  • Patent number: 6698770
    Abstract: In a cart and a carrier for medical equipment, the carrier has a bottom section and a back section and a pair of wheels and is arranged on an axle at the junction between the bottom section and the back section. The axle functions as a pivot axle and the back section as a lever for lifting the entire bottom section off the floor when the carrier is moved. Smooth and convenient interaction between the cart and carrier is achieved because the cart has a receiving part and a first locking part, and the carrier has a coupling arrangement and a second locking part. The coupling arrangement can be inserted into the receiving part and serves as a pivot axle for the carrier. The carrier locks to the cart when the second locking part is moved toward the first locking part when the carrier is lifted around the pivot axle.

  • Publication number: 20020037192
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for dividing a tubular flagpole. This is achieved by introducing into the flagpole an elongated body, which over at least part of its length has a geometric shape, which in concert with a complementary geometric shape inside the flagpole ensures that the flagpole can be cut and assembled in a way that guarantees the rectilinear continuity of the flagpole. The complementary geometric shape is formed in that, after the body is introduced into the flagpole, a filling material is injected so that the space between the flagpole and the elongated body is filled. The flagpole is then cut around the elongated body down to the outer surface of the body so that the said geometric shape allows the flagpole to be divided into two sections at the cutting side, the body remaining fixed to one of the sections.
