Disclosed are an apparatus for an interspinous fixation and/or distraction of vertebrae and a methodology for minimally invasive implantation of the apparatus in the spine of a patient. The apparatus corresponds to a pair of teardrop shaped lateral wing elements spaced apart by a central core element that may be selectively sized during the implantation process. The wings and central core are held together by a single threaded bolt and locking nut configuration resulting in a simple structure that may be easily implanted with minimal patient discomfort.

A landscape care device has a first care tool embodied as a mowing device, a sweeping broom, or the like, and at least one second care tool in the form of a spring tine rake arranged in front of the first care tool and acting simultaneously or with time shift relative to the first care tool. A carriage with a front axle is provided, wherein only the spring tine rake is effective in front of the front axle of the carriage. The spring tine rake has spring tines and the spring line rake is designed such that the spring tines are effective by a substantially straight push movement exerted on the spring tine rake.

A heat-sensitive recording sheet is formed as a laminate and includes at least a first and a second web material. The first web material has a substrate of paper with a watermark and the second web material has at least a substrate and a heat-sensitive recording layer.

The invention relates to an intelligent control system for music fountains. The intelligent control system is mainly characterized in that the system comprises a DMX512 controller, an ambient lighting subsystem, a stage light subsystem, an underwater light subsystem, a water spray subsystem, an audio and video playing server, a sound amplification subsystem, a large screen subsystem and external control equipment; the DMX512 controller is connected with the ambient lighting subsystem, the stage light subsystem, the underwater light subsystem, the water spray subsystem and the audio and video playing server by a DXM512 communication protocol; the audio and video playing server is connected with the sound amplification subsystem and the large screen subsystem; and the audio and video playing server is connected with the external control equipment and achieves a control function. All the subsystems can be controlled in a unified way by one piece of external control equipment. The problem on how to intelligentize music fountain square performance is solved. The operation cost of music fountain show squares is greatly reduced, and high-speed synchronous operation of the subsystems is realized.

The invention relates to a device for opening an ampoule (3), said device comprising a substantially hollow cylindrical housing (11) having an interior for accommodating an ampoule (3). The device also comprises a rotary element (12) having a proximal section (121), to which a break-off section (124) extending in the distal direction is connected. The break-off section (124) is flexible in the radial direction and/or is pivotably connected to the proximal section (121) in the radial direction. The rotary element (12) can be rotated relative to the housing (11) about the longitudinal axis in an actuating direction from an initial position to an intermediate position. In the area of the side wall (111), the housing (11) has a first guiding structure (119), which is designed in such a way that the first guiding structure presses the break-off section (124) inward during a rotation from the initial position to the intermediate position so that the break-off section (124) exerts a radial shear force on the ampoule head (33) of an ampoule (3) accommodated in the interior in order to break the ampoule head (33) off of the ampoule body (31).

A method for electrodeposition of bronzes, with which the substrate to be coated is plated in an acid electrolyte that contains at least tin and copper ions, an alkylsulfonic acid and a wetting agent, and the preparation of such an electrolyte.

A crystal of a dipeptidyl peptidase IV; a three-dimensional structural coordinate of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV; a method for obtaining a three-dimensional coordinate of a homolog protein of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV; a method for obtaining a three-dimensional structural coordinate of a crystal of a complex of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV and a effector of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV; a method for identifying pharmacophore of the effector of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV; a method for designing, identifying, evaluating or searching; the effector; and a program and a medium therefor for use of the three-dimensional structural coordinate.

A device for ventilating and cooling the interior of a vehicle with at least one air guide channel (7) having air inlet openings (8) located in the rear of a solar cell equipped vehicle roof (5a, 5b), the air guide channel (7) being restricted to the rear area (3) of the vehicle roof (5a, 5b) and having at least one fan (15) for taking in outside air (10) and at least one coolng element (14) for cooling the air taken in. The bottom of the air guide channel (7) is formed by a first section (12) of a roof portion (5b) which extends from the vehicle rear toward the vehicle front (3, 1) and the top of the air guide channel (7) is formed by a second section (13) of a roof portion (5a) which extends from the vehicle front toward the vehicle rear (1, 3).

A method for protecting and restraining a passenger on a passenger seat of a vehicle in case of an accident, with the aid of at least one restraint element of a protection and restraint device, an evaluation and control unit for a protection and restraint device for carrying out the method, a protection and restraint device for protecting a passenger having such an evaluation and control unit, as well as a corresponding computer program and computer program product for carrying out the method are described. A positioning applied force is generated as a function of an ascertained current driving situation, the applied force accelerating the passenger away from a vehicle side structure in the direction of the middle of the vehicle if a predefined precrash situation is detected.

A built-in domestic appliance including a hinge device that hinges a door to a furniture body of the built-in domestic appliance, with the hinge device being designed to implement an opening and closing movement of the door, during which a gap is formed between one edge of the door and a front of a second furniture body adjacent to the furniture body of the built-in domestic appliance, a sensor device that monitors the gap for a presence of a foreign body, and a blocking device that blocks the hinge device in the presence of the foreign body detected by the sensor device in a direction of movement of the door which would result in a further reduction of the gap.

Aircraft door (1) including an opening (4), a frame (3), a hinge structure (5) and a circular translation guide device designed to maintain the orientation of the opening (4) during the opening or closing thereof. The hinge structure (5) is connected to the opening (4) by a lifting arm (8) allowing a lifting movement of the opening (4) relative to the hinge structure (5). The circular translation guide device includes a single link (11) connected to the frame (3) by one of the ends thereof and by the other of the ends thereof to a lever (13) which is attached to the hinge structure (5).
