Abstract: A vessel attachment device includes a body, first and second attachment arms, a biasing member, and at least one line connection interface. At least one of the first attachment arm and the second attachment arm is movable relative to the body. The biasing member is configured to apply a biasing force at the at least one movable first and second attachment arm to bias the at least one movable first and second attachment arm to an open position. And, the biasing member is configured to selectively release the biasing force and apply an actuation force at the at least one movable first and second attachment arm to move the at least one movable first and second attachment arm from the open position to the closed position to attach the vessel attachment device to a vessel attachment point.

Abstract: A dispenser for a volatile substance, which contains a reservoir and two control elements. The first control element exerts a control function that is dependent on the substance characteristics of the volatile substance and the material characteristics of the constituents of said first control element. However, the second control element exerts a control function that is independent of the substance characteristics of the volatile substance and the material characteristics of the constituents of said first control element. The first control element is located between the reservoir and the second control element and is permeable to at least one volatile substance. The second control element consists of a material that is impermeable to the volatile substance and contains defined material cavities. Perfumes, crop protection agents, pheromones and repellents, which can be released in a controlled manner, constitute the volatile substances.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dispenser for a volatile substance (4), which contains a reservoir (1) and two control elements. The first control element (6) exerts a control function that is dependent on the substance characteristics of the volatile substance (4) and the material characteristics of the constituents of said first control element (6). However, the second control element (7) exerts a control function that is independent of the substance characteristics of the volatile substance (4) and the material characteristics of the constituents of said first control element (6). The first control element (6) is located between the reservoir (1) and the second control element (7) and is permeable to at least one volatile substance (4). The second control element (7) consists of a material that is impermeable to the volatile substance and contains defined material cavities (8).

Abstract: The invention relates to an insect trap consisting of a container that surrounds an inner chamber and comprises at least one opening and at least one carrier film provided with an adhesive layer that is accessible from the inner chamber. The carrier film forms a transparent window of the container at least in the vicinity of the adhesive layer. The invention provides a highly effective insect trap, consisting of a small number of different components. The trap is simple to assemble and install and the rate at which it becomes exhausted and needs replacing can be checked visually.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for catching flying insects, which comprises a planar support (1) with a first surface (top surface (2)) and a second surface (lower surface (3)). A layer (5) that contains a substance that attracts insects and/or to which insects stick is provided on at least one of said surfaces. The device further comprises a fastening device (4) by way of which it can be positioned on the application site (for example a window) during utilization in such a way that the surface coated with the substance that attracts insects and/or to which insects stick is in a substantially horizontal position.

Abstract: An insect trap is described which comprises an insect-attracting element and an insect-holding element, the insect-attracting element being a hologram, that is to say a material in the form of a film which contains the result of a holographic recording method. A cavity or an adhesive, advantageously in the form of an adhesive layer, may be used as the insect-holding element of the insect trap. The insect trap may also contain insecticides and attractants. The use of a hologram is particularly suitable for attraction of flying insect species such as the housefly, the Indian meal moth, the clothes moth, mosquitoes and the common wasp.
