The locks include two or more of the following - wheel hub locks (3c, 3g), pedal axle lock (3e), ring locks (3a) for locking the front and/or back wheel, steering lock (3b), chain lock, bracket lock or frame lock (3f) for securing the bicycle to a fixed object (20) such as a post, tree or fence.

The invention relates to the method for coating a workpiece (1), where the surface of the workpiece is squirted with a coating substance (2) such as a hard varnish, after which the workpiece is brought to rotate so as to the coating substance spreads (3) equally on the surface of a workpiece due to the centrifugal force. The coating substance (2) is squirted on the surface of the workpiece (1) in ...

This invention provides a novel class of androgen receptor targeting agents (ARTA). The agents define a new subclass of compounds which are tissue-selective androgen receptor modulators (SARM), which are useful for oral testosterone replacement therapy, male contraception, maintaining sexual desire in women, treating prostate cancer and imaging prostate cancer. These agents have an unexpected in-v...

The invention relates to a compressible, powdery sugar composition having an apparent density of more than 0.5, especially 0.6 and approximately 0.8, preferably equal to 0.6, said composition consisting of hollow particles. The invention also relates to a method for preparing a compressible sugar solution, comprising a drying stage involving the atomization of an initial saccharose solution with a...

Novel sulfur-containing analogs of 1±,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 are provided. These analogs are synthesized in a convergent manner by joining A-ring and C,D ring fragments. Each analog with 1±,3²-substituent stereochemistry shows a pharmacologically desirable combination of high antiproliferative and high transcriptional activities in vitro and also low calcemic activity in vivo.

The shaft (2) is enclosed by a tube (3) and has a fastening at its end for attaching healing or sealing material for wounds or for a surgical instrument. The fastening consists of two U-shaped arms (6) of different lengths. The longer arm has a notch (7) into which fits a protuberance (8) on the appliance fixing the wound-healing or sealing material. The appliance for fixing the material consists ...

A computer method, apparatus and storage medium is provided for creating quantitative aesthetic graphics from data. The invention utilizes a graph algebra to construct graphs and visually or otherwise represents the graphs as a quantitative aesthetic graphic representation. To create the quantitative aesthetic graphics from data, the data is indexed to form a data set. Thereafter, the data is conv...

The electrical heating is provided by an electrically-conductive surface coating (3) applied to the glass panel, supplied with an electrical voltage via associated terminal electrodes (9,10) and an electrically-conductive partial surface (5T) connected to earth, which is electrically insulated from the electrically-conductive surface coating.
