Abstract: The invention concerns a device for the hanging of textiles, such as, for example, curtains, with a holding element, which can be fastened onto a fixed structure, a counterplate securely attached onto the holding element, a pressure plate fastened in a hinged manner onto the holding element, wherein the pressure plate with the counterplate forms a clip for purposes of securing the textiles, and with an electromagnet, which operates together with an armature plate so as to close the clip. A particularly low level of noise generation can be achieved by mounting the armature plate on the holding element and coupling it by means of an adjustable connecting element with the pressure plate, and by arranging the mounting of the armature plate on the holding element between the mounting of the pressure plate and the adjustable connecting element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a domestic a nutritional item such as e.g. a blender comprising a base uni covered by a lid (2). To allow for enhanced operator conven controlling the motor (22) is located on the lid (2). The lid sending control signals from the control panel (14) to the m receiver unit (10) located in the base unit (4). In preferred e used as transmitting medium for the control signals. pliance (1) for use in processing (4) with motor (22) and a jar (3) ence, the control panel (14) for encloses an emitter unit (5) for (22) in the base unit (4) via a bodiments, the jar (3) itself is used as transmitting medium for the control signals.

Abstract: To allow for starting and/or stopping an automatic scissor drive (6) during the cutting process according to the needs of the user, a push-button (19) is provided on one handle (4b) of a pair of scissors (1). When the cutting blades (3a,b) are closed by the user, such that an angle y is reached, the rubber block (14) pushes the push-button (19), thus starting a drive unit (6). In preferred embodiments, the drive unit (6) includes a motor (9) with an unbalance element (10) inducing vibrations in one of the blades (2a). The blades (2a,b) are coupled by the elastic rubber block (14), such that the scissors (1) act as an oscillating system. The relative movement of the oscillating blades allows to cut automatically.
