  • Patent number: 11951940
    Abstract: A wheel fastener alarm assembly is provided having a fastener body with a first portion defining a wrenching surface and a cavity, and a second portion with a threaded portion to attach and detach from a wheel of a vehicle. A sensor array is disposed in the cavity of fastener body to detect an attribute of the fastener body and generate an output signal based on the attribute of the fastener body. An antenna connected to the sensor array to transmit the signal to a remote location. A cap is secured to the first portion of the fastener body and covers the wrenching surface and the cavity opening to define a capped fastener body.

  • Publication number: 20240091212
    Abstract: Behavioral pharmacological data with the compound of formula (I), a novel and selective 5HT2A/2C receptor inverse agonist, demonstrate in vivo efficacy in models of psychosis and dyskinesias. This includes activity in reversing MK-801 induced locomotor behaviors, suggesting that this compound may be an efficacious anti-psychotic, and activity in an MPTP primate model of dyskinesias, suggesting efficacy as an anti-dyskinesia agent. These data support the hypothesis that 5HT2A/2C receptor inverse agonism may confer antipsychotic and anti-dyskinetic efficacy in humans, and indicate a use of the compound of formula (I) and related agents as novel therapeutics for Parkinson's Disease, related human neurodegenerative diseases, and psychosis.

  • Patent number: 4473359
    Abstract: The device is intended for use in coupling together the ends of two spaced apart shafts. The device consists principally of two opposing coupling hubs interconnected by a flexible coupling member. The coupling hubs are identical. The outer surface of each hub is flat. The interior of each coupling hub shows an internal hub having an opening therethrough to receive the end of one shaft. A set screw is provided in the inner hub to further secure the coupling hub to the shaft. The outer wall of the coupling hub presents a scalloped appearance with the points of the scallops directed inwardly. The outer wall is spaced from the inner hub which has an outer vertical surface of saw-toothed configuration. There is an opening through the outer wall of the coupling hub so that an Allen wrench or like device may be inserted therethrough to turn the set screw. The flexible coupling member interconnecting the two coupling hubs has a smooth cylindrical central section with a flange on each end.
