A shelving unit adapted for attachment to a vertical surface has a plurality of square cross-section tubes that are to be attached vertically the surface. The tubes have slots arranged in horizontal pairs in vertically spaced relation along the length of the tubes.Fitted into the slots are L-shaped steel plates having first and second legs. The first legs are pivotally mounted within the tubes to swing through the slots. A stop is provided causing the second leg to extend perpendicularly to a front side of the square tubes. Sandwiched between the second legs of each adjacent pair of plates are shelf supports for rectangular shelves. The pivotal mount of the plate pairs allows a shelf to be shifted from a horizontal and vertical disposition. Spring latches attached to the tubes serve to releasably secure the shelves in their vertical disposition.

A control system comprises a central controller adapted to receive user input and commands, and in communication with a plurality of remote sensors adapted to detect various vehicular parameters: water pressure, water level, water flow rate, engine speed, pump speed, etc., and firefighter parameters: air tank level, air flow rate, body temperature, respiration rate, O2 saturation level, ambient temperature, and presence of hazardous chemicals and radiation. The system further comprises a plurality of remote actuators adapted to receive commands from the central controller and automatically carry out an operation in response to the received command. A wireless communication subsystem is adapted to receive and transmit sensed parameters from the plurality of remote sensors to the central controller, and transmit user input and commands from the central controller to the plurality of remote actuators. A central display screen is adapted to present sensed parameters and warnings.

A personnel platform for installation on a cargo truck comprises a mounting bracket securely fastened to a framing structure of the cargo truck beneath a personnel door, a platform deck mounted to a sliding mechanism securely fastened to the mounting bracket, wherein the platform deck is operable to be slidably configured in a stowed position beneath the cargo truck and a deployed position extending substantially horizontally beyond the cargo truck, and a latching mechanism operable to lock the platform deck in one of the stowed position and the deployed position. The platform further includes a guardrail accessory stowable under the platform deck, the guardrail accessory having first and second elongated members rotatably coupled together at one end. A free end of the first elongated member being adapted to secure to the platform deck to form a substantially vertical post, and a free end of the second elongated member being adapted to secure to the open personnel door to form a substantially horizontal guardrail.

A hydraulic damper includes a cylinder containing a hydraulic fluid and a piston affixed to a piston rod that extends out from one end of the cylinder through an end cap seal and that divides the cylinder into two chambers. The piston includes a port extending longitudinally through it where the port defines a valve seat. Inserted in the port is a spring-loaded valve member having a central bore extending longitudinally through it of a selected diameter that sets the rate of extension and return of the piston rod during use.
