Abstract: A sun protection installation has horizontal lamellae (12) which are gathered together to a packet (14) in the retracted state and in the extended state, hang at certain distances on carrier elements (16) on both longitudinal sides of the lamellae. The angular position of the lamellae is determined by the position of the carrier elements on one longitudinal side in relation the carrier elements on the other longitudinal side. The lamellae lie gathered together in the retracted state below the surface to be shaded. Above the lamellae is provided a combined elevating and turning rail (18) on which, on one hand, elevator elements (28) are fastened that allow up and down travel of the elevating and turning rail, and on the other hand, the carrier elements are fastened. Between the rail and the elevator elements is provided a positioning element with which the inclination of the elevator elements can be adjusted.

Abstract: An apparatus for retaining a cartridge in a removable media disk drive during drive operation is disclosed. The apparatus has a protuberance at a distal end of a flexible arm. When a cartridge is pushed into the drive, it engages the protuberance and flexes it along the edge of the cartridge. The protuberance flexes back when it engages a cut-out in the side of the cartridge. An opening in a side wall of the disk drive chassis allows the flexible arm to flex out when the cartridge engages it. The flexible arm is attached to a sliding lever. As the cartridge is inserted further into the drive, the flexible arm moves past the opening and thereby locks the cartridge into the drive. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Small changes of extracellular pH activate depolarizing inward currents in most nociceptive neurons. It has been recently proposed that acid sensitivity of sensory as well as central neurons is mediated by a family of proton-gated cation channels structurally related to C. elegans degenerins and mammalian epithelial sodium channels. We describe here the molecular cloning of a novel human proton receptor, hASIC3, a 531 amino acid-long subunit homologous to rat DRASIC. Expression of homomeric hASIC3 channels in Xenopus oocytes generated biphasic inward currents elicited at pH < 5, providing the first functional evidence of a human proton-gated ion channel. Contrary to the DRASIC current phenotype, the fast desensitizing early component and the slow sustained late component differed both by their cationic selectivity and by their response to the antagonist amiloride, but not by their pH sensitivity (pH50= 3.66 vs 3.82). Using RT-PCR and mRNA blot hybridization, we detected hASIC3 mRNA in sensory ganglia, brain and many internal tissues including lung and testis, so hASIC3 gene expression was not restricted to peripheral sensory neurons. These functional and anatomical data strongly suggest that hASIC3 plays a major role in persistent proton-induced currents occurring in physiological and pathological conditions of pH changes, likely through a tissue-specific heteropolymerization with other members of the proton-gated channel family.
