Abstract: A method for producing a form-stable phase-change material to nucleate sugar alcohols includes directionally freezing a slurry of solid chitosan and solvent and additives, providing a frozen slurry including unidirectional pillars of frozen solvent that force suspended solid particles into interstices, exposing the frozen slurry to conditions causing sublimation of the solvent of the frozen slurry to remove frozen solvent and provide a body having pillars of vacancies therein, sintering the body to provide a scaffold including the pillars of vacancies therein, graphitizing the scaffold by heating in argon, treating the scaffold with aqueous base, and adding a molten sugar alcohol phase-change material to the scaffold such that the molten phase-change material is drawn into the pillars of vacancies by capillary action to provide the form-stable phase-change material having reduced hysteresis of the melting point of the sugar alcohol phase-change material.

The same scaffold when ground acts as a phase-change nucleating aid.

Abstract: The present invention provides tissue plasminogen activator antibody molecules and their uses. More particularly, the presently-disclosed invention provides humanised antibody molecules which specifically bind tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) and their use in treating TPA induced haemorrhage, in particular treating systemic haemorrhage such as brain haemorrhage after treatment of ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction, or systemic bleeding after TPA treatment of pulmonary embolism, ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a head-up display comprising a projection screen and a device for moving and positioning said projection screen. To open or close the projection screen by the device, a linear movement with a short path can be transformed into a pivoting movement with a long path, an adjustment of the incline of the projection screen being actuatable by means of the device when the projection screen is in the operating position. A method for operating a head-up display comprises actions of a projection screen and a device for moving and positioning a projection screen.

Abstract: The invention relates to a display unit having a projection screen for a head-up display. The projection screen is mechanically coupled to a main element, which is detachably connected to a carrier element and/or a mounting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a positioning system for a head-up display which comprises a combiner carrier being moved between a first position and a second position; a combiner rotatbly disposed on the combiner carrier and a tilt angle of the combiner being adjusted; and a driving mechanism for alternatively driving the movement of the combiner and the tilt angle adjustment of the combiner.

Abstract: A display unit includes a projection screen for a head-up display. The projection screen is mounted and arranged in a carrier element in such a way that it can pivot about an axis of inclination, the incline of the screen being adjustable by a pivoting device. The pivoting device includes at least one worm gear.

Abstract: A combiner positioning system for a head-up display (HUD) is provided. The positioning system includes a combiner holder, a pair of control discs, a pair of levers and a driving unit. The combiner holder is connected to the combiner, the levers are connected to the combiner holder and the control discs, and the driving unit is connected to the control discs. When the driving unit drives the control discs to rotate, the levers moves the combiner holder and the combiner. The positioning system enables the combiner's first movement from parking position (storage position) to operating position (display position) and a second movement for angular fine adjustment of the combiner is also enabled after reaching the operating position.
