Abstract: Imidazole derivatives of Formula I ##STR1## wherein AR.sub.1 and AR.sub.2 each independently represent phenyl optionally substituted by halogen atoms, alkyl groups, or alkoxy groups,R.sub.1 is pyrrolyl, indolyl, imidazolyl, or thiazolyl, all of which are optionally substituted by lower alkyl, free or esterified carboxy or carboxyalkyl groups, benzyl, or benezenesulfonyl; and R.sub.2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, haloalkyl, or a methylene, dimethylene, trimethylene, or tetramethylene group linked to the nitrogen atom of R.sub.1,and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof with acids, and when R.sub.1 is substituted by carboxy, also the physiologically acceptable salts thereof with bases,are pharmacologically effective compounds, e.g., as antiinflammatories.

Abstract: A thread guide construction for use in the production of twisted threads. The thread guide is composed of a plate arranged essentially horizontally and having at least three guide eyes arranged symmetrically to one another for a separate guiding of the threads which are to be twisted. A separating member is secured to the underside of the plate between and symmetrical to the guide eyes. The separating member has a width which is less than the spacing between the guide eyes and has a surface thereon converging from the plate toward a terminal location spaced from the plate. The surface is opposed to each of the guide eyes so that when a pulling force is applied to the twisted threads during a twisting operation pulling same away from the plate, the threads are normally free of engagement with the separating member and are in engagement with the surface during a time when the pulling force has been substantially reduced.
