A sensor guard, for protecting a sensor of a vehicle. The sensor guard comprises a blade movable to sweep through a line-of-sight of the sensor when the sensor is arranged to be protected by the sensor guard, an extension of the blade in a direction parallel to the line-of-sight when the blade sweeps through the line-of sight being greater than an extension of the blade in a direction of movement of the blade when the blade sweeps through the line-of sight; and an actuator arranged and configured to move the blade to repeatedly sweep through the line-of-sight of the sensor when the sensor is arranged to be protected by the sensor guard.

Techniques for providing a sensor guard

A method for a vehicle comprising at least one wheel suspension with at least one damper, wherein the at least one damper is such that it can adjust its damping resistance between a first damping mode and at least a second damping mode, wherein the second damping mode presents a larger damping resistance than a damping resistance of the first damping mode. The method comprises the steps: S1) identifying if the vehicle is in a first situation during driving of said vehicle which may lead to a subsequent impact force (F) on the at least one wheel suspension which is of a magnitude such that the at least one damper, when in its first damping mode, will reach a position where no further damping can be performed; and, if this is the case, S2) adjusting the damping resistance from the first damping mode to the at least second damping mode.

The invention provides monomeric and oligomeric amyloid beta peptide isomers that are resistant towards fibrillogenesis and their use as screening reagents or antigens in methods and pharmaceutical preparations for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other conditions related to protein misfolding. The invention further provides transgenic animals expressing modified amyloid precursor proteins or amyloid beta peptides.

Stable amyloid beta monomers and oligomers

Method of immunization for reducing toxic damaged caused by oligomeric form of the amyloid-beta protein with stable amyloid beta monomers and oligomers

The invention provides monomeric and oligomeric amyloid beta peptide isomers that are resistant towards fibrillogenesis and their use as screening reagents or antigens in methods and pharmaceutical preparations for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other conditions related to protein misfolding. The alanines at positions 21 and 30, in wild type amyloid beta peptide amino acid sequence, are according to the invention replaced by cysteins, which results in an intra molecular disulphide bond. The invention further provides transgenic animals expressing modified amyloid precursor proteins or amyloid beta peptides.

A vehicle towing device with a first extremity comprising a towing member, a second extremity comprising an attachment arrangement, and an elongated part extending there between is provided. The elongated part comprises a first portion and a second portion. The second portion has a conical outer contact surface extending peripherally from the first portion towards the attachment arrangement. The conical contact surface has a first cone radius at an end of the second portion facing the first portion, and a second cone radius at an end of the second portion facing the attachment arrangement. The first cone radius is larger than the second cone radius, and a longitudinal extension of the second portion exceeds the second cone radius.

The present invention relates to antibodies and antibody fragments specific for the toxic prefibrillar aggregates of amyloid-beta peptides, and uses thereof, for example in the diagnosis and treatment of amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. The invention further provides methods for the identification of compounds potentially useful for the treatment of an amyloid disease, such as Alzheimer's disease.

Anti oligomer antibodies and uses thereof

A steering wheel assembly having an armature, a hub, a wheel rim skeleton, and at least one spoke connecting the hub with the wheel rim skeleton. The assembly may include a rim interface component attachable to the wheel rim skeleton. The assembly may further include an insert component, which is attachable to the wheel rim skeleton and/or the hub, and the rim interface component and the insert component being exchangeable independently of each other.
