Abstract: An adjustable slider of a window regulator includes a base body configured to connect with a cable of the window regulator and a clamp-plate assembly having first and second jaws configured to clamp a windowpane therebetween. A hinge plate supports the clamp-plate assembly. A first adjustment mechanism pivotally connects the hinge plate to the base body such that the clamp-plate assembly and the hinge plate are pivotal relative to the base body allowing a vertical angle of the clamp-plate assembly to be changed. The first adjustment mechanism is actuatable to move the hinge plate relative to the base body in a fore-and-aft direction allowing a fore-and-aft position of the clamp-plate assembly to be adjusted.

Abstract: Adjustable slider may include a first jaw, an engagement member, and an adjustment mechanism. The first jaw may extend in a first direction and include a first face. The first face may include a ramped surface that may extend obliquely with respect to the first direction. The engagement member may be configured to be disposed between the window pane and the first jaw. The adjustment mechanism may include an adjustment member that may be configured to rotate about a first rotational axis. The adjustment mechanism may also include a translatable member that may be coupled to the engagement member and configured to translate about the first rotational axis such that rotation of the adjustment member moves the engagement member along the ramped surface of the first jaw.

Abstract: A thermoplastic compound is disclosed which has low specific gravity by virtue of the use of glass microspheres. Underwater articles, especially wire and cable, benefit from the insulative and buoyancy effect of using the thermoplastic compound with the other article components, engineered using buoyancy calculations to have consistent neutral buoyancy for reduced energy expenditure and convenient maneuverability of the underwater articles as if they were floating in outer space.

Abstract: An injection moulding apparatus (10) includes similar co-injection modules (12) each provided with common supplies (238-242) and supplied with different polymer materials at intermediate pressure by common plasticisers (14-18). Each module has a co-injection nozzle assembly (70) in wich each nozzle (148-154) is supplied with polymer at injection pressure by an injector (208) which receives polymer through a non-return valve (220). The injector is mounted alongside the nozzle on a polymer transfer plate (138-146), and has the position of its piston (212) controlled by a hydraulic actuator (214) under the control of a dedicated micro-processor (164) in accordance with a stored injection control program. Each polymer is injected by an injector (208) directly into the associated nozzle (148-154) and is controlled solely by injector operation, and without the use of any control valve between the injector and the nozzle.
