Abstract: The disclosure relates to a rinsing apparatus for connection to an application-agent main channel of an application-agent changeover unit and preferably for the continuous inflow of a rinsing agent into a flow of rinsing air, having a main line for transporting rinsing air and having a rinsing-agent line for transporting a rinsing agent. The rinsing apparatus is distinguished in particular in that the rinsing-agent line opens out into the main line by way of a mouth opening in order to generate a preferable y continuous flow of a rinsing-air/rinsing-agent mixture for introduction into the application-agent main channel. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding rinsing method.

Abstract: An entry rail, which can be arranged in an entry region of a vehicle door of a vehicle, includes a display unit for displaying text, images and/or videos is integrated into the entry rail. A display surface of the display unit is visible for a user when the vehicle door is open.
