  • Publication number: 20050168019
    Abstract: A seat, in particular an aircraft passenger seat, has a seat component (10) and a backrest component (12) made at least in part of shell components. One shell component (22) is detachably connected to other components of the seat by a fastening mechanism. In the event of sudden introduction of force, as in the event of a crash, the shell component (22) is detached from the other components of the seat. A passive element is created by the shell component. When normal operating forces are present, that is, in the normal operating state of the seat, the passive element retains its position and shape. In the event of introduction of large force impulses, such as in sudden introduction of force in the event of a crash, the passive element is detached from the remaining shell structure of the seat without significant reaction forces being generated, which might cause injury of the seat occupant, and creates a free space in the seat.

  • Publication number: 20030165998
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to investigate the bonding of substances to target molecules. This is achieved by means of a densely packed device wherein various target molecules are bonded in a large number of sample areas. Cross-contamination and evaporation need to be minimized. The active surface of the sample areas have to be maximized. The inventive solution resides in the use of carrier plates, containing densely packed capillary structures and having a very large inner surface despite small outer dimensions. 1000 times more molecules can be bonded than on a flat outer surface of a comparable size. Cross contamination is avoided by the lack of cross links between the capillaries. Evaporation is minimized by a small outer surface. After the inner surface of the capillaries has been silanized, peptides and peptidomimetics are synthesized in a locally targeted manner.

  • Patent number: 6086881
    Abstract: The present invention is a spatially aligned conjugated composition which comprises at least one chemically modified substance which is immunologically representative of a prechosen infectious agent and provides a chemical constituent for entering into and forming a thioether bond; a plurality of chemically substituted metallic oxide particles which range from about 10-10,000 nanometers and are able to enter into a thioether bond and covalent linkage; and at least one thioether bond and linkage joining the metallic oxide particles in a controlled and spatially aligned manner to the antigen or hapten. The conjugated composition may be alternatively employed as an immunogen; as a vaccine; as a diagnostic tool and reactant; and as an analytical material suitable for testing the pharmacological activity of new compounds.
