Abstract:
A device (11) for openable locking of an openable element (10), comprising a latch housing (16) having a latch (17) being adjustable between a protruding position and a retracted position, and a movably arranged arm (18) cooperating with the latch (17), wherein the arm (18) is arranged for connection with a control device (12) for controlling the latch (17) through the arm (18). The arm (18) is arranged with a blocking surface (37) for engaging a portion (42) of the latch (17) in the protruding position of the latch and thereby forming a blocking function for preventing the latch (17) from being displaced into the latch housing (16) due to a force applied on an outer side (31) of the latch (17) outside the latch housing (16). The device (11) comprises a movably arranged unblocking element (19) having a strike surface (41) for cooperation with an element (13) outside the latch housing (16), and a portion (40) for cooperation with the arm (18), wherein the unblocking element (19) is arranged for unblocking the blocking function when a force is applied on the strike surface (41) of the unblocking element (19).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a woodchip board (3) comprising a first (21) and second (23) woodchip layer sandwiching an intermediate layer (12) comprising woodchips of other chip size than the first (21) and second (23) woodchip layer. The method comprises the steps involving application of a first quantity (5) of glued woodchips (7) to a lower tool face (9) of a pressing tool (1, 31); application of a filler quantity (11) of glued woodchips (7') to the first quantity (5); application of a second quantity (13) of glued woodchips (7) to the filler quantity (11); compression of said quantities (5, 11, 13) by means of the lower (9) tool face and an upper tool face (15); realization of differentiated times when the glue of the glued woodchips (7) hardens in the first (5) and second quantity (13) respectively, by virtue of the production of these quantities with different thickness and/or by heating of the respective quantities (5, 13) to different temperatures; and removal of the hardened woodchip board (3) from the pressing tool (1, 31).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for fixation to a patient during neurological diagnosis, therapy or surgery, in particular during MRI diagnosis. The device comprises at least one fixation pin being made of a non-magnetic, electrically conductive material for fixation to a patient, and at least one pin support member for supporting said fixation pin. An insulation means is arranged so as to restrict the electrical coupling between said pin support member and fixation pin. Said insulation means is sleeve shaped and arranged to at least partly surround said fixation pin. The invention also relates to an insulation means, a pin support member and to a method for assembling a fixation device.
Abstract:
A bed has a fixed frame section. In the frame section, there is secured a raisable back rest unit (12), a raisable leg rest unit (22) and an operating device. The operating device is intended for positional adjustment of the back rest unit (12) and the leg rest unit (22) and is placed substantially above the underside of the frame section. The operating device further includes a drive motor which is connected, on the one hand, to the frame section and, on the other hand, to both back rest unit (12) and the leg rest unit. The connection between the drive motor and the back rest unit (12) and leg rest unit (22), respectively, includes a number of linkage arms.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a wood-based furniture component (24). The method comprises steps in which chips (7) are distributed forming a chip mat (13), the chip mat (13) is compressed by means of a tool surface (19) comprising one or more gaps (21) for forming one or more projecting chip segments (53), forming spacers (5, 63, 71), the finish- pressed chipboard (3) is fed out and the projecting chip segments (53) of the finish-pressed chipboard (53) are joined to another furniture component structural element (3', 47, 49, 73).
Abstract:
A chip board including an intermediary layer (1) and a layer (2) of large chips positioned on both sides of said intermediary layer. An outer layer (3) is provided on the 5 outer surface of each layer of large chips. In addition to the chips, the layers include an adhesive. The intermediary layer (1) includes a mixture of wood chips having chip fractions of a chip size of 0.1 to 20 mm, and the chips of this layer are randomly oriented. The individual chip in the layer (2) of large chips presents the following characteristics: a length of approx. 50 to approx. 130 mm, a width of approx. 4 to approx. 40 mm and a thickness of approx. 0.2 to approx. 2.0 mm. The chips within each layer (2) of large chips are all oriented in one and the same direction. As a result, a chip board is obtained which demonstrates a significantly higher E- module and stiffness in flexure than hitherto known despite a reduced consumption of material.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for prevention of fouling of boat bottoms and other floating objects, said device consists of a flexible, mat like member intended to be positionally fixated to the bottom of the boat or another floating object in question with the aid of suitable fastening means, wherein the flexible, mat like structure consists of a mat (2), which after having been driven up onto by a boat hull over the same, is pressed upwards in a direction towards the boat hull bottom into close contact therewith. The mat (2) consists of a resilient, floating material such as plastic tubes with closed ends or, alternatively, rope or homogeneous cord (3) having a lower density than water and which mutually form a grid pattern (4) with a mesh size adapted to the desired lifting power over the entire surface of the mat (2), which is intended for contact with the boat bottom of the floating object in question so as to conform to the shape of the bottom of the boat by means of the water pressure and which grid pattern (4) between the tubes (3) allows the abrased waste of vegetation to easily penetrate through the mat (2) to sink down to the bottom without adhering to the minimal surface of the mat (2), whereby ongoing contact and movement created by the mat through its resilient and floating construction against the surface of the object prevent organisms from starting to grow when the object is driven up onto the mat.

Methods for reducing rejection of pancreatic islet cells transplanted into a subject are disclosed. The methods involve transplanting pancreatic islet cells into a subject in the presence of a complement inhibitor, alone or combined with dextran sulfate.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a particle board comprising a lower and an upper surface layer (9, 11) having a finer fraction of particles (4), and between these surface layers (9, 11) an intermediate layer (13) having a coarser fraction of particles (5). The intermediate layer (13) has a varying density.
