Abstract: In an inoculating apparatus between the inoculating unit and the actuating unit a quick coupling mechanism is inserted. The inoculating device itself becomes actuated by means of a siphon-cartridge via a valve performing a triple function.The structure ensures the discharge of the carbonic acid gas quantity required for operation through the bore of the piston, simultaneously it prevents further outflow of the carbonic acid gas from the cartridge after work performance.

Abstract: A logic toy for distinctive indication of bordering zones on a surface, especially existing administrative districts, such as countries, facilitating herewith the development of logic way of thinking and depth perception together with the memorization of colored vision or other kind of signalling. The body of the logic toy is for example a parallelepiped, a sphere or globe or the like, the surface thereof is divided into separated zones, whereby the body is provided with built-in signalling means for displaying a signal simultaneously for each separated zone. Comparing the logic toy according to the invention to the known logic toys, such as the magic cube or the like, it means in each occasion a new logic task to be solved, therefore the playing can not become a routine work. Furthermore, a given task can be solved in different ways, and the tasks can be made gradually more and more complicated.
