Abstract: A dispenser drain attachment includes a threaded cap having a tapered drain socket and an associated drain tube. The interior of the drain tube has a double diaphragm which seals the drain tube, as well as an elastic gas bellows for dispensing liquid portions by alternating deformation of the diaphragm disks of the double diaphragm, which acts as a one-way valve. Such deformation is the result of pressure conditions which change when the gas bellows is compressed and then again released. The dispenser drain attachment is assembled from only two one-piece structural parts, each of which is produced by a two-component injection molding procedure.

Abstract: A disposable self-opener apparatus for opening a tubular bag cartridge and squeezing a pasty composition therefrom includes a conical tube shoulder having an orifice, with the conical tube shoulder, preferably, made by a plastic injection molding procedure. A self-opener device is able to be screwed with the screw cap for joining the self-opener device with said one end of a tube portion of the conical tube shoulder. The self-opener device has gable-shaped pairs of cutting edges on an inner side thereof with the peaks of the gable-shaped pairs of cutting edges pointing in the direction of screwing. A retainer basket for receiving a metal clip of a tubular bag cartridge to be opened is centrally located on the inner side of the self-opener device, so that the metal clip does not enter a nozzle attached to the orifice of the conical tube shoulder for dispensing the pasty composition, thereby preventing the metal clip from obstructing the flow of the pasty composition through the nozzle.

Abstract: A plastic container having a storage chamber which graduates from a shoulder section into a bottle neck, in such a way that the length of the bottle neck can be changed about its axis. Thus, this invention provides a constriction between the shoulder section and a pour-out area. The constriction is adjacent the shoulder section and is followed by an area which can be axially compressed. The constriction can serve as a sealing area. Liquid, free-flowing and pourable media can be discharged in doses using a metering element which is fixed to the top of the bottle neck and which penetrates the constriction. By exerting pressure on the metering element, it is possible to establish an open or closed connection between the metering element and the storage chamber of the plastic container.

Abstract: A pouring device for two individual, mutually connected containers include in each case a sealing bung on each container neck. The sealing bung has a pouring outlet and an incoming air orifice. Pouring elements, which each includes a chamber, are disposed above the sealing bung. A pouring orifice and an incoming air orifice issue into each chamber. A single connection line leads off from the chamber to a corresponding pouring outlet. The pouring elements can be attached to the container necks. A cover is placed over the pouring element and includes a thread bung onto which it is possible to screw a threaded over including a sealing part mounted therein.

Abstract: A dosing bottle made in one piece from plastic using a blow molding or an injection molding method. With at least one mash seam or a constriction in the bottle walls, a separate dosing chamber with an opening passing through to an inside of the bottle is formed at a bottom of the bottle. The dosing chamber communicates with an outlet tube which runs through the inside of the bottle to an opening in such a manner that whenever the bottle is tipped forwards by 90° to 180° from its upright position into a pouring position, only the liquid in dosing chamber can be poured out of the bottle.

Abstract: A single-piece plastic lid, having a lower part and a cap. The cap is connected to the lower part via a hinge. The lid has a guarantee strip to ensure that the lid cannot be opened unnoticed and that the lid cannot be removed from the container without damaging the guarantee strip. Thus, the guarantee strip has additional elements which enable a positive fit with both the lower part and the neck of the container. Corresponding positive fit elements are also provided on the container neck, for example in the form of snap-in elements.

Abstract: Permanently or detachably mounted on a container (1) is a dosing and metering device that contains a pressure bellows (3), through which a valve-plate holder (8) passes. The valve-plate holder (8) essentially has the shape of a hollow cylinder and exhibits gaps or lateral openings (18), to enable communicating contact between pressure bellows (3) and container (1). The valve-plate holder (8) is arranged in a transition zone between pressure bellows (3) and container (1), in a fixed position relative to the container or container neck. The valve plate (7) attached to the end of the valve-plate holder (8) forms a valve seat (4) together with the constriction (31) between pressure bellows (3) and the metering chamber (5) that follows it. Axial pressure upon the metering chamber (5) allows the metering chamber to be entirely or partly filled or drained back into the container, as desired, in which case the contents of the metering chamber can be poured out when the cap is removed.

Abstract: A device for pressing of tablets from a blister pack. The device has a base plate and a cover plate. When closed, the two plates connected to each other by a hinge are superimposed in such a manner that openings in the cover plate are arranged substantially over openings in the base plate. The base plate is arranged using fins at a distance from a datum plane. Supporting bumps and embossed edges form a support plane on which the blister pack rests with the cover film thereof, for facilitating punching through the cover film when pressure is exerted on bumps of the deep-drawn plastic film of the blister pack. Tabs with corresponding locking noses lock the device. The device also allows disabled patients to remove the tablets required from the blister pack without further assistance.

Abstract: The surgical clip (1) with an approximate C-shaped cross-section has two lateral jaws (10) interconnected by a web (12). The two jaws (10) end in pressure edges (11) which thus define a clamping gap (15). There is a centric recess (13) perpendicular to the direction of the two pressure edges (1) roughly in the middle, passing through the web (12) on the one hand and partly through the two jaws (10) below it. This design makes it possible to stack the surgical clips of the invention and secure them on a storage unit. This makes it possible for the first time to apply surgical clips in rapid sequence by means of a simple fitting device. There are inwardly directed retaining ribs (17) on the inner surfaces (16) of the jaws (10) to position the clips on the storage unit.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for positioning skin clips which consists of a housing (1) made from two half-shells (10, 11), for example. The housing (1) accommodates a magazine (2) comprising two strips (20) and resilient retaining plates (21) secured thereto. Arranged in the center between the latter is a rod-shaped delivery device (3) which can be moved up and down by means of an actuating lever (5) co-operating with a restoring spring (6). The skin clips (4) are arranged in a row on the rod-shaped delivery device (3) and are prevented by saw-teeth (30) thereon from sliding upwards on the delivery device (3) as it moves downwards. At the same time, the resilient retaining plates (21) ensure that the spring clips remain in position when the rod-shaped delivery device (3) moves upwards. The rod-shaped delivery device (3) comprises at its end a widening (31) by means of which the lowermost skin clip is held spread apart before it is stripped off.

Abstract: The invention concerns a spring scale with two tubular housing parts enclosing a spring, which can be slid within one another telescopically, with play, but which are unable to rotate due to their cross-sectional shape.

Abstract: A metering cap in which a first component of a flowable material is squeezed out of a cartridge (C) which can be emptied by means of a press (P). The main component flows through a feed line (8) to an outlet line (11) and, in the process, drives two rotors (31) seated in a metering chamber (9) in a housing (1). Gear wheels (34) are seated on the shafts (30) of the rotors (31), which mesh with each other and, in this way, form a gear pump (24). The gear pump (24) conveys an admixing component from an integrated container (18) through a second feed line (23) into the outlet line (11). At least two components can be admixed in a metered manner in an extremely exact ratio to each other by the metering cap of this invention.

Abstract: A rotatable central sealing pin cap having a stationary part and a detachable pouring screw cap, each with engagable threads, an axial stop and a twist stop. A plurality of pre-assembly positions or intermediate positions can be defined. A twist stop is provided that limits rotational motion of the detachable pouring screw cap with respect to the stationary part beyond the completely open and the completely closed positions. At the same time, the detachable pouring screw cap is sealed to the stationary part to prevent an undesired backflow into the threaded region.

Abstract: A one-piece plastic closure for fastening on a container having a lower part with a top surface which forms a pouring opening, and a cap pivotably connected to the lower part by a hinge shaft. A security element is connected to the closure such that, during initial opening of the closure, the security element is transformed from a secured state to a visually recognizable state of use.

Abstract: A plastic closure having a lower part attachable to a container, and a cap which is connected with the lower part by a main film hinge. A spring element engages the lower part and the cap, and also bridges an axis of rotation of the main film hinge and thus generates a snap effect. The main film hinge extends continuously through an area in which the main film hinge is bridged by the spring element. In a closed state of the plastic closure, each spring element is hidden completely within the closed closure.

The inner side has a plurality of inner grooves which are spaced and preferably positioned approximately parallel with respect to each other. The outer side has a plurality of outer grooves which are spaced and preferably positioned approximately parallel with respect to each other. An inner land is positioned between two adjacent inner grooves and an outer land is positioned between two adjacent outer grooves.

Abstract: A one-piece snap hinge closure of plastic having a lower part and an upper part connected with each other via a film hinge. The intactness of the closure is assured by a security band. The security band is injection-molded to the upper part via bars which are used as predetermined breaking points. A bar on the lower part is engaged with the security band. The bar on the lower part can be placed in such a way that in the security position of the closure it is attached behind a tab on the upper part.

Abstract: A plastic closure comprising a base part fixed on a container and a cap connected to said base part in one piece by a hinge. A gripping area is disposed diametrically opposite said hinge and is at least partially covered by a security element disposed on said base part. Securing means are provided on one part of said closure and on said security element, said securing means forming an interlocking connection prior to the first opening of the closure. The securing means comprise interlocking means disposed on the security element and directed toward the casing wall of the cap, which fit interlockingly with at least one corresponding recess in the cap aligned therewith.

Abstract: A plastic snap hinge closure having tension elements disposed on a plastic closure including a lower part and an upper part which are connected with each other via a main hinge A desired snap effect is achieved by means of lengths of the tension elements which can be changed by the action of a pull. The tension elements extend in planes between the attachment points. Each tension element has partial sections which cause the change in length. The partial sections are either C-shaped, U-shaped, or O-shaped. The tension elements permit a maximum percentage change of length of each tension element of approximately 10% to 50%.

Abstract: The closure consists of a lower part (1) and a cap (2), which are connected to each other by at least one film hinge (3). Spring elements (4) integrally formed from the jacket walls of the two closure parts are disposed on both sides of the film hinge (3). The thickness of the spring elements (4) varies between the shoulder points (5) of the spring elements. In the area of the shoulder points the thickness is approximately the same as the wall thickness of the jacket walls, and in the center, that is, in the area extending over the plane of separation, it is considerably less. The variation of the wall thickness permits a customer-specific adaptation of the snap action of the closure without having to make it in a completely new way every time.
