Composite webs having one or more elastic composite structures located on a substrate, methods of manufacturing the composite webs, and articles including the elastic composite structures and substrates are disclosed. The elastic composite structures may preferably include one or more elastic components attached to anchors at two or more locations, wherein the anchors are themselves attached to the substrate. The anchors may preferably be constructed of inelastic polymeric material (and / or exhibit limited to no elasticity in use) and the elastic components may preferably be constructed of elastomeric polymeric material.

A scaffold having islet cells or small islet cell clusters attached thereto in a multilayer, and a micro-mold having divots for culturing islets, wherein islet formation is influenced by the shape and dimensions of the divots are disclosed.

The present invention provides a method of mounting a fairing to a roof of a vehicle and a method of manufacturing a mounting frame for mounting a fairing to a roof of a vehicle. The mounting frame has a lower portion for mounting to the roof of the vehicle and an upper portion for securing the fairing. The mounting frame is formed by determining a contour of the mounting surface, creating a mould for moulding the lower portion of the mounting frame having a bottom edge configured generally complementary to the contour of at least a portion of the mounting surface, and moulding an upper portion affixed to the lower portion and having an outer face configured generally complementary to an interior surface of the fairing.

An integral nail / disk structure that eliminates the need of having any exposed nails associated with a shingled roof having a color matching body member integrally formed with a roofing nail. Another embodiment including a fastener such as a nail or screw having an enlarged head and an associated gasket member for fastening sheet metal to a roof structure. The gasket member has a sealant on both of its top and bottom surfaces so as to adhere both to the underside of the enlarged head portion of the nail or screw, and to the sheet metal to create a waterproof seal. Still another embodiment includes an enlarged cap member associated with a gasket member attached to its underside portion wherein the cap / gasket member can be attached over a fastener hole in a roof, or over a faulty roofing nail or screw in lieu of caulking techniques usually used to cure leaks where the faulty fastener attaches sheet metal to a roofing structure.

A method and an apparatus for preparing and culturing cells, particularly bone marrow stromal cells. The method includes the steps of placing an oxygenator and a scaffold in a container, such as a syringe, withdrawing bone marrow stromal cells with the syringe, evenly distributing the cells on the scaffold, connecting the syringe with a reservoir with a medium to enrich the syringe with the medium, and promoting the medium level movement in the syringe to culture bone marrow stromal cells.

A position adjustable support assembly is convertible to and from a tool case, to allow transport with a plurality of articles attached thereto. A segmented position adjustable support assembly has a center assembly and a left and right assembly. The left and right assemblies are rotatable about the center assembly and the vertical supports of the center, left and right assemblies can be retained in base and top-receivers of a tool case. Retainers may secure the segmented assembly to the base and top. This allows a user to mount the segmented assembly in a first work location, and then convert the segmented assembly to a tool case for transport to a second work location.

Chip card inlay for contact-activated and contactlessly activated chip cards, having a planar substrate layer made of a non-conductive plastics material, on which an antenna having, at its end, planar conductive pads for attaching a chip is fastened, wherein the conductive pads are formed from a textile fabric having thread crossings, and on each top side of the textile fabric an electrically conductive contact zone is provided which has a three-dimensionally conductive terminal pad structure with weave points of the textile fabric as topographical contact zone elevations.

Provided is a technique for improving product attachment. In a semiconductor device, the following expression is satisfied by an angle A formed by an imaginary line connecting two attachment holes together and an imaginary line connecting together a lowest point of one of two projections positioned in a surrounding portion of one of the two attachment holes and a contact point between a bulge and a heat sink, with a screw fastened to the heat sink through the one attachment hole, where M represents a vertical direction between the lower end of a body and the lower end of a case, where W represents a bulge amount of the bulge, where T represents a height of the projection, where L represents a horizontal distance from the outer peripheral end of the case to the outer peripheral end of the heat dissipation plate: 0<A<arctan((M+W−T) / L).
