Abstract: The invention concerns a dispensing apparatus (1) with high refrigerating power, for delivering to users refrigerating elements (10) capable of diffusing frigories over a relatively great lapse of time so as to avoid interrupting the cold chain, comprising an input and disinfecting module (2) arranged above the refrigerating and storage module (6). The input (4) and output (7) orifices of the refrigerating and storage module are located substantially in the same plane and in the upper part of the docule which further includes third transfer mechanism (9) designed to lift the refrigerating elements towards the output orifice.

Abstract: The invention concerns an automatic selective sorting device (10), for simultaneously loading, transporting and placing objects having very different characteristics in receiving containers, comprising a frame (11) bearing two toothed wheels (12, 13) arranged at each end of the frame (11), and whereon is stretched an endless conveyor (15). The loading mechanism consist of a line of conveyor belts (32) made up of a belt for manual insertion (32a) two accelerating belts (32b) and a belt for automatic insertion (32c). The acceleration belts (32b) are arranged respectively beneath two columns of a buffer storage and untiering system (33) which bring the objects to be sorted (8) and set them onto the acceleration belts which then place them on the automatic insertion belt (32c) to bring them onto the transporting mechanism.

Abstract: The invention concerns an adhesive bandage (10) comprising a support (11) with an adhesive surface (12), a sterile pad (13) arranged on the adhesive surface and a protective film covering the adhesive surface and the sterile pad, which is formed by a first (14) and a second (15) tearaway tab. The first tab (14) is folded back on itself along a folding line (16), outside the sterile pad zone, to define a first flap (17) applied on the adhesive surface from a first end of the support up to the folding line and covering entirely the sterile pad, and a second flap (18) forming a tearing lead for the first flap and extending over the first flap beyond the support first end. The second tab (15) comprises a third flap (19) applied on the adhesive surface from the second end of the support up to the folding line, and a fourth flap (20) forming a tearing lead for the third flap which extends over the first tab from the folding line beyond the support first end.

Abstract: An induction heating device which raises the temperature of a metal to be heated for one of melting or hot machining while providing considerably energy saving, increasing yield and observing current safety standards. The device (10) uses a cavity (11) to receive the metal to be heated and at least two magnetic yokes (13) arranged around a periphery of cavity (11), each yoke supporting an independent induction coil (14). The induction coils are mounted and wound in the same direction such that a north pole, of each coil, is located on one side of the cavity and a south pole is located on an opposite side of the cavity. The inductive coils are arranged so as to generate active non null magnetic field zones and inactive zones of null magnetic fields distributed about the periphery of the cavity. An inactive zone of null magnetic fields is located between each adjacent active non null magnetic field zone.
