Abstract: A liquid heating apparatus includes a top portion with a burner unit, a coil, an external housing, and an internal housing. The burner unit is arranged to burn a fuel so as to generate a downward directed flame. The coil includes first and second layers of windings. The internal housing is arranged within the external housing. The apparatus is in a substantially upright position during operation. A compartment between the internal housing and the external serves as a first liquid reservoir. The flame from the burner unit is peripherally contained by an inner part of the first layer of windings of the coil. The first layer of windings is configured to direct the flame or exhaust gases downwards.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a washing gun for instance for use with a high-pressure washer, where the washing gun essentially comprises a handgrip section (1) comprising a suitable trigger mechanism (12, 13) and furthermore comprising an inlet portion (3) for the washing fluid and a nozzle section (4) between which inlet portion (3) and nozzle section (4) there is provided a suitable valve contained in a valve house (2). The inlet portion (3) is coupled to the valve house (2) and the handgrip section (1) in such a manner that it can rotate 360 degrees about the longitudinal axis (X) through the valve house (2) and nozzle section (4). By these means it is thus possible during use of the washing gun to position the hose providing washing fluid to the fluid inlet (5) in the inlet portion (3) in an optimal manner relative to the user of the washing gun and to the object being treated.

Abstract: In a drive arrangement for driving a pump of the axial-piston type, of which solely the swash-plate member (8) is shown, from a motor (1), the main novel feature is that the motor shaft (9) is directly connected or connectable to the swash-plate member (8), thus eliminating problems caused by a previously used intermediate shaft between the motor shaft and the swash-plate member.
