Title: Current drive circuit and drive method thereof, and electroluminescent display apparatus using the circuit
Inventor: HATTORI REIJI
IPC: G09G3/32
Filed: 2003-06-27
Granted: 2006-07-06
Abstract: A current drive apparatus for an active matrix display operates a plurality of loads, e.g. organic or inorganic EL elements, by applying a current thereto. The apparatus includes a plurality of output terminals to which the loads are respectively connected. A single current generation circuit comprising e.g. a digital to analogue converter and a current mirror, outputs an operating current having a predetermined current value. A plurality of current storage circuits are provided in accordance with the respective output terminals, sequentially sample and hold the operating current and then simultaneously output the drive currents based on the sampled operating currents to the respective output terminals. The operating current has a current value according to an input signal. The current storage circuit includes a voltage component holding section which samples the operating current outputted from the current generation circuit and holds a voltage component for driving a drive control current corresponding to a current value of the operating current for driving a second current mirror.

Title: Steering damper and backup lock beam attachment
Inventor: RAMSEY JOHN
IPC: B62D61/12
Filed: 2003-10-10
Granted: 2007-10-11
Abstract: A steerable lift axle/suspension system for a heavy-duty vehicle such as a semi-trailer or a straight truck, includes a pair of steering dampers and a backup lock. The steering dampers minimize shimmy of the steerable wheels during over-the-road operation of the vehicle, and straighten the wheels on such steerable axle/suspension systems having a lift feature when the system is raised. The backup lock secures the wheels in a straightened position when such liftable systems are raised and the vehicle is backing up, to minimize vehicle handling problems. The steering dampers and backup lock are mounted at a location off the axle tube of the axle and on the axle/suspension system beams, to eliminate stress on the axle that would otherwise be caused by welded attachment of such components to the axle tube, thereby enabling use of a less robust, more lightweight axle tube.

Title: Combination treatment for multiple sclerosis
Inventor: LUCA GIAMPIERO DE
IPC: A61K39/395
Filed: 2005-12-20
Granted: 2011-03-31
Abstract: This invention is directed towards treatments for multiple sclerosis comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a first agent, such as 2-chloro-2′-deoxyadenosine (2-CdA), that reduces the number of lymphocytes in combination with a second agent, such as an anti-alpha-4 integrin antibody, that blocks the adhesion of monocytes and leukocytes to endothelial cells.

Title: Connector for use in display frames
Inventor: STREVENS EVITT JONATHAN HENRY
IPC: F16B21/09
Filed: 2007-11-19
Granted: 2011-08-18
Abstract: The connector is intended for use in displays of the kind which include a display frame formed of a plurality of beams (1) which are joined together by multi-way node fittings to form a three-dimensional shape, and display panels are releasably secured to the beams. The connector includes a male fitting (3) which has a stem (8) projecting from a plate (4), and a head (9) comprising four noses which project laterally from the stem. The head (9) is inserted in a correspondingly-shaped aperture of a female node fitting and rotated into positive engagement with the inner face of the node fitting. The trailing faces of the four noses have oppositely-inclined ramps which act to provide progressive tightening and alignment of the connector as the male part is rotated within the aperture. The connector provides a joint with greater stability and enables a firm connection to be obtained with a smaller angle of rotation and reduced engagement force. The strength of joint is less dependent on manufacturing tolerances and the connection is less likely to become slack due to wear or damage. Modified male fittings have threaded sockets for attaching feet and other items to the display, and caps are provided to cover any unused apertures in the node fitting.
