Abstract: A work vehicle (1) comprises a mobile frame with a main shaft (2) and a set of support arms adjustable between a lateral operative position, in which the support arms extend laterally of the frame on either side of the main shaft, and an at least partially upward oriented transport position. The support arms have a plurality of mutually pivotable support arm parts which support work modules (11A . . . 11F) placed at a regular distance from each other in order to thereby perform work on a ground surface in the operative position. In the operative position a center of a first of the support arms is situated on a first side of the main shaft at a lateral distance from the main shaft, and in the operative position a center of a second of the support arms is situated on an opposite second side of the main shaft at a lateral distance from the main shaft.

Abstract: Techniques of transporting bath sponges involve holding a used bath sponge in a case that will carry and compress the used bath sponge. Such a case separates the soiled water and debris that is drained from the used bath sponge. The case is designed to facilitate the drainage of water and debris that have accumulated in the bath sponge after it is used. The action of compression of a bath sponge within this case will also help to maintain the original shape of the bath sponge. This case will keep all water and debris that has collected by the action of compression of the bath sponge contained in the lower sections of the case. In addition, when this case is stored in an upright position, the water and debris will not be able to flow back into the top section where the sponge is being stored.

Abstract: An inline intravenous (IV) fluid sterilization system can be located within directly upstream of the patient's access point, downstream of any breach points, so as to ensure fluid sterility. The chamber space between the walls is accessed by a fluid inlet port and a fluid outlet port between which the fluid flows. The inlet port is connected to a conduit/tubing from the fluid source and the outlet port is interconnected with a conduit/tubing that is free of breach points and interconnects to the patient access point. The inner wall allows for transmission of UV light into the fluid space. The walls define a space therebetween that is relatively small radially, allowing for a sufficient flow rate, but providing a large surface area and small fluid depth for exposure to the UV light. The UV light is provided by an elongated lamp within a cavity of the inner wall.
