Abstract: An earplug dispensing system (10), comprising an earplug dispenser (11) and a support plate (12), wherein the dispenser (11) comprises a container (13) for earplugs, a dispensing mechanism having a dispensing aperture (14) and a movable element operably arranged for selectively dispensing earplugs from the container (13) through the aperture (14), and a control device (15) for operating the dispensing mechanism, wherein the support plate (12) on a front side (17) is provided with the earplug dispenser (11) and on a back side (19) is provided with one or more fastening devices (20) for fastening the support plate (12) to a vertical surface. The fastening devices (20) comprise a permanent magnet (21) for fastening the system to the vertical surface, wherein the magnet (21) has a back side provided with a friction-increasing material (22) for preventing the earplug dispensing system (10) from displacement in a plane of the vertical surface.

Abstract: Method and arrangement for providing a front assembly of a heavy vehicle (1), which front assembly interacts with a front portion of a longitudinal frame (10) of a vehicle, and in which there is included an underrun protection that has a stiff, force-absorbing beam structure (5). The beam structure (5) is equipped with at least a first fastening member (18) which is arranged to interact with at least one second fastening member (20) arranged at the front frame part of the vehicle (1), with the first and the second fastening members being arranged, during assembly, to guide the beam structure (5) to a predetermined non-adjustable position on the frame essentially across the longitudinal direction of the frame (10). The beam structure is arranged to support at least some other components arranged at the vehicle front such as footsteps (6), headlight units (7) and panels (8) at predetermined non-adjustable positions, with the beam structure and the supported components together forming a front module (3).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an integrated earplug, including the steps of injecting in a multimaterial-injection moulding machine an elongate core or body part of a thermoplastic elastomeric material which has a relatively high hardness, and an outer sealing part essentially enclosing the core or body part, at least partially, and made of a thermoplastic elastomeric material which has a relatively lower hardness. The material of the outer sealing part is softer than the material of the core or body part and has a Shore A Durometer hardness of less than about 10.
