Abstract: A headrest (1) for a vehicle has a headrest body (1.1). The headrest body (1.1) has a substantially C-shaped cross section. A holder (5), for holding at least one object (3), is arranged inside a hollow space (H) enclosed by the C-shaped cross section. The holder (5) is integral with the headrest body (1.1) and is formed by a molded portion, or several molded portions, of the headrest body (1.1), and/or by at least one mechanically flexible portion of the headrest body (1.1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a head restraint, in particular a motor vehicle head restraint, wherein the head restraint has a cover and a foam material, wherein the foam material fills out the cover at least in some areas, wherein the method comprises the following steps: producing a prototype mold, wherein the prototype mold comprises at least two parts, wherein when the parts of the prototype mold are assembled, the prototype mold has an inner surface that faces the interior of the prototype mold and an outer surface, producing the cover, assembling the parts of the prototype mold in such a way that the cover is arranged in the interior of the prototype mold, and introducing the foam material into the interior of the cover, wherein the foam material is at least partially liquid when said foam material is introduced into the interior of the cover.

Abstract: A headrest (1) for a vehicle includes a headrest body (2), a headrest mounting (3), and an outer face fitting (4). A connecting part (5), within the headrest body (2) connects the headrest mounting (3) to the headrest body (2). The connecting part (5) is made of a first foam material produced within the fitting (4) in a pour-in-place method. A support element (8), which is made of a second foam material, is arranged on an inner face of the fitting (4) in a supporting region (SB), which is provided for supporting the head of a passenger, between the connecting part (5) and the fitting (4). The first foam material has a greater strength, in particular a greater compressive strength, and a greater indentation hardness than the second foam material. A method for producing a headrest (1) for a vehicle is also provided.

Abstract: A head restraint includes a base element on which two wing elements are mounted by at least one hinge so as to rotate about a vertical axis. The hinge has a pin and a recess which are frustoconical. The support structure of each wing element is in two parts.

Abstract: A radiation beam analyzer for measuring the distribution and intensity of radiation produced by a Cyberknife®. The analyzer employs a relative small tank of water into which a sensor is placed to maintain a constant SAD (source to axis distance). A first method maintains a fixed position of detector, and raises or lowers the small tank of water. A second method moves the detector up, down or rotationally synchronously in opposite directions with respect to the small tank of water to keep the SAD constant. These methods position the detector relative to the radiation source to simulate the location of a malady within a patient's body. An embodiment of the present invention enables measurements of substantially larger fields. This is accomplished by rotating a tank of water 90 degrees from a first position to a second position.

Abstract: A cane has a rectilinear, or approximately rectilinear, shaft, an upper end, including a handle for gripping and support, and a lower end provided with a ferrule having a non-slip function. The ferrule has a widening in the form of a disc that is coaxial with the cane and is intended to form a lever that is able to allow recovery when a pressure is applied. The shaft and handle are made of a lightweight material, and the ferrule contains a ballast so as to move the center of gravity of the cane as close as possible to the lower end, while the ferrule has a convex end wall.

Abstract: A radiation beam analyzer for measuring the distribution and intensity of radiation produced by a Cyberknife®. The analyzer employs a relative small tank of water into which a sensor is placed. The distance between the sensor and the radiation source is not varied. There are two methods to maintain the SAD (source to axis distance) constant. A first method maintains the position of detector fixed, utilizing a holder designed to retain the detector, and raises or lowers the small tank of water. A second method moves the detector up or down with a raising and lower mechanism in one direction and synchronically moves the small tank of water in the opposite direction with another raising and lowering mechanism. The second method also keeps the SAD constant. These methods position the detector relative to the radiation source to simulate the location of a malady within a patient's body.

Abstract: A radiation beam analyzer for measuring the distribution and intensity of radiation produced by a CyberKnife®. The analyzer employs a relative small tank of water into which a sensor is placed. The distance between the sensor and the radiation source is not varied. The tank of water is raised and lowered relative to the sensor to simulate the location of a malady within a patient's body. This movement of the tank permits the radiation from the CyberKnife® to be properly calibrated and adjusted for a proper treatment of a malady in a patient.
