  • Publication number: 20230251027
    Abstract: An interior compartment or container for a domestic refrigeration appliance has a side wall on which an elongate bearing rib for a bearing panel is integrated. The bearing rib extends in the depthwise direction of the interior compartment and extends over at least half the depth of the side wall. The bearing rib has an upper bearing side, which merges with the side wall by way of a first rounding and merges with an underside of the bearing rib by way of a second rounding, which is located opposite the first as seen in the widthwise direction. The underside merges at its lower end with the side wall. In a cross section of the bearing rib taken in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, a vertical-dimension ratio, measured in the heightwise direction, between an underside vertical dimension and an upper-side vertical dimension is between 3.5 and 4.5.

  • Patent number: 8696652
    Abstract: A light therapy device for applying an image produced from a therapeutically effective aqueous liquid, is provided. The device includes a slide, prepared by Kirlian and/or corona discharge photography, of a sample of an aqueous liquid removed from a liquid-retaining body and mixed with ethanol, and a projection device with a light device which emits visible light and is designed to project the slide onto an object, in particular a living being, in such a way that a sample of the liquid contained in a container which is permeable to and can be irradiated by the visible light is arranged in a light path between a unit, which holds the slide, of the projection device and the object.
