Abstract: An assembly for handling a bone implant includes a transfer cap which can be snapped onto the implant, and an adapter which engages with the implant. The head of the implant has a polygonal socket, an outer implant shoulder, and a shoulder edge located beneath the shoulder, while the transfer cap has an elastic lip that snaps over the shoulder edge, and the adapter has a polygonal drive projection adapted to engage within the polygonal socket. The adapter also has a plug-type extension for attaching a screw-in instrument. When the transfer cap is snapped onto the implant and the adapter is inserted, the polygonal projection engages with the polygonal socket on the implant, while the plug-type extension of the adapter that projects through the transfer cap is located on the outside. The transfer cap and the adapter plugged therein are detachably connected to one another.

Abstract: A method for the application of liquid through viscid medium onto the surface of a pre-dried material web including the steps of applying a viscid medium to at least one side of the material web, routing the material web through a press nip and supporting the material web substantially without free draw.

Abstract: The invention proposes an arrangement for handling an implant (1) to be inserted into bone, with a transfer cap (2) which can be fitted onto the implant (1) in a releasable manner, and with an adapter (3) which engages on the implant (1) with a form fit. The implant head (10) is provided with an internal or external polygon (17), an outer implant shoulder (11), and a shoulder edge (110) located underneath the implant shoulder (11). The transfer cap (2) has a contact surface (25) complementary to the implant shoulder (11), and an elastic lip (26) engaging over the shoulder edge (110). The adapter (3) has a polygon (30) which is intended to engage in the polygon (17) on the implant (1). A plug-type extension (33) of the adapter (3) is used for attachment of a screwing-in instrument. When the transfer cap (2) is fitted on the implant (1) and the adapter (3) is plugged in, the polygon (30) of the latter comes into engagement with the polygon (17) on the implant (1).

Abstract: The torque wrench (1) comprises a torque instrument (10) which is known per se--in the present case a ratchet instrument--as well as a torque indicator (40) which can be attached thereto. The torque indicator (40) possesses a sleeve-shaped support (41) which can be pushed onto the handle (12) of the torque instrument (10) and on which a linearly elastic bending rod (51) is fastened. Upon operation, the force (F) is exerted upon the free end of the bending rod (51) and the torque generated is displayed on a graduation (48). At its very front the support (41) possesses a non-rotationally symmetrical insertion zone (42) which receives the transition region (121) of the handle (12) in a manner fixed against rotation. The principal advantages of the torque wrench (1) are its dismantlability and the combination possibilities. The display accuracy of the torque indicator (40) is checked using a special test device.
