Abstract: A method includes: providing an absorber material including: a casing; and superabsorbent particles arranged therein, and using the absorber material to absorb and/or distribute liquids in an actively and/or passively cooled current-carrying system including an actively and/or passively cooled power storage system. The casing has at least two plies arranged in a planar fashion on one another. Regions of the at least two plies are connected to one another by at least one seam such that the casing is segmented in a form of pockets separated from one another. At least some of the pockets have the superabsorbent particles.

Abstract: A bucket assembly for use with a mop includes inner and outer bucket assemblies including first and second reservoirs, respectively. The inner bucket assembly includes a rinse bucket, fluid connection and closure element between the rinse bucket and the first reservoir. The first reservoir is optionally otherwise sealed when the at least one closure element is in the open position. The inner bucket is disposed at least partially within the second reservoir. A drainage channel fluidly connected to the second reservoir is formed by at least one of the inner bucket assembly and/or the outer bucket assembly.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a dirt ingress seal (100) for shock absorbers and front forks. The dirt ingress seal comprising a first lip (102a) that isolates the internal space of the seal (100) from the atmosphere and external environment; first ribs (105a) formed on the inner side of the circumferential surface of the dirt ingress seal (100), the first ribs (105a) formed near the first lip (102a); a second lip (102b) provided on the inner circumferential portion near the central region of the dirt ingress seal (100); second ribs (105b) defining cavities; and cavities defined by the first ribs (105a). The cavities are configured to arrest and trap mud, dust, dirt, and particulate matter entering the sealed zone and preventing further ingress of abrasive particles into the seal zone. The seal (100) increases the sealing effectiveness and useful life of seals, shock absorber, and front forks.

Abstract: A sealing ring is provided for use, e.g., in boring machines or wind turbines, among other intended uses. The sealing ring includes an axial leg and a sealing leg with a sealing lip. The sealing leg is connected to a first end face of the axial leg by means of a joint. The sealing ring further includes a tensioning element for stabilizing the sealing leg in the radial direction. The tensioning element is annular and formed by a spring connected to the sealing leg.

Abstract: A dermal patch includes: an open-cell foam layer; and an adhesive layer arranged thereon and intended for contact with skin. At least a side of the foam layer facing the adhesive layer has macropores whose cavities are spanned at least partially by a barrier layer formed from the foam layer.

Abstract: A flexible laminate for shielding against electromagnetic radiation includes: a) at least one metal foil; and b) a sheet-like substrate made of a fiber material, film material, or foam material. The laminate includes a plurality of objects formed by incisions into a base area of the laminate. Each object of the plurality of objects is made of two or more incisions having a common initial point. The two or more incisions, or each of two adjacent incisions of the two or more decisions, define an angle of 45° to 160°.
