Abstract: The invention relates to a pocket tool with a housing, a compartment region, pins (11a, 11b) and an implement (13) interchangeably mounted on one of the pins (11a, 11b) by means of a coupling mechanism (22) and which can be moved by means of a pivot bearing (18) between an inwardly pivoted transport position and an outwardly pivoted functional position, which is mounted against a spring element and can be moved relative to the pin (11a, 11b) into an uncoupling position and removed from the pocket tool. The coupling mechanism (22) has a guide track guiding the implement (13) in the uncoupling position at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis (68) of the housing (2) during its uncoupling movement along the compartment region.

Abstract: An illuminating means, including a radiation source for emitting electromagnetic radiation in the optical range, a support base, and an electrode arrangement with a first and at least a second electrode. The radiation source is disposed on the support base and connected by connecting wires to the electrode arrangement so as to be electrically conductive, and the radiation source is provided in the form of a first and at least a second semiconductor component. The first electrode is connected to the first semiconductor component via a first contact point, and the second electrode is connected to the second semiconductor component via a second contact point, so as to be electrically conductive. The distance of the first contact point from a center point or a line of symmetry of the support base is different from the distance of the second contact point from the center point or line of symmetry.
