Abstract: A foam-forming assembly includes a housing having an air passage and a liquid passage, each ending in a mouth and being in communication with a dispensing passage having a dispensing opening, and a valve body which, in a rest position, covers the mouth of the liquid passage and the mouth of the air passage in a sealing manner in order to prevent a flow from the liquid passage and the air passage to the dispensing passage. During dispensing, the valve body opens the mouth of the liquid passage and the mouth of the air passage in order to allow mixing of air and liquid to take place in the dispensing passage. The mouth of the air passage is substantially annular, and the air passage includes a pressure balance chamber to divide the air pressure substantially equally over the substantially annular mouth.

Abstract: A device and method for removing the core of a plant. This device consists of a tubular part which does not form a completely round circle, but only extends over approximately 180° (i.e. semi-circular arch). This tubular part is provided with a cutting section at one free end, thus making it possible to remove a core part of a plant. On the opposite end, the device is provided with a cutting section which does form a complete continuous circle, thus making it possible to remove an entire core of a plant such as lettuce.
