Abstract: The invention relates to a plaster containing an active agent, comprising at least one cover membrane and an active membrane which is based on a skin-compatible matrix containing a molecular sieve which is loaded with at least one active agent. The molecular sieve/active agent adduct releases the active agent when the active membrane comes into contact with the skin, in conjunction with the transpired water of the skin. The inventive plaster is characterised in that the molecular sieve/active agent adduct also contains water of crystallisation, to the extent that the molecular sieve is partially hydrated compared to a sufficient basic molar quantity (m) of water of crystallisation, the molecular sieve with the reduced molar quantity (m?) of water of crystallisation being loaded with the active agent (Z, Z1, Z2) so that when the active membrane comes into contact with the skin, water is absorbed and the active agent is desorbed, whereupon the water of crystallisation content of the molecular sieve increases.

Abstract: A medical cushion (1), in particular an anti-decubitus cushion, is in particular multicellular and is distinguished in that the cushion is equipped, at least in the area where skin contact (6) occurs, with an active membrane (3) based on a skin-compatible matrix (4) into which a molecular sieve is mixed. This molecular sieve is charged with at least one active substance (Z, Z1, Z2), and the molecular sieve/active substance adduct (5) releases the active substance when the active membrane comes into skin contact (6) in conjunction with the transpiration of the skin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pneumatic shock-absorber equipped with a height sensor which is to be mounted onto a rail vehicle. The aim of the invention is to prevent components of the rail vehicle, such as supports for the superstructure and/or an additional volume of pressure formed by a cradle, from being drilled or modified in another way in order to create the installation space for the height sensor. The inventive pneumatic shock-absorber is characterized in that an upper extension arm and a lower extension arm extend laterally from the upper support plate and lower mounting plate respectively and that the height sensor is positioned between the two extension arms.
