Abstract: The present invention relates to a trolley (10) for a medical waste container (12) for use in a medical treatment facility such as an operating theatre or other hospital or medical environment. The invention also relates to a cart (100) for transporting a collection of the medical waste containers (12) throughout the medical treatment facility.

Abstract: A drive belt (20) flexible in the circumferential direction for the transmission of mechanical power between two rotating pulleys (1, 2), is provided with a tension element (31) and with a number of transverse elements (40) which are provided on the tension element and have two largely axially directed, mutually radially outwardly diverging side faces (23) intended for frictional contact with the pulleys (1, 2). The tension element (31) here includes a flat, thin ring which is self-contained in the circumferential direction of the drive belt (20).

Abstract: A metal push belt (1) for application in a continuous variable transmission, includes at least one endless tensile member (2), and transverse elements being provided freely moveable in the endless direction of the tensile member (2). The tensile member is produced of steel, containing non-metallic inclusions of predetermined sizes as observed in the micro-structure of a material section, in accordance with a specified diameter Dcircle of a circle relating to the surface occupation of such an inclusion observed in such micro structure, in which the steel is produced in a constitution having a nominal inclusion size distribution with diameters ranging up to 30 ?m, the inclusion diameter range between 10 ?m and 30 ?m being less than 20% of the total number of inclusions per square unit of sliced material counted by inclusions having a size larger than 2 ?m.

Abstract: A drive belt (1) includes at least one continuous band (22) engaged with a number of (plate-like) transverse elements (30) such that the elements (30) may slide freely along a longitudinal direction (L) of the continuous band (22), whereby the elements (30) are provided with a taper (31) allowing mutual rotation of adjacent transverse elements (30) about a transversely oriented axis (32) thereby defining a minimum radius of curvature (RMIN) at which the drive belt (1) may be bent in its longitudinal direction (L) and whereby the continuous band (22) is provided with an internal residual stress distribution conforming to a longitudinally bent posture having a pre-bending radius (RPB), characterized in that, the pre-bending radius (RPB) of the at least one continuous band (22) is considerably larger than twice the minimum radius of curvature (RMIN).
