Abstract: A system to attach seats, in particular rows of lightweight seats to the light gauge deck of a high passenger marine craft. Horizontal flanges of aluminum angles (23) form a T-shaped foot locking within cavity (35) of track (29) fixed to the deck. High tensile tie straps (27a, 27b) are held between the vertical webs of the angles (23) by pins (69). A tubular pedestal (25) has upper recesses (49) which mate with a box beam supporting the seats. Threaded studs (73)of the tie straps (27a, 27b) are bolted to the box beam so that inertial forces arising in the event of an impact of the craft will be uniformly distributed by the pedestal, tie straps (27a, 27b), and angles (23), to the track for dissipation over an extended length of track, thus reducing the effects of localized shear. On assembly of the system, the angles (23) need not to be slid along the track but may be inserted individually being later spaced apart by insertion of tie straps (27a, 27b) so as to laterally the cavity (35).

Abstract: Described herein are N-hydroxyurea compounds having the ability to inhibit the 5-lipoxygenase enzyme and having formula (I) and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The variables are described herein. These compounds are useful in the treatment or alleviation of inflammatory diseases, allergy and cardiovascular diseases in mammals and as the active ingredient in pharmaceutical compositions for treating such conditions.

Abstract: A hand tool comprising a housing 1 with a ratchet wheel 2 in one end of the housing 1 and a lever assembly mounted on the housing adjacent the other end of the housing. The lever assembly comprises two linkages 23,24 pivotably attached to a lever 21 and to a mounting bracket 25. A rod 5 is disposed axially in the housing 1. A link chain 6 and ratchet tooth 7 are connected to the other end of the rod 5 about the ratchet wheel 2. The lever 21 is attached to the end of the rod 5 to form a ball socket. When the lever 21 is squeezed, the end portion 22 of the lever 21 pulls the rod 5 substantially straight outwards from the housing 1 which pulls the link chain 6 and ratchet tooth 7 on the ratchet wheel 2 to rotate the ratchet wheel 2.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel N-hydroxyurea compound of chemical formula (I) wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each independently hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl; Ar is phenyl or mono-, di- or trisubstituted phenyl; A is a valence bond or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene chain, optionally having one double bond or one triple bond in the chain, and optionally having one or more C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl groups attached to the chain: X is oxygen or sulfur, n is an integer of 3 to 6; M is hydrogen, pharmaceutically acceptable cation or a metabolically cleavable group: and X and A may be attached at any available position on the ring. These compounds are useful for treatment or alleviation of inflammatory diseases, allergy and cardiovascular diseases in mammals and as the active ingredient in pharmaceutical compositions for treating such conditions.

Abstract: A shelf and light assembly having a self, a light module and a lens element. The light module is removably secured to the shelf by cooperating engaging structures on the shelf and the light module. The lens element is supported on one side by the light module and on an opposite side by the shelf. The lens element prevents the light module from becoming disengaged from the shelf.

Abstract: Apparatus for pulping, slicing and/or destoning fruit and the like comprising introducing the fruit into a rotating container provided with a plurality of radially extending tubular arms such that the fruit will be thrown outwardly along the arms to strike pulping blades extending across the arm, the pulped flesh of the fruit being thrown outwardly from the tubular arm while the stones are projected tangentally forwards by the blades which are disposed at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the arm within which they are mounted.
