  • Patent number: 11167783
    Abstract: An operating head for an industrial truck comprises a support extending along a longitudinal axis and comprising opposing carrier sections. One or more gripping sections are positioned opposite each of the opposing carrier sections, wherein the opposing carrier sections and gripping sections at least partially define a handle opening. The operating head further comprises at least one operating element positioned on at least one of the opposing carrier sections. The at least one operating element comprises a cylindrical body extending along a cylindrical body axis and defining a bulge extending radially from the cylindrical body along a bulge axis. The bulge extends towards the one or more gripping sections when the at least one operating element is in a rest position and the at least one operating element is pivotable about the cylindrical body axis by exerting a force against the bulge.

  • Publication number: 20190016027
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an injection-molded part, the injection-molded part being a plastic cylinder for a needle-free syringe. The cylinder has an opening. The invention further relates to an injection-molding tool for producing the cylinder, the injection molded tool including an outer mold component and an inner mold component, which together define a clearance which determine the injection-molded part and the cylinder. The outer mold component and the inner mold component are designed such that the clearance is formed without an obstacle for plastic between the outer mold component and the inner mold component.

  • Patent number: 8828039
    Abstract: The invention relates to a pricking device (1) for taking a blood sample, comprising a movable holding device (5) for pricking means (4), means (12) for driving the movable holding device and a release device (19) for releasing the pricking movement (13) of the pricking means. When the release device has been manually actuated, the movable holding device can be axially moved by a spring force of a drive spring (9) of the drive means (12), and a tensing device (22) for tensing the drive spring. Said tensing device comprises a tensing mechanism (23) comprising means (24) for axially stopping the movable holding device during the tensing of the drive spring and means (25) for working during the tensing of the drive spring enabling said pricking device to be comfortable to use even when being used several times.

  • Publication number: 20120095487
    Abstract: The invention relates to a blood lancet apparatus with a base member for the arrangement of a plurality of apparatus components. The base member comprises for example a lancet-receiving device for coupling the blood lancet apparatus to a lancet element, at least one spring element for acting upon the lancet-receiving device with spring force and an actuating element for initiating a movement of the lancet-receiving device. The coupling between the lancet-receiving device and the lancet element is capable of being altered by means of a fixing and/or dispensing device. According to the invention the lancet-receiving device is capable of being deformed by means of a movement of the fixing and/or dispensing device in the longitudinal direction of the lancet-receiving device and by means of an engagement of the fixing and/or dispensing device in at least one recess in the lancet-receiving device.
