Abstract: A trim element having a wire element and a guiding device. A mobile portion of the wire element moves between a deployed position, wherein the mobile portion extends along a first path, and a retracted position, wherein the mobile portion extends along a second path. The guiding device includes a guide surface, with the mobile portion being separated from the guide surface in the deployed position and matching the shape of the guide surface in the retracted position. The guiding device has a constraint element movable between a separated position and a constraint position, wherein the constraint element moves the mobile portion toward the guide surface.

Abstract: A stator assembly for an electric machine includes a first housing portion, a second housing portion, a stator body inserted into at least the first housing portion, a link for rotatably linking the stator body with the first housing portion, a first attachment for attaching the stator body to the first housing portion, and a second attachment for attaching the two housing portions to one another. The assembly includes an annular seal inserted axially between the stator body and the first attachment as well as between the two housing portions.

Abstract: A cooling device for cooling an electric machine of a motor vehicle includes a reservoir and a circuit fluidically connected to the reservoir.

Abstract: A cooling device for an electrical machine, which is intended to be mounted in a mobile assembly, the device including a dielectric liquid reservoir mounted to a casing in a leak-tight manner, and including a discharge conduit for dielectric liquid extending into the reservoir from a discharge hole of the casing at one end of the reservoir toward an opposite end of the reservoir.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for determining whether a patient will achieve a response after radiation therapy, in particular a method for determining whether a patient suffering from a cancer will achieve a response after radiation therapy including the steps of i) determining the level of ceramide in a first blood sample obtained from the patient before radiation therapy, ii) determining the level of ceramide in a second blood sample obtained from the patient during or just after radiation therapy, iii) comparing the level determined at step i) with the level determined at step ii) and iv) concluding that the patient will achieve response when the level determined at step ii) is higher than the level determined at step i) or concluding that the patient will not achieve a response when the level determined at step ii) is lower than the level determined at step i).

Abstract: The present invention lies in the field of new cancer therapies, more precisely in the field of antiangiogenic compounds. It notably concerns anti-Gb3 antibodies having specific CDR sequences, as well as the use of anti-Gb3 antibodies not coupled to a therapeutic molecule in the treatment of diseases associated with angiogenesis, such as solid tumors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new IL-11 muteins of which site I hydrophobocity has been increased. These muteins act as IL-11 agonist or hyperagonist, and are notably useful as anti-thrombocytopenia agents, and as agents improving the resistance of an organism to the deleterious in vivo effects induced by radiation or chemotherapy during the treatment of cancer or for the preparation of patient to transplantation.

Abstract: A sport boot sole having at least one arrangement for connecting the boot to a sport article along an axis substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the boot, this connecting arrangement having an anchoring device in the sole, wherein the anchoring device is arranged along a plane essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the sole and is independent. Advantageously, each connecting arrangement is constituted by a substantially U-shaped buckle having a transverse arm defining the articulation axle and two lateral arms, and each lateral arm is anchored along a substantially vertical direction inside the sole.

Abstract: Sports footwear such as a boot comprising a rigid base (2) and an upper (3), and engageable with a ski or the like (6) on which the boot is to be supported and retained, while also enabling walking under favourable conditions. The boot is provided with a walking sole and comprises bearing surfaces (12, 13) recessed into the rigid base relative to the sole surface. The bearing surfaces (12, 13) are engageable, directly or via a cradle (7), with the top surfaces of projections (16, 17) on the ski, whereby the boot/ski and boot/ground interfaces are separate.

Abstract: An apparatus for retaining a boot on a glide plate especially adapted for snowboarding, the boot including an upper affixed to a sole adapted to cooperate with the board. The apparatus includes a longitudinal positioning and retention device for the boot thereupon, such device being obtained in a complementary manner in a front lateral zone and a rear lateral zone and in the corresponding zones of the sole. Also, the transverse axes of the front and rear retention devices are spaced apart by a distance that is common to at least two boot sizes, enabling the length of the boot to be released and allowing the front and rear ends of the boot to be freed of all retention elements with respect to the board, such elements extending exclusively in a lateral direction with respect to the sole.

Abstract: A device for retaining a boot on a gliding board. The device includes in particular a dorsal support element and a base, the dorsal support element being journalled on the base along a substantially transverse Y-Y' axis of the device, wherein at least one control device generates a journal movement of the dorsal support element with respect to the base along the Y-Y' axis, from an opening position toward a closing position in a rear-to-front direction, when the sole of the boot is displaced toward the board during affixation of the boot, wherein an elastic element biases the dorsal support element along the Y-Y' axis in a front-to-rear direction, wherein a stop limits the movement of the dorsal support element in the front-to-rear direction, and wherein the dorsal support element has a scallop at the level of the heel of the boot.

Abstract: A detection device for data relating to the passage of vehicles over a road. The detection device is to be placed in a groove provided in the upper portion of the road and comprises a first profiled strip provided with an upper cavity in a U-shape, and a piezoelectric cable of the coaxial type arranged in the bottom of the cavity of the first profiled strip. A second profiled strip is arranged in the cavity of the first profiled strip on top of the coaxial cable. The second strip has a shape and dimensions such that it fills up the remaining volume of the cavity above the cable and seals this cavity.

Abstract: Lost-fluid hydraulic actuation system.This system makes it possible to control for a short time an element (168) in an autonomous working unit, particularly a rocket, with an onboard means (100) connected to the unit. Hydraulic fluid under pressure is introduced into the element (168) by a delivery pipe (141). A tank (130) supplies the hydraulic fluid used during the autonomous working, a helium bottle (110) puts the hydraulic fluid under pressure, and an evacuation pipe (171) evacuates the hydraulic fluid out of the autonomous unit after it has actuated the element (168).
