Abstract: An apparatus (10) for holding a collecting container (20) of low stiffness for collecting and packaging re-usable packages for filter tow, has erectable side parts (1) to (6), fastening strips (30) connected with the side parts (1 to 6) for fastening the collecting container (20) on the erected side parts (1 to 6); the side parts (1, 2, 6; 3, 4, 5) are divided into two groups (A) and (B) with the side parts (1, 2, 6) and (3, 4, 5) in each of the groups (A),(B) connected so as to be hinged, and the side parts (1, 2, 6) and (3, 4, 5) in the groups (A),(B) are connected so as to be hinged. The side parts (2, 3) and (5, 6) of the groups (A),(B) are foldable toward the outside away from the collecting container (20) so that the collecting container (20) can be removed from the apparatus (10) laterally or at the front face.

Abstract: A high-voltage distributor for ignition systems of internal combustion engines has a distributor cap of insulating material with a center electrode and several fixed electrodes which is placed on a distributor housing containing a distributor rotor, or cylinder head. The distributor rotor rotating synchronously with the camshaft of the internal combustion engine establishes an electric connection between the center electrode and the fixed electrodes via a rotor electrode. To establish contact with the distributor rotor, the center electrode has an axially displaceable carbon pin which rests in a cylindrical guide in the distributor cap and rests against the rotor electrode under the action of a compression spring.
