20110215942 | LADDER POSITION INDICATOR LIGHT MODULE - A flasher module, installable on a ladder, incorporates multiple high-intensity light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which are coupled to an electro-chemical power source (battery or single cell). The LEDs may be wired for a continuous “ON” condition, but are preferably connected to flasher circuitry. For maximum visible intensity, the flasher circuitry is designed so that all LEDs flash simultaneously about one to two times per second. A first embodiment flasher module is sized to install within the uppermost portion of a ladder rail of C-shaped cross section. A second embodiment module, which provides a larger viewing angle, incorporates the LEDs within a bar that is mountable beneath the uppermost rung of the ladder. Either embodiment of the invention may be equipped with a gravity-actuated switch, which will turn on the flasher circuitry whenever the ladder is deployed at an angle greater than 45 degrees from horizontal. | 09-08-2011 |

20080236969 | HYDRAULIC CYLINDER LIMITER - A limiter bracket, for restricting the stroke of a hydraulic cylinder, is formed from a U-shaped member having a central base portion and two opposing sidewall. The base has a semi-circular retention slot extending from an off center position centrally located detent within the base. The opening of the slot is asymmetrically located at an off center position along an edge of the base so that the rod of a cylinder is both horizontally and vertically displaced during positioning within the limiter. Once the rod is located in the detent of the limiter, a pivot pin is inserted through a connector at the end of the rod and the aligned attachment holes in the sidewalls securing the limiter to the rod. The end of the cylinder body will contact the base of the limiter during retraction of the rod thus limiting the overall stroke of the cylinder. | 10-02-2008 |

20120283421 | METHODS AND REAGENTS FOR DECREASING CLINICAL REACTION TO ALLERGY - It has been determined that allergens, which are characterized by both humoral (IgE) and cellular (T-cell) binding sites, can be modified to be less allergenic by modifying the IgE binding sites. The IgE binding sites can be converted to non-IgE binding sites by altering as little as a single amino acid within the protein, preferably a hydrophobic residue towards the center of the IgE epitope, to eliminate IgE binding. Additionally or alternatively a modified allergen with reduced IgE binding may be prepared by disrupting one or more of the disulfide bonds that are present in the natural allergen. The disulfide bonds may be disrupted chemically, e.g., by reduction and alkylation or by mutating one or more cysteine residues present in the primary amino acid sequence of the natural allergen. In certain embodiments, modified allergens are prepared by both altering one or more linear IgE epitopes and disrupting one or more disulfide bonds of the natural allergen. In certain embodiments, the methods of the present invention allow allergens to be modified while retaining the ability of the protein to activate T-cells, and, in some embodiments by not significantly altering or decreasing IgG binding capacity. The Examples provided herein use peanut allergens to illustrate applications of the invention. | 11-08-2012 |
