Windscreen installation apparatus and method

摘要

Apparatus 1 for use in handling windscreens for example for installation in a vehicle, includes a windscreen anchor assembly 2 comprising a windscreen anchor device 14 and a support arm 16 extending away from the windscreen anchor device. The support arm has a stop member 17 proximate an end of the arm, wherein the stop member or end stop is greater than the width of the arm. A mount assembly is provided for supporting the windscreen anchor assembly. The stop member may be constructed in a two-part or two-piece form (Fig.6-7), where the parts can be assembled end to end to form rigid fixed length arm. The apparatus may have a mount assembly including a mount structure 3 for engaging with the support arm such that the support arm can slide bodily in its longitudinal direction with respect to the mount structure.
