Abstract: A transparent conductor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a transparent substrate, and a transparent conductive pattern formed on the transparent substrate, and the transparent conductor includes a nanostructure on an upper surface of at least one of the transparent substrate and the transparent conductive pattern.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a crash-resistant structural part for an automobile, the crash-resistant structural part including a beam element for receiving an impact force during a crash of the automobile is provided. The method comprises a step of arranging at least one layer of fibers having a length of 100 mm or more, and a step of mixing components required to form a thermoplastic polymer resin, the components including a reactive monomer, thereby forming a liquid precursor mixture of the thermoplastic polymer resin. At least one layer of fibers is impregnated with the liquid precursor mixture, and the beam element is formed by an in-situ polymerization reaction of the liquid precursor mixture having impregnated the at least one layer of fibers.

Abstract: The crossbar assembly includes a crossbar spanned between two side rails spaced apart from each other and sliding means fixed to both ends of the crossbar for slideably engaging the crossbar with the side rails. The sliding means including a rotatable lever, a lower clamp operative in conjunction with the rotatable lever, and a pad on which the side rail sits. The side rails disposed at the left side and right side of the roof panel of a vehicle have different bottom surfaces. Moreover, the pads of the sliding means, which directly contact the bottom surfaces of the side rails, have different sitting surfaces in order to tightly contact with the side rails. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively prevent the crossbar from being installed to the side rails in a reverse direction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle roof rack assembly with an adjustable cross rail in which a guide groove is formed in both side surfaces of a side rail in a longitudinal direction and is installed on a side rail in a state that it is supported by a mounting member in which a cross rail is position-adjustable along a guide rail. The mounting member includes a locking part being locked with an inner surface of a guide groove, and an engaging part engaged with the cross rail and is supported on an upper surface of a side rail and in a guide groove of both lateral surfaces. Therefore, wind noise is significantly decreased, and an outer visual appearance is enhanced. An engaging and disengaging operation of the cross rail is easily achieved.
