  • Patent number: 11098525
    Abstract: The invention relates to a profiled arrangement (1) particularly for a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10), comprising at least one base (8), at least one securing arrangement (2), at least one sealing arrangement (3) and at least one profiled element (5), characterised in that at least one free end (51) of the profiled element (5) is arranged on the sealing arrangement (3), and that at least one additional free end (52) of the profiled element (5) is connected to the base (8) by means of at least one movement arrangement (4) that at least partially projects into the sealing arrangement (3), said movement arrangement comprising two movement sections (40, 41) arranged approximately opposite one another. The invention also relates to a closing element (20) for a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10) having such a profiled arrangement (1), and to a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10) comprising such a profiled arrangement (1).

  • Patent number: 4521076
    Abstract: A transmitted-light illuminating device (FIG. 1) for microscopes consists of a condenser (1), an iris-aperture diaphragm (2) and a turret (3). The turret permits interchangeable mounting of auxiliary lenses (4) or diaphragms (5) by means of which large-object fields can be illuminated, if desired; alternatively, the microscope can be used in phase contrast. Condenser, diaphragm and turret are combined into a unit in which the turret is functionally coupled to the iris diaphragm. For this purpose, the index shaft of the turret (3) is eccentrically mounted to the actuating ring (9) of the diaphragm (2), the ring is configurated for detent engagement to retain the newly indexed turret station in axial register with the optical axis of the condenser. Thus, rotation of the turret first drives the actuating ring (9) against its diaphragm stop to thereby open the diaphragm before there is any indexing movement of the turret, from one to its next indexed position.
