Abstract: The invention relates to a floor stand for an optical detection device, having a foot part comprising multiple bearing points or a planar standing surface that span a base plane, having a first stand arm which is pivotably connected to the foot part by a first joint on the foot part, and which is connected to a second stand arm by a second joint remote from the foot part, wherein the length of the first stand arm is dimensioned such that the distance between the base plane and the second joint is smaller than the sum of the maximum value for the eye level when seated and the maximum value for the length of the lower leg including the foot when the first stand arm is aligned at 45 degrees in relation to the base plane.

Abstract: A drum-type fabric dyeing machine has its drum subdivided into sections by radial partitions. The partitions are connected to the drum wall by narrow perforated strips through which the dyeing liquor is discharged. The drum wall and the partition are unperforated. The partitions are connected to a perforated pipe at the center of the drum through which the dyeing liquor is introduced.
