  • Publication number: 20240336170
    Abstract: A walk-in apparatus for a vehicle seat includes a walk-in bracket rotatably coupled to a crossbar of a cushion frame and operable to release a fixing member by contacting the fixing member of a seat rail; a compensator bracket operably connected to the walk-in bracket through a hinge, the compensator bracket also being connected to a walk-in cable; and a compensator spring configured to support the walk-in bracket and the compensator bracket, rotate at least one of the walk-in bracket and the compensator bracket, and operate in such a manner as to return the compensator bracket. Even when the walk-in cable is released due to a seatback rebound phenomenon during a walk-in operation, the walk-in bracket maintains a pressing state of the fixing member to maintain continuously an unlocking state of the seat rail, allowing the vehicle seat to move forward smoothly to enable a walk-in operation.

  • Publication number: 20240000680
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an enzyme for producing hydroxy derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids, a method for producing hydroxy derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids using the same, and an SPMs complex composition containing the hydroxy derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The enzyme may produce hydroxy derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids in a single reaction, and thus may be very usefully used for in vitro production. In addition, the SPMs complex composition containing the hydroxy derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids promotes collagen production, inhibits the production of NO and expression of TNF-? and IL-6, increases the expression of filaggrin and loricrin, and thus may be usefully used for preventing or alleviating skin aging or wrinkles, strengthening skin barrier, or preventing, alleviating or treating skin diseases comprising atopic dermatitis.
