Abstract: The invention relates to a device for metered dispensing of a pasty mass, such as viscous soap, comprising a housing provided with—connecting means for connecting the device to an opening of a container for pasty mass,—a dispensing chamber for the pasty mass,—a connecting channel which connects the connecting means to the dispensing chamber,—a first valve means which is arranged in the connecting channel and which closes feed from the connecting channel to the connecting means,—a delivery channel connected to the dispensing chamber for the purpose of delivering a dispensed quantity of pasty mass,—a displacing means which is movable in the dispensing chamber and which has a first position in which the dispensing chamber has a first volume and which is movable counter to a spring force of a spring means to a second position in which the dispensing chamber has a second, smaller volume,—a second valve means which is adapted to close the connection from the delivery channel to the dispensing chamber when the displ

Abstract: Method and device for introducing a pipe into the ground. In order to restrict the drive power necessary to the greatest possible extent and to optimize the diameter of the pipe, it is proposed that the soil surrounding the pipe is displaced in the radial direction. To this end the pipe is provided with one or more displacement elements.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling the flow of an infusion fluid in an infusion system with a drip chamber and a deformable tube, is provided with a sensor for detecting the drops of infusion fluid falling in the drip chamber, means for seting a desired flow rate, pinch clamp means for pinching off the deformable tube and a processing unit for controlling the pinch clamp means is dependence of the set desired flow rate and the signal of the sensor. The pinch clamp means is movable with a variable speed between a rest position in which the tube is fully released, and a closed position in which the tube is fully closed. The speed in a controlling range preceding the closed position is substantially lower than the speed adjacent the rest position.

Abstract: A set up piece for drinking a liquid contained in a can which can is provided with a lid portion which can be torn away for obtaining an opening in the lid. The set up piece comprises a substantially cylindrical body portion which can be clamped onto the can in such a way that a liquid impervious closure is obtained. The cylindrical wall of the set up piece is connected to an inwardly running radial portion for contacting the lid of the can when the set up piece is mounted on said can.

Abstract: A collapsible, drawn freight car having a central longitudinal girder is disclosed. The central girder has a towing connection at its forward end and side girders pivotally connected to each side by pivotal arms. A transverse beam is fixed to the center girder and has lock bolts for engaging and locking the pivotal arms in a transport position.

Abstract: A tin opener mainly comprising a housing (1), a drive shaft (2) rotatably arranged in the housing (1) for a transport wheel (3) located outside the housing (1), a body (7) rotatably arranged about a second shaft (A--A) parallel to the driving shaft in the housing (1) for supporting a cutting wheel (1) rotatable about a third shaft, the third shaft being at an angle of the second shaft, wherein the body is provided with a radial slot (13) whereas a lug (6) moved by the driving shaft (2) in a circular path and being displaceable with respect thereto, is adapted to be, each time, introduced into a slot (13) through an angle in order to minimize the force required to penetrate into the tin, that is to cut into the tin cover at the beginning of the cutting cycle.

Abstract: A method is provided for making a foundation pile comprising a cylindrical tube (1) with one or more helically extending blades (14,15) at its lower end to which a hardening liquid is supplied that is conducted in such a manner that it penetrates the soil below the helical blade part or parts and along the tube wall (2) thereabove at 13. Said hardable liquid serves as means for removing the friction between pile and soil during screwing in the soil.
