Abstract: The invention relates to a multiple-chamber container (1, 1*) for storing and mixing a multi-component liquid coating or adhesive system (M), comprising a first chamber (10) for a first mixing component (B) and at least one other chamber (20) for another mixing component (H), the first chamber (10) and the at least one other chamber (20) being separated by at least one separating wall (30) in liquid-tight fashion and the separating wall (30) comprising a pierceable separating layer (40). The multiple-chamber container further comprises at least one piercing element (50) for piercing the pierceable separating layer (40) in such a way that the first and the one other mixing component (B, H) mix in the first or the at least one other chamber (10, 20). The multiple-chamber container (1, 1*) is characterized in that the at least one other chamber (20) is coaxial to the first chamber (10), the separating layer (40) being partially formed in the separating wall (30).

Abstract: An adapter for connecting a needle to a syringe barrel including a Luer Lock connector having a thread and a cone. The adapter includes: a first part configured to support the needle; a second part including a counter thread configured to form a screwing connection with the thread of the Luer Lock connector; and at least one deformable locking element arranged within a region of the counter thread and protruding radially beyond a minor outer diameter of the counter thread, such that the at least one deformable locking element is configured to be deformed by the thread of the Luer Lock connector when the adapter is screwed to the syringe barrel.

Abstract: A process for preparing a polyurethane polymer comprises the step of: I) mixing a first component (100) comprising a polyisocyanate with a second reactant component (200) comprising a compound having Zerewitinoff-active hydrogen atoms in a mixing vessel (300) to obtain a reaction mixture (400), wherein the first reactant component (100) and/or the second reactant component (200) are contacted with a catalyst bed (500) before they are mixed in the mixing vessel (300) and/or the reaction mixture (400) is contacted with a catalyst bed (500), wherein the catalyst bed (500) contains a catalyst reversibly sorbed on a substrate, the catalyst catalyses the reaction of isocyanate groups with themselves or with Zerewitinoff-active compounds and the catalyst is released into the first component (100), second component (200) or reaction mixture (400) that is in contact with the catalyst bed (500), such that a reaction mixture (410) containing the catalyst is obtained.

Abstract: A metering device for dispensing shaped cleaning-agent bodies into a washing chamber of a domestic dishwasher, comprising a reservoir, which is designed to hold a filling of the shaped cleaning-agent bodies and has a transfer opening in a region of the bottom of the reservoir, and a transport device for actively transporting the shaped cleaning-agent bodies from the transfer opening of the reservoir into the washing chamber. In addition, the metering device comprises a lifting device for raising the bottom of the reservoir at least in parts, wherein a discharge slant toward the transfer opening is produced at least in parts or the downgrade of an existing discharge slant is increased at least in parts by the raising of the bottom.

Abstract: A metering device for dispensing a cleaning-agent body from a reservoir into a washing chamber of a household dishwasher includes a cell wheel which is rotatably mounted in a cavity. The cell wheel includes a drive cylinder and a plurality of separating walls which are fastened to the drive cylinder to define a plurality of separate transport chambers for holding cleaning-agent bodies and transporting the cleaning-agent bodies from the reservoir into the washing chamber. Each separating wall is elastic at least in a partial area thereof and defined by a radial extent which is greater than a radial distance between a lateral surface of the drive cylinder and an inner wall of the cavity.
