20120031939 | ROOF RACK ASSEMBLY WITH INTEGRATED LIGHTING - A roof rack assembly for a vehicle having a roof is presented here. The roof rack assembly includes a first stanchion for structural attachment to the roof, a second stanchion for structural attachment to the roof, and a bar coupled between, and held above the roof by, the first stanchion and the second stanchion. The bar has a securing feature integrally formed therein, which holds an electric powered light-emitting component. Accordingly, the roof rack assembly employs a roof rack bar having a light-emitting element integrated therein. | 02-09-2012 |
20130229820 | VEHICLE BODY SIDE LIGHTING - A lighting system for an exterior panel of a vehicle includes a molding configured to be affixed to the exterior panel. The molding includes a feature configured to retain a light string and fix the light string relative to the molding. The light string is configured to be connected to an electric system of the vehicle and be activated to illuminate an area surrounding the exterior panel is illuminated. A vehicle employing the lighting system is also disclosed. | 09-05-2013 |

20090306777 | APPARATUS FOR FIXING A LIGAMENT - The invention relates to an apparatus for fixing a ligament, which comprises a bone-anchoring element having a proximal end and a distal end which has a bore running in the longitudinal direction, and which comprises a clamping sleeve having a proximal end and a distal end, which clamping sleeve can be accommodated in the bore. The clamping sleeve is radially expandable, with the result that the ligament can be fixed between the clamping sleeve and the bore of the bone-anchoring element. | 12-10-2009 |
20130101960 | CONNECTION OF A PROSTHESIS STRUCTURE WITH AN IMPLANT STRUCTURE - A connection device for connecting a prosthesis structure with an implant structure comprises a holding shell and a retention insert. The retention insert comprises an end side and a substantially ring-shaped retention rim projecting therefrom. The holding shell comprises an end side and a substantially ring-shaped holding rim projecting therefrom. The holding rim and the end side of the holding shell form a retainer in which the retention insert can be arranged such that an outer surface of the retention rim is adjacent to an inner surface of the holding rim. Moreover, the outer surface of the retention rim is at least partly spaced from and adjacent to the inner surface of the holding rim when the retention insert is arranged in the retainer of the holding shell and when essentially no radial forces are acting on the holding rim and on the retention rim. In that the adjacent outer surface of the retention rim and inner surface of the holding rim are at least partly not contacting each other but are spaced from each other when essentially no radial forces are acting on the holding rim and on the retention rim, it can, i.a., be achieved that the retention insert is connected relatively loosely with the holding shell when the connection device has not yet been placed on the implant structure. This loose connection can allow the retention insert to be relatively easily removed from the holding shell and inserted in the holding shell without having to be substantially deformed or strained in any other way. Thus, it is possible to insert and remove the retention insert gently, which can improve the flexibility and lifetime of the connection device. | 04-25-2013 |
