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: A device (10) for hearing protection, comprising an elongated stem (11) and a grip part (12), wherein the stem (11) comprises a connecting portion (14) for connection with the grip part (12), an attachment portion (15) for attachment to an earplug (13) projecting radially to the stem (11) and being arranged for insertion into an ear canal (25), and an intermediate portion (16) arranged between the connecting portion (14) and the attachment portion (15). The stem (11) comprises a first curve (21) arranged between the connecting portion (14) and the intermediate portion (16) and a second curve (22) arranged between the attachment portion (15) and the intermediate portion (16), wherein the intermediate portion (16) is arranged in a first angle (?) to the connecting portion (14) and a second angle (?) to the attachment portion (15).

Abstract: In a hearing protection earplug made of foamed material, provision is made in order to attain a defined attenuation and avoid annoyances caused by self-generated sounds, that the surface of the hearing protection earplug has hollows in the area of the inner end face. The hearing protection earplug includes a main body having a central center longitudinal axis and in the direction of this central center longitudinal axis an axially inner end face and an axially outer end face. In the area of the inner end face, surface area enlarging inner hollows are provided, one of which, in the form of an inner central longitudinal hollow, extends inward longitudinally relative to the center longitudinal axis, starting from the inner end face. Also provided is an outer central longitudinal hollow that extends inward longitudinally relative to the center longitudinal axis, starting from the outer end face.

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: The present invention relates to an earplug with a through duct, in which a membrane element is adapted and comprises a membrane holder and a membrane held thereby which is adapted to lock the membrane element. The invention also relates to a method of making such an earplug and a method of affecting the course of the attenuation curve of an earplug.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an earplug dispenser. The dispenser comprises a container for keeping earplugs, said container being provided with means for dispensing earplugs from the container. The dispenser has substantially the general shape of an earplug.

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.
