Abstract: A pivotable display system having a traction spring tensioned to reversibly pivot the display around a pivot axis of a shaft connected to an upper portion of a display in a direction from a front side of the display toward the rear side of the display. In the event of an accident-related application of force below a threshold, the display is rotatable in a rearward direction toward an instrument panel, so that a steering column pushed in a direction towards the display avoids or at least reduces the risk of destruction of the display. In the event of accident-related application of force above the threshold, the traction spring may reversibly displace the display upwardly away from the steering column.

Abstract: An electronic unit for a vehicle, comprising surface elements arranged next to one another with a visible surface side and a surface underside is disclosed. The surface elements are fixed in a housing. The housing has a top side facing the surface underside and an underside, wherein a carrier plate is provided. Each housing on its underside has at least one protruding fixing element for fixing the surface elements to the carrier plate. The carrier plate connects the surface elements together, wherein each fixing element has an index element arranged on the fixing element between the carrier plate and the underside and is releasably connected to the fixing element. The index elements are connected to the carrier plate by substance bonding so each surface element is releasably fixed to the carrier plate, and wherein by the index elements, the surface elements are arranged relative to and level with one another.

Abstract: A display with a two-dimensional display element, which is planar or curved, and an illumination unit for the display element is disclosed.

The second cinching stage utilizes a cinch mechanism to drive the decklid from its cinched position into a fully-closed position.

Abstract: The invention is based on the surprising finding of antibodies that bind to an immunoglobulin-like (Ig) domain of the extra cellular domain (ECD) of IGSF11 (VSIG3) can also inhibit the interaction between IGSF11 and IGSF11 receptors such as VSIR (VISTA), the inhibition of such interaction can sensitise tumour cells to anti-tumour immune responses. In particular, the invention provides products, compositions and methods for treating diseases using modulators of IGSF11, especially antigen binding proteins targeting an Ig domain of IGSF11-ECD, including those being inhibitors of IGSF11-interaction with VSIR. Also provided are methods of sensitising cells involved with a proliferative disorder against the cytotoxic effect of cell-mediated immune responses, and/or to kill such cells and/or methods for treating proliferative diseases, using an IGSF11 inhibitor such as an antibody binding to an Ig domain of IGSF11-ECD, as well as certain related aspects including detection, diagnostic and screening methods.
