  • Patent number: 7614644
    Abstract: A housing for acceptance of an airbag module for a motor vehicle includes at least two side walls located opposite one another formed to be capable of deformation to different extents. The side walls are more easily capable of deformation and exhibit a generally flat area section which can be deformed in the direction of the housing floor if acted upon by force, and which remain stable in shape in the case of tensile force applied in a direction generally away from the housing floor.

  • Publication number: 20070290491
    Abstract: The invention relates to a housing (1) for acceptance of an airbag module for a motor vehicle, in which at least two side walls (2, 3) located opposite one another are formed so as to be capable of deformation to different extents. In order to fulfil the task set, this housing is characterised by the fact that the side wall which is more easily capable of deformation (3) exhibits a basically flat area section (4) which can be deformed in the direction of housing floor (5) if acted upon by force (F), and which remains stable in shape in case of pull force applied in a direction basically away from housing floor (5).

  • Publication number: 20030192074
    Abstract: Disclosed are isolated nucleic acid molecules which comprise an Mla nucleotide sequence derived from an Mla locus (e.g. Mla1, 6, 12) encoding an MLA polypeptide which is capable of recognising and activating a race specific defence response in a plant into which the nucleic acid is introduced and expressed, in response to challenge with a cognate Erysiphe graminis isolate. Also disclosed are novel methods for selecting such sequences based on the determination of an Mla (AT)n micro-satellite identified by the present inventors.
