Abstract: A hydraulic drive system for the pitch cylinders (4A, 4B) of a bulldozer blade apparatus can include (a) main hydraulic pumps (30A, 30B) and an assistant hydraulic pump (31) to make up the assistant hydraulic circuit, (b) variable displacement hydraulic pumps (21A, 21B), or (c) fixed displacement hydraulic pumps (30A, 30B) and a plurality of solenoid selector valves such that the pitch cylinders can be connected in series. The assistant hydraulic pump (31) is connectable to delivery lines of the main hydraulic pumps through an assistant solenoid selector valve (32) which is controlled by an external signal. The blade (10) can be formed so that a line (14) tangential to the lower edge of the curved panel of the blade is inclined rearwardly with respect to the front face (13) of the blade edge member (12). Earth-moving work can be performed by inclining the blade (10) rearwardly by an angle (.theta..sub.

Abstract: A method for the treatment of dementia and cerebrovascular disorders and for inhibiting platelet aggregation in patients in need thereof comprising the step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of a 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-1-phenylphthalane of the general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each are selected from the group consisting of halogen, trifluoromethyl, cyano and R--CO--, wherein R is an alkyl radical, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salt thereof, is described.

Abstract: Novel N-substituted amino acid imide derivatives are disclosed. The compounds are represented by formula (I): ##STR1## wherein n represents an integer of 0 to 5, and X and Y, which may be the same or different, represent a methylene group or a sulfur atom, provided that not both X and Y are methylene groups at the same time. The compounds are useful as a medicine for treating or preventing cerebral circulation disorder, cerebral metabolism disorder, or memory disturbance.
