Title: Cage nut assembly having stand-offs
Inventor: CLINCH JAMES PATRICK
IPC: F16B39/28
Filed: 2004-07-13
Granted: 2012-09-25
Abstract: A cage nut assembly includes a nut and a cage wrapped therearound. The nut and/or the cage are provided with a number of stand-offs. The stand-offs reduce the amount of bearing surface interface between the cage and the nut thus reducing the possibility that the two parts will stick to each other after a bath is applied to the mating surface, and thus to the cage nut assembly, as the cage is welded to the mating surface. The stand-offs can be configured such that the cage nut assembly can move through the bath in a horizontal position, an upside down position, or a sideways positions, substantially without the cage and nut sticking to one another.

Abstract: The invention thus relates to compounds of formula 1 (see formula 1) in which R1 is 1-4C-alkyl and R2 is 1-4C-alkyl, and R3 and R9 have prescribed meanings. The compounds according to the invention have useful pharmacological properties which make them industrially utilizable. As selective cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors (specifically of type 4), they are suitable on the one hand as bronchial therapeutics (for the treatment of airway obstructions on account of their dilating action but also on account of their respiratory rate- or respiratory drive-increasing action) and for the removal of erectile dysfunction on account of their vascular dilating action, but on the other hand especially for the treatment of disorders, in particular of an inflammatory nature, e.g. of the airways (asthma prophylaxis), of the skin, of the intestine, of the eyes, of the CNS  and of the joints, which are mediated by mediators such as histamine, PAF (platelet-activating factor), arachidonic acid derivatives such as leukotrienes and prostaglandins, cytokines, interleukins, chemokines, alpha-, beta- and gamma-interferon, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or oxygen free radicals and proteases. In this context, the compounds according to the invention are distinguished by a low toxicity, a good enteral absorption (high bioavailability), a large therapeutic breadth and the absence of significant side effects.

Abstract: A display bar assembly for mounting on spaced apart slotted uprights on a merchandising gondola or the like. A display bar of non-circular cross section is fitted with a pair of mounting brackets, which are slideable along the bar to enable spacing of the mounting brackets to agree with the spacing between the slotted uprights of a gondola, which can be somewhat variable. The mounting brackets are formed with openings which closely and non--rotatably receive the display bar and are provided with hooks which engage slots in the uprights. Flanged end plugs are received tightly in each end of the display bar to prevent removal of the slideable brackets, such that the display bar and brackets form a permanent assembly. The mounting brackets may have multiple slot-engaging hooks for installation on uprights of different thicknesses in different rotary positions of the assembly. Where necessary to maintain a predetermined orientation of the display bar, the display bar can be formed with an axially limited portion of reduced cross section, enabling the mounting brackets, when positioned thereat, to be rotationally reoriented relative to the display bar.
