Abstract: Car shows are a hobby of ever increasing popularity. During car show competitions or exhibition and information card is required to be displayed. The present invention shows a device for the display of information cards in a stylish way without detracting from the overall look of the car. The device is a modified clipboard to hang from the rearview mirror of a car. The rearview mirror clipboard is made of clear rigid, with a center hole and channel to accommodate the arm of the rearview mirror.

Abstract: The invention provides mitochondrially targeted antioxidant compounds. A compound of the invention comprises a lipophilic cation covalently coupled to an antioxidant moiety. In preferred embodiments, the lipophilic cation is the triphenyl phosphonium cation, and the compound is of the formula P(Ph3)+XR·Z− where X is a linking group, Z is an anion and R is an antioxidant moiety. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the mitochondrially targeted antioxidant compounds, and methods of therapy or prophylaxis of patients who would benefit from reduced oxidative stress, which comprise the step of administering the compounds of the invention.

Abstract: Cultured tissue constructs comprising cultured cells and endogenously produced extracellular matrix components without the requirement of exogenous matrix components or network support or scaffold members. Some tissue constructs of the invention are comprised of multiple cell layers or more than one cell type. The tissue constructs of the invention have morphological features and functions similar to tissues their cells are derived and their strength makes them easily handleable. Preferred cultured tissue constructs of the invention are prepared in defined media, that is, without the addition of chemically undefined components.

Abstract: An oil recovery mop has a floating carriage, a handle, and a number of oil-absorbing pads or squares suspended from the carriage. The carriage has a pair of tubular pontoons that support a crossbar at a clearance over the surface of the water, and the pads are removably attached to spring clips on the crossbar. When the oil mop is pushed out, one side of each pad faces the surface to absorb spilled oil. When the oil mop is pulled in, the pads reverse themselves and the other side faces down to absorb oil.

Abstract: A sheathed electric heater especially of the type used as diesel engine glow plugs has a dual coil heating element including separate tip heater and PTC body control coils thermally isolated by a low resistance connector section made from interengaging small diameter coiled connector portions integral with the tip and body coils and preferably welded together. Preferred material and dimensional specifications and pertinent design considerations are also included.

Abstract: A durable automotive exhaust gas oxygen sensor comprises a ceramic sleeve defining a bore and a titania pellet positioned in the bore against a shoulder thereof. Terminal rods and at least one spacer within the bore securely hold the pellet against the shoulder. The rods, spacer and sleeve are bonded together into a unified assembly by a fused glass seal within the bore that is spaced apart from the pellet.

Abstract: A readily manufacturable heated solid electrolyte oxygen sensor. The sensor includes a generally planar heater supported on a tubular reference electrode terminal in desired position normal to the longitudinal axis of said terminal and parallel to a generally planar solid electrolyte member within a cylindrical housing. The heater and terminal form a subassembly readily assemblable in concentric relationship with the planar solid electrolyte member and the cylindrical housing.

Abstract: A readily manufacturable heated solid electrolyte oxygen sensor. The sensor includes an elongated heater supported on a tubular reference electrode terminal in desired position relative to a solid electrolyte member within a cylindrical housing. The heater and terminal form a mutually electrically isolated subassembly in which the heater is in predetermined disposition with respect to the solid electrolyte member. An elongated heater is disposed within one or more ceramic sleeves that are in turn disposed within the electrode terminal tube. The heater, sleeves, and the terminal tube are vitreously bonded together to form a subassembly.

Abstract: A readily manufacturable heated solid electrolyte oxygen sensor having an elongated heater supported in subassembly with a tubular terminal for a reference electrode of the sensor. The heater is coaxial with the electrode terminal for predetermined disposition with respect to the sensor solid electrolyte member. The heater includes a rod coaxially in a ceramic tube and a resistance heating coil and crimped outer connector around the ceramic tube. Fused glass, directly bonded to the ceramic tube, supports the heater in the electrode terminal.

Abstract: A silicon solid state temperature responsive switching device having a thermally dependent P-N junction. The thermally dependent P-N junction is at the interface of a thermally invertible region and a non-invertible region. The thermally invertible region is doped with both P-type and N-type impurities. The P-type impurities have a concentration which is at least about 10 times the concentration of the N-type impurities. The P-type impurities also have an activation energy which is at least about three times the activation energy of the N-type impurities. Below a predetermined temperature, the doping effect of the N-type impurities predominates, and the invertible region is N-type. However, above the predetermined temperature, the doping effect of the P-type impurities predominates. A device insensitive to voltage source polarity is formed by sandwiching the thermally invertible region between two non-invertible regions.
