Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrochemical cell composed of a laminate of two electrode structures in the form of current collectors coated with electrode material interposed electrolyte structures. The laminate is wound in a coil, and in at least the initial turn and the final turn, one of the current collectors has a protruding part extending beyond at least one of the edges of the other current collector in the same turn and in the following or previous turn, respectively, and the first current collector has a protruding part extending beyond one of the edges of the second collector foil, the protruding parts of the current collectors along the first and the second edge, respectively, of the laminate are sealed to each other optionally with interposed insulating polymer material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a diaphragm pump for dispensing or metering purposes, for example for use in liquid soap dispensers. The pressure chamber (7) of the pump is defined by a fixed wall (6) and the diaphragm (1). A check-valve on the inlet side towards a storage vessel (11) forms a cylindrical flange (4) movable in a groove (5) and sealing against the outer surface thereof. Arranged in a spout (2) passing through the diaphragm is an oblique wall (3), which is slotted through a short distance around its periphery, thereby to form a seal against the suction of air into the pressure chamber (7). The diaphragm (1) is arranged to be compressed by a pressure body (9) provided on a lever (8).
