带向牵引车辆时。 当锁定装置处于锁定方向时，锁定装置防止内壳在外壳中向后滑动，从而防止致动器启动拖车制动。 当牵引车辆向前移动时，锁定装置将返回到中立位置，使致动器起作用。
