Abstract: Provided are techniques for reclamation of empty pages in database tables. In response to receiving a plurality of records for insertion into a database table, the plurality of records are inserted into one or more contiguous pages. In response to at least some of the plurality of records being deleted from the database table, the one or more contiguous pages are reclaimed by: relocating any records from the plurality of records remaining in the one or more contiguous pages and releasing the one or more contiguous pages.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a safety belt clip (1) that is adapted to be coupled to a seat base (110) of a child safety seat (100) and to engage with a lap portion (10a) of a safety belt (10). The safety belt clip (1) comprises a guiding element (2) comprising an engaging element (2a) and a positioning component (2b). The positioning component (2b) is adapted to position the engaging element (2a) at a distance from the seat base (110) and the engaging element (2a) is adapted to engage with the lap portion (10a) of the safety belt (10). Furthermore, the guiding element (2) is configured to drive the lap portion (10a) of the safety belt (10) towards the pelvic region (230) of an occupant (200) secured in the child safety seat (100) with the safety belt (10).

Abstract: A cleaning section for an electric oral hygiene device is disclosed. The cleaning section includes at least a first carrier mounted for driven rotation or oscillating rotation around a rotation axis; and at least a plurality of first cleaning elements mounted on the first carrier with their bases arranged on the vertices of a first star-shaped polygon around the rotation axis. All of the first cleaning elements are inclined in a circumferential direction such that the free end of each of the first cleaning elements is farther away in the circumferential direction than the base of the respective first cleaning element; and wherein at least one cleaning element property alternates between adjacent first cleaning elements or between clusters of first cleaning elements.
