    摘要: A vehicle pet ramp device is provided. The device can be stored in a cargo space of a vehicle wherein a ramp of the device can be deployed to allow a pet to walk into the trunk of the vehicle from a ground surface. A top surface of the device is comprised of a padding to allow the pet to comfortably sit or lay on the device once they have walked into the cargo area. When not in use, the ramp can be folded or telescoped/retracted into an interior space of the housing. The ramp may be repositionable via a hinge and may also be comprised of at least one side rail to prevent a pet from falling off the ramp during use.

    摘要: A guide-on post with a base, an arm, and at least one step. The base is attached to a boat trailer. The arm is hingedly coupled to the base and has an outer side that faces away from the boat trailer. The arm is configured to rotate between a guiding position and a boarding position. When the arm is in the guiding position, the arm is in a substantially vertical upward direction, and when the arm is in the boarding position, the arm is rotated between 5 degrees and 180 degrees from the guiding position. The at least one step is coupled to the arm and is moveable between a stored position and an extended position. When in the stored position, the step is positioned within a perimeter of the boat trailer. When in the extended position, the step extends away from the outer side of the arm.

    摘要: Systems and methods for producing vehicle components or components for use with vehicles or in other non-vehicle applications allow an end user to select and produce at a local job site, or optionally elsewhere as desired. The system and method can allow a manufacturer or designer to send a design for a component to a consumer for the consumer to produce. The consumer can then use one of a variety of methods, such as three dimensional printing or machining, to produce the component. The consumer can produce a component from a stock data file or can customize the component before production.
