  • Patent number: 10750833
    Abstract: A suitcase for stacking with a further suitcase, comprising a contact surface for stacking the further suitcase, at least one coupling part which can be brought together with a matching coupling part of the further suitcase to form a plug-in connection, wherein the coupling part is aligned such that the plug-in connection to the matching coupling part is formed by displacing the further suitcase along the contact surface. At least one locking element is provided to secure the plug-in connection against being released, wherein the locking element can be displaced from an initial position to an intermediate or end position, and in the initial position is in a receiving region for the additional suitcase, which is used when placing the further suitcase on the contact surface. The invention further relates to an arrangement comprising at least two suitcases stacked one above the other and a method for stacking at least two suitcases.

  • Patent number: 4698188
    Abstract: The evaporation air humidifier comprises a housing consisting of an upper part (1) and a lower part (2) forming a water chamber (3). A drive unit (4) with a fan blade (5) is arranged on the upper part (1). An intermediate part (6) is located in the housing and floats on the water with its bottom surface lying on the water surface. The intermediate part (6) is guided by a slide pipe (19) and carries an evaporation mat (7), the lower end (17) of which is always submerged into the water tank (3) to the same length. The water is sucked through openings (15) into the evaporation mat (7), and humidifies the stream of air which passes therethrough in the direction of arrows (30, 31) and is discharged through the outlet openings (9).
