LIPPERT COMPONENTS, INC.

A stair assembly suited for a vehicle entrance includes a plurality of step treads, each of the step treads having a tread width, and a stringer to which the plurality of step treads are secured. The stringer is positioned within the tread width.

A stowable stair assembly with step treads connected between stair stringers includes stabilizing legs positioned within a width of the treads and behind the treads. A removable hinge assembly facilitates installation of the stair assembly as well as access to the stair assembly.

A hydro-furnace includes a water heater, a furnace component with a holding tank, a holding tank temperature sensor, a heater core, a pump, and a blower, and a control circuit coupled with the holding tank temperature sensor, the pump, and the blower. The blower drives air across the heater core in a heat exchange relationship, and the pump drives a fluid circuit between the water heater, the heater core, and the holding tank. The control circuit is configured to activate the pump and the water heater when a temperature in the holding tank drops below a predetermined threshold temperature.

Various embodiments of structures with one or more movable beds and bed lifts capable of moving one or more beds are described. In one embodiment, a structure includes a bed movable between a sleeping configuration, a stowed configuration, and a split configuration where one portion of the bed is lowered and another portion of the bed is raised. In another embodiment, a structure includes a bed movable between a sleeping configuration, a stowed configuration, a first seating configuration where the bed forms a seating unit facing one direction, and a second seating configuration where the seating unit faces another direction. In another embodiment, a structure includes a slide-out room movable between a retracted position and an extended position and a bed movable between a sleeping configuration and a stowed configuration. The bed is positioned in the area in the structure into which the slide-out room retracts.

An upper deck frame assembly for a trailer chassis includes a flushed floor section defining a first floor height, and a header section, with a header, forward of the flushed floor section and defining a second floor height above the first floor height. A towing assembly may be secured to the header. A reduced size header section increases usable floor space, and the towing assembly is securable to the header.

A fold assist bimini top includes a bimini frame with a front bow, a front support, a rear bow, and a rear support. The bimini frame is displaceable between an extended position and a retracted position. A canopy secured over the bimini frame is displaceable with the bimini frame between the extended position and the retracted position. A pair of assist straps are configured to facilitate displacement of the bimini frame from the extended position to the retracted position. One of the pair of assist straps is manually displaceable, and one of the assist straps is elastic and is secured at ends thereof to the bimini frame. The elastic assist strap biases the bimini frame toward the retracted position.

An axle suspension system is suited for a trailer including a trailer frame, an axle, and left and right wheels respectively connected on opposite ends of the axle. The axle suspension system includes a swing arm pivotably securable at one end to the trailer frame and connectable at an opposite end to the axle via a connector. The connector includes a bottom surface connected to the swing arm. A spring is connected at one end to the swing arm and is connectable at an opposite end to the trailer frame. A resilient pad may be secured between the bottom surface of the connector and the swing arm. In some arrangements, a track bar may be securable at one end to the axle and may be secured at an opposite end to the swing arm.

A storage step stowable in a pair of storage compartment channels includes a plurality of treads including a top tread, a pair of forward stringers pivotally connected to or adjacent forward ends of the treads, and a pair of rearward stringers pivotally connected to or adjacent rearward ends of the treads. A sliding assembly coupled with the storage step is slidable in the storage compartment channels.

A leveling jack includes a cylinder assembly with a leveling cylinder that is displaceable between a retracted position and an extended position. A footpad is coupled with the leveling cylinder for displacement with the leveling cylinder. A mounting bracket coupled with the cylinder assembly includes mounting legs having apertures therein, and a connecting bracket securable to a structure to be leveled is coupled with the mounting bracket via a connector through the apertures in the mounting bracket.

A framed shade cassette window enclosure includes a channel defining a shade cassette enclosure, an outer flange positioned outward of the channel, and a recessed area defining a concave gap between the outer flange and the channel. The recessed area is sized to fit in a window opening.
