  • Patent number: 11596531
    Abstract: A prosthetic socket system comprising a prosthetic socket and a liner, said prosthetic socket having a distal end region, at least one socket wall extending therefrom in proximal direction, and connection means for securing a prosthetic component. The socket wall, when in the applied state, at least partially enclose a stump that is received in the prosthetic socket The liner includes a proximal entry opening and a lateral wall which extends in the distal direction, at least partially surrounds a stump when in the applied state and is arranged between the stump and the prosthetic socket when in the applied state. A coupling device is arranged between the liner and the prosthetic socket in the distal end region, and, on the outer side of the lateral wall of the liner and on the inner side of the socket wall, resistance regions are arranged or formed which interact with one another and which counteract a movement extracting said liner out of the prosthetic socket, in the proximal direction.

  • Publication number: 20200359822
    Abstract: A machine (1) for processing a liquid food substance (10) includes: a container (2) having an outside wall (2?) and In delimiting a food cavity (2?) for containing the food substance (10); an impeller (20) for driving the food substance (10) in the cavity (2?); a housing (3) having an outside wall and delimiting a powered cavity (3?) that is adjacent the container (2) and that contains a motor (30) for driving the impeller (20) and a thermal conditioner (40) for managing heat in the food cavity (2?); and a control unit (31) for controlling the impeller motor (30) and the thermal conditioner (40). The thermal conditioner (40) has different first and second sections (41,42) extending over different first and sections of the outside housing wall (3??). The first and second conditioner sections (41,42) are configured to generate different levels of thermal energy per cm2.

  • Publication number: 20200359841
    Abstract: A machine (1) for processing a liquid food substance (10) includes: a container (2) delimiting a food cavity (2?) for containing said liquid food substance (10); an impeller (20) for driving the food substance (10) in the food cavity (2?); a housing (3) delimiting a powered cavity (3?) that is adjacent the container (2). The powered cavity (3?) contains a motor (30) for driving the impeller (20) a heat evacuation system (35, 36, 37, 37?, 37?) for evacuating heat from the powered cavity (3?) to a space (6) outside such machine (1), comprising a motorized ventilation arrangement (35,36); and a control unit (31). The motorized ventilation arrangement has a first ventilation device (35) driven by the impeller motor (30).
