  • Patent number: 8627607
    Abstract: Nonparallel sliding window guides guide a window for a motor vehicle. Each guide may have a guide rail. At least one guide has a fixed holding device mounted to the pane. At least one guide is attached to a holding device, in which the guide is movably mounted using an equalizing bearing. The equalization bearing comprises at least one movable interlink, preferably a pivotally movable interlink, wherein the interlink connects the guide rail to the holding device in a stabilizing manner to accommodate transverse and/or torsion forces that may act on the guide rail. The interlink engages with the guide via a control groove and control bolt. The distance between at least one guide and the sliding window changes depending on the displacement of the sliding window. The position of at least one guide relative to the mount also changes depending on the displacement of the sliding window.

  • Publication number: 20130129976
    Abstract: A method for coating a plastic surface and a plastic component is disclosed. The method includes applying a base layer to a plastic surface. A layer of a coating is applied by kinetic cold gas spraying on the base layer. The base layer is applied by a method that is different from the kinetic cold gas spraying. The base layer adheres to the plastic surface and the layer of the coating applied by kinetic cold gas spraying is deposited on the base layer by the kinetic cold gas spraying.

  • Patent number: 8227516
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds as inhibitors of enzymes having histone deacetylase activity, to the processes for the preparation of those compounds, and to their use for the treatment of diseases which are associated with hypoacetylation of histones and/or other molecules, or in which induction of hyperacetylation has a beneficial effect for example by inhibition of proliferation and/or induction of differentiation and/or induction of apoptosis in transformed cells, such as cancer. Furthermore, the compounds are useful for the treatment of other proliferative diseases, for therapy or prophylaxis of conditions associated with abnormal gene expression.

  • Publication number: 20110289732
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sliding window guide, in the case of which the guides, which guide the sliding window, do not run parallel, whereby the distance between the guides and the sliding window thus changes across the displacement path of the sliding window, wherein at least one of the guides encompasses a holding device, in which a guide rail is movably held by means of an equalizing bearing, so that the change of distance can be equalized via a displacement of the guide rail. To ensure a sufficient stability of the component in spite of the plurality of the components, which are movable relative to one another and in spite of the sliding window guide, which thus tends to be instable, provision is made for the guide rail and the holding device to be connected to one another via a pivotally movable holder, which is capable of accommodating transverse and/or torsion forces.
