Filed:

Mar 7, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/519932

Inventors:

Dan Noll - Commerce Township MI
Christopher Cooper - Hoover AL

Assignee:

Action Machinery Company of Alabama, Inc. - Helena AL

International Classification:

B25D 908

US Classification:

173 90, 173211, 173212, 1731621

Abstract:

A hand held-type apparatus for fracturing a gate or riser from a casting subsequent to a foundry pouring process. The apparatus operates off of a driven piston assembly, which upon a stroke of such causes a hammer end of the piston assembly to extend from the apparatus and contact the casting, thereby causing the fracturing of the gate or riser from the casting. The apparatus also includes an assembly for decelerating the driven piston assembly upon a stroke of such, as well as an apparatus for isolating the linear motion of the apparatus from the operator thereof.

296188, 29619009, 296205, 296208, 296 70, 298972, 527316

Abstract:

A molded article, e. g. , a cross car beam ( ), which includes a rigid support (a) having a plurality of perforations, e. g. , rigid support ( ), and a rigid hollow thermoplastic member (b), e. g. , an air duct ( ), attached thereto is described. A portion of the thermoplastic material of rigid hollow member (b) extends through at least some of the perforations of rigid support (a), embedding the edges of the perforations therein. The thermoplastic material extending through the perforations forms an attachment element, e. g. , an attachment head ( ), that serves to fixedly attach rigid hollow member (b) to rigid support (a). Also described is a method of preparing the molded article of the present invention, in which the rigid hollow member (b) is fixedly attached to the rigid support (a) during the blow mold fabrication of rigid hollow member (b).

International Classification:

B62D 2508

US Classification:

296208, 296 70, 296901, 454 69

Abstract:

A molded cross vehicle beam which includes a hollow blow molded thermoplastic rigid member that is integrally attached to a rigid support, e. g. , a U-shaped metal plate, and at least one attachment element, is described. The rigid support ( ) has a first surface, a second surface and a plurality of perforations having edges. The attachment element(s) ( ) have a first surface, a second surface and a plurality of perforations having edges. The attachment element provides a manner of attaching the molded cross vehicle beam to a separate structure (e. g. , the A-pillars of an automobile). A thermoplastic parison precursor of the hollow rigid thermoplastic member ( ) is blow molded against the first surfaces of the rigid support ( ) and the attachment element ( ). Portions of the thermoplastic parison extend through perforations in each of the rigid support ( ) and the attachment element ( ), thereby attaching the hollow thermoplastic rigid member ( ) to the rigid support ( ) and the attachment element ( ). The present invention also relates to a process by which the molded cross vehicle beam is prepared.

Abstract:

The invention provides compounds of formula 1 wherein R , R , and R are as defined, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Compounds of formula 1 are indicated to have activity inhibiting cdk5, cdk2, and GSK-3. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods comprising compounds of formula 1 for treating diseases and conditions comprising abnormal cell growth, such as cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases and conditions and those affected by dopamine neurotransmission are described. Also described are pharmaceutical compositions and methods comprising compounds of formula 1 for treating male fertility and sperm motility; diabetes mellitus; impaired glucose tolerance; metabolic syndrome or syndrome X; polycystic ovary syndrome; adipogenesis and obesity; myogenesis and frailty, for example age-related decline in physical performance; acute sarcopenia, for example muscle atrophy and/or cachexia associated with burns, bed rest, limb immobilization, or major thoracic, abdominal, and/or orthopedic surgery; sepsis; hair loss, hair thinning, and balding; and immunodeficiency.

US Classification:

29745214, 29745265, 297DIG 2

Abstract:

A molded article comprising (a) a rigid support, e. g. , a rigid seat support ( ), having a plurality of perforations, and (b) a molded flexible hollow thermoplastic member ( ), e. g. , a flexible thermoplastic seat cushion, fixedly attached thereto is described. A portion of the flexible hollow member (b) extends through at least some of the perforations of the rigid support (a), embedding the edges of the perforations therein. The flexible material extending through the perforations forms an attachment element, e. g. , an attachment head, that serves to fixedly attach the flexible hollow member (b) to the rigid support (a). Also described is a method of preparing the molded article of the present invention, in which the flexible hollow member (b) is fixedly attached to the rigid support (a) during the blow molding formation of hollow member (b).

US Classification:

264132, 264134, 4251261

Abstract:

A method of preparing a molded article by means of an in-mold decoration process, is described. The method includes, providing a laminate () of a plurality of separate releasable thermoplastic labels () superposed over a carrier film (). A decoration () is applied in-line to the exposed second surface () of the labels (), thereby forming a decorated laminate (). The decorated laminate () is forwarded and indexed into a mold () such that the exposed first surface () of the carrier film () abuts at least a portion of the interior surface of the mold, and the decorated second surface () of the label () faces the interior space of the mold. Plastic material (e. g. , thermoplastic material) is injected into the mold against the decorated surface of the label, thus forming a molded article. The carrier film () is then separated from the molded article. At least a portion of the surface of the molded article prepared in accordance with the present method is defined by the first surface () of at least one label.
