Patent number: 8646211Abstract: A sliding door system includes at least one sliding door having an upper and lower sliding-door mount, as well as an upper and lower guide rail for displaceably receiving the upper and lower sliding-door mount, respectively. The guide rails extend parallel to each other and each have a clear inner width that is at least twice as large as the thickness of the sliding door. The upper and lower sliding-door mounts are each at most half as wide as the clear inner width of each guide rail, allowing moving the sliding door into recessed and lifted-out positions, each constituting a stable state. By overcoming a resistance force, the sliding door can be moved between stable states. The sliding door system is lightweight and robust, and enables sliding doors to be displaced freely without a particular sliding door being assigned in a fixed manner to a particular opening to be covered.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2012Date of Patent: February 11, 2014Assignee: Airbus Operations GmbHInventors: Peter Rosenbeck-Mortensen, Thomas Lund, Joyce Tan, Hans Henrik Jochumsen

Publication number: 20100305516Abstract: Side-ported microneedles are produced from a suitably shaped microneedle mould (40). A microneedle mould base (32) is made with a number of microneedle mould recesses (30) in it. One surface of the microneedle mould base (32) is coated with a seed layer (34). The microneedle mould base (32) contains two microneedle mould sheets (24, 26), which are separated to gain access to an internal surface of one of the microneedle mould sheets (24, 26). Side-port forming channels (38) are formed on one of the internal surfaces, intersecting with the recesses (30) within the relevant microneedle mould sheet (24). The two microneedle mould sheets (24, 26) are placed back together and joined together as a unitary microneedle mould (40). The microneedles are formed in the recesses (30) by depositing a microneedle layer (44) therein and on the surface with the seed layer (34).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2004Publication date: December 2, 2010Inventors: Yuan Xu, Minghua Wang, Mei Ma Chen, Zhongli Li, Chee Yen Lim, Pei Ying Joyce Tan
