  • Patent number: 10278542
    Abstract: A hand blender containing a blade arrangement for a domestic appliance for cutting and comminuting food containing a rotatable blade with a hub which lies at a center of rotation of the blade for receiving a shaft. The blade includes at least one cutter which extends radially and which has a cutting edge that lies on a front side in the rotational direction and defines a circular cutting zone when circulating. The blade also includes a milling rib which protrudes upwards from the blade in an axial direction and is oriented so as to produce a milling effect when circulating and defines a corresponding milling zone that extends from the hub to the cutting zone of the cutter.

  • Patent number: 10258200
    Abstract: An implement for stirring or comminuting, containing a drive motor arranged in a motor housing, a stem, in which a shaft connected to the drive motor in a rotationally rigid manner is mounted, and which is divided into an inner and an outer assembly, wherein the outer assembly has a shield at an end remote from the motor housing, and a working part surrounded by the shield, wherein the shaft is guided in an axially immovable manner in the inner assembly and the inner assembly is axially movable relative to the outer assembly. The working part is fixedly connected to the stem and is mounted in an axially immovable manner in the inner assembly, such that the working part can move in relation to the shield.

  • Patent number: 10065000
    Abstract: An assembly for a drug delivery device is provided, the assembly including a blocking element and a piston rod having an interaction feature adapted and arranged to mechanically cooperate with the blocking element. For delivering a dose of a drug, the piston rod is configured to be moved from an initial position to an end position with respect to the blocking element, wherein the interaction feature is provided along the path between the initial position and the end position. An operating noise is provided to the user when the interaction feature mechanically cooperates with the blocking element while moving the piston rod for dose delivery. The interaction feature is adapted for homogenizing the operating noise so as to prevent the operating noise from being interpreted by the user as signalling the end of the dose delivery operation. Furthermore, a drug delivery device is provided.

  • Patent number: 9336690
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cartridge for a drug delivery device comprising of a body of substantially cylindrical shape, a piston slidably disposed in the body along two opposite axial directions, along a distal and along a proximal direction, and at least one friction means operably engaged with the piston to generate a pre-defined friction force between the piston and an inside wall of the body, when the piston is displaced relative to the body, wherein in response to an axial displacement of the piston relative to the body in distal direction and in proximal direction, the at least one friction means is adapted to generate respective proximal and distal friction forces that are different in magnitude.
