Abstract: The invention relates to a transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) for delivering pharmaceutical active ingredients. The TTS includes a cover layer and at least one active-ingredient-containing carrier material. At least one retaining element is located between the active-ingredient-containing carrier material and the cover layer, with the retaining element fixing the active-ingredient-containing carrier material onto the cover layer. The invention further relates to a method for fastening an active-ingredient-containing carrier material to a cover layer of a TTS in the presence of hook-and-loop strip segments and the use of a hook-and-loop strip in transdermal or iontophoretic administration of pharmaceutical or therapeutic active ingredients to patients.

Abstract: A filter bag is longitudinally formed with at least a portion of the filter bag formed in a frusto-conical shape. The filter bag has a plurality of radially extending members that form a propeller shaped cross-section. A lower, frusto conically shaped lower portion balloon or billows during a reverse air cycle enhances dust fall from the exterior for cleaning. A manifold having multiple openings is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method collates multiple-layer brochures containing a plurality of n signatures having a gathering and stitching machine. Here, in a first step, the depositing of a first signature takes place by a first feeder into a first transport segment and, in a second step, the depositing of a second signature takes place by a second feeder into a second transport segment. Correspondingly further depositing of further signatures can take place by further feeders into further transport segments. Finally, depositing of an n-th signature takes place by an n-th feeder into an n-th transport segment. The signatures which are deposited on a gathering element in this way are transported through the stitching station and the trimming station and are delivered in the delivery station. A gathering and stitching machine performs the method and has a control unit which has a machine program for collating multiple-layer brochures having a plurality of n signatures.

Abstract: A process for introducing a plurality of segregated sheet-like administration forms into a dispenser under formation of a multilayered stack for individually dosable removal, with sheet-like tapes wound-up on rolls being present as starting material, utilizes the following steps. In a first step, a number of sheet-like layers of said tapes, which number corresponds to the stack, is simultaneously drawn from a plurality of rolls. In a further step, the individual tapes are united, using guide means, to form a multilayered strand, which in yet another step, is drawn forward to a cutting station where one length of stack is severed at a time, and wherein a length segment of the multilayered strand corresponding to the stack is substantially in the dispenser prior to being severed from a remainder of the multilayered strand by the cutting device.

Abstract: A process for dispensing pressure-sensitive adhesive laminates (3) or laminate sections from a movable primary (1) onto a movable secondary carrier band (2), the laminates (3), upon deflection of the primary band (1) around a dispenser edge (4), being detached and dispensed onto the secondary band (2), is characterized in that the primary band (1) is provided with at least one separation line or predetermined breaking line, thus subdividing it into at least two strips (5, 5?), and that the strips are individually drawn from separate sections (4?, 4?) of the dispenser edge (4).
