Abstract: A Power Transfer Unit (PTU) has a housing with at least one side having an outer surface. One or more standoffs are provided at the at least one side of the housing and extend outward from the outer surface of the housing. A thermal deflector formed as a flat plate is attached to the standoffs at a predetermined distance from the outer surface of the housing. The flat plate deflects heat from nearby components, such as the catalytic converter and/or exhaust pipe, away from the PTU.

Abstract: The disclosure features amino lipids and compositions involving the same. Nanoparticle compositions include an amino lipid as well as additional lipids such as phospholipids, structural lipids, PEG lipids, or a combination thereof. Nanoparticle compositions further including therapeutic and/or prophylactic agents such as RNA are useful in the delivery of therapeutic and/or prophylactic agents to mammalian cells or organs to, for example, regulate polypeptide, protein, or gene expression.

Abstract: The invention related to polyribonucleotides comprising an open reading frame of linked nucleosides encoding a polypeptide of interest (e.g., a therapeutic polypeptide), isoforms thereof, functional fragments thereof, and fusion proteins comprising the polypeptide. In some embodiments, the open reading frame is sequence-optimized. In particular embodiments, the invention provides sequence-optimized polyribonucleotides comprising nucleotides encoding the sequence of the polypeptide of interest, or sequence having high sequence identity with those sequence optimized polyribonucleotides.

Abstract: The disclosed transmission shift fork has improved contact areas that engage a gear that is shifted into and out of engagement with the drive train. As a result of the improved contact areas the gear and the shift fork have a more stable alignment that reduces wear during shifting and avoids uneven wear of the parts. The shift fork has an elongated pin that is positioned inside of a biasing spring. The pin has a length that is greater than the length of a compressed biasing spring, which contributes to increased stability and reduced wear from linear movement.

Abstract: Apparatus for thermal transfer printing of an image from a thermal retransfer sheet onto an article, includes heating means (40, 42, 44, 46) adapted to supply heated gas at a variable flow rate. Also disclosed is a method of printing an image, and the resulting printed article.

Abstract: Apparatus for thermal transfer printing of an image from a thermal retransfer sheet onto an article, includes heating means adapted to supply a flow of heated gas for causing dye transfer, and oscillating vane means for directing the heated gas in a direction transverse to the direction of flow, for distributing the heated gas over article(s) during dye transfer. Also disclosed is a method of printing an image, and the resulting printed article.

Abstract: An adjustable archery bow lock for an archery bow with bow strings, or a limb with a cam or a pulley, includes a locking first frame with first and second rod receiving apertures there through. A lock mechanism is on the first frame with a moveable and securable locking index pin. A parallel second frame has first and second rods that are adapted to capture and immobilize the bow strings, or the cam or pulley with the limb. The rods pass through the receiving apertures. The second rod has a series of aligned indentations. The rods are secured to the first frame with the locking index pin secured into one of the indentations to prevent drawing or firing of the bow.
