Abstract: A composition is provided that will combine with natural proteins into a creamy, sticky substance that will slowly degrade when submersed in water within a temperature range of 45-85 ?F over a period of 15 to 30 minutes or longer or approximately 15-30 casts by the fisherman before replenishment is needed. The sticky aspect is measured by its ability to adhere to soft rubber, hard plastic, or metal lures. The timing of release is measured by release on first cast through the last cast, preferably gradually degrading by being a homogeneous form. The amount of release is measured by the maximum amount by % in weight that the formula will accept within desired results.

Abstract: A central locking system for a motor vehicle which has a number of actuators, each of which has a signal transmitter unit which sends data signals to a control unit as a function of current condition parameters of a monitored opening of the motor vehicle or as a function of externally input command signals, and the control unit generates control signals from these data signals, and final control elements of the central locking system, which bring about the locking and unlocking of the opening of the motor vehicle, are triggered by these control signals. According to the present invention, each actuator of the central locking system has a separate control unit to which the data signals of the signal transmitter unit of its actuator, as well as selected data signals of the signal transmitter units of the other actuators of the central locking system are sent.

Abstract: A drive bearing for a windscreen wiper system wherein two actuator rods for actuating two wiper arms are driven by a motor crank. The two bearings are concentrically nested one within the other thereby allowing the driving forces of the two rods to extend in one plane. Other features include the association of the individual bearing elements to the actuator elements, and the design of the bearing faces.

Abstract: An electrical device with a punched plate embedded in a plastic plate is described. The punched-out conductive contact elements are still interconnected prior to the embedding operation for ease of manipulation of the plate. The link of the conductive contact elements is a U-shaped tab which, prior to the embedding operation, stands roughly perpendicular on the conductive contact elements and is cut after the manufacture of the plastic plate. This cutting operation of the conductive contact elements is possible without holes in the plastic plate.
