Abstract: The invention provides antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments thereof, that specifically bind to CXCR5. The antibodies can be afucosylated and exhibit increased ADCC compared with the otherwise identical fucosylated antibodies. The invention includes uses, and associated methods of using the antibodies.

Abstract: There is disclosed a mechanism for detecting that a valve coupled to a pressurized container is fully installed into a nose piece of a latching solenoid actuator coupled to a fire suppression system.

Abstract: A pin joint for eccentric screw pumps. The special design of the inner joint head of the pin joint, with its bores for the flushing liquid and the length of the joint pin, makes it possible also to carry out cleaning using the CIP method.

Abstract: A method for generating translation maps for converting electronic documents is disclosed. Machine-interpretable encodings of respective source and target documents are used to automatically generate the translation map. Generating the machine-interpretable encodings may involve using semantic analysis to create semantic descriptions of the document formats. The translation map may be cached. The source document is converted to the target document using the translation map. The translation map or the target document may be delivered to a second entity by a first entity. If some portion of the source document is not converted, indication of the unconverted sections may be reported.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the arrangement of a stator and a spare stator. In order to avoid a permanent correction in the length of the driving shaft, the spare stator is connected to the instantaneously operated stator or is configured in a single piece. Upon occurrence of a defined amount of wear, this stator combination is merely reversed through 180° relative to the longitudinal axis or an intermediate tube is inserted so that the spare stator arrives in the rotor region.

Abstract: A rod sleeve, at least comprising a core having a core hub that has two faces and a core pin, which extends in the direction of a longitudinal axis Y. This core pin projects over both faces of the core hub while forming two connecting journals. The sleeve also comprises an outer sleeve and an elastic layer located between the core hub and the outer sleeve. The core hub and the core pin form a one-piece core system that is in the form of two parts with regard to a normal axis X to the longitudinal axis Y. Both core halves are assembled with interference fit via an insertion-slot system. The core hub between its two faces undergoes a tapering with an angle change ?, whereby the respective contact surfaces of the core hub and of the outer sleeve extend in a manner that essentially corresponds to the elastic layer. The outer sleeve and the elastic layer are provided in two parts with regard to the normal axis X to the longitudinal Y.

Abstract: An amputee support assembly includes a seat, a limb support and a pivot point disposed between the seat and limb support. The seat is attached to a first pivot member, a second pivot member, and a cam lock mechanism. The first pivot member and the second pivot member are adapted to rotatably engage one another when the cam lock mechanism is used. Each pivot member includes a hub portion having a circular face and a number of teeth defined within the face. The first pivot member includes a hub recess that is designed to receive a hub extension of the second pivot member. The outer periphery of the hub portion of the second pivot member also includes a lip that precludes access to the teeth that lie between the first and second pivot members. The cam lock mechanism includes a cam lock lever that is pivotally attached to a lock post. Rotation of the cam lock lever effects a pulling force on the lock post, forcing the pivot members together to prevent rotation between them.

Abstract: An elastomer spring, particularly for rail vehicles, comprises a core made of metal or plastic; an outer sleeve that also consists of metal or plastic; a cushion made of elastomer material, in the form of a layered spring that is arranged between the core and the outer sleeve; as well as a base chamber that is configured below a core offset. The elastomer spring is configured in multiple steps in the vertical direction X, specifically consisting of at least a first spring and a second spring, whereby a chamber is present between two springs, in each instance.

Abstract: A sleeve (1), particularly a rod sleeve, at least consisting of a core comprising a core hub (2) that has two faces (3), and comprising a core pin (4), which extends in the direction of longitudinal axis Y and which projects over both faces of the core hub while forming two connecting journals (5). The inventive sleeve also consists of an outer sleeve (6) and of an elastic layer (7) located between the core hub (2) and the outer sleeve (6). The core hub (2) and the core pin (4) form a one-piece core system that is provided, however, in two parts with regard to the normal X to the longitudinal axis Y, whereby both core halves (A1, A2) are assembled with interference fit by means of an insertion-slot system (8). The core hub (2) between its two faces (3) undergoes a tapering with an angle change?, whereby the respective contact surfaces (9, 10) of the core hub and of the outer sleeve (6) extend in a manner that essentially corresponds to the elastic layer (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to an elastomer spring (1), particularly for rail vehicles, comprising at least:

Abstract: The present invention relates to an eccentric screw-type pump. Due to their contact with the product to be pumped, the rotor and the stator of an eccentric screw-type are subject to a permanent wearing process. As the exchange of corresponding components subject to wear involves down times or requires special tools, the inventive eccentric screw-type pump is provided with a spare unit including, in particular, the stator, the rotor, the shaft, the driving shaft and the seal.
