Abstract: A container assembly for storing or transporting items, such as food, medicines, electronics, toys, cash, etc., in an organized and secure manner, may include a first body portion and a second body portion forming a main body of the container and defining a container interior. The container interior may be sized and configured to receive and contain items. A plurality of clip fasteners may be provided on the first body portion and the second body portion for securing the second body portion to the first body portion. The container assembly may include a container door, which may be opened and closed to respectively allow or prevent access to the container interior. At least one container securing feature may be provided on the first body portion and/or the second body portion for securing the container assembly in a transport vehicle or a refrigerator, freezer, cooler or other storage receptacle or facility.

Abstract: A displaceable component includes a body having an axis and arranged for movement in at least one of an axial direction or a rotary direction about the axis. A position-defining element is fixed to the body and substantially comprising a magnetised elastomer. The position-defining element is arranged to be sensed by a sensor to determine at least one of an axial position, a rotary position or a rotary speed of the body.

Abstract: A tacker for a fastener, with which a tacking plunger is drivable by a drive unit and expels the fastener via a muzzle tool, with a switch device comprising a switch plunger, for actuating the drive unit which has a pivotably mounted release lever for actuating the switch plunger, with a contact feeler which can be actuated on placing onto a subject, which is movably mounted on the muzzle tool and which is pretensioned by a spring into the idle position in which it protrudes beyond the muzzle tool, and with a safety device which is arranged between the contact feeler and the switch device and which has a transmission device, for preventing a release of the drive unit when the contact feeler is in its idle position, said safety device comprising a slide element which is movably mounted on the side of the release lever directed towards the switch plunger and which is coupled to the transmission device and is movable with the release lever relative to the transmission device so that in the idle position of the c

Abstract: The invention relates to a driving tool for fastener elements, wherein a tool casing includes a valve cavity of a main valve closed by a casing cover, a valve piston being sealingly and slidingly mounted coaxially within the valve cavity about a work cylinder, the valve piston when in a lower position sealingly engaging upon an upper edge of the work cylinder so as to close an inlet passage communicating with a pressure air source and opening into an upper work space of the work cylinder, and the valve piston when in an upper position closing an outlet passage, which communicates with the work space via a throughbore of the valve piston, by sealingly engaging a valve seat element, the valve piston having a lower work surface which is continuously subjected to pressure of the pressure air source, and an upper work surface adapted to be selectively subjected to atmospheric pressure or pressure of the pressure air source by a control valve, the improvement of which is characterized by the valve piston having axi

Abstract: The invention relates to a driving tool for fastener elements, comprising a casing (1), a working cylinder (3) located in the said casing, and a main valve coaxially mounted atop the said working cylinder, the said main valve comprising a valve chamber (22) located in the said casing (1) and closed by a cap (24), the said main valve further comprising a valve piston (25) which is sealingly and slidably guided in the said valve chamber (22), wherein the valve piston has a lower position in which an inlet passage connected to a source of compressed air is closed with respect to the upper working chamber of the said working cylinder and which valve piston has an upper position in which an outlet passage (43,47,48) which is connected to the working chamber via a throughbore (29,30) of the valve piston is closed by sealingly engaging a valve seat element (34), wherein the valve piston further includes a lower surface area which is continuously subjected to the pressure of the source of compressed air and a further
