  • Patent number: 9623200
    Abstract: A reservoir for a nebulizer, and a nebulizer with a reservoir in which, to avoid undesirable rises in pressure, a fluid chamber of the reservoir is pre-collapsed and filled with an initial amount of fluid which is less than the maximum volume of the fluid chamber. Preferably, before being filled, the fluid chamber is compressed and/or expanded by means of gas to a defined volume which is less than the maximum volume of the fluid chamber.

  • Patent number: 9132467
    Abstract: In a method of producing a connection between the neck area of a light metal cartridge, particularly an aluminium cartridge, and a plastic container inserted therein, by a drawing process that forms a connection area and applies areas of the wall of the light metal cartridge against the plastic container using a rotating main body (15) of a drawing tool (2), said main body supporting at least one profiled drawing roller (3) which can rotate about a rotation axis (5) in order to delimit a tool working opening (1), wherein the drawing roller (3) lies against the outer surface of the light metal cartridge, the rotation axis (5) of the drawing roller (3) is arranged at a tool-internal end area of a lever (9) arranged transversely relative to the longitudinal axis (16) of the drawing tool (2), said lever being supported at its opposite tool-external end area on the drawing tool (2) so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis (11) in a force-controlled manner and so as to apply the drawing roller (3) against the outer

  • Patent number: 8677793
    Abstract: A shaping tool as depicted in exemplary FIG. 3 comprising a rotatable base member having at least one profiled bending roller (13) which is mounted on a circular track and is rotatable about a rotation axis. The bending roller (13) arranged on a radially movable slide (11) is movable from a position defining a maximum working aperture for the tool, by means of a spring-loaded lever (9) which has an axial configuration, into a position defining a minimum working aperture for the tool.
