Abstract: L'invention concerne une tablette montée sur l'accordoir d'un ensemble siège de véhicule, à l'aide d'une articulation à quatre barres. Cette articulation fonctionne de manière à soulever l'accoudoir lors du déplacement de la tablette entre une position de rangement et une position d'utilisation. Le soulèvement de l'accoudoir agrandit l'espace libre entre la tablette et le plancher du véhicule, et entre la tablette et l'arrière du dossier de l'ensemble siège avant. Une seconde articulation à quatre barres sert à maintenir l'accoudoir dans une position fixe par rapport à la carrosserie du véhicule, quel que soit l'angle d'inclinaison du dossier du siège. Grâce à cet agencement, la tablette peut rester dans une position donnée par rapport à la carrosserie, comme une position horizontale, quelle que soit l'inclinaison du dossier du siège.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent garment having an elastic waist panel that includes one or more localized retention zones for retention of the garment in its initial, as-applied position on the body of a wearer. The retention zones include materials that have a higher coefficient of static friction than does the major surface area that constitutes the inner, body-facing surface of the garment. The garment can also include localized areas having a lower coefficient of static friction than that of the major inner surface area of the garment to facilitate placement of the garment in a desired wearing position. Such lower coefficient of static friction areas can include the areas adjacent the leg openings and the area of the waistband that overlies the stomach of the wearer. Additionally, the garment can also include within the waistband, as well as within the side, hip engaging panels of the garment, areas wherein the coefficient of static friction varies from high to low to provide improved retention and comfort over a wide range of wearing conditions and a wide range of movements of the wearer.

IPC: B29C45/16

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for producing a moulded plastic part, comprising several zones (42, 43). In methods and devices of this type, a moulded plastic part is usually produced in one production step in a mould. However, known moulding methods have the following disadvantage: the folding of the end regions of the cover material consisting of the laminated plastic zones into the plastic support material causes possible breaking points in the moulded plastic part and in addition, the area between the zones to be laminated and the zones consisting solely of injection-moulded material is not sealed satisfactorily. As a result of this insufficient seal, injected plastic melt can inadvertently seep under high pressure from the zones consisting solely of injection-moulded material into the zones to be laminated. The invention is characterised in that blade sections (50) are provided on the borders between the zones to be laminated (42) and the zones consisting solely of injection-moulded material (43), onto which slides (30) for sealing the zones (42, 43) can be pushed. Each inventive slide has a groove (31), whose lateral walls (34) encompass the end of the blade section (51) and optionally the border (41) of a cover material (44) laid on the blade section, when the slide (30) is pushed onto said blade section (50). Said lateral walls thus form a melt-tight barrier between the zones to be laminated (42) and the zones consisting solely of injection-moulded material (43). The finished moulded plastic parts produced by the inventive method and the inventive device have no undesired possible breaking points or defects resulting from the seepage of pressurised plastic melt into the zones to be laminated.

Abstract: An expandable stent suitable for implantation in a lumen is
covered with a biological material. In one embodiment,
biological fibers are interwoven to form a stent covering.
The fibers are disposed at an angle with respect to the
longitudinal axis of the stent so that when the stent is
expanded, the angle increases. In another embodiment, a strip
of pericardium is helically wound around a supporting stent
while the stent is in a compressed state. When the stent is
expanded, the strip unwinds, but maintains full coverage of
the stent. Interlocking edges may be formed on the strip of
pericardium to maintain full coverage of the stent.
