  • Patent number: 6360917
    Abstract: The invention relates to a canister comprising a first container (concentrate chamber) holding a concentrate, and a second container (solution chamber) holding a ready-to-use solution constituted by mixing a concentrate and a diluting fluid. According to the invention, the two containers of the canister are configured as chambers of the canister, connected to each other by a fluid jet pump, and can be operated from one side. Both the filling device of the concentrate chamber and the dispensing device of the chamber holding the ready-to-use solution are fitted with coded access control devices. The chambers are arranged partially above each other. The concentrate filling device and the fluid jet pump include a suction pipe and mixture outlet arranged in a canister lid.

  • Patent number: 4735228
    Abstract: A device for the preparation of a suspension from a supply of powdered, granular or block-form detergent by spraying water through nozzles into a water-permeable container accommodating the detergent material, provided with a hinged cover, at least one biasing means which pivots the sieve-like container as the cover opens from its horizontal in-use position toward the inside of the front wall of the housing, which is inclined outward in relation to the vertical housing axis, and at least one closure element which is arranged on the pivotal cover and which, as the cover pivots into its closed position, engages the container and turns it against the force of the biasing means into its horizontal in-use position, keeping it in that position.

  • Patent number: 4626786
    Abstract: This invention relates to an electrical measuring probe for determining the electrical conductivity of a liquid comprising a measuring zone extending longitudinally through the probe, through which the liquid to be measured flows and to which an electrical current is applied between electrodes, the electrodes having electrical leads remote from the liquid to be measured and those parts of the electrodes remote from the liquid to be measured forming a mechanically stabilizing and electrically conductive insertion or conductor frame of an electrically insulating sleeve which determines the shape of the probe. The insertion frame contains individual conductors in the sleeve distributed axially symmetrically in relation to the longitudinal axis of the probe, and the sleeve is made by injection-molding and consists of a chemically stable thermoplastic.
