Patent ID: 7014251

Claim:
A sealing member adapted to be mounted in between a cab and a canopy where the cab has a rear window with a perimeter sub-region and the canopy has a forward window providing a perimeter subregion where the perimeter sub-regions of the rear window and the forward window are substantially aligned, the sealing member comprising: an elongate axis and a first set of opposed elongated surfaces comprising a first surface and a second surface whereby the first and second surfaces are adapted to engage the perimeter sub-regions of the rear window and the forward window, the elongate member further having a second set of opposed surfaces comprising a third elongated surface and a fourth surface that are substantially opposed to one another and are adapted to simultaneously engage the perimeter sub-region of the rear window and the perimeter sub-region of the forward window, where a sealing body width is defined between the first and second surfaces that is a greater distance than a sealing body thickness that is defined as the distance between the third and fourth surfaces, whereas the elongate member is adapted to rotate substantially about its central elongate axis to provide engagement with the first and second opposed surfaces to the perimeter subregions of the rear window and the forward window or to provide engagement of the third and fourth opposed surfaces to the perimeter sub-regions of the rear window and the forward window where a combination of the engagement of the first and second opposed surfaces along a portion of the perimeter sub-region and the engagement of the third and fourth surfaces along another portion of the perimeter sub-region maintains a substantial seal between the cab and the canopy.
