  • TRANSPARENT BALLISTIC-RESISTANT SHIELD AND MOUNTING THEREFOR
    Publication number: 20240118056
    Abstract: A shield (3) is mounted in the driver's side window frame (7) of a vehicle by a lower support (5) containing a flat spring (49) which releasably pushes the shield against the upper window frame. A stand-off (17, 18) at the upper end of the shield spaces other portions the upper edge of the shield from the window frame. A shield handgrip (9) is angled 45° with respect to a lower edge of the shield, to permit the shield to be carried with one apex of the shield up.

  • Color photographic element containing coupler useful for forming neutral silver-based image
    Patent number: 6416943
    Abstract: The invention provides a color photographic element suitable for forming both a colored dye image and a neutral silver-based image, comprising a support bearing at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a coupler capable of forming a colored dye upon development, and bearing a further light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a coupler which is capable of releasing a thiovinyl group upon development that is capable of reacting to form a neutral silver-based image.
